Treasure hunts have been used on a small scale for the members of the Y M. c. A. on several occasions providing a good deal of interest The hunt planned for today will be far superior to any of the others, both in the value of the treasure and the interest of the directions and the country to be traversed.

 The directions as to how to reach the resting place of the treasure will be such as to call into play all the boys powers of observation. Each boy will have his own copy of the directions and his ability to follow instructions to the letter and observe landmarks quickly will determine whether he finds the treasure which will be a years membership in the Y. NJ. c. A. for non-menbers and years renewal in case some boy already a member is the fortunate onc The first prize gives membership entitling the boy to full privileges. The second prize will be membership giving limited priv iliges.
 Care has been taken to mark g route which can be traversed without incon- venience even though the weather Is bad.

The Teacher Shortage.

From Columbia, Warrensburg, and
other points comes the cry that teach
ers are quitting their profession and
going into a commercial life because
they can secure better pay. Conditions
are becoming acute, SO much so that
the Legislature is to be called upou for
remedy.
The natural solution of the problem
seems to be the consolidation OF many
rural schools. There are more rural
schools, paying small salaries, than
there is any need TO have in these days
Of easy transportation and good roads.
Locally the situation could be vastly
improved by bringing two or three
small districts into one and what is
true of Sarcoxie is true in general.
1t would be an easy matter to have
larger schools and better paid teachers
if two or three small districts would
consolidate. The small salaries paid to
three teachers in three poor schools
would make good salary for two
teachers in one good school. This is so
plain that it has only to be stated to
be believed, yet custom is so strong
and so hard to break that it is doubt
full whether any steps towards CONSOLE
dalton will be taken until some OF the
small districts find themselves without
teachers and unable to secure them.
The teacher shortage will not be an
unmiXed evil if it forces small rural
schools to combine into larger and bet
ter districts. transportation to and
from school can be solved by motors
and by good roads. 1t is easier now to
go ten miles TO school than it used to
be to go two or three, therefore argu.
ments formerly considered when con.
solidation was mentioned are no Longer
as potent rs they used to be- SarcoXiC

Five Good Reasons For Testing Corn
For Seed.

The average Missouri farm ha
twenty-five acres OF corn with an ap-
proXimate stand of 7219 per cent.
This means that on every Missouri
farm there are 5,S7 Stacker acres in
every twenty-five acres.
by termination test of every seed
ear a perfect stand as far as seed is
concerned can be had. Allowing 12I
per cent decrease for unavoidable losses,
wind, weather, and pests, a gain of
10 per cent of corn is still possible as a
result of testing.
This additional Is per cent Of corn
would mean approximately four and
ope-half bushels per acre. On the av-
egage farm this would mean 1l2 bushels
Individual tests are absolutely neces-
sarv to attain maximum production.
Those are the five reasons urged by
