FEW IDLE FARMERS in MISSOURI
Rush In Cities Is Minor Factor In
Soil Productivity.

The amount of land in the state of
Missouri that is lying idle because
of the rush of people to the cities is
almost negligible, according to E. A.
Logan of the U. s. Bureau of Crop
Estimates of Columbia. In the en-
tire state there are only about $780,
900 acres idle or about two acres to
the farm. Every year some land lies
idle, so the untitled soil in the state
now is probably not all idle because
Of the fact that there are too few peo-

GAS SERVICE In COLUMBIA

Columbia should have better facili-
ties for the manufacture and supply
ing of gas. The town is hampered by
the lack of facilities and residents are
rendered more or less uncomfortable
by it. Many a woman cooks over a
hot stove or puts up with the fumes
of a coal oil stove throughout the
summer because her house cannot be
equipped with gas.
Two reasons for the limitation of
the gas service are that on many
streets there are no gas mains and
that on other streets there are mains
too small to supply the houses that
are or might be connected with them.
The reason that more mains are not
put down or that those already down
are not replaced with larger ones is
that no one cares to invest enough
money in the plant for such improve
ments.
The plant belongs at present to the
estate of the late Sylvester Watts and
is in the hands of the Mississippi VAL
ley Trust Company, administrator or
the estate AS long as the plant re
mains the property of the estate it is
not likely that there will be any i'm
provement. The executives probably
feel that it is best to keep it up to
its present status rather than to
invest more in improvement. They
are not to be blamed in their stand
At the present rate of charge for gas
the plant is said to be paying only
about Is per cent on the investment
With the investment of few thou
sand dollars in extending the service
of the plant and thereby the inc 'me.
the overhead expenses could be re-
duced to such an extent thai tic plant
would make a good profit without
raising the price. Columbia let good
opportunity for an extended service
pass last winter when a Milwaukee
firm offered to buy the plant at $685.
900, provided the city would raise
$25,0OO for it's physical development.
The physical development was to have
to do with the extending Of service
more widely over the city and to
making general improvements in the
plant.
Another opportunity may offer for
the city or the citizens to 10 some
thing about purchasing the plant or
about having better service. II this
happens it should not be allowed to
pass again.

pie in the country. Where land Is
idle 1t is not entirely lost to produc-
ton because it will always produce
some grass and pasturage.
In the eastern states where there
are many factories, the situation is
different. These factories attract
more people from the farms than do

men live on farms but work in the
nearby towns and cities. The East
has not the live stock that Missouri
has. hence, in great many cases the
land which lies idle is an entire loss.
