About two years ago he engag-

COMPROMISING?
Legislature More Than Loaded.
Roads Having Attention
New Laws Lost.

tits apparant that a spirit Of
compromise is being shown by
soIons at Jefferson City and q
halfway satisfactory road pro
gram be adopted whether i
stands final test or not. Gov.
Hyde has squirmed all over the
Capitol trying to deaden the Ell
feet of the referendum of SO
many of his pet schemes but il
is certain now that the legisla-
ture will not consider many Of
his recommendations. The pur-
pose of the session had about
been lost sight of in the multi
plicity Of new bills bat the road
proposition is now showing up
and. to a degree, fayorably.
Some Of the news laws, such as
the county unit Bill have already
gone to the discard and the
vote of the people will settle
such questions later on.

SHORT WHEAT CROP
Yield Is Far Below Prospects
Quality Generally Good :
Market Breaking

Much of the down wheat which
would have been cut one way
will now be allowed to remain
untouched for the grain There
is a much larger acreage of down
and worthless wheat than ap-
peared at the beginning of har-
vest and the txrn-out of some
fields is far below what was cal
culated on. The quality SO far
as delivered to market, is good,
none falling below number 2 and
much that can be graded num-
Der one. The price is on the de-
cline, for what reason no one
seems to know. If there was
ever a year when holding would
look good to the producer. il
surely is this year. But who
can tell?

True Everywhere


And then there is the married
man who goes right straight
home and tell his wife the naugh-
ty stories his bachelor friends
tell him. Nobody but bachelors.
you understand ever tell naughty
stories, though as a rule they
get them from married men
anyway the wife enjoys them, or
seems to, and with painful regu-
larity tells them in turn at her
club: if they are not too naughty
which bachelors stories seldom
are, or to her individual friends,
and in. doing so never fails to
state that the story was told by
this bachelor or the other to
John and John told her. The
women enjoy itof course, though
pronouneing it awful = but in
such fashion many an exemplary
bachelor with two or three indis-
Greet married friends has lost his
reputation. He may tell two or
possibly three such stories in as
many years, but among the fair
finally become the pack-horse
for all the naughty stories going,
though he may never have heard
a tenth of them and did not care
enough for those he did hear
to pass them on, It's the mar
ried mans way of unloading and
the wife's way of relieving hub
by in the matter. Eventually,
the bachelor becomes a resur-
rected Rabelais in the eyes of his
friends wives, and not being
ambitious to maintain such a rep
utation, awakens some morning
to the fact that he had better
have kept his mouth shut. These
married men are poor sports at
best. Anyhow Paris bachelors
have quit telling stories. At
least they have grown particular
as to who they tell 'em to and
never fail to give some reputable
man as authority. It is a matter
of seIf-protection against ladies
with immaculate husbands.
Such husbands are said to actu-
ally exist, though we are free to
confess that we have not as yet
encountered one alive and in
captivity. Tom Bodine.

Stephenson-Burns

j. w. Stephenson of Arm
strong, Mo. and Miss Anna Ruth
Burns of this city were married
at the parsonage Of the Metho-
dist church at Salisbury Sunday
at 4:3O p. m. Rev. Moseley per-
formed the ceremony. The groom
came to this city and the snppos-
ition was that the couple were
going out for a car ride. Upon
their return and announcement
of their marriage, much surprise
was felt by the parents of the
bride @ha had. not suspected
Miss Ethel Fidler accompanied
them to Salisbury and witnessed
the ceremony.
Mr.. Stephenson is connected
with the Armstrong Herald and
is a young man with ambitions
and his wife is the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. w. Fl. Burns of
this city, graduate of K. H. S.
and a teacher ib Memphis schools
last year and had accepted a

The Y. NJ. c. A.

An effort is being put forth by
members or rather officers of the
Y. M. c. A. to raise $4,000 to
clear the Association of indebt-
edness and open the rooms at
Columbia, Mo. Repairs and i'm
provements on the building and
a fund to insure. financial stabil-
ity are needed and it is asked
that the amount be subscribed.
The building at Columbia it ap-
pears, has been closed for some
time, for what reason we do not
know unless for the reason gen.
orally applying to affairs of the
Association over the world.
That the Y. M. C. A. is in a
pitiful condition everywhere be-
cause of the rotten management
across seas during the war and
the reprehensible treatment Of
soldier boys almost as generally
as particularly on the fields of
Flanders and France, is beyond
doubt and the estimation tof the
Association by soldier boys ac-
counts for the unfriendly feel
ings of everyone else. Sancti-
monious globe trotters securing
employment as representatives
of the Y. M. C. A. and grating
in every conceivable way put in-
terest in the association on short
grass ranges while the Salvation
Army and Knights of Columbus
draw praise from an admiring
world and the bars are all down.
along the fields of richest grain.
These associations ican ask for
what they want and get it in
any quantity but the Y. III. G.
A. has lost the love and support
the public of America once ac-
corded it.

In almost every town you hear
complaint about the...weeds and
we are no better off than other
towns in that respect. The
weeds are growing up along the
side walks and in vacant lots and
make the town look very un-
slightly. Why not take an hour
or two Of your sparei time and
cCt the weeds and improve the
looks of the town. Try it and
see if it don't look much better.

Wheat harvest is over and
threshlng will begin this week.
Wheat and oats will not yield
half what they were expected
to yield early in the season. The
main causes were the late freeze
and the rust. Most of the wheat
heads have from one to three
empty glumes at the tnp and
from three to FIVE glume scars at
the bottom of the head while
there is one empty glume to
each mesh. How did the freeze
and rust cause this? The freeze
killed many of the lower blades
aud the rust covered the remain
ing blades. In these blades the
plant food is changed to starch
By processes known as elabora-
ton and photosynthesis. When
the blades are killed or their
fahctioning impaired the starch
csnnoe be made to be stored in
the grain. Under these condi-
tons tne heads could not be fill
ed and the straw is left in a
weak impaired condition caus-
