Champ Clark Buried

Honors and encomiums never
surpassed in the funeral and
burial services of an American
were bestowed on Missouri's
great man. Champ Clark. The
tribute paid by senator Jas. A.
Reed to his personal and political
friend was grand and copied in
the leading journals of the
world.
The body of the distinguished
statesman was accompanied
from Washington to st. Louis
and then to his old home, Bowl
ing Green by senators and con-
gressmen, cabinet members and
diplomats, among them Hon. w.
W. Rucker, and the mountains
OF floral tributes defed descrip.
ton by the country's ablest writ
ers. In death as in life, he was
most highly honored.

posed route.
The North Cross State Highway
Association believes in state sys
TEN of highways, but it believes thai
the selfish interests of no city oil
group of cities should control the
designation of the system. 1t be.
lieves that it is a. matter of no ma
terial Importance to the auto tourist
whether he travels an accustomed
route of travel which he has chosen
because of intensive advertising OF
detours from that route and travels
through Mexico, Moberly and Car
rollton. The North Cross State High
way Association appreciates the
value of interstate travel, and would
encourage the same, but when the
people of the state voted for the $780,,
OO0.000.O0 amendment their purpose
was to Lift Missouri Out of the
Mud" The system of highway
should be system of state highways
with a view of best serving the inter
ests of the entire state.
The president and secretary Of
some established National Trail AS.
sociation should not be permitted tc
dictate the system. Kansas City, st.
Joe, and other populous centers
should be reached, but Kansas City
especially can not, afford to antagon-
ize the commercial interests of the
state at large by attempting to dis
criminate in favor of any specific
route across the state. The road sys-
TEN adopted should be adopted in a
practical businesslike way and the
two great commercial centers can
best serve the commercial interests
of those cities by adopting Shands
off" policy. No city can afford to
adopt underhand political methods
and expect to benefit by such course
of action.

The friends of the North Cross
State Highway realize the value and
Importance to the state of well for
mulated state system of highways. If
these roads are to have any distinct
i've value they should meet the needs
and requirements oftthe farming in
terests that form the backbone o
Missouri and the Nation and to do
this most effectively they should tra-
verse each and every county of Mis-
souri, in manner that will hest con-
meet the smaller as we'll as the larger
market centers These roads should
be located to serve the best interests
of the people of the state irrespective
of whether or not such roads repre-
sent the present established avenues
for interstate travel. The interstate
travel will readily adjust itself to
new areynues of travel in crossing
the state. 1t will make very little
differences to the tourists from the
east Ok from the west whether they
travel through Chillicothe, Moberly
or Columbia, but it is of paramount
interest to the state that the great
est possible number of people are af-
forded the greatest possible mileage
Of road suitable for travel at all sea-
sons of the year.
1t should be the desire of the citi-
ems of Missouri to be afforded an op-
portunity to travel across the state
from east to west and from north to
south over we'll constructed and well
maintained highways. II goes with
out saying that cities Of Kansas City
and st. Louis should be thus con-
nected, but Kansas City should not
attempt to the people Of the state the
route or routes to be selected. Meth
er should st. Louis exert its influence
to shape the course of these highway.
St. Louis and Kansas City should be
interested in fostering spirit of
state pride loyalty. and their pros
perity will be best promoted by main
joining in a selfish movement to es-
the best business men and farmers
OF their own state in preference to
joining ma selfish movement to es-
tablish routes of travel to please The

Township collector E. B. Har-
per of Brunswick turned over to
the county treasurer Monday the
balance of SO 2 10rpercent of the
amount on the tax book for his
township and the small delir-
quent sheet to the county clerk.
Who will say that this is not a
fine collection for this year, con-
sidering the portable population
of his territory? Last year was
a much easier time to extract
cash in the form of taxes from
the pockets of a pretty heavily
tax -burdened people but the per-
cent last year was but a fraction
better than this. But observe
the hairsprlrg touch the genial
officer uses and the results will
be no source of wonder.

Farm Bureau Notes
BY R. D. Jay, County Farm
Agent.
FIy in wheat

We have been hearing reports
from various parts of the county
in regard to Hessian Fly in the
wheat this spring and last week
the County Agent had an oppor-
tunity to get into several fields
and verify these reports. The
situation is indeed very serious
in several localities and it is high
time that all that are interested
in a wheat crop for next year.
begin to plan to cooperate with
their neighbor in the eradication.
Of this pest this summer and fall.
We know positively that this in-
sect can be controlled for it has
been done in many communilits s
and it is comparatively easy and
will save thousands of dollars to
any community. In fact we
were in one locality in this coun-
ty last Friday where the farmers
will lose thousands of dollars
this year on account Of adecreas-
ed wheat yield. This is a mat
ter that the bankers In any loca''-
ity could profitably work on to
increase their tank deposits, if
they will urge the farmers to
control this pest this coming sea-
son.

will produce only SIS under the
