Missouri Has 100000 Head
of Cattle, 4,735,000 Head

! Speefsi 10 The MissaHrisn.
Jefferson City. May 9-The first quar-.
terly inquiry of the newly adopted plan
Of live stock survey work in Missouri for
1921 shows that Missouri farmers have on
hand 100000 cattle. 84O.OOO horses.
372.9oO mules, 4735OOO hogs, and
1890 sheep.
The findisgs show there are feeding on
farms $4,000 cattle of all ages. 2,375,OOO
hogs, and 10000 sheep and lambs. This
report covers the quarter frem January
TO April 1. 1921. and will be made here
after in july, October. January and April,
according to the joint announcement is
sued today by Z. A. Logan and Jewell
Mayes Of the United States and state
departments Of agriculture, who are in
trodVcing this new service.
Missouri farmers exprers decided
lack of interest in cattle feeding. owing
TO the price situation. and future market
uncertainty. This is also true of sheen.
and many farmers who were induced 10
handle sheep during the war are now
rapidly disposing of their fIocks.
2.8O0,000 HEAD OF CATTLE
Missouri cattle numbered 265OOOO
head on January I. 1921. To this have
been added 100000 calves born during
the quarter. and 2l0,0O0 head which
were moved onto Missouri farms. Dur.
ing the period $4,000 cattle were slaugh.
tered and $1,000 died; 29l,OOO head of
cattle were sold off of Missouri farms.
II is thus estimated that on April first
there we're 2,8OO,OOO head of cattle and
calves on farms, Of which 100000 we're
COWS over one year old, and $4,000 hei- |
fers under one year.
The $4,000 head now on feed for
market, or Il per cent of the total num-
Der Of cattle, are divided as follows:

40 per cent or 10000 head were to be
disposed Of in June; the remaining H.,
600 head are to 60 to market as condi
tions warrant.
Horses were estimated al $4,000 on
January l. 1921, to which have been
added 5000 colts born during the past
three months, and 1900 horses have
been moved to farms. From this, num-
Der $4,000 were sold and 1900 horses,
or l3 per thousand, died during the quar-
ter, leaving $4,000 head Of horses on
farms April ]. Mares Of breeding age
on farms represent 10000 head. or 46
per cent Of the total number Of horses.
$4,000 HEAD OF MULES
Mule stock on farms January I amount
cd to $4,000. to which have been added
1900 coils born from January to April,
and 5000 were brought onto farms.
from which deducted 25,000 sold off Of
farms and 1900 head Of mules died, or
7 per thousand. fsrmers' reports indi-
cate $4,000 mares TO be bred for mule
colts during the season, which would re-
produce out present mule stock in three
years. The number Of mules on hand
April / is estimated at $4,000. Move
ment Of horses and mules has been very
slow this spring.
Hogs on Missouri farms, January |,
numbered 100000 head. To this num-
Der have been added l,950OO0 pigs born
during the quarter, and 723.00O head Of
hogs we're moved off or from farm to

10000, but not necessarily all Of this
number went to market for slaughter.
There were slaughtered on farms during
he period. 2l7.00O head. Reports show
,l7-000 head Of hogs and pigs to have
lied during this period, or 60 per thou
and, which resulted from the large num-

gathered on the wesl steps of Jay II,
Neff Hall, the paper boys present a non
descnpt appearance. But behind the
eyorready smile and the mischievous look
in the paper boys eyes is an alert brain.
a healthy feeling Of rivalry between him
and his fellow carriers and a genuine
enjoyment in his work.
Sometimes ihe papers are late. the edi-
tion having been held up for an import-
ant story or because of press trouble.
Then the paper boys must hand around,
usually without knowing how long, and
without taking time out for supper,
Whenever a special edition is printed. Il

according 10 the newsboys. And rain
along with a double load Of papers. is
not very mirth-proyoking.
Now that winter is over, the newsboy
finds his work easier minus snow and
total darkness. But Missouri mud is al
ways to be reckoncd with and the cost
of short cuts is the addition Of mud,
and more mud, to his shoes.

tomcr, he is very likely TO be asked 10
take want ad in to the paper, or TO
have one taken out, or to procure IN ex-
ira copy Of some special edition. A
carrier has even been asked to tell a
customer Of any openings in jobs which
he may hear Of, or to give advice On
matters pertaining to advertising or even
books and school.
Various customers want their papers
left in all sorts of different places. In
stead of the front porch, a carrier may
be asked to leave a paper in a mail box,
toss it up TO a seoond-stOy balcony or
window. or to leave il at customers

on what days' he has been asked to cIlI
regularly for collections. At these times
he learns all the family doings, from ire

He sees that her back is iwitching and
he cannot resist the temptaiion to reach

Good Reading

Did you ever stop to think that the
advertisements of the home mer-
chants in this newspaper make it a
better newspaper?
Well, 1t does. Advertising teaches
progress, economy and confidence.
1t teaches progress in keeping you
abreast of the times, of all that is
new and desirable in foods, clothing,
homes, supplies, and comforts of all
kinds.
1t teaches economy thru informing
you whore the best prices may be
had-because economy is not only
the mere saving of money but also
in the intelligent spending of it.
: 1t teaches confidence thru the
knowledge gained in knowing you
live as other folks live; enjoy the
things they enjoy-that you have the
same advantages.

Going After
Rum Runners

Sheriff Tom Hennesey of machine
gun fame. through his activities in
curbing the progress of whisky run
ners i'll the county, is in receipt of
proposition from 1t. j. Earl Flade-
land, we'll known North Dakota av-
iator, offering his services and Cur
tis bi-plane for use in "spotting"
rum runners, and locating liquor
plants and stills in some of the
almost inaccessible reaches of the
Turtle mountains.
Lieutenant Fladeland suggests
equipping his plane with a 22O h. p.
Hispano-Suiza motor for high alti-
tude work and fast flying, and with
Martin synchronized and Lewis ira
versatile machine guns. 1t is his be-
lief that a sufficient number of run
ners can be coralled to make the
enterprise more than support itself.
Mr.. Fladeland also asserts that such
a plane would encounter little diff
ficulty in overtaking aircraft of the
type used in liquor traffic, and he.
says, "you can deputize me and we
can put it over in good old army
style, besides it will be real sport"

A HUNTING STORY
Sounds like old times:

Sounds like old times:
List to this tale from Rice Lake,
Wis. It's tale of moose cows
tail and of hunter bold, who
staged an impromtu parade and
towed bull moose through the town
The hunter, true to form, was
hunting. Two big moose, a COW and
a bull, staged as surprise party for
him. He said he shot the cow with
his last cartridges and nearly drop
ped dead himself when the bull re-
manned complacently on the spot. He
investigated. The bull was blind. 1t
had been led around by the COW,
whose tail it held in its teeth.
Then, runs the narrative, the hunt
er pulled out his knife, slashed the
tail from the dead cow-close to the
body-and took up the duty of lead
ing the blind bull. Fourteen miles
he negotiated with the cows tail and
the bull still intact. and Rice Lake
was entered.
In closing the story, the hunter
led the cows tail, which led the
bull to the hardware store. There
he procured more cartridged and
shot the bull. Several veracious men
including the hunter, maintain that
the story is not all-well, it's fact.

Fast Game Won
by Independents

One of the best basket ball games
ever seen on the local floor was pulled
off last Saturday afternoon before a
small crowd at the High School Gym
nasium. The contending teams were
the Independents and the last years
H. H. S. team.
For the first ten minutes of play
the former High School team were
going strong and had scored ten
points before the Independents had
located the basket. Things then
changed and the score was evened up.
From then on things were nip and
tuck, first one side and then the other
would be in the lead. When the final
whistle blew the score was found to
be "a to 38 in favor of the Independ-
ents, who had maintained a slight
lead through most of the second half.
At the end of the first half the score
had been IL to Is in favor of the H.
S. boys.
The lineup of the teams was as
