BIRD DAY TO
Be OBSERVED IN
SCHOOLS MAR q

Our statelschool law sets apart the
21st day Of March as Bird Day which
is to be observed in all the schools by
literary exercises having special re-
ference to birds, their habits and use
fulness and best methods of protec-
ton.
Another section of the law sets
aside the first Friday after the first
Tuesday in April, April s, this year,
as Arbor Day. Arbor Day is an older
observance, but there are some very
good suggestions made by State Sup
e~rintendent Baker for this year. He
approves the request of the National
Society Of World War Registrars that
Arhor Day memorial trees be planted
On every court of honor, memorial
avenues and roadways, and suggests
that the rural communities construct
memorial roadways or plant memorial
rec for the fallen heroes.
There should be one tree for every
fallen soldier. They may be nut and
fruit bearing as well as forest trees
md should be planted under the dir
ection of a city, state or government
expert, forester where possible. Each
tree should be marked with a plate
giving name, address and rank of the
soldier; also the military organiza-

the state. A large percentage Of tae
mules raised in Missouri are market
ed over the river at the horse and
mule market of the National Stock
yards, and over there it is predicted
that the price of mules soon viii be
better says the st. Louis Globe Dem
ocrat. When questioned about the
horse and mule market, these dealers,
who occupy a long row of brick build
ings at tbs stockyards, gave their OPP
inions about what the market is to-
day, and what it may >be within the
next few months. Warren Bailey of
the Maxwell Crouch Mule Company,
one of the largest concerns of its kind
in existence stated that the mule
market is, generally speaking, about
SIS a head off. His statement is based
on the prices prevalent six months
ago. DR.. j. F. Reid Of the Campbell
& Reid and Wetsern Sales Stables, a
commission house which does an enor-
mouse business in the horse and mule
trade, expressed the opinion that the
prices of both horses and mules were
off about so per cent. Eighty to IS
per cent of the mules sold by the East
st. Louis markets go to the South
and 60 to 10 per cent of the horses,
according to Reid. The sudden drop
in prices was unexpected by both
farmers and the feeders Of horses
nd mules. Beth held on, unwilling
TO sell at a lowered price, though
prices were constantly dropping still
lower and a consequent loss resulted.
The feeders were the greatest losers,
said Bailey, and there were a num-
Der of cases of bankruptcy in such
counties as Galloway, Boone, Aud
rain, Howard and Saline, where
mules are fed for the southern trade.
He commented on the fact that many
farmers had told hi moi how much
they had lost feeding a bunch of
mules, but expressed the opinion that
they were usually figuring their feed
at a fancy price. He said that in
some cases their loss we real but
only where they did not turn loose
soon enough.

S. H. Huddleston, of Auxvasse,
bought Is head Of pure-bred Poland
China sows at the Mcclure sale, at
Mexico, recently. He bought them to
raise a carload of hogs to put in his
IN field next fall to fatten for mar
ket. They cost him an average of
$40.93 apiece, which is about what
grade sows would have cost him to
pick one or two at aplace. When he
sends the porkers to market he will
have a load looking like b~lack-eyed
peas all smooth and uniform in
color. One advocate of raising pure
breds, in speaking Of this deal, said
they will bring enough over a lot Of
grade stuff to pay for the sows, be.
sides the pleasure Mr.. Huddlestor
will have in handling good sows. He
win not pay any attention to theil
pedigrees, depending only on tn
quality of the pure-breds over grades

The fight on the chineh bug in Aud
rain County is developing along most
satisfactory lines. Aside from the
fact that the railroads are co-operat-
ing by burning the brush and dead
grass along their right of way, in
many parts of Audrain the farmers
are following a similar plan on their
property. This is especially true in
the Duly and Benton City neighbour
hoods.
Prof. A. Gorrell, instructor of Vo-
National Agriculture at Mcmillan
High School, who has been making an
active effort over the county for the
elimination of the chinch bug, says
that this work at this time should
prove especially effective as every
where where the grass and brush has
been burned the chinch bug has no
place to hide when the weather gets
cold and hence viii be killed by the
low temperature.
This is a most important campaign,
and one that should be pushed all over
Audrain in order to eliminate this
dangerous pest which menace the
crop success of the coming season.
