WHAT ARE THE OUTSTAND-
ING FEATURES OF OUR
INDUSTRIAL FUTURE?

Managers of industries, corpora
tons and banking institutions are fac
ing responsibilities for the next two
years that would stagger generals of
armies and statesmen, with this diff
ference: the industrial leaGers cannot
fall back upon the lawmaking and tax
alton powers of the government to
help them solve the riddle involved in
keeping their properties intact and
their customers and employees salts
fed, to not even mention their stock
holders.
State and federal instrumentalities
must become more constructive and
helpful if the big factors in the ma
tional prosperity status are not to be
handicapped and crippled beyond re-
suscitation. Who can say our state
agencies have in the main been helpful
in the solution of industrial problems
Government as a rule is cold and I'M
sympathetic toawrd struggling indus
tries and public service undertakings
with private capital. Should not this
policy be reversed?
What are the two greatest factors
in restoring normalcy and preventing
a
financially? We have passed through
a Consumers strike" and are now in
the throes of an industrial stage
where home consumption is falling of
and foreign markets are diminishing
from the great wartime demands
made on the nation.
The readjustment that will take
place in the next two years will be at
tended by declining prices and wages.
Capital, labor and agriculture will
have to absorbe their share of the
shrinkage in values and economic
losses. There will be no margin for
wild talk or wind actions and intelli-
gence must reign as the superior pow
err in human affairs and overpower re-
sorts to violence.
Twenty billions spent in world war,
and as much more lost through indi-
vidual extravaganza and inefficiency,
and morale lowered through the ex-
element of a great world struggle
against military autocracy, requires
of every American citizen the highest
and most patriotic resolution to repair
the great loss to our normal prosper
ity.
How can we maintain the high walls
of the American Zion and the high
standards of comfort and prosperity
to which we are accustomed? Only
by individual sacrifice, by individual
savings replacing the destroyed stores
of capital needed for development of
our country.
If every family of five could put in
the bank a thousand dollars savings
in the coming two years the great
shell hole blown in our garnered ma
tional wealth would be filled up and
we would be back to normal.
1t should not be difficult for the av-
erage man or woman to lay aside one
hundred dollars year for the next
two years and it would restore our
equilibrium and avert debacle.
Backed with sound judgment and
economy in public affairs, this nation
faces the most prosperous period of
its existence.
Have faith in your country, your
business, your fellow man. Nobody
ever played the United States short
and won.

MISSOURI WEEKLY
INDUSTRIAL REVIEW

We all live from industry. We
must work for sound industrial con-
ditions. 1921 may be one of the great
est years ever experienced by indus
try. There is every reason why it
should be the greatest if our people
win only make it SO by right thinking
and right action.

FOOTING UP OUR SOIL RESERVE

Good business takes careful meas
ure of its stock in trade. In line with
this practical idea men have been at
work a dozen years in Missouri care
fully surveying our soil reserve. In
the last ten years more than 173 sep
arate soil types have been identified
and mapped in Missouri. These range
in color from almost white, through
gray, yellow and red to jet black. In
order to map the boundaries of each
soil formation it has been necessary
for the workers to inspect every forty
acre field in nearly half. the area of
the state. To completely sample this
soil it is necessary to collect the sur
face, sub-surface and sub-soil. The
surface soil includes the top seven
inches, or pillow depth. The subsur-
face usually extends from seven to
eighteen inches and the sub-soil down
to thirty-six inches. Occasionally
where the soils are shallow and under
laid by sub-soil without an inter-
mediate zone, complete samples con-
sist of only two parts. There are
1913 soil samples in the laboratories
at the University of Missouri College
of Agriculture. These are subjected
to chemical analysis which shows the
total plant food present as well as the
principal needs of the soil in way of
fertilizer treatment. An average of
all tests made in this manner shows
that most Missouri soils need phos-
phate.
During the past summer the sur
vey Of Missouri soils was extended
over st. Louis, Lafayette and Cole
counties and was nearly finished in
Caldwell. In St. Louis county twen-
ty-five types Of soil were found, in
Lafayette twenty-three and in Cole
twenty. Samples from each type are
now being analysed in the chemical
laboratories of the College of Agricul-
ture.
In addition to the samples of soil
gathered by the representatives of
the Soils Department in their regu-
lar survey work, great many sam
pies We're brought or sent to the Ia
boratories by farmers who have come
to recognize the need of knowing ex-
actly what their soils contain and the
treatment under which they yield
most and longest.

RURAL FOLKS
SHOULD WATCH THIS

A new idea-rural planning-hAs
been launched in Wisconsin as a state
function which we think will be watch
ed with interest by all rural towns and
country communities. 1t is the first
of its kind in the United States.
AS defined by law, the planning Is
for the health, general welfare ard
amenity of the country folks and the
creation and development of local CON-
munity centers for social and bust
ness purposes.
Communities of the people them
selves are authorized and with them
must work the state department Of
agriculture, the state conservation
commission, state engineer, college Of
agriculture, highway commission and
the state superintendent of public in
struction. The more important du-
ties of these mittee-commissions
are defined as follows:
Secure and retain for the public, as
parks and otherwise, liberal borders Of.
timber around lakes.
Provide for attractive driveways
and beautiful places through natural
forests, and improve the general OUT
lay of highways and driveways.
Plant trees and shrubs, including
nut-bearing trees, along roadsides.
Provide parks and wood lots IN
country, town, village and city.
Secure for farming communities,
villages, cities and travelling public,
camping grounds along highways.
bordering lakes and in forests.
Make school grounds more attrac-,
tive by proper planting of trees,
shrubs and flowers.
Mark and identify places of histor-
ic interest. q
Discover and retain for the public
extraordinary geological and scenic
features.
Secure funds by gifts or otherwise
and donations of lands, buildings,
monuments and other material for
any of the above purposes. IS
If possible, secure the services Of a.
landscape architect.
Establish social centers in every
community in the country.

APPLICANT FOR U. 5. ATToRNEw

The Times is informed that Hon.
B. H. Boyer, of this city, is candidate
for the appointment of U. S. Attor-
ney for the Eastern District of Mis-
souri,, and indications are that his
chances for securing the appointment
are excellent, as he has an unusually
strong list of endorsers for such ap-
pointment.-The Pennington Times.
Mr.. Boyer is former Carter coun-
ty boy and since it is evident that
Republican is to receive the appoint
ment we know of no other individual
whose preferment would be more ac-
ceptable to this portion of the dis
trict. Mr.. Boyer is fully capable of
discharging the duties required Of the
position. and we hope to hear Of bis
selection fer the place.

FARMERS NEED LETTERHEADs

A neat well worded letterhead is
the first kind of advertising for the
up-to-date progressive farmer. The
name of the farm is the main feature
of the well planned letterhead, the
product is the second important fea-
cure and the farmers name is the
third. A short, snappy, easily re-
membered slogan, often adds to the
force of this letter advertising. Keep
the letterheads simple and dignified
and do not crowd too much on. An
Illustration, If we'll done. adds to the
attractiveness Of the letterhead- and
especially is this true if good half
tone photograph of the farm build
ings is used. We are printing num-
Der of these letterheads for the farm
ers in this vicinity. They are an ev-
ery-day necessity, not luxury.

DRAWN BY REAL MERIT

The pulling power of actual worth
is well illustrated in the decision of
a practical farmer who recently sold
his high-priced farm in a neighboring
state and bought land equally pro-
ductive, though not quite half so ex-
pens;ve, in Missouri. 1t was with
this advantage that Z. F. Becker, q
successful farmer, recently moved
from northeastern Iowa to Central
Missouri. He now has q farm only
three miles from the University Of
Missouri. Becker drives from farm
to town in just ten minutes over a
gravel road and has enrolled for the
full four-year course in the Missouri
College of Agriculture. He has lib
eral arts degree from an Iowa College
received ten years ago and will be able
to complete his farm course in two
years. After several months in his
new location, this man is highly pleas
ed with his exchange, and it is inter-
esting to note that he first investigat-
ed similar possibilities near the ag-
ricultural colleges of Iowa and Ne
brcska.
This incident of everyday occur
renee is significant for two reasons.
1t illustrates the drift toward the
reasonably priced farms of Missouri
and the eagerness with which men
are now turning to the agricultural
college for training to meet the COM
pick problems of farm life. More than
1900 students have received instruc-
ton at the Missouri College of Agri-
culture within the last twelve months,
the agricultural building is overflow
ing and the classes are crowded. Real
merit, both in farm land and in farm
schooling, has won recognition among
practical men.
