ASK FARMERS TO
BURN OUT BRUSH

Columbia, Mo-, Nov. 3.-Missouri
farmers are to be asked to take
steps this fall to lessen the destruc-
tiveness Of the chinch bug on Mis-
sou1i's wheat crop of the coming
season, according to Prof. A. C. Pur-
rill, extension assistant in entomol-
ogy at the college of agriculture of
the university here, who has begun a
campaign to get Missouri farmers
to burn the grass along roads and
fences on their farms.
The railroads in the state also have
been asked to cooperate in this move
ment to eradicate the chinch bug,
according to Professor Pumill, by
burning off the light-of-way along
all lines. The purpose of burning
the grass along roads ard fences and
the railroads, according to Professor
Burrill, is to destroy the harboring
places Of the chinch bug. Directions
for the most effective chinch bug con-
troll have been sent out to county
superintendents and farm agents who
are urged to remind farmers in their
communities of the necessity of TAX
ing action against the pest this fall.
1t is estimated that careful burn
ing of right-of-ways along the rail
roads in Missouri would save, for
transportation of wheat alone, about
10000 bushels of wheat in every
thirty-siX miles of track during the
chinch bug years.

OIL ENCOUNTERED AT
JENKINS WELL
The Big Oil Drill Closed Down Sun
day Night and Casing Will be
Run to Shut out Water.

A good showing OF oil has been en-
eountered in limestone and sand
formation at the Monett-Jenkins well
four miles from jenkins in Barry
county. The big oil drill was closed
down Sunday night to run casing in
order to get rid of the water in the
hole so that the expected oil sand can
be entered with a dry hole.
Excitement is keen in Barry county
Over 1000 people visited the well
Sunday to see the showings Of oil.
The news had spread to Monett,
Purdy, Cassville, Crane and Aurora
and hundreds of cars came to the we'll
All day they were there and some
came in the morning and were still
there at dark.
Each one who came had to see the
oil with his own eyes. Officers and
stockholders formed bucket brigade
and caught the water as it flowed
from the well and carried it to the
sunlight to show the visitors the rain
bows of oil ON the water. A rain
bow of oil showed on most any bucket
of water caught from the well, in the
baler as it was raised from the well
and small particles of oil raised from
the cuttings in the slush bucket and
broke on the top of the water and
formed rainbow of oil. Visitors
saw the oil and smelled the gas. That
was the routine all day long.
The oil was there and has been !
there for two days, no mistake about |
that. However, the officers and geo.
logist of the company point out that
only good showing has been en-
countered.
The formation is limestone and
sand and carries some oil and the .
cuttings give good chemical test of .
oil. Stockholders and officials believe
that a good well will be the result as
soon as the water can be successfully
eased off and the formation penetrat-
ed few feet further with dry hole.
At any rate the Monett-Jenkins well
is very popular place just now and
will be the next few days until it is
known what is just underneath the
present formation.
The sale of units took a big jump
and all day long, after the
news came out, local people bought
units. The price remains the same,
$40 per unit.

LOVE AS USUAL"
Continued from Page p

pillows, "and, you know, Herbert
has a studio around the corner
some place"
Il just collapsed on the sofa
and looked at her. So you got
your divorce before l could come
and stop your l said, and you
amt living together no more?
Carrie said, no, they wasn't
divorced, but they wanted to be.
And they'd never really lived to-
gether-the way married people
ought to, | mean. She'd heard
so much about women staying
free and keeping their own names
after they got married and living
in their own houses, she finally
talked Herbert into it, too. Soon
as they came back from their
wedding trip, she'd started house
keeping in the village and once in
a while they'd meet at one of
them cellar or garnet places call
ed the Green Cat or the Black
Witch or something crazy, and
have supper and go to the theater.
And for little while they got on
all right and she sold story to
a magazine and paid her own rent
and thought married life was fine.
"'Carrie,' l said to her, this is
awful. Does your husband like
this way of living?'
"She owned up he didn't and
was always fussing with her to
take flat and live like respecta-
bic people. But she wouldn't,
and then he got hufy, and never
came around much and forgot to
call up and make date for sup
per with her. And now he said
if she didn't behave herself he was
going to Europe for the summer
and didn't care what she did.
Amt that fine news for a girl to
tell her mother when all | want
is for my children to let me die
in peace?
"'Carrie,' I said, 4 always
knew you was a fool, but I didn't
think it was so bad. why did
you get married for, anyhow
"1 guess l thought I loved
him. says Carrie, kinda ashamed
"'And what did Herbert marry
you for?' I went on just like a
judge.
az suppose he loved me- says
Carrie.
at was a case of love as
usual I says, and that's the
kind of love that lasts if you don't
put it under no extra strain. Her
bert's good boy-you can just
see the goodness sticking all over
his face-and he's willing to give
you your way if you don't expect
him to stand for all kinds of mon
kew business. Men are all alike

what's the matter with you, but
I do. You want to have Herbert
dancing after you whenever you
whistle and you want to write
stories though you amt got no
more talent for writing than |
have for toe dancing. And now
you amt selling no more stories
and you miss your husband and
you think you want divorce. :.
If saw such craziness in movie,
I'd say it wasn't true to life.
"'Now I tell you what you've
got to do. You learn to cook
and give Herbert sauer braten in
stead of all your restaurant gef-
resserie; and get a small flat and
have something real to worry
about when the shicksha breaks
any of them crystal goblets your
aunt give you or steals the but

as you can-they take your mind
off your other troubles and
