where opponents of prohibition still dare
to suggest a popular vote on the subject.
But it is not on record that any state
or any city has voted against tobacco.
and anti-tobacco laws will be of no avail
until public sentiment has reached a

mate, but the crusaders should start as
the prohibitionists did, with local option.

Following an oil-stOve fire at Barre
last Tuesday, the fire chief of that city
gives some good advice regarding oil
burning stoves which is worth noting by
anyone using them. He says IF you use
oil stoves keep them clean, keep the burn
ers well trimmed and do not leave the
house while they are in use. A box of
sand should always be kept near at hand
to throw on the flames in case of fire.
Even the most we'll behaved oil stove has
a way of drawing up" when left to its
own devices and may become in a few mo-
ments a dangerous thing

INTERESTING TO FARMERS
The Condition OF the Crops I'm Mis-
souri, as Reported the Middle
of the Month.

JEFFERSON CITY, May 19.-
1921, the condition of Missouri crops
was given to the press and showed
the acreage of wheat in Missouri is
estimated at 2,764,000 acres and its
condition at 81 per cent OF normal.
The expected average per acre is
1929 bushels, a gain of 2.79 bushels
per acre over last years yield. The
continued rainfall of May is expected
to be harmful to the wheat. Green
bugs, chinch bugs, and the Hessian
fly are in several central and south
ern counties.
Twenty-three counties report wheat
prospects above 95 per cent normal,
the highest being Linn, Livingston,
Rails, Shelby and st. Charles, each at
100, Sullivan, Monroe and Pike at 80,
Andrew, Worth, Lewis, Crawford and
Texas at 9S.
The condition OF rye is promising
in all parts of the state.
Oats condition is n against so for
last year.
Hay shows an increase in acreage
and yiold over last year.
Spring plowing has been delayed
by rains but is still 23 per cent above
the average for last year.
f,,o H.,
The fruit crop in Missouri will be
relatively very small this year.
Applications for pensions for blind
persons, qualified under the law, are
coming daily to the office of state

sires the information to be made gen.
eral that no payment of these pensions
can be made before December, 1921,
there being no funds now available.
Back pay. however. will be given to
all applicants from the date of the
acceptance of their claim. 1t is ex-
pected that 1000 persons will be en-
titled to this pension.
The members of the Christian
Church in Jefferson City are prepar-
ing to entertain 500 visitors at the
