Fruit trees are budding about two
weeks later than last year. Orchard
men state that this is safe margin on
which to predict good crops this summer.
The last week in March and the first
week in April are considered the most
critical periods for fruit crops. If the
trees go through this time without frost
or severe cold, the fruit for the season is
safe.
In 1920 and 1921 there were snow
storms and freezing weather which
ruined the fruit for those seasons. What
the peach, apple and cherry orchards will
develop this year will be decided by the
Weather Man within the next few days.

Missourians Prominent

Club Votes to Indorse Candi.

for Election to Next
School Board.

''Missourians Famous in The Nation
History was the topic of discussion a
the monthly meeting of the Daughter.
Of 1872, who met with Mrs. ]. n. Tay
lor on West Broadway yesterday after
noon. Mrs. II. S. Lansing was in charge
Of the program. She divided the sub
jects into two parts, Missourians famous
before the Civil War, and those who
were prominent after the war.
Miss Pearle Mitchell spoke on the for.
mer subject. She told of the lives Of
several prominent men, and their i'm
portance in the nations history. Among
these was Missouri's first territorial gov
ernor, William Clark, who was afterward
a party TO Burr's conspiracy. The first
governor, after Missouri became stale,
was Alexander McNair, who had pre-
viously been prominent in the War of
1872. He became governor in 1921, at
the old capitol at St. Charles and help
ed to establish the new capitol at Jefer
son City.
Other men who were active at that time
were Frederick Bates, Col. John Miller.
and DIR. Lewis F. Linn. who was known
as the model senator from Missouri.
Outstanding figures Of later period
were John G. Edward, Austin King and
Francis P. Blair. Several men among
this list were well known by Columbians
and often visited here. Among these
were Truslin Polk and General Sterling
Price.
Possibly the most outstanding figure
Of the period was Thomas Hart Benton.
He often visited in places near Colum.
bia, but never remained here long. This
was due TO the fact that he would stay
in no place which had voted against
him. Columbia had done this, and he
had eliminated her from his stopping
places.
Another prominent man was James S.
Rollins, who lived in Columbia. He was
at one time, editor Of the Columbia Pa
triot. He presided over the first rail.
road convention ever held west of the
Mississippi, which convened in St. Louis
in 1886. He also helped draft the bill
for the founding Of the University Of
Missouri, and is known as its founder.
He was one Of the strong Union men,
who stood out against secession.
Missouri has never had a president,
but she has had a presidents wife,
Mrs. Julia Grant, and number Of cab |
met men. Prominent Missourians of to- |
day were not discussed fully, but men
such as the late Champ Clark and Cener-
al Pershing we're mentioned.
The Daughters of 1872 voted to in.
dorse Mrs. L. W. ST. Clair-Moss' candi-
dacy for election to the school board, and
to support her in every way possible.
They also voted to stand behind the vote |
for the library tax.
A luncheon was served by Mrs. Taylor
following the program.

The farm garden showed that it was
fore profitable, in that more Of the work
was done by machinery instead OF hand
cultivation such as the town gardener
employs.
The returns on the home vegetable
garden we're closely estimated to have
paid the gardener an average OF $l!63 an
hour, while the farm garden yielded to
the cultivator wages amounting TO $l.7o
an hour.
