Bates County in Bull Contest.

Bates County is one of the forty
three Missouri counties that have en-
,ered the Missouri Better Bull Con
test and will compete for the $1,000
prizes. Prizes are offered by the
Kansas City Chamber OF Commerce
to the County Farm Bureau or Coun-
ty Breeders Association that re-
places the greatest number of scrub
cr grade bulls with registered animals
during the year. Supervision of the
work is under the Extension Service
of the Agricultural College.
Last year in a similar contest over
seven hundred scrub bulls were re-
placed by purebred animals in Mis-
souri,. Equally good results should
&c obtained this year according to IT.
M. Garrock, Extension expert in
charge of this work for the college,
Many counties have entered that were
no; in the contest last year.
Breeders of purebred bulls are be-
ginning to realize that they have a
good market field to develop in their
own counties. A bull placed in a
3ull sale held in connection with this
contest may be sold at d comparative
low figure to replace some neighbor S
scrub bull. But. there is very little
overhead expense for county sale
and this neighbor will become reg
.,lar customer for pure bred bulls.
Here's a chance Tor Bates County
10 win $500 prize and make the
ounty widely known as live stock
center. Every purchase OF a pure
,red bull should be reported to the
county agent SO that it may be count
ed in the contest in case it has re-
laced scrub bull.
Other competing counties i'll this
contest are: Andrew, Buchanan, But
Ter, Caldwell, Cape Girardeau. Car
roll, Cass, Charlton. Clinton, Cole,

Henry County Farmer Pays Taxes on
$1,000 for 1000 Bushels of Corn
Worth 5000.

Jefferson City, March I.--Here is .
concrete example Of. how Governor
tfydes high tax policy hit a farmer
OF Henry county: X
Max Crouch, a farmer, living south
west of Clinton, was the owner of
1000 bushels of corn when the as
SCISSOR came to his farm in June,
1920, to assess his property for 1921
taxes. ,-
The naarket value of corn was about
- buSheI and the corn was assessed
at $4,000. The state board of equali-
cation, headed by Governor Hyde,
voted IS per cent increase for all
ersoaal property of Henry county
which boosted Crouch's assessment
on the Corn to $500.
When Crouch paid his taxes in De-
cember, 1921, on an assessment Of
$4,000 the corn was worth about
s. ,o4o, the market price being IS
cents bushel

OUT GO THE WHITE
ELEPHANTS
Homemakers' Clubs Start Revolu.
ton in Kitchen Equipment.

AVA IA AAASSAASA AS40&fAA&SsSss
The mere fact that some method or
piece OF equipment has been used in
their homes from the time whereof
the memory of man runneth not back
to the contrary is no longer accepted
Ivy Carroll county farm women as SUI
ficient reason for continuing such
use. All members Of Homemakers'
Clubs in that county are to make a
kitchen inventory this spring at
housekeeping time. From these
lists, according to Miss Fra Clark,
extension specialist in home econom-
les for the Missouri College of Agri-
culture, each woman will select the
most used equipment and at the club
meeting each member will bring what
she considers the best utensil in her
kitchen and also her poorest invest
ment, the white elephant that she
would like to throw away if she had
the nerve to do it.
By such comparison the homen1ak-
ers expect to eliminate unsatisfactory
methods and equipment. Articles of
modern equipment, also, such as
bread mixers, steam pressure cookers
and vacuum cleaners are being
rassed from member to member by
the clubs So that each housekeeper
RAY actually test these things in her
cwn home without expense, before
making a permanent investment.
