A REFORM ISSUE SAYS STONE The Missouri Senator’s Speech ito Democrats in Warrensburg. War UR tor William J. Stone, in his epeech here yesterday to the gathering of state Democrats, declared that in the next national campaign reform ehould be the Pemocratic slogan. “The times,” he said, “are auspicious for Democratic triumph and the sky grows brighter every day, The next battle is ours if we are only true to ourselves,” Stone sald: “There must be reform In the tariff, which is destroying ourforeign trade fostering monster monopolies, and oppreseing the people; reform {in rail- road transportation,so that reason, justice and equality shall prevatl; re- form in water transportation, so that the great producing states of the Mississippi valley may havecom- petition and cheaper rates irom the great lukes and the Western moun- tains to the gulf: reform in elections, so that the Presidency may not be eold in the market place; reform in expenditures, 80 that the people may not he oppressed with needless taxa- tion; reform in administration, so thatthe lawmav be enforced agatnat the strong as well as the weak; re- form in the departments, so that the agents of monopoly may not direct our public affairs, and that the long revel of official crime maycease, Re- form is theslogan, and never was there atime when that battle cry should stir the people as now.” On state issues Senator Stone said, among other things: “From this time forth it is to be hoped that we will hear. less talk agong Pemocrats about machines, old or new, and that there will be Mes of suspicion, and less of aerimony and bick Cae spirit of discord fe fast dwindling already, and ft fe to Mo., Oct. +.—Sena- ering: be hope. thatafter this meeting It willdisappear.

The teaching of agriculture in the rural schools would have its highest | value in it- effect on the farmer; for, | while it fe important to Improve the| form, it fs more {mportant to improve the farmer. Farmers are more than farme—souls than soils. A fuer knowledge of agriculture would greatly change the farmer. Is would broaden his mind and deepen his way |of thinking. His vocation would ap- pear to him in a newaspect. Instead lof walking blindly among the great | forces of nature, as he now too ofsen does—instead of looking upon nature as a great puzzle, that only per- plexes, or bewtlders, or discourages him—he would see order and beauty and law that would clarify his think- fog and encourage nnd guide him: to more successful doing. Teach the children the lessons of the soil. Tell them the fonderful story of ite origin, or, better still, let them tell you what they have seen in the field and by the brook, and then give them the charming explanation. Tell them why men plow and what are the reasons for cultivating the soil, and what methods of cultiva- tion wre beneficial and what are de- for consumption, Coughs and Colds, and other mediciues, thereby de- frauding the public. This ia to warn you to beware of such ple, who seek to profit, through stealing the reputation of remedies which have been successfully curing disease, for 35 years. A sure protection to you, is onr name on the wrapper. Look for it,on all Dr. King’s or Bucklea’s remedies, as all others are mere imitations, H. E. BUCKLEN &€0, Chicago, Ill, and Windsor, Canada eldedly injurious. Tell them how the physical condition of the soll may affect ite fertility; and tell them what elements have been taken from the soil when {t is worn out, and how to replace them, Tell them the marvel ous story of the most important dis- covery of modern times—a discovery which places in the hand of every farmer, & means, completely under his control, of drawing from the at mosphere the free nitrogen of the air, and of fixing itin any field he may wish to enrich. It fs a story of minute organisms which are in the aoil—or {f they are not there the jtarmer can put them there—which locate themselves upon the roots of ‘certain plants and give these plants power to store up in thelr roots to be left in the soil, {ts most valuable constituent of plant food, nitrogen. | Tell them whet the tassel and the silk of the corn are, and why one is at the top of the stalk aud the other much below it. Tell them why the blossoms of corn, oats, rice and wheat are colorless and oderless, and why the blossoms of cotton and the County Court Proceedings.

If the spirit of this meeting shall be reflected throughout the state, then the Dens arty will stend on solid ground. If we are Democrats we must have at least one common object, and that is to restore the Democratic party to unquestioned supremacy in Missouri, “Next year we are again to test our strength against the Republicans, and we must be ready, Except for the misfortune of having such splen- did Democrats as were on our ticket defeated, it may be that it is well enough to let the Republicans have the oftives fora term. They can’tdo apy good, of course, but we ean keep them from doing any harm. To let them hold the reins and drive the wagon for awhile will make them feel better aud more like saying some- thing decent abont the state instead of forever beruting is, and, as I have said, they cannot, under our watch- ful supervision, de any great harm while exercising their public functions, albeit indifiereutiy equipped for the service. “We will put Missonrl once more in i the lead of Democratic Common- wealths, and make ber example an aspiration tothe natlonal Demoe- racy.

Very few of our most valuablefruits are propa- gated by seeds; !n fact some are with- out fertile seeds. There was never but one Brother Jonathan apple tree or Sudduth pear tree growing on its own roots. Explain to the children why the seedsman sells no straw- berry seeds, Let the larger puptls understand plant breeding, as of corn, {n their garden, and tell them about the efforts being made to pro- duce better—better from a direct point of view—varleties of cereals, and a!so more hardy and more fruit- ful. The posstbilities in plant breed- ing are just dawning upon the farm- er, and are as fascinating to him as are Marconi’s diecoveries to the tele- grepber.

Let the children observe that all young wuimals upon the farm are at first without fear, and that she emo- tion of fearcomes only to preserve from harm, aad thas if tbe young things meet no harm, and early re- ceive kind usage, they will always be withoutfear.
