Missouri agriculture has reached that stage of development where {t is necessary for us to feed our plants, just as we feed ouranimals. The time was, when we had abundant range that we scarcely considered it necessary to feed our farm stock. Until now, our. soils have been rich enough so there was no necessity for feeding our plants. That thisisa liveissue with the Missouri farmer is evident by thefact that he paid this fall for commercial fertilizers, that is, for artifical plant food, over one third of a million dol- lars, The commercial fertilizer bill of the farmers of Pennsylvania {s every year more than five million dollare, and increasing annually. This indi- cates what we are coming to. Upon the rational feeding of the plants, or upon the rational handling of the soil, reste a permanentlp pros- perous, agriculture. An improper handling of our soil will in the end bring disaster. A soil becomes poor or unproduc- tive from acombination of causes, the chief ones being the removal of the plant food in the crops sold off, in the washing of the surface, and in the burning of the vegetable matter through continuous cultivation, 80 as to leave the soil heavy, clammy, and not resistent to drouthe.

These are the three elements which the farmer pays for. when he buys commercial fertilizers.

As a rule we don't use or refer to testimonials in addressing the public, but the above remark and similar expressions are made so often in connec- tiort with Scott’s Emulsion that they are worthy of occasional note. From infancy to old age Scott's Emulsion offers a reliable means of remedying im- proper and weak develop- ment, restoring lost flesh and vitality, and repairing waste. The action of Scott's Emulsion is no more of a secret than the composition of the Emul- sion itself. What it does it does through nourish- ment—the kind of nourish- ment that cannot be ob- tained in ordinary food. No system is too weak or delicate to retain Scott's Emulsion and gather good from it.

Iam strongly in favor of admitting Oklahoma and I.dian territory as a state and shall recommend to Congress that this be done without further delay.” President Roosevelt made this acetment to the Okluhoma and Ta- dian territory delegation who called on him and gave the resolutions adopted by the single statehood con- vention in Oklahoma City last July.
