Missouri, with her grows annually an average of a mil. Hon dollars’ worth of corn for each | county, and thé corn show at Sedalia fs second to that of no state.

STATE FAIR POULTRY SHOW. | Open to the World, and All Birds En- tered Free. T. E. Quisenberry. secretary of the Missouri state poultry board, is super Intendent of the big poultry show to be held in connection with the Mis: souri State Fair at Sedalia, Sept. 30 to Oct. 6. Missouri is not only a great poultry state. but. with surplus poultry products nmounting to $50,000.000 an nually and with many of America’s most famous breeders of premium birds. is the greatest poultry state. The show at Sedalia “has a license” to be big. and It is, in fact, “something to crow over.” . The liberal policy pur sued and the fair and square deal for every exliibitor, from the beginner to the biggest. has helped to make the Missouri meet of the feathered family a sweepstakes show. Competition is open to the world. Mis souri birds are good enough to show against the world. All birds are enter ed free of churge:“There is no coop rent, no fee for feeding, and exhib: | {tors are not required to purchase an / exhibitor’s ticket. This year a number of outside pens or runs will be provided for the use of exhibitors who -wish to show a large number of birds which they may have for sale. This arrangement will enable the stock to be seen under the | most favorable conditions. It will also | add much to the attractiveness of the | poultry exhibit, always a feature of | the Fair. | As will be seen from the premium | ists, which may be had free by ad- ‘dressing John T. Stinson, secretary Missouri State Fair, Sedalia, the mon- ey appropriated for poultry prizes has been increased, while the arrangement is such as to attract the actual breeder of poultry rather than the huckster. STUDEBAKER PICTURE SHOW. Entire Operation of World’s Greatest | Automobile Factory Shown at Fain One of the most striking features of | the Missouri State Fair will be the | complete operation of an automobile factory shown in a series of moving | pictures, which will present in detail | | the multiplicity of mechanical opera: | tions which eter into the construction of up to date automobiles. Tt seems almost incredible that the | | Work of a mammoth plant can be pre: | sented tu the eye, but as a matter of fact the picture films present a com. plete story and give a much better idea of the provess of building cars | than one can get by visiting a factory. | The noise is absent, but the wor ves | op step by step in a most fascinating | | way until the completed car logms | | into view. Few people have any ade | quate idea of the amount of work in: } | volved and the extreme care taken in constructing automobiles from the time the raw material is analyzed in i the laboratory until it is fashioned into | many parts and the car is finished. The educational value of these pic- tures cannot be overestimated, and the films will be shown to tbe patrons of the Fair through the kindn2ss of Mr. Walter E. Flanders, vice president and general manager of the Studebaker corporation, which builds the E-M-F | “30” and Flanders “20” cars in the largest automobile plant in the world. Prizes For Farmers’ Sons. A live stock judging contest for. farmers’ sons under twenty-five years | of age and for agricultural college stu- | dents, who, previous to this year, have never engaged in such a judging con test, will be held at the Missouri State | | Fair grounds on Monday, Oct. 2, be- | ginning at 8 o’clock in the morning in | the live stock judging pavilion.

RESPONSIBILITY To the Public: RESPONSIBILE banking is the policy under which this institution has been managed since the first day the doors were opened. , That this policy is appreciated is indicated by the constant and gratifying growth in business.
