BOOKS Greater Facilities for This Work Will be Provided in New Library Building. r In the new Library Building which} is now being completed at the Uni- versity of Missouri, one room will be set aside for the use of assistant librarians wh send out books to the people of the state.

Books will be sent eithér direct or. to libraries which will lend them to in- dividuals. ‘In the last year books have been [sent to 200 out-of-town borrowers, representing 102 towns. This is in addition to numerous package librar- iés for'debating teams. Persons who so desire may borrow package librar- ies on agricultural’ subjects, This material has to do with the raising of crops and live-stock, and with domes- tic economy. Borrowers are only re- quired to pay the cost of mailing or express. : The book stacks in the new library building will hold 250,000 volumes. When the two additional wings which are to be added to the structure are completed, the capacity of the stacks will be raised to 500,000 volumes. The new building is constructed of Bedford cut stone with Georgia gran- ite trimmings. Itis fireproof through- out. The wall of the stack roomsare of gray enameled brick. The Missouri State Historical So- ciety will have offices and a spacious reading room on the first floor. All the books of this society will be stacked in the building. The new library building will be occupied about August 1. War is Fought by Boys That war is fought by boys is a familiar truth that we often forget. But the records of our own civil war prove it overwhelmingly. The de- partment rolls show that in the great rebellion there were enlisted in the army of the north 2,778,309 men, and of these 25 were 10 years old and younger, 225 12 years old and under, 1,523 14 years old and under, 844,891 16 years and under, 1,151,438 19 years, and..under, 2,159,798 21 and under and 618,511 22 years and over. Thus the average of the whole army was 19.7 years. When the war thus takes away the manhood of the coun- try who can estimate the cost?—Chi- cago Post. ; Burn the Dandelion Crop To simply dig out your dandelion crop is not sufficient, according to a good authority. Once dandelion gets in full bloom the seed is far enough matured to grow. The yellow flower turns to a cotton-like condition and each seed has a pair of wings. The first gust of wind carries it into some- body’s lawn where it fastens its fangs | in the blue grass carpet and begins to gnaw. When you dig your dandelions; pile them until they dry, then burn them. That is the only way to destroy dan- delion. Unless. you totally destroy them they will sneak back into your lawn. : Joe Renick Dead. Joe Henry-Renick, aged 35 yerrs, died at the home of Joe R. Morrison in Kansas City Thursday, April 22, after a long illness of Bright’s disease. The deceased was a son of the late Dr. 0. F. Reniek and was born in Gertrude Jolley of Independence, Mo., who together with his mother and one sister, Mrs. J. R.. Morrison, survive him. The remains were brought to But- ler Saturday and taken direct to the cemetery where services were con- ducted by Rev. C. H. Ticknor. War Bets in’ New York.
