Charles Barrett, president of the National Fanners’ Union lias issued a call- for a national muss meeting of stock men arid grain growers, to be hold in Springfield, Mo,, May 12. h This wilt be practically the first national meeting of tfie men engaged in stock and grain rais¬ ing r.xiid under the auspices of the union.

They went through the trying times of 1907 and 1908 without any-trouble, and they are now in the best of condition. The south is tire safe, sane and conservative portion of this union. The treaury department has decided to “beautify,, the one dollar bill; but, under certain conditions it has always look¬ ed as big and beautiful as a June sunrise.
