SCOUT
TAX-FREE
MONEY MARKET
FUND
A no-load mutual fund
principally invested in
short-term municipal
securities seeking to provide
maximum income exempt
from federal income tax
consistent with safety of
principal and maintenance
of liquidity.
Annual Report
June 30, 1998
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS
Scout Tax-Free Money Market Fund earned 0.78% for the quarter ended June
30,1998. The Fund's 7-day current yield on June 30 was 3.12%. The Fund
principally invests in short-term municipal securities, and seeks to
provide maximum investment income exempt from federal income tax
consistent with safety of principal and liquidity.
Money market funds are neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S.
Government. There is no assurance that the fund will maintain a stable
net asset value of one dollar per share. Income from the fund may be
subject to the federal Alternative Minimum Tax as well as state and
local taxes.
The Fund finished the quarter with a 30-day annualized yield of 3.14%,
versus an average of 3.08% for tax-free money market funds overall.
Short-term tax-free yields were roughly 30 basis points higher than at
the close of the first quarter. While the availability of attractive
assets was low, cash in-flows also were light and this supported short-
term rates.
The broad market appears to be positioning for a reduction of the Fed
Funds target rate, now at 5.50%. We still do not believe that economic
data point clearly to a rate move in either direction by the policy-
making Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). In fact, the FOMC has kept
a bias toward increasing the Fed Funds rate.
The Fund has maintained what we consider a substantially higher level of
credit quality than the average fund. We do so by avoiding "weak"
issuers that rely heavily on credit enhancement for their ratings. The
Fund also will maintain a moderate average maturity in the 15- to 25-day
range, consistent with our reluctance to predict the direction of
interest rates.
The Fund's investment management style should continue to make it an
outstanding option for investors in the upper tax brackets who seek
solid yields with top-tier credit quality.
Investment Officer J. Eric Kelley of UMB Investment Advisors has
participated in managing the Fund during the past two years. He will be
responsible for the Fund in the future, continuing the investment style
that our shareholders have come to expect. Look for his name on future
shareholder letters.
We appreciate your continued interest in the Scout Tax-Free Money Market
Fund and we welcome your comments and questions.
Sincerely,
/s/William A. Faust

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - The
Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
as a diversified open-end management investment company. The following
is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by
the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies
are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Investments - Valuation of securities is on the basis of amortized cost
which approximates market value. Investment transactions are recorded on
the trade date. Investment income and dividends to shareholders are
recorded daily and dividends are distributed monthly. Realized gains and
losses from investment transactions are reported on the amortized cost
basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.
Federal Income Taxes - The Fund's policy is to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to
regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable
income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision
is required. At June 30, 1998, the Fund has an accumulated net realized
loss on sale of investments for federal income tax pur-poses of
$100,966, which is available to offset future taxable gains.
Amortization - Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are
amortized over the life of the respective securities.
Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
2. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES -The aggregate amounts of security
transactions during the year ended June 30, 1998, were as follows:
Other than
U.S. Government U.S. Government
Securities Securities
Purchases $ 225,245,715 $ -
Proceeds from sales 267,297,450 -
3. MANAGEMENT FEES - UMB Bank, n.a. is the Fund's manager and
investment adviser and provides or pays the cost of all management,
supervisory and administrative services required in the normal operation
of the Fund. This includes investment management; fees of the custodian,
independent public accountants and legal counsel; remuneration of
officers and directors; rent; and shareholder services, including
maintenance of the shareholder accounting system and transfer agency.
Not considered normal operating expenses and therefore payable by the
Fund are taxes, interest, fees and the other charges of governments and
their agencies for qualifying the fund's shares for sale, special
accounting and legal fees and brokerage com-
missions. UMB Bank's management fees are based on average daily net
assets of the Fund at the annual rate of .50 of one percent of net
assets. Certain officers and/or directors of the Fund are also officers
and/or directors of Jones & Babson, Inc., which serves as the Fund's
underwriter and distributor.
4. SUBSEQUENT EVENT - Subsequent to the Fund's year-end, the Fund name
will change to UMB Scout Tax-Free Money Market Fund, Inc.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
of Scout Tax-Free Money Market Fund, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Scout Tax-Free Money Market Fund, Inc., including the statement of net
assets, as of June 30, 1998 and the related statement of operations,
statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the
periods indicated thereon (periods presented prior to June 30, 1996 were
audited by other independent accountants whose reports thereon expressed
unqualified opinions). These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
verification of securities owned as of June 30, 1998, by confirmation,
or by the application of alternative auditing procedures with respect to
unsettled portfolio security transactions. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Scout Tax-Free Money Market Fund, Inc. as of June
30, 1998, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets
and the financial highlights for the periods indicated in the first
paragraph, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
