All earnings resulting from the investment of moneys in the Missouri National Guard trust fund shall be credited to the Missouri National Guard trust fund.

Until the amount in the Missouri National Guard trust fund exceeds one million dollars, not more than one-half of the money deposited in the Missouri National Guard trust fund each year, plus all earnings from the investment of moneys in the trust fund credited during the previous fiscal year, shall be available for disbursement by the office of the adjutant general in accordance with sections 41.010 to 41.1000 and section 143.1003.
