Does it then stabilize at 4 hours precisely? In Missouri, which I
believe is currently at 4 hours offset from UTC?

If so, I'd suggest that you've done something unfortunate with your
timezone and related settings, though personally I'm having trouble
coming up with a model where ntpdate gives you the result you expect and
ntpd doesn't.  What timezone do your kernel clock and your CMOS/hardware
clock believe they're in?
