TUE ADVANTAGE OF AN EASTERN
MARkET.-A farmer from Lee county
was in town Saturday, selling his wheat.
He informed us that he got twenty cents
more in Burlington than he could in Ke-
okuk, and hence preferred to bring it here
though good deal further. Produce
dealers at the Gate would make money by
wagoning their grain, what little they get,
to this place. 1t is better than sending it
to st. Louis.

Gas Works.

.H =.
We Saturday visited the Gas Worss at
the upper end of Main St, and found the
buildings, fixtures, retorts and receivers
very nearly completed. The building in
which the Gas is to be generated is up but
not covered. The purifying house is up,
the roof is just on, and the whole will
soon be enclosed and ready for use. The
receiver, which is an immense cistern some
IS feet in diameter aud sixteen feet deep,
is walled with stone with brick one on
the inside of 1.-THE space between
the walls being filed with cement. This
is to contain the gas after its publication
and from this the supply pipes carry it to
all parts of the city. This receiver is
kept partially filled with water, for which
purpose iron pipes have been laid to a
spring sou,e eleven hundred feet distant.
The work of putting down pipe in the
streets is still progressing. The street
lamp posts will soon be put up. It is
probable that We shall Light the old year
out and the new one in by gas!
