The Meeting last night.-Hon. j. r. Doc
LITTLE, U. S. Senator from Wisconsin, ad-
dressed our people last evening on the state
Of the country. Overman's large hall was
completely filled,-a large proportion Of the
audience being ladies. At this late hour we
have no time for an extended notice, but can
not do less than say that the effort of the
distinguished speaker was learned, eloquent
and dignified exposition of true Union senti.
ments. The speech abounded in sound rea-
soning, and the truth and justice Of the
arguments advanced made clear by apt and
forcble illustrations The earnest attention
he received from his large auditory showed
that the address was one Of those calculated
to exert powerful influence on the minds Of
its hearers. We noticed that delegations
were present from Waterloo, Independence,
and other points in the vicinity of this place.

Il cord to TURNER'S and Wool Grouers.-
The clipping season is over, and the wool
gathered in. The question now to be settled
by the owner is as to what disposition he ca n
make of his wool, to nett him the greatest
amount Of profit. The present wholesale
price of wool would pay the owner say $50
for 100 TBS. The cost of putting that wool
into yarn, $40. That 100 lbs of wool will
make 40 dozen pairs Of socks, now in de.
mand even, when, at $3.50 making 1920, a
profit Of $40 on the manufactured article
over and above what could be realized from
the sale Of the raw material. AS knitting
machines cost but $50 in this city, and can
be managed by woman or child, any farm.
or who raises wool can SEE the advantages of
manufacturing his wool, instead of throwing
it upon the market. We hope the country
press will take hold Of this and thus advance
the interests of the farmer, and the whole
country. by encouraging this branch Of home
manufactures.
