yALENTINE's DAY, last Sunday,
l4th, and the love-sick SWANS aud the
ck-of-loye and silly swaineses who
did not receive handful Of wretched
five-cent colored daubs on Monday or
Tuesday are yet running to the post
office three times day and sending
their little brothers and sisters Ms
often, in hopes that the last fool re-
membered them just before he died
and grasped an envelope and stuck a
duub inside of il and one-cent stamp
outside, and superscribed 1t below the
blue stamp with the name of the par
ticular love-sick and silly, who is sick
est and siiiiest of them all. And half
the newspapers in the country are tell
lug how the day originated and who
st. Valentine WAS. And there are as
many stories about it as there are
Stiles running To the post-otilce.

Coon HORSES. county has
now more fine blooded horses than
any other in Iowa; and yet the stock
IL being increased. Mr.. Daniel Hunt,
of Swan township, who owns and OPP
crates one of the most extensive farms
In the county, and is a good represent
alive of our farming interests, return
ed last week from Illinois bringing
with him nine head Of grade Norman
mare coits--seven that will be one
year old the ensuing spring, and two
that are one year older. They have
from ! to ] Norman blood. Mr.. Hunt
made his purchases from the herds OF
E. Dillon & Co., of Normal, Illinois,
who are the most extensive breeders OF
Norman horses in the United States.
There are now in this county, and
owned by citizens of the county,
three imported stations, one stallion
and eleven grade mares, all purchased
from f. Dillon & Co., besides some

stallion in the spring. He purchased
last week from. Capt. S. s. Pierce, of
this place, a two-y ear-old ffliey, 4
Norman, weighing now 500 pounds.
and paid for her 1925. He will con-
tinue to increase and improve his herd
with the intention to make business
of breeding horses of this class now
becoming so popular in the West.
We are glad to notice and commend
such enterprise; and hope it will be
encouraged.
Every man in the county should re-
joice to see good-blooded stock-hor-
SEES, cattle, swine, sheep, ETC., coming
into the county. Our farmers are be-
ginning to realize that it costs more
to raise scrub animal than one of
good blood. and that at maturity the
latter is usually worth two or three
times as much as the former.

THE PELLA BLADE of yesterday
has nearly column of growl in ref
erence to the JOURNALS comments
on the PleasaptvilIe letter about rail-
road and county-seat removal last
week. 1t is colicky, and closes with this
paragraph:
" 1t is but justice to the citizens of
Knoxville who are anxious TO have n
road-from whatever source-to say
that the JOURNAL does not express the
sentiments Of a majority OF the people
in that region, as we happen to knoV."
Perhaps the Blade men have lived
here longer than anybody else, and
know more about the sentiments of a
majority of the people in this region,
and perhaps not. We shall copy its
article i'm full next week.

A METEOR of large proportions and
great brilliancy was seen from here
last Friday evening at about 10 o clock,
in northeast direction, passing APP
parently from southwest to north
east The splendor Of its light was so
intense as to arouse many persons
from sleep; its rumbling sound in
passing at high speed through the
air was distinctly beard, as well rs
the noise Of its explosion. Its appar-
ent size some persons say was rs large
as a mans head, others say as large as
barrel. and still others e1aggerate it
to the size of haystaek. 1t is men
toned by many of the papers in CEN
trail Iowa. The Ottumwa Courier OF
last Saturday, says:
An immense meteor fell last night,
i'm northeastern direction that illunii
mated the heavens for nIffes around.
It occurred aboat 10 o'clock. aud we
distinctly saw the fash Of its passage
through the sky, although the shut
tiers on the window from which we
! saw il were closed. Parties who were
out at that time of night sleighing saw
II, and said ii was so brilliant that it
blinded them, and frightened their
teams. One man saw IL seventeen
miles northeast of Ottumwa. and
numerous Others saw il at less dis
lance from the city.
The Register says: A gentleman
H.. -, 81
of Red Rock gives some incidents in
the history of the big meteor. Two
men from that village were fishing in
the river two miles from town, under
the shadow of an immense rock. Sud-
denly the place was lighted up with
more than midday glow. To the STAR
tied fishermen it appeared to arise
from the water. Terrified almost out
their fishing implements aud struck
out for their homes, nor cast one
lingering look behind"
The meteor crossed the river on Its
luminous way. and next awoke the
fears Of farmer between there and
Newton. The night WAS excessively
cold, and the farmer, with three big
daughters, was out caring for some
swine trfAI HduE flNeu lOUS enough
70 enjoy blizzard. Each girl had a
pig in her apron. and the old man had
two i'm his arms. Suddenly the scream
ing, blazing meteor appeared. Each
damsel thought il was some heavenly
visitant, or something from that other
place, and dropped the pigs in prayer
fui haste. The paternal ancestor in
continently played ostrich, running
his head into a hay stack, leaving the
coat-tail part of him to bear the attack
of the Evil One. BY the time the old
man got his nose full of hay seed the
meteor had passed, and the girls re-
covered sufficiently to inform him of
that fact. The aerial messenger was
travelling so near the earth at this
place that it clipped off branches from
the trees
The Keokuk Gate City says: {" A
falling meteor passed over the city
about 10 o'clock Friday night. Its
course from from southwest to north
east, and it was evidently very near
the earth. 1t was eblong in shape,
and apparently three or four feet in
length and about two feet in diameter.
II was followed by a long streak of
blue fire.
