So remarkably large has been the de-
mand for the now widely noted work the
Rocky Mountain Tourist that an entirely
new edition has been Eeccssitated, and

edition was an elegant thing, the second
edition is really superb, and the Rocky
Mountain Tourist in its new form, royal
octave, thirty-two pages, printed on the
finest superseded, calandered paper,
handsomely bound with engraved cover
is without the slightest question the rich
est and most attractive book ever pub
lished of its description. All who con-

takes by starting before securing the

EEITon CHRONICLE:
Dear Sri subscribed for your wor-
thy paper last week, and as usual you sent
it the first pop. Thinking few words IN
regard to western Iowa might interest your
many readers, | concluded to write you
few lines, Small grain in this vicinity
is better than ever saw it. Farmers say
wheat will average 25 bushels per acre,
and cats 60 bushels per acre. Corn is
somewhat backward on account Of cold
weather while we were planting, but it
has done some Of the fastest growing !
ever saw corn do anywhere. Farmers in
this locality are harvesting their barley
and will commence on wheat about the
25th. Of this month. This is oEe Of the
finest counties in the, State Of Iowa, /
think. The land is quite rolling, and it
may rain one day and the next we can
20 out and pillow without any trouble. In
regard to the the grasshopJ'ers. some of
the old fogies back there in Tama County
and vicinity think the hoppers holy ter
ror, but there are better crops raised here
than there. 1t is true that the hoppers
deposited their eggs here last Fall and
this Spring Matched out in countless num-
beers, but as soon as they got their wings
they ssskinned out" and are leaving every
day, SO they are not 50 bad, ffter all.

During a recent visit to Chicago, we had
the pleasure OF stopping at the Matteson
House. 1t is large, fine IIctel situated
on the corner of Wabash Avenue and
jackson Street lit is comparatively new
having been built only five years. Its
rooms arc large, well ventilated and ele-
gantly furnished; its cuisine ranks with
the best hotels in the country: 1t is loca-
ted near enough to the business part of the
city, SO person can wdlk-the distance
being only from three to five blocks-to
all the principal stores, theatres, art gall
leries, Sc, AMI yet, being situated on t, e
Avenue, MS it is, it is almost as much re-
tired as if located in the country. Street
cars pass the door, SO if person does
not wish to walk they can step on a car
and go to any part of the city. Its man
ayers exert themselves to make the guests
stay pleasant, and it is, in fact, first class
House; and to be first class in Chicago,
the city of palace hotels, is no small dis
tinction. With all its advantages and
recommendations its rates are very low
only So, so per day for board and room.
We advise any of our friends going to
Chicago to give the Mattcson House q
trial
