TIE LARGEST SINGLE ORDER FOR

A Noted Iowa Creamery Operator Or

Noted Iowa Creamery Operator Or
ders Five Hundred MT One Time.
W. 1. Moody, Iowa's greatest creamery
operator, estimates that it costs an average
OF 10 cts. per 100 lbs. to haul milk to a cream
cry and haul the skim milk away again
He is going to save all this by placing with
his patrons Dairy Separators, and have
wagons call for the cream.
In this way the farmer will get the full adj
vantage of the Separator and creamery sys-
TENS, will have the warm fresh skim milk
at home for stock feed and will not be at ex-
pense of carting his milk to a creamery.
Before ordering these 500 Separators, val
ued at over $4,000, the merits of all the
different Dairy Separators on the market
were very thoroughly considered and prac-
teal tests Were made by Mr.. Moody.
1t was finally decided that the Sharpless
Separators, made at West Chester, Pa,
were the most desirable and best made ma
chimes, and though costing a little more
money, it was thought they were well worth
the difference asked, and the order was
given to that company.

In Superior Court this morning
| the ease OF Waterfall VS.. Kennan, to sheW
cause why the sale of ex-Sherif. Gillla
should not BIO set aside, on the ground OF
gross inadequaney of price, occupied con-
siderable time. William $. Hllles mp.

the New Castle Mutual insurance Com.
pany held an $3.50 mortgage against the
property, which is at No. 905 Stroud. street
and Judgment of $500 was also against
1t. Yet the property sold for but $3.50 He
called VIM. s. Medholt. Joseph l.. Car.
penter and James Il. Keenan, who swore
that the property wos worth from 81 900
to 81, 400 at this time. Mr.. keenan, stated
the property cost him 81, 450 Mr.. Hoffeck-
er's witnesses, George ii, Townsend said
the property should have brought OF least
$500
This was all the testimony and both
lawyers went into argument, Mr.. Hof-
fecker's strongest point being that the
property would cost the mortgage holder
$1,000 before he could secure a title. The
court will give its decision on Monday.
