Who Are They?

While on the train to Des Moines last
week we fell into conversation with a
gentleman from the tobacco raising por-
ton of Wisconsin. He expressed sur
prise that we were not raising tobacco
in Iowa, saying that it is very profitable
crop in his state. He thought that the
climate and the soil of Iowa was equally
as good as that of his state for this crop.
He said in Wisconsin tobacco land pro-
duced all the way from 500 to $l25 per
acre, and that almost every farmer raised
it. He has been visiting at Audubon
and said that number of farmers near
that town intended to experiment with
the plant this year. If tobacco pays as
reported it will beat sugar beet raising
as to value of product per acre, but not
as many acres can be titled. If the
plant can be successfully raised in Iowa
it would help to diversity the crops of
the state.-Coon Rapids ENTERPRISE.

LIES IhOlNES, LOWtt, 4hdy 4, IOo'
The first half of past week was warm
and the latter part unreasonabiy cool
temperature reaching the freezing point
But the rainfall was generally light, and
there has been a decided improvement
in weather conditions as affecting farm
work and the growth of vegetation. So
far as can be learned at this time no
material damage was caused by frost.
Good progress has been made in seed
ing, and in preparing the ground for
planting where the soil is dry enough
or field work. Greater advancement
has been made in the northern districts
than in the southern half of the state
than in tho southern half of the state
where the rainfall has much heavier
In the southern and central districts, a
considerable acreage of land intended
for wheat, oats and barley will be
planted to corn or other crops. And a
large area of bottom lands that were
cultivated during the recent dry sea-
sons will not be in condition to be farmed
this year.
Grass has generally made seasonable
growth and pastures now afford con-
siderable feed for stock. The prospects
for hay are unusually good.

The Iowa Treasury.

A few months ago there was great
ado over the possibility of Iowa getting
into debt. There was at that particular
time several hundred thousand dollars
OF warrants not paid for lack of funds,
or of demands which might be or soon
would be made on the state treasury
These facts or these possibilities were
made the basis of alarmist theories of a
large impending indebtedness. Some
/ insinuating that the amount might
reach a million dollars within year.
And it was true, in point of fact, that
/ the state had incurred large losses
| through fire at some of the state insti-
buttons not covered by insurance. while
on the other hand long continued hard
times had reduced the revenues and de-
layed payment of taxes. But now there
| is the cheering assurance that pessimis-
| tic prophecies have not been fulfilled.
Taxes have been paid into the treasury
SO that the outstanding Indebtedness or
liability has been reduced to compare
lively small and trivial figure There is
not the slightest danger of any
serious embarrassment or of state debt
in the shape of bond or other liquida
| ted amount running over long period.
| On the contrary, it can be now predict
ed with confidence that the state treasury
will soon be in comfortable condition.
The legislature at the extra session now
about to adjourn has greatly improved
the situation, cutting down many use
less sources of expense, effec ting SO
many economies that the aggregate
saving will be large, and at the same
| time by reforms in the revenue system
materially enhancing the income of the
treasury. While the revenue will be
increased it is so distributed that the
burdened will not be felt by the great
mass of the people, corporations or
classes favored by privilege contrib
utsng the principal part. Entirely "a
side from any general improvement of
industrial conditions, these reforms may
be relied upon to more than make good
the unusual and unavoidable expences
Of the government duripg the last two
years. 1t is well, indeed, that the peo-
| pie of Iowa are so scrupulous and watch
full as to their credit, and it is also we'll
that their public servants havo been and
are so ready to respond in suitable
manner to every exigency which arises.
No state in the union has been more
economical in the agairs of it's govern
meme or more regardful of it's financial
standing. In many states there is not
one-hrlf so much to show for the money
collected from Taxpayers in they way of
charities and state institutions as Iowa
has to day. No state has been more
generous in care for the insane, deaf
and dumb and other. unfortunates, and
to the credits of Iowa be it said that in
no other state has sucq trust moneys as
the taxpayers have contributed for such
purposes been so honestly and efficient
ly administered. Upon the whole the
state of Iowa has had splendid business
management, and it's credit never stood
higher than it does today.

Throughout the long journey, which

1t is one of the most valuable books
