ottumwa. April so.-It has been re-
ported, on what is said to be reliable
authority, that the Milwaukee has Sc
cured an option from the Burlington on
the old FIT. Madison road from Batavia
to Ottumwa, with a view of bringing Its
trains to this city from Davenport via
Batavia, and has asked for bids for the
constrIction of a line between these two
points. The proposition is declared to
be practicable, inasmuch as the Mill
waukee has been making numerous sur
veys for new line from Davenport to
Jntersect With its Kansas City branch
at some point either in or near Ottunl-
wa. Any OF the proposed new routes
wouldreduce the distance between Dav-
EXPORT and Kansas City several miles.
and should the Milwaukee carry out the
above project and come to Batavia it
Will, it is said. gain several advantages
over other routes which have been sur

LABOR AND BEET suGAR.

lhOckIOrQ Register.
Asserious barrier to the beet sugar In
9terests in the corn belt is the existing
scarcity of labor. Farm help is becon,-
ing higher priced each year and nothing
Is harder to get in the locality where
the writer lives than good man willing
to work on the farm, unlessit be a good
girl willing to work in the farm home.
How is lone man with twenty-five
acres of corn needing blowing and ten
COWS to milk night and morning to take
care of five acres OF beets? That's the
problem we find 1t hard to solve. The
ibeets will grow, no doubt about that;
they will make sugar and lots of it, no
doubt of that: 1t Will pay to grow them.
no doubt OF that, but where is the help
to come from? Our American girls don't
take kindly to outdoor work. neither can
we get them to milk the COWS, and then
IL they would, there is only very few
kids in the average farm home. 1t looks
as If the sugar beet, the foreigner, the
big family and women with no up-to-
date notions will naturally affiliate,
while the corn, hog and COW western
farmer will prefer to make 80 on an
acre Of corn rather than $40 on an acre
of sugar beets.

THE PROPOSED RAILROAD.

The projectors of the proposed rail-
road from Dubuque west, thru this
county and on southwest, claim their
line will positively be built. They have
held several meetings of late and say
everything is going their way. Two
routes are under consideration one thru

other thru Traer. I4aPorte. etc. Instead

to ToleGo. The line in view runs up Deer
creek along the Northwestern several
miles. then into Howard. Crystal, on to
Wolf Greek valley and down to Traer.
One Of the directors Of the company has
written asking what Traer is willing to
do to get this road. in the way of taxes,
right OF way. etc. He intfmates that d
5 per cent tax will be necessary TO Sc
cure It, and that the right of way must
not cost on an average to exceed SIS per
acre thru north Tama. We understand
some representative OF the COMPANY
Will be In Traer in the near future to
confer with the citizens. "A surveying
party is also expected before long. One
fact should be borne ii, mind by our pso-
pie IN considering this new enterprise
namely that Traer is about 100 miles
from Dubuque by the proposed route,
ana that We would be likely to be made
a division point. This would add from.
200 to 500 people to our population. The
Commercial Club will give the matter
due consideration when the time comes.
