Twenty-Five to 100 Men to Be

1.-The Plans.

Armour & Co., who established in this
city on March 1 an egg and poultry
packing plant, are evidently determined
to keep pace with the upward stride of

cided, after three months trial as a
poultry and egg center, 10 make Mar
shalltown one of its central points in
Iowa and are now working to that end.
The company is putting in cold stor-
age capacity to cool 10000 pounds of
poultry daily and in a very short time,
within few weeks, the plant Will be
running In full blast, centering here

killed, dressed, cooled and shipped direct
to the eastern market-largely New

During the past three months or since
the company opened up its plant in the
city, eggs have been the feature of the
business. From now on, or until winter,
poultry will take the place of the eggs.
as but few of the latter will be handled
in the hot weather. In the future, how
ever, poultry is to be handled the year
laround.
To the T.-R. Mr. Banes said that his
company would In the next year pay out

There Has Been Much Progress Of

One feature of the progress OF the
South American States fl. the increase
of the number Of magazines n w
papers. A recent issue Of the Demo-
graphic Bulletin Of the Argentine Re
public gives some details Of the eve
opment Of printing and journalism IN
that country. The article calls atten-
ton to the fact that the first printing
office in .he region Of the River Pate
was established in 1705 by some jesuit
fathers at their missions In
They at first engraved blocks OF woou.
and later separated wooden types. In
It's they established the first printing
office in the Argentine Republic roper
That was at Cordova. When the Jesuit
Fathers were driven out, two years al
ter that, the printing office at
abandoned, but it was transferred
soon after to Buenos Ayres. There ~
called the Printing Office OF q
F%oundlings, as its earnings were
piled to the support of the foundlings.
It was continued until 1924.
The first newspaper In Buenos Ayree
was the Mercantile telegraph, which
came out in 1901. AT that time thera.
was no freedom for the press, Y the

the publication of newspapers, and
from that time on the number kept
growing larger.

Electrical Effects of Thunder Storms.
r. L%arroque, in Comics Rendus.
states that, being attracted by the pc
lculiar effect thunder storms at a dis
lance Of many miles often have upon
persons afflicted with certain nervous
diseases long before any instrument
now in use indicates any atmospheric
disturbance, it occurred to him that
Hertzian waves emitted by thunder
storms might possibly be transmitted
over enormous distances through the
middle and higher atmospher by some
means analogous to relays. In order
to test his idea he constructed a re-
cefver made Of g horizontal plate OF
zinc 40 en-. In diameter, earthed by a
thin copper wire containing a spark
gap located In q dark cellar. With
this device, in June, 1901, he made sev-
eral series Of nocturnal observations.
In one OF them the manifestations o
incided with the blizzard in the Cram
plans, and in another with the thun-
der storm which on the night Of June
10 was visible over Corsica. the sky.
being serene In both cases where the
observations we're made. M. Larroque
points out the Importance Of this char
acter of meteorological observation,
but ventures no explanation Of the
cause Of the transmission OF Hertzian
waves over such enormous distances
