stream was from the "Siamese twins"
nozzle, fed by four lines of hose. This
nozzle was instrumental In checking
the fire when 1t communicated to the

not account for the outbreak. Mr..
Jayne, his business partner. says the

will not be able to recover the insur-

they failed to have the policy trans

the property, places a higher valuation
on the same than some Of the other

Boone BowIers Sore and Want Actio,
IN Their Monev-A CHALLENGE.

Boone BoWlers Sore and want Action
on Their Money-A Challenge.
The Boone Republican of Tuesday
evening intimates that the bowlers of
the Boone team are sore over reports
that have been published in the state
papers about the good scores of bowl
ers in other parts Of the state, particu-
larly Marshalltown. The Boone paper
says:
I'm Marshalltown recently one of
their local bowlers rolled an average
of 205 in four games at bowling and
called that the state record. 1t was
published far and wide, and the fact
that Boone had bowling team was
Host sight of. That hurts. Boone's
team has the best record of any aggre-
cation west of New York city, and it's
individual members have world beat
ing averages in from three to ten con-
secutive games. Two members have
rolled perfect games this season. No
where else west of Chicago has the
same game been scored within the past
year. With the desire of proving the
above assertions the following chal-
lenge is issued, papers please copy:
"It having come to our notice that
certain persons in Iowa are claiming
to hold the state record and individual
bowling championship, basing their
claims upon scores that are much lower
than we have made in similar contests,
we contend that we have made the
highest scores ever made in the state
and challenge any or all bowlers in the
state of Iowa to play series of games
(upon neutral alleys) with either of US,
individually, or with both of us as a
two man team, for a purse of from $50
up. q. r. Strong and A. L. Jenkins,

Mammoth Hay Farm.

Five thousand acres of swamp land
in Oregon, says the Hay Journal, will
be reclaimed and made to produce hay
If project set on foot by live stock
company shall prove successful. This
company has built dredge, with which
it proposes to dig a ditch sixty feet
wide and nine feet deep thru the center
of the swamp which covers large
proportion of Molheur county. BY
means of this ditch it is proposed to
drain the swamp and convert 1t into a
great hay field. 1t is estimated that
10000 tons of hay can be produced
annually, where now nothing but
swamp grass aourishes. A San Fran
cisco company has secured contract
to operate the dredge, and 1t is estf-
mated that two years will be required
to complete the ditch.
