Crop Bulletin.
For week ending May 10, 1902

ZOE week CHUNG May IL, 1SUl.
Des Moines, Iowa.
The first half of the week was cool and
wet, with excess of cloudiness; the last
half much warmer, with heavy local
showers in northern and central dis
tricts. The average temperature was
somewhat above the normal. Condi-
tons were highly beneficial to small
grain and grass, especially in sections
where the rainfall was abundant; but
there was considerable delay in corn
planting operations. The work, how
ever, is we'll advanced in large part of
the state, and in early planted fields a
fair stand has been secured and cultiva-
ton is in progress. The reports show
about the usual amount of damage to
corn by cut worms and wire worms, and
some replanting will be necessitated.
The early potato crop is very promising,
and garden truck generally is we'll adj
vanced. The ideal condition of the soil
and subsoil is the most encouraging fea-
ture of the crop situation, and prepare
ton for seeding and planting has been
unusually thoro ugh. The orchard fruits
give fair promise.

Decatur Clty's Appeal.

To the Citizens and Tax Payers of
Decatur County; please take notice
this appeals to you.
In view of the fact that we are now
being called upon to vote tax of $780,.
900 for the purpose of building a court
house at Leon, Iowa, we desire to state
few plain facts with reference to this.
We are confident, without any question,
that this building can be built without
this enormous tax being placed upon
the shoulders of the tax payer. Believ.
ing this to be so, the citizens of Decatur
City, vicinity and the west part of the
county met in mass meeting Tuesday,
May 6, 1902, and decided that in the
event of the citizens of Decatur county
on the 9th day Of May, 1902, refusing
to bond themselves for 100000 to build
this court house at Leon, Iowa;
Resolved, That they would begin
work Immediately and canvass this
county for signatures sufficient to call a
vote at the next general election for the
purpose of having the question of locat.
ing the court house and county seat,
and if successful in its being relocated
at Decatur City, Iowa, they will raise
the sum of 100000 and give to Decatur
county to build this proposed court
house.
The attention Of the tax payers is
called to the history of some of our
neighboring counties who have had ex.
perience in bonding themselves to build
court houses.
By order of the executive committee,

CONTRACT LET
For the New School House.

The contract for the new school house
in this city was let by the school board
last Friday, after the board had put in
two days figuring with the various bid
ders. On account of the sharp advance
in the prices of all building material the
board were confronted with difficult
problem in the way of letting the con-
tract so as to keep within the limit of
the amount Of funds provided by the
sale of the SIS, 900 bonds and the salvage
of the old building, but finally by cut
ting out some of the items, such as
cement floors in the basement and other
things which can be finished up later,
the contract was let to the firm of Ems
low & Hoagland, of Charlton, for $17,-
244.30, the salvage of brick and lumber
in addition. to the bonds being about
this sum. The bids submitted to the
board were as follows:

Our school district is now assured of a
beautiful and substantial building which
was designed by the we'll known firm of
architects, Libbe, Nourse & Rasmussen,
of Des Moines, The building is two
stories and basement, containing four
grade rooms on first floor, two grade
rooms, high school room, ten recitation
rooms and principals office on the sec.
ond floor, and there are also two grade
rooms in the basement, but these will
not be finished at present, but are built
so they can be fixed for primary use
when needed in the next few years. 1t
is planned for inside closets which will
be added later. The basement will be
five feet above ground, constructed of
Dudley stone, the walls above being St.
Joe pressed brick with Bedford stone
trimmings. The interior finish is all
soak and the roof is slate. The building
will be handsome structure and it has
been decided to locate the building
about the center of the grounds. There
are three entrances, on the east, north
and south. The contract calls for the
completion of the building by the 18th
of October, and the contractors have
promised to rush the work and have it
completed earlier if possible. Enslow &
Hoagland, the contractors, are reliable
firm who have had a great deal of ex-
perience in building, having built the
fine new court house at Charlton, the
new S2S, 900 high school building in that
city and numerous brick blocks in that
and other cities.
