CITY OF GUM cHEWERs.
Sioux City Pays $500 Every Month
for Its Gum.

Sioux City, Dec. 5.-''Do the people
of Sioux City chew much gum? Yes,
you bet they do said John c. More,
general manager of the Iowa Candy
company. And they are chewing more
right now than ever before. Every
month there is sold in Sioux City $4,000
worth of chewing gum. That would
fill a freight car about two-thirds
full.
"At 5 cents per package, you can
easily see that $4,000 worth every
month is going some. Why in Chicago
last year, there was over $150.O00,0OO
worth of gum chewed. have no means
Of knowing how Sioux City compares
with other cities of the state in chew
ing capacity, but / imagine none of
them has us backed off the map. In
the United States Cleveland leads the
list, with Chicago second and st. Louis
third
1T is fact that within the past two
years, the sale of chewing gum has al
most doubled. These days people seem
to have stronger jaws than ever before
due, no doubt, to constant practice and
/ presume this is why more gum is
chewed every month. Then, too, people
have come to recognize in some brands
of gum certain medical properties.
and they chew it to aid digestion as
well as to exercise their maxillary
machinery.
Chew Harder During Holidays.
"Of course just before Christmas we
sell more gum than at any other seas
on of the year. / can't explain the
T1r {ac u,
much the same all the year round, but
I suppose it's because people like to
eat sweet things at holiday times. We
can't tell whether we sell more gum to
girls than to boys, but I am of the
opinion that men chew gum as much
as do the members of the fair SEX

Problem of Organization and
Maintenance at Their
Highest Efficiency
SOME SUPPORT FROM THE STATE
In Some States saIaried Agent Is En-
pIoyed to Look After the County
Institutes and Exercise Some Super
vision Over Their Prosram-State
Supervision Is Favored.
Special to Times-Republican.

Des Moines, Dec. 5.-The problem OF
the organization and maintenance OF
the Iowa farmers Institutes at their
highest efficiency is again brought to
mind by the fact that a number of in
stitutes are being held this morning in
the state. The only legislation affect
plished at the last session was that OF
raising the amount to be paid each one
by the state from $50 to $75 and pro-
viding that each one might elect rep
resentative to the state farmers insti-
tute. This latter clause appears not to
have attracted the attention of theinsti-
tute people because they have not sent
very many delegates to the institute.
In time they will name delegates and
take an active part in the manage
ment of the state agricultural bureau.
But what was urged year ago and will
be urged again is some sort or state
supervision of the local Institutes. In
Illinois, New York and some other
states there Is a salaried agent who
gives assistance to the Institutes and
who has some supervision over their
programs. This is found to be useful.
FL. r. Wright, state dairy commissioners,
who has been out over the state at
tending farmers Institutes and local
dairy associations. calls attention to the
expensiveness Of the present hap
hazard system. He is to speak before
a meeting in one corner of the state and
the next day 200 miles away and so on;
whereas If there was state agent and
some supervision q circuit could be
formed and those who attend institutes
could go the rounds with little expense.
1t is this lack of system which pre-
vents many good speakers from attend
ing the institutes, especially those from
the colleges. State supervision would
result in much better programs and
much greater value to the farmers from
these Institutes.

TRAIN STRIKES HAND CAR.
Two Section Men Severely Injured
Near Cedar Rapids.

Cedar Rapids, Dec. 5.-Passenger
train No. of the Northwestern dashed
into a handcar yesterday and severely
injured two of the three section men
who were riding thereon. The accident
occurred few minutes before half past
z o'clock at a point mile south of
union station. 1t is miracle that the
men were not killed outright.
The names of the injured employees
of the company, who were taken to st.
Luke's hospital in the police ambulance
are Joseph Dampar, who is section
foreman, and Wencil Kral, his brother
in law. William Veida, the third man
on the car, escaped uninjured. The men
were going south to perform some
work along the track and were not
aware of the fact that passenger train
No. 8, which is due at $50, had not
arrived. Foreman Dampar had both
OF his legs broken below the knees, and
Kral, who is only % years of age, had
the right leg fractured above the ankle.
Neida, as stated above, was unhurt.
Kral was hurled considerable distance
and knocked down. Dampar was also
sent to the ground with great violence.
Wnen ne arose ne saw hTai dl lie SLUG
of the track about fifty feet from him
and believing that he was dangerously
hurt started to go to his assistance. He
had gone but a short distance when he
discovered that both of his legs were
fractured and that he could not stand
upon them. yeida was the only one of
the trio who could assist himself or
help the other men. The trainmen re-
ported the accident to the company's
surgeons and the wounded were
brought to the union station on stretch
ers. from where they were conveyed to
the hospital, where they received sur
gical attention Immediately. Dampar is

worked vigorously ever since election

allowed found they were short 12d
names.
Two years ago the petition carried by
a small majority, but by the efficient
work of the temperance people enough
names were withdrawn to defeat 1T by
twenty four. The result of the canvass
at this time indicates that people OF
the county have less use for saloons
and that it will be some time before
they will be re-established here.

While Hunting, viii Recover.
Special TO Times Republican.
Mason City, Dec. 5.-Loren Chaddock,
the man who suffered the gunshot
wound Wednesday afternoon while
hunting, was compelled to submit to
an amputation of the left foot, just
above the ankle. The wound had COM
pletely crushed the bone, so that there
was no possible chance of saving the
foot, and the amputation was made. He
is resting comfortably and the physi-
clans think he will rapidly recover.
Chaddock fortunately has insurance in
various Companies, which will be of ma
terial benefit. Nov. 90 Major Smith
insured him against accident in the
Union, of ST. Louis, and he will receive
$3.50 from this source. He was also
a member of the NJ. B. A, of this city,
and will get $3.50 from them. and 1t is
said he is also a member of the Wood
men, and will receive benefits from that
source.
