7HREsHER's COMBINE,
cerro Gordo County Farmers Will
Have to Deal With Combine.

Special to Times Republican.
Mason City Aug. 1i.-lt is now
known that the threshers of this county
have formed a combine but i is
thought there is little of the trust in
it, 1t is true that the threshers nave
an organization in this county, but the
organization is not to put up the price
on grain threshing it is to further IN
sterests in other ways. For instance,
John Jones. happens to be farmer
who has thresfng done each year, and
has the faculty to stand off the thfesh-
ing bill. and eventually get out OF pay
ing for ii, altogether. This is the pur-
pose of the organization to get each
others experience and to establish a
rating among customers The conse-
uuence will be that John Jones Will pay
cash for his threshing as soon as the
job is completed. The prices that are
charged by the threshers are not eX-
horbitant and within range of all out
side competition and it is not altogether
probable that farmers will take any
steps as has been reported, to form
cooperative society and put in their
own machines. Let harmony prevail.

the fire WAS of incendiary origin, as no
one occupied it, At present students
being away on vacations and the
watchman was near the premises sew

will be small to the state as plans for
a new building involved tearing down
the whole structure. What the motive
of the fire bug was is only conjecture.
Our fire department and many citizens
went out to the grounds, bat could only
save a little furniture and allow the
building to burn. Burning of the build
