Rain Brings Much Relief.

The rain Of Friday night came as q great
relief to the citizens Of Council Bluffs, es-
pecially those who lived on paved streets,
which had been subjected to Alderman HUI
ber's peculiar method Of cleaning. A few
days before the democratic primaries AL
derman Huber, democratic representative
from the First ward and chairman OF the
streets and alleys committee, had a large
force Of mel put 70 work cleaning the
paved streets. The dirt was scraped into
heaps along the cutters and there left to
dry with the aid Of the sun and wind and
no attempt to haul 1t away In wagons for
several days. Then the wind commenced to
blow and the dirt heaps. which had be-
come dust. we're scattered everywhere,
principally into the residences and business
houses along the streets so cleaned. The
manner in which the dust was blown about
the streets Friday was terrible and COM
plants about the manner In which Chair
man Huber conducted the street cleaning
department were heard on every side. Com
plant is made that over $4,000 has been ex-
pended by the streets and alleys committee,
Of which Alderman Huber is the boss, dur
ing the last fiscal year and that there is
practically nothing to show for It.

The railroad records show that 2, ,229,

46, 600 crates of 4S quarts each, or, in

section. The pickers got $33, 444; the
crate manufacturers, $16,2 and the
farmers, at an average of cents a
quart above expenses, S111, ,4SO. The
strawberry season has been the most
successful in the history of strawberry
culture. There has been a good yield,
while in many sections of the country
nearly the entire crop was destroyed
by continued drought, enabling the
farmers there to get good prices
throughout the season.
Blackberries, raspberries and apples
are now being shipped, and are paying
well. There is a large acreage anG
good yield of wheat; the railroad esti
mate as to the number of baskets o.

vile this season is 211, 900, and potatoes

JULY CORN REACHES 90 CENTS.
Those Having Corn On Hand are Watching
the Chicago market Closely.

Shorts in July corn got another hard
squeeze at Chicago yesterday when the
price went up to 80 cents, the highest
price since 1895, when corn touched 81.
Those still having corn on hand in
this vicinity are watching the market
closely. The cornered grain closed at
"a cents at Chicago Monday, and open
ing bids yesterday were 1886 cents,
with shorts doing all of the bidding.
It closed at 81 cents.
By noon the shorts had taken $50, 900
bushels, with an estimated profit of
$50, 900 to the manipulators who sold,
as their line, estimated at $4,000, 900
bushels, was bought between 81 and 60
cents. The pit showed no excitement,
speculation among traders being on
how long the Gates coterie would keep
its grip on the cereal and how high
corn would soar.

The sheep industry is greatly ham,
pered in some sections by dogs, which
kill the sheep for food. A sheep
breeder who made an investigation
rode over a wide territory in order TO
visit all who kept dogs. In response
to the inquiry. How often 10 you feed
your dog?" he found only one party
who made it point to feed his dog
regularly. There are thousands of
farmers who expect their dogs to find
their food. from somewhere. hence
the dogs are forced 10 forage or hunt
In order to exist. The breeder con-
cluded that if those owning dogs
would feed them the sheep would not
be disturbed.
