Farm Machinery Costs More.
The expected rise in the price OF
farm machinery has been announced
by the dealers. 1t amounts to from
five to twenty-five per cent. The
smaller advance is on the heaviest
machinery. Threshers, portable en-
gines and harvesters, for example,
will be advanced about five per cent,
while smaller stuff, like plows, culti-
vators, rakes, and even mowers. will
be advanced perhaps as much as 20
or 25 per cent. The circulars an
nouncing the rise have been received
by the implement men all over Iowa
the past week. The dealers have been
urged, particularly, that there must
be no deviation from the listed and
published prices. This is a rule which
has not been followed heretofore,
but the implement men say it will be
followed the coming year. The high
er price of steel is given as the rea-
son for the advance in the farm i'm
plement manufactures using steel.
The higher wages are said also to be
in part responsible.

Will Rebuild Factory.
The United States Corn Products
company has decided to rebuild i'll
Des Moines the starch factory which
was destroyed by fire about six
months ago. For a time it was
thought that the structure would
never be rebuilt. 1t is now planned
to have three large factories in the
United States, all of the business be-
ing concentrated at the three. They
will be located at Des Moines, Wau-
kegan and Buffalo. A glucose fac
tory will be established in Des
Moines also. The United States Corn
Products company is a consolidation
of the National Starch company and
the American Glucose Sugar COM
pany. The latter company owned the
glucose factory at Marshalltown, la.
Whether this will be continued to be
operated is not known. The glucose
plant TO be erected in Des Moines
will be the largest in the country.
1t is now announced that the glucose
plants at Davenport, Ia; Peoria, ILL.,,
and other smaller points will be
abandoned.
Coming to Dec MOines.
The Iowa Implement Dealers asso-
citation has decided to hold it's annual
convention in Des Moines December
2, 3 and 4. The Des Moines dealers
refused during the first three years
of the life of the association to close
their places of business during the
sessions of the convention. There
fore the association held its fourth
convention in Marshalltown. This
year the Des Moines dealers agreed
to close their places during half of
each day, and on this concession the
executive committee of the associa
ton decided to meet here again.
The retail hardware dealers con-
vention will be held in Des Moines
the second Wednesday in February.
Jacob Siether, of Keokuk, is chair
man Of the executive committee.
Causes q Flutter.
The big packing houses of Chicago.
Kansas City and Omaha have shipped
large consignments of goods to their
local houses throughout Iowa with a
view TO engaging in a general COM
mission business. Fruits of all kinds
and vegetables will be handled for
Wholesale trade. The announcement
has caused futter among the COM
mission houses in Des Moines, which
fear a cut in price that will demoral-
ize the trade.
