abstract for 1869 was compiled by Au-
ditor M. Z. Duff, while that for 1902 has
been compiled by Auditor j. G. Hempel.
The table shows that the difference in
valuation as made by the assessors is
only $613,5S0 between the years 1869 and
1902 In 1902 the valuation of property
in the county was s6.26O.S32, and in
1869 the total valuation was s5,646,752.
Mr. Hempel Furthermore points out
that in 1869 there were no railroads,
telepgraphs, express or telephone COM
panies in the county, and that these are
Tow valued at $596,237. SO that if this
property is taken into account, the val
uation for 1902 is but $4,000 greater
than it was in 1869. wi, m the county
was comparatively new.

Professor Holden Believes 1t Can Be
Made Profitable Crop.
Ames, April 7.--"Wheat can be raised
with great profit in Iowa notwithstand-
ing the reports that the state will new
er again be great wheat state" said
Professor Holden, of Ames college, an
authority on grains.
I'VE will soon take UP the breeding
OF wheat and 1 hope to be able to accli-
mate the best Minnesota soil and thru
culture to make wheat one Of the big
staples of the country, as 1t used to be.
l am sure that wheat can be raised In
many counties In Iowa TO a great deal
better advantage than the oats that
now occupy the SOIL
There is practically no limit in
grain breeding. 1t is Just now being
taken up. We are entering an era that
will not end until the yield of wheat,
barley, corn, oats and rye is doubled.
The breeding of oats, rye. ETC.. has not
been studied before. The field has no
limit / hope that ten bushels per acre
can be added to the yield of all grains
in Iowa before a score of years have
passed"

SUPREME COURT NEWS.
Decisions in Cases Hold Over From
Earlier Terms, to Be Filed This

i
| Des Moines, April THE judges of
| the supreme court are here this week
to render few opinions which they
are supposed to have ready for an
nouncement. The first two to put in an
appearance were Judges Bishop and
Ladd and they are excusable from the
fact that both have recently had their
salaries greatly increased by the deci-
sion of the attorney general and both are
now getting a little matter of $4,000
year more than their associates. The
decisions that will be filed this month
are those which were submitted at the
January term or were submitted at the
October term and held over for one
term. The court seldom holds any case
over a term unless there is disagree
ment or it is q case involving the con-
stitutionality of law. Decisions are eX-
pected in number Of criminal cases
at this time as 1t is the policy of the
court to dispose of criminal cases as
promptly as possible. The following
are some of the criminal cases which
have been submitted and are in the
hands of the judges:
State VS.. S. G. Thiele, Montgomery
county.
State vs. Adams Express company.
Madison county.
State VS.. S. c. Kirby, Greene county.
State VS.. Mark Vance, Wapello coun-
ty.
State vs. NJ. j. Higgins, Pottawatta-
mie county.
State vs.. w. w. Ames, Dubuque
county.
State VS.. Edward Dennis, Page
county.
State VS.. NJ. o. Clemens, Hardin
county.
State VS.. Walter Anderson and
Frank Reno, Wapello county.
State VS.. George Swift, Pottawatta-
mie county.
State We. John Williams, Polk county.
State VS.. James Babbett, Polk county.
State VS.. E. B. Wiley. Polk county.
State VS.. d. d. Donahue, Polk county.
The Adams Express company is an
other of the many liquor cases coming
to the court. The case against Kirby
involves the regulations for quarantine
in smallpox cases. The case against
Ames is one for embezzlement. The
Clemens case is for murder. There are
no cases in the list of unusual import |
ance or involving anything intricate.
