Ecedina Conditions in Iowa.

Conditions in Iowa are very pecuiia.
this year" said John Hadenfeldt, OF
Storm Lake. who was in Chicago Tues
day, to the Drover's Journal. "One To-
cality has an abundance of corn, while
only few miles away empty cribs are
exhibited. 1t wasn't frost that hurt
us, but excessive humidity. The de-
stroyed portion of the crop never
reached that stage of maturity where
frost had an opportunity to injure it.
Last year our corn was hopelessly dam
aged by frost; this year we were
drowned out and have none. While a
few miles away the yield was large.
We can get all the new corn we want
at So cents. but the quality is generally
poor and few are in the humor to feed.
Taking Iowa as a whole conditions
are more spotty than ever before.
Wherever the land lays low you will
find little corn, elsewhere the yield was
excellent Drainage is enjoying boom
in consequence and pretentious pro-
jects for relieving the land of surplus
moisture are being Matched every
where.
What feeding is done in northwest
ern Iowa this year will be on the
quick-return plan From 90 to 100
days will be the limit of the feeding
period. Everyone Is figuring on quick
returns and unless the heavy cattle
now so unpopular in market circles
are made elsewhere killers will soon
find them very scarce. They are going
to make a good deal more beef than
they did last year on the same quanti-
ty of feed.
Northwestern Iowa hasn't as big
hog crop as last year. but the general
pig health Is good. Where corn is
scarce they will be marketed light, but
wherever feed is abundant the ten
dency is to hold hogs and get them
weighty, as at present prices pork
making is more profitable than beef
and less risky. Few hog growers care
to part with their stock at less than 4
cents altho most shippers bid only
s3.75M3.S5. a fact responsible for hold
ing them back. Whenever shippers
can pay cents in the country hogs
will go forward. Nearly everybody
holds the opinion that the hog mark-,
has seen its low spot for the sea son
and il hogs are marketed light from
now on 1t will be owing to lack of corn.

Mrs. Harriet Z. Wilson. of the firm
of Nickerson & Wilson of WickenburE.
is in the city and will be here for q
few days preparing for the first issue
this season OF the Arizona News. This
paper, as all who have lived here for a
year are aware is now three years old
and IS a weekly publication with tire
exception &C the fact that it susDends
for q few weeks every summer during
the dun season. The suspension. Of
course. is not for want of funds. but
by reason of the fact that it's mission
is to let the world know what is DO
ing i'm these parts in an industrial and
investment way and through the heated
term there has hitherto been but few
new enterprises inauSurated. The
paper is circulated on all railroad
trains in this section and sent by rail-
way com panies to their eastern Offices
for distribution. They report that the
demand for it equals that of any pun
Iication available by the class of peo-
pie the railroads supply. Mrs. Wilson
says she has met with very flatterins
encouragement for the initial Issue this
wear.
Wickenburg. says Mrs. Wilson. is
still rather quiet as the effect OF tie
new enterprises thercabOut has not Yet
been felt, though there are fine pros
poets for the season and the REGULAR
voluIhe of business transacted is muca
greater than many suppose. Never !n
the history of the camp has so much
mining machinery been received as is
now coming in from time to time ana
mine operators are greatly ENCOURAGED
by the prospects. The best results arc
hoDed for through the probable work o.
the new smeiter. not alone for the
benefit of the immediate owners bu:
all the mine owners in the district.
Many of them viii furnish ore fCr
the ssmelter and even those who do not
cannot but profit from the increasing
interest IN the district.
The Electra mine. She says, is work
ing regularly though only a small
force is employed. \ good quantity Of
the Electra ore is now at the smelter
awaiting reduction and more will he
ready when Il is needed.

REMOVING a LANDMARk-An old
adobe building, that stands on east
Washington street opposite the Lemon
hotel is being removed mainly for the
reason that It was an unsightly struct-
ure. too badly out of repair to be
rented and dangerous to the public
through the fact that it was liable any
time to fall down and kill somebody.
A part of the building did fall down a
couple of years ago on the same day
it's last tenant moved out. The build
ing is an old landmark and is 4 part of
what was once known as the WormSer
block. II was standing in 1917 and
how long it was built before that no
one seems to know exactly. While it
is now a ruin its old roof in the early
days sheltered many of the leading
families of this city. some of whom
now live in stately brick structures.
