Prof. Holden Of Ames, Iowa, the Iowa

away to every farmer in the state a
package Of pure bred seed corn.
The corn is Reeds Yellow Dent, the

been purchased in large amount, by
the Corn Growers Association, an as
sociation formed by George s. Forest,
superintendent of agriculture for the

in two pound packages upon receipt
Of enough money to pay postage, twen-
ty-five cents. This will plant one
fourth Of an acre and yield a large
amount of seed corn for the coming
year.
Farmers wishing the corn should
write to George S. Forest, at Miles,
Iowa, or to, Prof. Holden, at Ames.
Prof. Holden states that if Reeds yell
low dent is sown in the state there
will be little doubt but that the
yield will be increased in a very short
time.
A portion of the corn raised will
be used in the Iowa exhibit at the St.

Des Moines, April 9.-The supreme
court has decided that Walter w.
Ames, formerly of Des Moines, son-in-
law of DR.. E. c. Spinney, who was
convicted of embezzlement at Du-
buque, shallhave new trial. The case
was a complicated one. Ames was en-
gagged in closing up the business of the
Iowa Mutual Building and Loan as
ISOLATION. Father Zilgring demanded
$500 on certificate he held and Ames
gave him check. Ames notified Zil-
gring that there was 1872 in profits
also due but he would hold it until
the final settlement. The certificate
holaer got mad and made threats be-
cause of the withholding of this and
after he went out Ames decided he
would pay him. He had the stenog-
rapk<r draw a check which he cashed
and said he would settle with Father
Zilgring. That evening Spinney ar
rived from Des MOines and told Ames
not to settle. He also wanted $3.50 ex-
pense money and took the $32 .Ames
had just got on the check with SIT
from the cash drawer. He changed
his mind and went to Des Moines and
there deposited the money with the
treasurer Of the Home Savings and
Trust company. For alleged 'embez-
cement of the 1882 Ames was con-
victed. The court found that while
he was indicted under a statute relat-
ing to general embezzlement he was
under one relating to build.
ing and loan associations. This was
bad error and new trial necessary.

| Ames, April 9.--The board OF
trustees OF the Iowa State college
has decided to make an additional
appropriation Of $4,000 for the
erection Of the main building. The
action of the board was the result of
the building committee stating that
it was found impossible to so modify
and revise the original plans and
specifications as to enable it toreceive
BIDS that would lie within the limit of
the original appropriation of $685..
900 without making radical changes
in the size and general outline of the
building as originally planned by the
architects, and submitted to the
board at its meeting on March &c.
The lowest bid obtained on the build.
ing at that time Appropriated to
$350,0OO but it is expected that with
a few slight changes in the less i'm
portant features Of the structure,
such as ornamentation, furniture, ETC.,
the board will now experience no
difficulty in obtaining bids sufficiently
low as to be acceptable. It was
deemed advisable to receive separate
bids on different parts of the con,
struction of the building, such as
masonry, plumbing, heating plant.
ETC., in place of letting the contract
of the entire structure to one firm
1t is believed that the aggregate
amount of the various bids will be
less than if bids were obtained on the
building as whole.
The board has $55O,OO0 as a building
fund at its disposal at present. In
addition to the present 100000 ap
preparation for the main building.
$50,600 has been appropriated for the
erection of an addition to the present
agricultural building, "A new stock
pavilion and green house, out of this
fund, thus leaving only 100000 for
the proposed new agricultural hall to
be erected soon after the completion
Of the main building. 1t was feared
by the board thata,ry appropriating
the additional $4,000 for the main
building, the remaining 100000 would
be far too small an amount to erect
as large and pretentious structure
as would be able to meet the increas.
ing demands of the agricultural de-
partment as indicated by it's recent
rapid growth In such an emergency
it is the intention of the board to re.
quest the state legislature for an addi-
tional appropriation.
