for good to choice sters have shown
very appreciable gain, bulk of late
selling ruling 15@25c higher than at
the close a week ago.
Taking the whole week through
sales have been made on fairly salts
factory basis, and the general outlook
for future trade appears brighter than
few weeks. Receipts this week
dwindled down to a very moderate
numbering, with the usual Thursday
run omitted, standing at 6S,455, against
the big run of 90,091 last week, while
comparing with 72,145 year ago last
week. Receipts at six leading markets
were also more in keeping with the
general demand, combined marketing
at these points totalling 192.40O, against
10000 last week and $4,000 a year
ago.
This more modern volume Of Offer
ings has had the effect of stimulating
the local demand, and while trade on
the opening day ruled slow and weak
at lower prices, the Wednesday mar
ket under very meagre receipts reacted
sharply and trade then was one-sided
affair, statesmen having decidedly the
best of the day and forcing a gain of
85@25c on most lots. while many
went 40c higher than on Monday.
However, this hungry demand was not
of lasting character, and while choice
cattle sold steady, the common and
medium classes dropped off sharply,
bulk going 15@25e under prices noted
for such grades at the start of the
week.
Trade has been very uneven again
all week, and while some sellers quoted
prices for the lower grades only steady
on Wednesday there We're others who
quoted these at the same advance as
was scored on god to choice classes.
General eastern demand has ruled bet
ter than last week, the beef trade In
eastern quarters being less glutted
than in the past month, though condi-
the greater demand for poultry also
affecting trade at eastern quarters as
| we'll as the local demand.

ENGINE BLOWN UP.
Santa Fe Locomotive ExpIodes a
Pontoosuc, ILL.,, Killing Two Men.


Fort Madison, Nov. 28.-By the sud
den explosion of LOGON olive on the
Santa Fe way freight near Pontoosuc
ILL.,, Saturday evening two men were
instantly killed and third badly in
jured. The bodies lie buried under
tons of twisted iron and steel and are
probably mangled beyond recognition.
The dead:
FIREMAN HARVEY, of Fort Madi-
son.
BRAKEMAN FORSYTH, of Fort
Madison.
The injured:
Engineer Chas. Milton, scalp wound;
cash in hip.
He was brougt to this city and lies
in the hospital His hurts while pain
full will not prove serious
ExpIodes Without Warning.
The local freight due out of here at
5 p, m. was an hour late. 1t arrived at
Pontusac after o'clock, and the
train crew was switching near the
depot, when, without warning, the
boiler blew up, hurting the engineer
$50 feet into the air together with
heavy pieces of iron and setting fire
to the little house which served as a
depot. The flames were extinguished
before much damage was done.
The engine, which was of the heavy
mogul type, was blown to pieces, the
tender being turned bottom up. Under
this the two men were buried. All that
could be seen of the bodies was the
foot of Fireman Harvey, which pro,
truded from under the mass of debris.
Weak Flues Cause Accident,
1t is thought that the accident was
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1904-11-29


caused by weak f1ues, but no accurate
account Of the accident could be OBJ
tanned.
A wrecking train and crew was inn
mediately sent from here to the scene.
but it was several hours before the
heavy machinery could be lifted and
the bodies taken out of the wreckage.
That the engineer escaped with his life
seems remarkable as he was blown
from his engine for a distance OF
nearly block along the right of way,
and was picked up in an unconscious
condition.
The damage will be considerable,
Besides the locomotive, which was to.
tally destroyed, the track and roadbed
was torn up, and several freight cars
wrecked Traffic was blocked for Z
considerable time.

some foreign countries, have repre-
sentatives in attendance upon regu-
lar work. The total enrolment of
students for the year 10000 was
over fourteen hundred, exclusive of
six hundred who took the short-term
courses in stock and grain judging
classes in January, 1904.
STANDS the Test
The best test of any institution Is
the work done by it's graduates. In
this respect the Iowa State College of
agriculture and mechanic arts eXcels.
AS it is well known, particularly in
Iowa, the agricultural courses leading
to the degree of bachelor of scientific
agriculture are attracting favorable
attention and comment all over the
world. The standards are the same
as for the general science course,
of science. Graduates from the agri-
cultural course of the Iowa State
college are in demand wherever
thoroughly trained men are needed.
The United States department of ag
riculture draws heavily upon it for
skilled and scientific men, Colleges
of agriculture and mechanic arts in
other states are glad to get gradr-
ates from Ames as instructors and
professors.
Helps Individual Interests.
An important feature Of the college
work is it's relation to the industrial
interests of the state. While it is re-
cognized that the principal business of
the several departments is undoubt-
eddy to give instruction and training
to their students, the fact is recog-
nized that the state contributes large
ly to the support of the college and
that in return, not only should the
college give tuition to the young peo-
pie of Iowa, but it should contribute
as much as possible to the success
full carrying on of the industrial inter-
ests of the state. The college is for
tunate in having national expert
ment station connected with its many
enterprises. The Investigations of the
station have all intimate relation to
college work of instruction. Extensive
original Investigations are carried on
under the management of trained spe.
cialists as to all the practical problems
bearing upon the lettering of the ag.
ricultural interests of the state. The
students assist with this work and
thus come in touch with the deeper
problems and methods of their profes,
sion. Bulletins are issued from time
to time giving the results of these in
vestigations and are sent direct to the
men who are most profted by them.
