RACE TRACK ADDITION,

This tract lies just one mile from the Town. / intend to
run a Street Railroad to the Race Track, which will
make lots near by treble in value within two years. L
give a written guarantee with every lot sold that this
Railroad will be Ia operation within two years from date.
Backed by "a general bond sufficient to build and equip
the same, intend placing the first 100 lots on the mar
Ket at 5000 and increase $500 per lot every 100 lots
sold thereafter. There are about 2,400 lots in Race
Track Addition. An increase Of $500 per lot on every
100 lots sold, the last 100 lots must bring $4,000 each.
The payments can be as follows: $500 cash down and
$500 per month on each lot, with no interest on deferred
payments. Those that get in on the FIRST installnents
will beyond a doubt make good investments. Two
years ago L started Standard Land Company Addition
to Guffport at $4,000 per lot, many OF which cannot be
bought today for $780, 90 per lot. These lots are further
out, but believe | can make equally as valuable by Street
Railroad connection.
Get in while you can cheap. Buy a lot for your chill.

BONDsMEN WONT PAY
Bitter Lawsuits Likely to Grow Out Of
tho DefaIcation of Cashier couIton
Of the WapelIo Savings Bank.

Special to Times
Columbus Junction, Dec. 6. - What
may result in one of the most bitter
law suits ever brought, and involving
the leading men Of Lousia county,
is likely to be wagh over the
settlement of the paymeaf of the $685.
900 embezzled by w. /. Cotton. the
Wapello bank cashier thru a per-
iod Of some twelve years. 1t Is said
the bondsmen will resist making good
the amount, but the stockholders of
the Wapello institution, on the other
hand, declare they should be held la
BILE. But these bondsmen. while amply
able to meet ten times the $4,000, will
not pay until the court Of last resort
"shows them that they must. If they
can evade payment, then the stock
holders of the bank are amply good
and willing to meet the demand, but
not while there is a chance to hold the
bondsmen. So the trouble about the
defalcation will probably be augmented
by a suit at law the most bitter ever
known in the county. 1t will be fight
between the Columbus Junction men
who signed the bond more than twelve
years ago, four of whom are dead, and
part of whose estates are already set
tied, and the Wapello stockholders who
ask What is a bond for, If not to
meet just such losses as this?"
In any event it is going to prove a
hardship on some people, and as this
hardship becomes more pronounced,
the sympathy which now exists for the
author Of all this trouble will almost
vanish.
The the bank itself is in excellent
condition, its loss being fully made up
and it's business running as usual.
The majority of the people up this
way think the sentence a very mild
one. This may result partly from the
fact that all the living bondsmen are
residents Of this immediate vicinity.
and, if their bonds still prove binding.
will have to replace that s25,O00s

Iowa City, Dec. CDR. p. w. Rock
wood. of the department of chemistry
Of the State University Of Iowa, has
delivered an interesting address to the
Baconian society Of the university on
food preservatives and has taken as an
illustration the work Of the department
Of agriculture in Washington last win
ter and Its experiments on the clerks
in the department. The man who has
had charge of this experiment, which
has been confined almost exclusively
to study Of the injurious effects Of
borax acid is H. w. Wiley, a friend Of
DIR. Rockwood's at Yale last year
where he was doing some special re-
search work. The intimacy of the two
men has enabled DR.. lockwood to OBJ
tain accurate knowledge of the actual
results Of the various tests.
In opening his address DR.. lockwood
stated that the use Of preservative
was as old as history. the most COM
mon ones being salt, sugar. vinegar
and wood smoke, but to the natural
preservatives has been added of late
years, formaldehyde for the preserva-
ton of milk and borax acid in meats or
butter. His mention Of the former
preservative was Of especial interest
to the members OF the club from the
scare that Iowa City had last winter
when DR.. Andrews, then professor of
chemistry Of the university, declared
that the Milkmen who were supplying
the city were using for1naline to pre-
serve the milk that they sold to their
patrons.
At that time DR.. Andrews carefully
described the effects Of the use Of for
maline In milk on adults and on chill
dren and showed how it could be
roughly determined whether the pre-
sentative was being used or not. Mo-
tice was given to the milkmen that
their milk was to be examined and US
ers of the presrvative punished, but
nothing ever came Of the charges. DR..
lockwood also explained that salicylic
acid. sulphurous acid and the supplies
could also be used.
Turning again to borax DR.. Rock
wood stated that the average man
eating a small amount Of meat and
butter in day would consume about
nalI a gram UOIlC sS1ClSlS OuS 40 Wy
few people eat meat continually this
small amount OF the preservative would
not prove harmful. The experiments
at Washington, which were carried on
with twelve clerks as the subjects dem
onstrated that half a gram OF boric
acid, taken daily, would not make any
particular difference with the health
Of the subjects. When this ration Of
boric acid had been continued for some
time, however, there was noted
gradual loss of appetite followed by a
feeling of uneasiness and fullness at
the stomach, and in other subjects
nausea, and dull headaches, while
sharp pains were felt at irregular in
tervals. In every case there was
marked loss of weight. A dose Of three
or four drains naade the subjects un-
able to perform their duties, making
them violently sick DR.. lockwood
concluded tina. the ease with which
borax could be used, being odorless and
tasteless, should make it imperative
that all foods containing it should be
so labeled.

PUTTING SCREENINGS UP.
Minneapolis Mill Men Scent an oppo


Minneapolis Mill Men Scent an oppor-
tunity to Squeeze Sheep Feeders.
Chicago, Dec. 6.-Recent apprecfa-
ton Of wool and mutton values has
prompted f1nishers to contract lot OF
stuff to go into feed lots around st.
Paul. The Minneapolis screening COM
bine has scented this as an opportuni-
ty to advance the price of feed which
has been on down grade.
"The Minneapolis commission crowd
seems determined to force the sheep
feeder out of the business" said a
heavy operator. Every time 1T gets
chance to squeeze, pressure is applied
good and hard. If an advance in
screenings is insisted upon we will not
finish stuff contracted for feed lots
this winter. The price of wool justif1es
wintering it and mutton values are not
likely to drop for some time to come"
