NEW DEPOT ASSURED
With the Opening of Spring the Mil

Construction of Its New
Passenger Depot.

Tue editor of The Republican was
shown a letter today from one of the
Officials of the Milwaukee Company,
whici, stated that with the opening of
spriug wolk would be commenced on
tle new depot. Some improvements
have been contemplated at the depot
for the past month and the letter
WAS la answer to this, adding that
no improvements would be made
around the depot on account of the
large baiiding operations which the
Milwaukee, had under contemplation
and that it would he a waste of
money to do anything now.
'Vhe idea is that the old freight de-
pot will be torn down, and the pres
ent passenger depot will be used for
freight. The new depot will lie To-
Gated, in all probability, a little dis
tance north Of the present location 50
that it can be reached without hay-
ing to cross the switches. That it
will be Il fine building there is no
question, either stone or brick en-
tering as the material for construc-

1t was the intention of the COIL
pany to build the depot last spring,
but it was postponed until after the

BACON HOGS ARE WANTED.
Greatly Increased Demand Caused b,
Marked Change in Public Taste.

The following from the South st.
Paul Reporter of October 8, 1904, is of
interest to hog raisers at this season
of the year when farmers are arrang-
ing for the coming season.
In no single thing has there been a
greater change in the public taste
than in that for bacon and other hog
products, and with the change in taste
has come an increased demand for ba-
con and hams prepared by improved
processes. The change in demand
has caused the price of heavy, fat
hogs to drop, while there is a sharp de.
mand for light hogs, of the bacon
breeds, from six to eight months old
and weighing $50 to It's pounds. For
tunately, these pigs are just the ones
that make the farmer the most profit,

various members of the order in the

building of the order which has met
with their approval and a strong camp
will be mustered in every congression-
al district as a nucleus to form other
camps. This central camp will appeal
strongly to the business and profess
SIGNAL men who have heretofore failed
to take any interest because of the
too frequent meetings of the camp
which required too much of their time
for mere routine ritualistic work.
A new constitution, whereby in the
largere cities less number of meetings

the purpose of these camps to cele-
brate especially Lincoln and Grant
days and assist veterans in the proper
observance of Memorial day and Flag
day. Mason City has started such
camp with thirty of Its best young
business and professional men, and
the department commander believes
that Cedar Rapids, Sioux City, Des
Moines and other cities will respond
to the call.
Meanwhile every Grand Army post
has been written to in the state to lend
| its aid in forming camps in their
towns and the commander-in-chief be-
lieves that in Iowa, Kansas and other
western states there will be the revival
of the interest which mas marked the
eastern and New England states the
past two years. The local camp ten
