POULTRY
A Smooth SwindIe

Very few OF our readers but what
can remember the elarins "Branette''
advertisements OF about six months
ago, and thereby hangs u tale OF .
clever wholesale swindle related TO US
by the popular south side grocer, +.
W. Miles. A number OF St. Louis
men formed . company TO msnufac.
ture Brsnettes. They advertised them
literally, sent out statesmen and took
many orders. The sAlesmen we're
nicely dressed, smooth takers and
sold their goods on liberal terms--re.
turn what you don't want after sixty
days and get your money bsnk-snd
no wonder they did . tremendous
business. All orders taken were held
back until the entire field had been
worked, and then the goods we're sent
out In body and collected for. The
firm having accomplished its end,
went out Of business. The grocers
who purchased Brsnettes found that
they had balls OF compressed bran,
which they we're compelled to throw
away. Mr.. Miles said, 1--WE bought
Branettss and ws GOT brsnsstss.

MIR. WALL WILL WAIT.
City Has Made No Provision to Pay
Sewer Contractor.

Work on the construction of the
proposed outlet for the Potwin sewer
will be delayed until after the next
council meeting on Monday night It
was proposed to begin the work last
Tuesday, but owing to the fact that
the city has made no provision for
paying NJ Wall, the contractor, Mr..
Wall decided to wait a while.
It is thought now that the city will
arrange some way to borrow the $500
necessary to pay for the work. and
return the loan when the sewer as
sessment is made and collected
The scheme for raising the money
to pay for the work is somewhat COM
plicated. One district has been Great
ed to build a sewer in Lowman Hill,
connecting with the Potwin sewer.
Another district has been created,
covering both Lowman Hill and Pot
win to pay for the work of building
the proposed extension of the sewer
outlet, so that the sewage will cross
a large sandbar which now blocks the
mouth of the sewer. The council has
passed the ordinance creating the ben
eft district. and has let the contract
for the work on the outlet but so far
no appraisers have been appointed to
fix the valuation of the property, and
no assessment has been made. The
city officials have been postponing this
work so that it might be done at the
same time the Lowman Hill sewer as
sessment is made.
