Warren Nichols e Son. of Minerva.
sold on the Chicago market Tuesday
shreescar loads of horned western cat-
tie. thlrty-two head. averaging 1865
pounds in Chicago. after deducting the
usual shrinkage. The lot brought s4.95
which, considering the length of time
the animals have been fed. and the fact
that they were horned westerns, and
not the most desirable class, espec-
tally for export, was very good price.
The Messrs. Nichols bought the cat
tie a year ago last fall, and stalked
them thru the winter. They We're on
grass all summer. and only during the
past four months have been on corn.
The lot averaged about 900 pounds
when they We're landed at the Nichols
farm. AS the feed was comparatively
cheap, the profit TO the feeders is good.
The Messrs. Nichols still have $50 head
of the original lot of westerns for late
winter and early summer market.
Mr.. Stacey Nichols accompanied the
cattle to Chicago. and will remain for
a few days visit with his brother, Mr..
Charles Nichols. He will return home
via Greeley, where he will visit briefly
with his brother, Mr.. Paul Nichols.

way.
The success OF the Marshalltown In
terurban, as far as the proposition has
been carried. is stirring up smaller
towns that are anxious to have Mar
sriailtown on an electric line with them.
The Kellogg Tribune IS urging the peo-
pie of that town TO Interest themselves
In forming the "Marshalltown, Kellogg
& Pella Electric Railway Company"
building from this city to Pella via
Laurel, Kellogg and Killduff. The Tri-
bune says:
"An electric railroad from Marshall-
town to Pelia, via Laurel, Kellogg and
Kaliduff. would be paying PROPOSE
ton. 1t could be built almost In 4
straight line and would pass thru one
of the best sections of country In the
state. The topography of the country
is such that the cost of construction
would be comparatively cheap. Lei
our business men get together ard see
what can be done. We could surely in
te-est Marshalhown and Pella in such
an enterprise. Let us build the Mar

Congratulations.

Mr.. John III. Cuilom, editor of the
Garland (Tex) News, has written a
letter of congra tuiations to the manu-
faeturers of Chamberiains Cough
Remedy as follows; Sixteen years
ago. when our first child was baby,
he was subject to croupy spells and
we would b. very uneasy about him.
We began using Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in 1857. and finding it such a
reliable remedy for colds and Group. we
have never been without it in the house
since that time. We have five children
and have given 1t 10 all of them with
good results. one good feature of this
remedy is that it Is not disagreeable to
take and our babies really like 1t. An
other is that 1T is not dangerous, and
there Is no risk from giving an over
dose. congratulate you upon the
success of your remedy" For sale by
