is BOTTOM OUT OF TRUST?
Waterloo Gets Asphalt Paving az Cents
Under Bulk of Local Contracts.

| Has the bottom fallen out of the
asphalt trust? Such is the claim of
| men who are interested in the asphalt
business, and the recent contracts that
were awarded at Waterloo would in
dictate that either Marshalltown paid
an excessively high price for her paw
ing, or else Waterloo is going to have
a very cheap article of permanent
street improvement.
The Barber Asphalt Company has
been awarded the work at Waterloo,
the total amount of the contracts be-
ing $119741. divided between the two
sides of the river. The sum of $79,24I
represents the amount of the paving
for the east side streets, and $4O,494
for the west side. The asphalt to be
used is known as the "Genasco" and is
to be put in at s1.55. The combined
curb and gutter contract went at A
cents. These figures are much lower
than those for the bulk of the Mar
shalltown contracts of 1902 and 1908,
which were s197 for paving and 65
cents for combined curb and gutter.
The South Third avenue contract was
cheaper the paving going at $3.50, be-
cause some of the old macadam foun-
udlloH NdS uSeu, anu lile Cti Dlub ol
AZ cents, without the gutter.
The result of the work done in Wa
terloo viii be watched with interest
locally because of the fact that the
price for the work is so much under
that paid here. Waterloo papers claim
that "Genasco" asphalt is identically
the same as Bermuda and Trinidad
Pitch lake. and that the word is clev-
err intention Of the Barber company,
taken from the three words Of the cor
porate name of the company, General
Asphalt Company A man who is ia
miliar with the workings of the asphalt
company says that the asphalt trust
is no more, by reason of the troubles
the asphalt people have had in Venez-
uela, and for that reason asphalt is
cheaper now than it was when the
trust was holding up the prices.

COMMITTEE MEMBERS HERE
Capt. L. p. Raymond, of Hampton, and

company the Commander-Commit-
tee Will Recommend New Building
For Use of ouartermaster.

Hon. r. T. st. John, of Riceville, de-
partment commander of the Iowa g
A. r., accompanied by Capt. L. =
Raymond, of Hampton, and l.. II. Sew
erin, of Cedar Falls, members of thu
G. A. r. committee appointed at the
last ,encampment at Mason City to in
spect the Soldiers Home, spent Thurs
day in the city looking over the insti-
tuition. Last winter when the commit

conduct the inspection, Commander st.
John was i'll, Captain Raymond was in
Enid, o. T., on business, and Mr.. Sew
erin was unable to come. This left only
Hon. Phil Schaller, of Sac City, the
only member of the committee who was
able to be present. AS soon as the
other members could make the neces-
sary arrangements a time was fixed,
and the visit was made Thursday.
Commander st. John had not visited
the Home since he was a member OF

ten years ago. He expressed himself
as not only being greatly pleased, but
surprised at the magnitude of the in
stitution, as compared with the time
when he last saw it. Mr.. ST. Johns
term as commander expires with the
holding of the annual encampment at
Oskaloosa on May 16, II and IS, and
he was anxious to visit the Home while
commander of the G. A. r. At the
Oskaloosa encampment report of the
committee will be made. The repor.
will include recommendations which
will be embodied in the report to the
legislature.
New Quartermaster's Building.
The principal recommendation of the
committee will be that a new quarter
masters building be erected, and the
necessity for the Improvement will be
urged. The quartermaster is badly
handicapped, in the minds of the conn
mittee, for want of sufficient room in
which to keep the institutions sup
plies. No more room is furnished this
department. now than eighteen years
ago, when the Home was first built.
The demands have been met in other
as the Home increased ill
size, but the committee believes that
the quartermaster's department has
been neglected.

in funerals at the, home, and the serv-
ice is very pretty and impressive.
