Eggs are still coming forward free

1870.
The local wholesale fruit and vege'
table market has continued fairly ac-
tive. At times the demand showed the
vim usual at this time of the year, Dut
the supply in most cases has been ample
and the buying was not continued long
enough to cause material improve
ment in prices. AS strawberries are
cheap. the small dealers have taken
them freely. The condition of the
strawberries arriving is such that they
have to be handled quickly to prevent
spelling.
Potatoes hold steady at about the
prices of a week ago, but old stock is
coming in rather freely and as the de-
mand is not lively, full quotations are
realized only in few cases. New po-
tatoes are not very plenty, but those
of good quality sell well. The cool
weather and the absence of rain are
responsible for light receipts of native
asparagus, and with a steady demand
the feeling is firmer. Choice southern
stock moves readily, but good many
lots reach here in poor condition and
have to go at what they will bring.
| Cabbages have to be very choice and
| fresh to fetch the outside price. String
beans are plenty and cheap. Beet
greens are higher, but spinach, kale and
dandelions are lower. Cucumbers, let
tuce and rhubarb are cheaper. Turnlps
| and onions are steady.
Apples are cleaning up well ana are
firmer. Cranberries are almost out OF
the market. Cherries are not very
plenty yet and are high; carload SHIP

Many women long for child to bless
their homes, but because of some de-
bility or displacement of the female
organs they are barren.
Preparation for healthy maternity is
accomplished by Lydia E. Pinkham's

than by any other medicine, because it
gives tone and strength to the entire
female organism, curing all displace-
ments, liberation and Inflammation.

condition transmits to her children the

Directors Of Agricultural Department
After Warm Contest Farmer'
Want Revival Of Reciprocal Trade
PRINCIPLES - Resolutions Adopted.

Des Moirles, Dec. 14.-The Farmers
State Institute and department of agri-
culture. at its meeting here unanimous
ly adopted i resolution to the following
effect:
..That we regard the duty Of congress-
to be imperative in the revival In some
form of the principles of reciprocal !
trade relations as enumerated IN Sec
ton Of the Dingley act. That this i'
demanded as an act Of good faith anes
ia necessity for the agricultural in.
terests, as we'll as for a large portion
Of the manufacturing interests OF the
country. We believe commerce to be
an exchange OF commodities. We be :.
lieve that the doctrine enunciated b.t
Mr.. Mckinley in his Buffalo speech $
absolutely essential to the welfare OF
the country and we demand that steps
be taken at once to carry out the pol
lev pledged by the republican party In
the Dingley act to the country at large.
We believe that the principles of sec :
ton 4 Of the Dingley act, II enacted
into law, would constitute maxi
mum and minimum tariff, which should
be put into force by the executive
without further legislation, and we re-
quest our representation in congress TO
act promptly before irretrievable dam
age is done in this direction; to ire
end that we may retain the markets
that we now have for all our agr1cul-
tural and meat products, and extend
the same throughout continental Eu
rope"
Chairman H. P. Hancock, Of the
committee, an attorney at West Unio 4,
offered this and the other resolutions,
the motion for adoption Of which. met
with no debate or dissenting voice.
His associates on the committee were
r. w. Cassidy, of Monona county, and
they agreed with the chairman In tte
resolution as to reciprocity as we'll ;ts
those on other subjects, relating 20
wide-tired wagons, for which legislt-
tion is asked, and the increase In coni-
missions en- live stock sales in Chicatso
and at other markets, against which
protest is made.
During the last season Of the COLI
yention, w. A. Harris, OF Chicago, all
dressed the farmers on the question of
increasing foreign trade in agricultur-
al products. His address met with the
approval Of the convention. He said
that he believed the live stock industry
would be ruined in another year unless
something, was done with the tariH.
which would permit the entrance os
American products Of this character
into foreign markets, like those Of Ger
many, without prejudice.

portant Decision.
pecial to Times-Republican.

Special to Times-Republican
Des Moines, Dec. 14.-The Iowa SUI
preme court today decided that the sale
of liquors in Iowa contrary to law is
a very dangerous proceeding in that
the purchaser may recover the money
paid without returning the liquor. The
decision was rendered in the case OF
Hamilton VS.. Schlitz Brewing Company
of Milwaukee, case from the Linn
county district court in which the low
er court is reversed.
brewing company in Cedar Rapids un-
der written contract designed to show
that the sales Of liquor from brewer to
agent were made in Milwaukee. How
ever the company would ship to Ham
ilton and their collections would be
made thru bank with the bill Of lad
ing attached to draft. Hamilton
owed the brewing company and finally
took advantage of the Iowa statute
sill in force from the old prohibitory
law, which permits person
to recover money paid for intoxicating
liquors, if the sale was made in viola
ton Of law.
The case in the lower court hinged
on the question as to whether the sale
was made in Cedar Rapids or in Mil
waukee. The jury decided that the
evidence established the fact of the
sale having been made in Milwaukee.
but the supreme court reverses the
lower court in favor of Hamilton's con-
tention that the sale was made in this
state, therefore in violation Of law and
the money paid open to recovery un-
der the Iowa statute. About $4,000
was involved.
