The farm mortgage, though sometimes
a necessary evil and often decided adj
vantage, is not often spoken of in justi-
fication, but writer in this weeks
Iowa Homestead, Mr.. L. Lowe, declares
that tiling wet sloughs is sufficient ex-
cuse to mortgage the farm if the money
can not be raised in any other way.
Mr.. Lowe, who has had extensive ex-
perience in thing lands, calls attention
to the fact that sloughs are the only
really cheap lands we have left in the
thickly settled regions of the corn belt.
He undertakes to tell how tile should
be selected, how it should be laid so as
to secure the best results, proper loca-
ton for draining of wet sloughs, and a
multitude of other details important to
the practical agriculturist. The subject
of tile drainage is always timely when
the ground is not frozen and the farmer
who gets week ahead with his work
can put in the time in laying drains.
The Homestead is performing a valuable
service by publishing such articles. 1t
already has large circulation in De-
catur county, but we are always glad to
take additional subscriptions at this
Office.

During the past few days we have
had occasion to file formal complaints
with the postofice department at
Washington against two postmasters
who have failed to notify us of change
in the address of our paper or of dis
continuance. At one Office represen-
tative of this paper found that the
papers were being sent to dead
addresses and were being handed out
to other people. This of course, rep
resented loss to US of about cents
on each issue, amounting to good
many dollars in the course of the year,
just because the postmaster was negli-
gent of his duty. The law requires him
to notify the publisher when paper is
not taken out and give the reason.
Most postmasters in this part of the
state are careful to do this, but a few
fail, and we propose to find out whether
we can be reimbursed for our loss or
not.-Shenandoah Sentinel.
There are a few postmasters in
Decatur county who will be reported
for similar cause unless they pay more
attention to postal laws.

According to the report of the news
papers of that section curious condi-

sand acres of good farm land will not

cry and teams and hire men from Win

reason for his act, which was entirely,
unexpected, as he was Of jovial dis

last Thursday from Stockton, Kas.,
where they had gone to complete the
transfer Of big real estate deal, which
was negotiated by Mr.. Keller, who by
the way is one of the greatest hustlers
in the real estate line we ever saw, and
if he can't make trade for you we
know of no one who can. In this deal
Mr.. Axes traded his brick hotel prop
erty on the north side of the square
valued at $4,000 to E. o. Kinsey, of
Perry, Iowa, for $50 acres of fine farm
land near Woodston, Kas., which he
took at $40 per acre, and thinks it is
the best bargain he ever made, as there
is 80 acres Of fine wheat on the place
and much of the farm is being planted
to corn by good tenant. Mr.. Kinsey
Immediately traded the hotel property
in Leon to E. G. Buchanan, of Humeston,
who owns the Hotel Leon property,
hotel at Knowlton, Iowa, being received
by Mr.. Kinsey in the deal. All of the
trades were negotiated by Mr.. Keller.

broke loose last Friday afternoon and
INDUCED in lively runaway. He. was
hitched to a light buggy and broke
away from the hitchrack and started up
Main street, turning east on CONNER

to stop him. He finally tore the buggy
to pieces and stopped in a fence corner
out by Dennis Daughton's east of town.

half grown white rat in Hiatt's meat
market, which attracted considerable
attention, as white rat is not often
seen aside from the pink eyed
tame ones. 1t was kept in a box for
several hours but during the night
gnawed out and is again at large.

A new time card went into effect on
the Burlington road last Sunday which
is causing all kinds of kicking from the
residents along the Grant City branch
and the travelling men, as the daily
freight on that branch is now run only
every other day, going south on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday and north on
Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. There
is no change in the time of any of the
trains at Leon, There seems to be
something radically wrong with the
management of the Burlington road.
A few years ago they were giving the!
people excellent passenger facilities,
but now it seems that they don't care
a snap for passenger traffic and it makes
no difference with them whether they
make connections with their trains or
not.
