NEW COURT HOUSE.
The Question Submitted at Special
Election Next June 18th.

The board of supervisors has been
in session two days this week. Its
most important business was the con-
sideration of the petition of over 700
voters, asking that the question of
giving the board authority to sell
$65, 900 of bonds for money with which
to build a new court house. The
board agreed to submit the question
to the voters at special election to
be held June 18th next.
1t is submitted thus early so that if
it is defeated they may go on under
the bids already in, and put in the
vaults, and if it carries they expect to
commenced as soon as possible so as
to get the foundation in this fall and
complete the building next summer.
That the question should be submit
ted at special election is surely the
right thing. If it is submitted at a
general election it is either lost sight
of, or else complicated with the for
tunes of local candidates or mixed
with other issues. AT special cleo
ton it can be passed on on it's merits.
We shall take occasion to speak of
this subject more fully as the time for
election approaches.

Audubon County Population De-
creased.

The assessors have all made their
returns and it appears that the popu-
lation of the county has decreased 692
during the past five years and that
now it only has 1894 population, A
table is given herewith showing the
population by township and incorpo-
rated towns, and the loss or gain in
each. Douglas shows the only gain
among the townships while Extra out
side the town shows the biggest loss.
Audubon town surprised nearly every
body by showing loss of l04. There
have been a good many new houses
built in Audubon in the past five years,
but we suppose some old ones have
been removed. Then there are more
vacant houses now than there were
then. We have always thought that
Bradleyville properly belongs to Au-
dubon when speaking of the popula-
ton of the town. Counting it we have
about 1000. Extra only lost II. Gray
gained 10 and Brayton had a boom,
gaining 56.
Audubon county is not alone in the
falling off among the agricultural
counties of the state. 1t is the general
among them. The towns
and cities having manufacturing and
varied industries are about the only
portions of Iowa that have shown a
gain. The past five years has wit
messed hundreds of people move to
oklahoma, the Dakotas, Canada and
other parts of the west. There is a
gradual development Of conditions,
an evolution, in the industry of agri-
culture that tends toward bigger farms.
Our farmers have been making money
and many of them have been adding
to the size of their farms. New kinds
of machinery have made it possible
for one man to farm more land than
formerly. The bigger harrows, the
hay leaders, the manure spreaders
and many other implements are help
ing do this. Then there is more pas
turing and raising of stock and less
actual farming here. So it comes
that our population is reduced five
per cent in five years.

For the week ending April "A, 1905.
Des Moines, Iowa,
The first half of the week was dry,
cool and favorable for field work. On
Thursday and Friday copious showers
visited all parts of the state, except a
narrow belt in the northern tier OF
counties, from Worth to Lyon. The
rainfall was timely and very beneficial
being followed by warmer weather.
Frost and ice were reported in all dis
tricts on several mornings, though
generally causing but little damage to
crops and fruits. Good progress has
been made in preparation of ground
for corn, and large area is ready
for the planters. The ground is still
cold, the soil thermometer at the State
College farm registering 80 degrees at
depth of six inches.
The refreshing effects OF showers
and warmer weather are noted in pas
lures, meadows and grain fields.
Though growth of vegetation has
been retarded by cold nights, the sea-
son is still relatively early. The pas
lures are forward, and foliage Is well
advanced for the time of the year.
The general crop outlook is promising.
