HAUL CORN, DESPITE ROADS.
Many Story County Elevators Find
Difficulty in Handling Grain.

=
Spe:.al to Times-Republican.
Nevada, Dec. 14.-Despite the almost
impossible condition of the roads, there
is large amount of corn being moved
at present Hundreds of thousands OF
bushels of corn have been contracted
by our elevators with the farmers thru
out this part of the county, for Deem
Der delivery. The first ten days OF the
month, the condition of the roads made
the delivery Of corn impossible, and
now with the month but half gone.
there is but a small amount of corn
in the elevators. To make matters
doubly worse, the elevators are exper-
fencing difficulty in securing suf-
ficient number of cars to handle the
corn that is now being unloaded on
them SO rapidly. This is the season
that the farmer who delivers his corn
on hoof, in the way of bunch OF fat
steers, appreciates his method.

The Mesaba Ore returns to it's vom-
it. We will not refute the assertion
that the Iron Range is paradise, and
that all its heavenly attributes are
directly due to the steel trust If the
Ore believes that it is in a state Of
mind deserving pity rather than con-
tempt. The organization and pusi-
ness efficiency of the steel trust and
kindred organizations are praise
worthy, and their part in developing
the iron country creditable. A part
of the organization appears to be hav-
ing parasites, newspaper and others,
which for the sake Of an occasional
crumb, are always the apologists and
defenders Of the acts of the big cor.
poratlons. The sign of the red devil
1s exceedingly appropriate for such
an organ. The steel trust was built
originally upon the iniquiry of q rob-
Der tariff. It is nc better now than it
ever was. It is of the class of con.
Germs that the leading men of the
United States in both parties say
must be rigidly controlled. The O-e
lightly passes over the charges of
coercion at the polls, knowing that
thev are true, and all the prosperity
in the Iron Range cannot excuse that
CRIME. so far AS the rural editor
talk goes, we had rather have that
designation than 'crook the hinges of
the knee, that thrift may follow
fawning;'' rather be a ruralist than q
parasite. any day.

Earthquakes are more frequent in volcanic areas, but are not confined to them. A great zone which Is particu- Iarly subject to earthquakes encircles the earth. This belt includes the Med lterranean lands. the Azores, the West Indies, Central America, the Hawaiian Islands, Japan, China, India, Persia and Asia Minor. It Is believed that the larger number of earthquakes orig hate beneath the ocean. In places where the bottom Of the sea shows great variation in depth earthquakes are numerous. They have, in fact, been found to be SO destructive to tele- graph cables in these localities that the cable authorities have named them danger zones."

Value of ButterHies.

When our juniors see the common white cabbage and sulphur wing but
 terfies or even the superb Monarh and gorgeous Ajax swallowtails fitting through the fields or at times city streets they perhaps never give thought to the fact that butterflies may be of commercial value. But such Is the case. Some of our domestic butter flies on account of rarity more than beauty command prices from one to several dollars, which collectors gladly pay to insure the completeness of their cabinets. Big prices are paid for some of the magnificent butterflies of the morpho and papiliO genera, which are rainbow huel in cOlors and span five feet in wings. These flourish in trop
 icaI countries. and it is often necessary for museums to send out special eX- petitions for them. They range from SlO to $1CO in vaIuC.-BaltimOre Herald
