who lost his sight two or three
years ago, from the effects OF
getting a cinder in his eye, will
bring suitagainst the Great Nor

Mr.. Hardy has a petition which
many signed, in his favor.
A well digger informs the indie
pendent that the frost on the
average is not more than a foot
deep, and OF course it will take
but a short time in the spring
for it to leave the ground. For
that reason he does not look for
food in the spring, and for the
same reason expects that the
ground will be in the best kind OF
condition for a bumper crop.

The Fosston Automatic Tanning
Mill, famous for their ANNOYANCE
saving features, are on display
at N. p. Stones warehouse. The
Fosston mill has accomplished
something that has been at
tempted for 100 years in vain
getting a big feed and a small
feed from the same size opening.
This has heretofore been termed
an impossibility. The lower
screen which always fills on other
machines, is kept automatically
clean on the Fosston mill. There
are nine zinc screens, some OF
which are double, making over
30 square feet OF zine. These
three features make the Foss-
ton mill easily the superior OF
any on the market, is the claim
made for it by the manufac-
turers. The exhibit is in charge
of T. O. Helgerson, the inventor
OF the famous Fosston flaming
Mill. The above mill is on sale

Iexpress no opinion as to the
real merits of the case. Your
conduct is the subject of discuss
sion.
Now why did you not wait for
and insist on Mr.. Drunert making
his report before dismissing the
case? What was the matter with
your fathers taxes amounting in
all to $S8.2S if the county did not
have cause of action, against the

Did the County Clerk make false
statement about the Collector be-

Now it looks strange that Judge
Barnett, being the defendants at
torney in that case for more than
a year, and that MIR. Lafferty who
was bright young attorney did
not discern that there was NO
CAUSE OF ACTION against the de-
fendant and that you should make
the important discovery so soon
after getting in the case, for the

Mr.. E. P. RoRENBERGER,
DEAR SIR:-Some time ago I
published in one of the County
papers your official record (or at
least part of it) and publically
asked you to explain why you
failed to follow the law in those
cases cited. So lar you have per-
sonally failed to utter one single
word publicly as to the cause of
the non -fulfilment of duty. Your
friends urge the flimsy excuse that
in many instances you followed
precedent. Do you and your
friends, followers of Governor
Folk, admit that the following of
precedent is following the law. Had
the Hon. Governor Folk followed
"precedent" would he have un-
covered a state of affairs in st.
Louis &c, foul that they smelled to
high Heaven? Iagain ask you to
explain why you failed in your
duty in the following cases in
which two exjudges (Democrats)
insist that the county did have q
cause of action against the defend
ant.

On the 9Th day of October 1908,
Mr.. Lafferty who was then Prose-

commenced suit against the col

and also the penalties imposed by
the revenue laws of the State.
After some delays and contin-
uances, on July 6. 1904, the fol-
lowing entry was made in said
cause; see Record Book No. Z,
page 26.
"Ordered by the Court that A.
H. Drunert and w. L. Mabry be

as to the law and facts herein and
leave is hereby granted defendant

Again on December 1st, 1904,
book 7, p 279 the next following
entry appears:
"Ordered by the Court that w.

that A. H. Drunert continue as

THE SUNDAY DINNER.
NOTES Or THE LOCAL MARKET
OF INTEREST TO THE oTTUM.
WA HOUSEWIFE
Are Abundant on tho
Market, OF Good Quality and Good
Price ~ Fruit Is Scarce and Expen-
sIve - The General Markets.

Ottumwa has long been used to hav-
ing good assortment of vegetables at
all seasons of the year, and they are
now almost as plentiful in the local
markets as though they came from the
farms Of nearby garden trucksters. OF
course that may be putting it rather
strong, but really there is a nice Sc
lection there for the Sunday dinner.
And the prices quoted by the deal
ers are surprisingly low, when all the
circumstances are considered The
best head lettuce sells at Is cents per
head and good offerings Of leaf let
tuce at from 5 to TN cents. Green on
ions sell at TN cents per bunch or at
Is cents a dozen punches. Excellent
cabbages may be had for cents per
pound. Tempting radishes are selling
at IN cents a bunch.
Staple vegetables continue abund-
ant at rather stifflsh prices. Colorado
potatoes bring one buck per bushel or
25 cents per single peck. Sweet po-
tatoes go at 80 cents per peck. Pump
kins are all gone and the Hubbard
squash is fast following it to the land
Of nowhere. What few there are that
still remain, are being sold at Is to 20
cents per squash. Egg plant? Well
no, there isn't any in this market now.
It's too bad, isn't it? Turnips bring
rs cents per peck, beets and old on
ions both 80 cents per peck and par
ships Is cents per peck.
Spinach sells Is quite cheap at 15
cents per pound. This Is at the rate
of about 21a cents per mouthful Cauli-
flower, the king of the market now is
selling for 20 to 80 cents head.
Apples are practically the only sta
pie fruit, besides the perennial or
anges and bananas, sell at from
IS to so cents per peck. Eggs sell
for rs cents per dozen for the best.
This carries with it an affidavit Of
freshness. Butter can be bought at
any price you want to pay for 1t. that
is, If you want to pay more than
% 1-3 cents per pound; 221a cents is
the bottom limit.

troduced a resolution shortly after the
cenvening of congress appropriating
$4,000 to be used by the department
of agriculture in demonstration expert
ments for the purpose of controlling
important diseases of orchard fruits,
such as scab, bitter root, pear blight,
ETC." While Mr.. Pollard does not ex-
pect to get his resolution through as
an independent measure he has been
assured by Chairman Wadsworth of
the committee on agriculture that this
amount will be set aside in the regu-
lar appropriation bill to that end that
the fruit growers of the west and par
ticularly of Nebraska and Iowa. may
have the benefit thereof.
1t is impossible to investigate the
value Of apple orchards to Iowa If the
pests that have rendered fruit raising
precarious could be controlled: 1t
would mean many millions of dollars
of ''easy" money to farmers and give
the people much needed and health
full food In 1889 there were nearly
Z 100000 apple trees in Iowa, but 1t Is
doubtful if today there are so many
as that. Frank ]. Stillman.
