The general opinion pre- vailing in
the vicinity of Maquoketa, Ia, near
which town :crude petroleum was
found in a pond, is that the residents
of the town have been victimized by
persons whose object was to deceive
probable investors. 1t is contended
that few barrels of the crude oil
were probably dumped in the pool co
give rise to the impression that oil
existed there A small quantity of
the substance would have been suffi-
cient to establish a big oil boom.
Biologists who visited the scene re-
port that no oil bearing strata has
been found IN the vicinity and declare
that they believe the find" is hoax,
pure and simple.

OF the necessity for preparation and
the early advantage of those who, so
to speak, "have shingled their roofs

paration has made history and given
to us our greatest men. The indivi-

H. G. Knappen, defeated candidate
for justice of the peace of Clear
Lake, was hung in effigy there Thurs
day night. The incident aroused
considerable feeling. While trivial in
itself, the strained political conditions
there due to the recent factional con-
tests has renewed trouble. Knappeu
was defeated by A. j. Marsh, an old
soldier, twenty-six votes. The in
cident is traced to feeling between
Young and Olson, resulting from the

Some three years ago number OF
prominent retail druggists - realizing
that big change was to be made in the
proprietary medicine business, that the
public demanded to know what the in
gradients were of the preparations they
were advertising, and that a general
reform was about to take place in pro-
prietary medicine manufacturing and ad-
vertising, formed cooperative COM
pany to meet the public s demand. It's
company was called The United Drug
Co., of which the undersigned has be-
come one of thetwo thousand rle.-l 5
Our object was, first, to manugac+',~e
a line of prescriptions such as we l.. /
tried out in our stores and found to Sc
the very best of results, and second, By
owning ouI own cooperative manufac-
turing company we would be able 20
know the exact formula Of every prepar-
alton we were selling, thus enabling US
to give to the public the very best re:-,-
edies we could find at actual manufac-
turing cost, plus a single retail profit.
This enabled The United Drug Com
pany to escape the heavy charges fer
advertising and other expenses such as
have to be paid by propriet 2-y remedies.
