PERRY FACTORY Town
TO Get First Milk Condensory
Built West of the Elgin
District
GROUND is ALREADY BROKEN
The Factory Will Be Modern in Every
Respect, and Will Eventually Change
the Adjacent Country to Dairy
Farms, Instead Of Those Devoted to
Raising Grain and Stock.
Special to Times-Republican.

| Perry. Dec. 21.-Perry gets the first
| milk condensory factory to be built
| west of the Eigin district, and it is to
be the nucleus for similar factories in
Iowa and the west. The Van Camp
Packing Company, of indianapolis.
Ind, broke ground this morning for a
milk condensory factory which. when
completed, will cost Sl50,000 and en-
ploy upwards OF 100 men and women.
The factory will be built in the most
improved manner, and equipped with
modern machinery in every respect.
The main building will be 1875 by 100
feet, two full stories and basement
underneath the entire building, with
an engine and boiler room built onto
the south to accommodate the full
equipment Of boilers and engines,
pumps. etc.
The factory when completed. will
take care of from 10000 pounds to So
900 pounds of milk daily, and without
question will eventually change the
adjacent country to dairy farms in
stead of the raising of grain and
stock.
While this will be of especial bene-
fit to Perry and Dallas county, it will
add greatly to the state, as, if it is
shown that more money can be made
in the dairy business than in the
present manner of farming, more con-
densories will be built at other points
in the state, and in a few years Iowa
should rank well along with the other
dairy states of the present.
Mr.. Allen Harvey. an up-to-date
Perry man. now president of the Com
mercial club which secured the factory
for Perry, will leave in few days for
the east, to learn the work, and will
return to Perry when the factory is
completed, as local manager. This,
with the spade factory, which is less
than two years old, and is running to
it's full capacity. the washing machine
factory which has been In operation
about one year and is far behind on
orders, leads the citizens and the peo-
pie of this section to realize that Perry
is fast becoming a factory town. and
likewise the state a manufacturing
state.
In addition to these improvements,
the WINNER & Williams block, a large
three-story building, is nearing COM
pletion. The Dignan block is all done
but the interior finishings, and with
the addition of another story to eithe
Globe Manufacturing Company plant.
it is safe to say that no idle men will
be found in this city for some time to
come

Also Suffered Severe Burns.
Columbus Junction, Dec. 21-Mr.
and Mrs. James Allicks and little son,
of Concord township, were terribly
burned Wednesday night about 8
o'clock. The little boy, about three or
four years of age, climbed up on the
kitchen range and upset a can contain
ing kerosene oil on the stove, in which
there was little fire. This caused the
oil to flame up and set fire to the
child's clothing, which had also been
saturated with the oil, and he was at
once wrapped in the flames.
He screamed, and the parents rushed
to him to put out t he fire, and in doing
so were themselves very seriously
burned about the hands and arms. The
child was burned about the face and
neck and stomach, besides his hands
and arms one hand being severely
burned The burns are very serious,
but it is not known whether they will
result fatally.

A Use For His Hat,

A funny incident Of a drawing room
meeting was recently noticed. A grave
looking gentleman, with an unusually
tall hat, entered and, seeing no rack in
the hall, placed his hat on the floor just
behind the door. Pretty soon another
grave man entered, with large, drip
ping umbrella, and, peering anxiously
for the usual receptacle, saw in the
gloom the hat resting on the floor. His
eyesight was probably poor, for he
mistook it for one of the new umbrella
holders, and in it he deposited his drip
ping umbrella. This was an example
for those who followed, and In a short
time the solemn looking hat was
stanchly holding a dozen umbrellas.
At the end Of the meeting the water in
the hat was an inch in depth.-London

They May es Detected by the Aots
Drilled Through Them, 81.
The means Of ascertaining the genu.
ineness Of pearls, which are frequently
initiated with marvellous skill, Is es-
pecially important to the layman, even
though the jeweler may quickly detect
them. limitations are usually lighter
than real pearls and generally are brit
tie, although some are made solid of
flsh scales and do not break SO easily,
while the holes, which in the real pearl
IRE drilled very small and have sharp
edge, are in the false larger and have q
blunt edge. As rule, the imitation
pearls art like hollow spheres Of glass
colored internally with coating imi-
tating the orient Of natural pearl.
The manufacture of these articles
embraces two series of operations-the
production Of the sphere and the intro
duction of coating. The spheres are
produced by the glassblower, who by
aid Of an enameler's lamp soldiers the
extremity of tube when the sub
stance is of the right consistency. In
this way are obtained very regular lit
tie spheres that serve for the compost
ton of the ordinary quality of false
pearls.
In the more beautiful limitations the
tube employed is slightly opalescent,
and the glassblower, besides, gives to
the little spheres while they are yet
malleable certain slight perceptible in
equalities Of surface by gently tapping
them with small iron bar. This gives
them a still greater resemblance to
natural pearls. which are very seldom
absolutely regular-EXchange.

WEIGHT OF PLANETS.

Il 10 tho Mass Of tho Body That Counts
With the Astronomer.
If a ham weighing thirty pounds
were taken up to the moon and weigh
ed there, the "pulp'-the attractive
force Of the moon upon the ham
would amount to only five pounds.
There would be another weight Of the
ham for the planet Mars and yet an
other on the sun. A ham weighing
thirty pounds at New York ought to
weigh some 800 pounds on the suns
surface; hence the astronomer does not
speak Of the weight Of planet, be-
cause that would depend upon the
place where it was weighed. But be
speaks of the mass Of the planet,
which means how much planet there is,
no matter where it might be weighed.
At the same time we might, without
Of heavenly body should be fixed by
the weight it would have in New
York. AS we could not imagine a
planet in New York, because it may
be larger than the earth itself, what
we are to imagine is this: Suppose the
planet could be divided into a million
million million equal parts and one Of
these parts brought to New York and
weighed. We could easily find it's
weight in pounds or tons. Then null
tiply this by million million million.
and we shall have a weight Of the plan

astronomers might take as the mass of
the planet-Current Literature.
