effect, Men who own land can afford
to give rights of way and bid with
bonuses for interurbans that will stop
it's cars at q station near q mans
land, will increase the value of all
farms within two miles in every d.
rection by $40 to 500 per acre. This
has been demonstrated. No farmer
need be afraid Of an interurban cutting
up his land; rather should he worry
for fear the interurban will never come
his way.

it probably was. but there are too
many young boys running street cars
in Marshalltown. The cars seem to
be place for boys play rather than
the work Of mature men. Especially Is
this true on Third street Boy con-
ductors are allowed to operate the
cars at terrific speed, evidently for
the fun of seeing them go. The other
day the motorman, conductor and one
mere lad We're speeding car south,
and the boy, not an employee of the
company was operating the car. Street
cars are every bit as dangerous az "a
railroad train. A man may be ground
to pieces just as completely under one
Of these small cars as he might be

Other Iowa cities are equally as
busy in adopting stringent milk in
spection ordinances to guard the public
health as is Marshalltown. The Fort
Dodge council now has the matter up.
and DR.. Kline, tuberculosis expert,
has made the startling statement in
support OF the proposed ordinance that
20 per cent Of the cows in the terri
tory surrounding Fort Dodge, from
whence the city derives Its milk supply,
are infected with tuberculosis. The
statement was Immediately challenged
by dairymen, and the state veterinar-
ian made an examination. He reported
90 per cent infected. In East Des
Moines this week one-half OF the herd
Of a large dairy was found to be suf-
fering from tuberculosis. and many Of
the animals were in an advanced stage.
The discovery was made when the
dairyman offered for sale several Of
his herd at the packing house. General
tuberculosis was discovered, and the
people of East Des Moines have been
drinking the milk of these same cows
for months. No wonder California and
other resorts for "lungers" are prosper
ing.

Elba Workman, who is EN-.

a miracle that he was not killed.
Workman and Billy England

frogs that were raised to the car
by a heavy chrane operated by
by air pressure. As the chrane
delivered a frog weighing 1,4OC
ponnds, held by pair of tongs
weighing 1000 pounds, the tonge
slipped loose. With a pressure OF
ZOO pounds of air behind them
the tongs flew out with terrific
force. England lodged and the
tongs flew past him; Workman
was not so fortunate. One of the
tongs struck him over the lef,
eye, knocking him down and
dazing him for a few minutes,

Information has been filed
against Lee Knickerbocker and
Freeman Norris, two young
farmers of Green township,
charged with uttering and pass
ing a forged check. A check
for $76, bearing the forged name
of F. R. Sherman, prominent
farmer of near Utica, and drawn
on the First National Bank of
Chillicothe, was cashed at the
Starkey Clothing Co.'s store late
Saturday afternoon. Knicker.
booker made purchase of cloth
ing and other goods amounting
to S22.50 and received the bal.
ance in cash. Before cashing
the check inquiry was made at
the bank, asking if the check of
Mr.. Sherman was good for the
amount stated above. Norris
stood in front of the store during
the transaction and the two left
together. After their departure
Mr.. Starkey became suspicious
and made further inquiries about
the check. The cashier at the
bank pronounced the check a
forgery, but said it was good
imitation of Mr.. Sherman's sig.
nature. Later Mr.. Sherm an was
called up by phone and stated
that he had given no check for
S76. Knickerbocker was arrested
Saturday night, near Utica, but
stoutly maintained his innocence
until after Mr.. Switzer identified
him as the man to whom he sold
the goods. Then he broke down
and implicated his brother.in- :
