CROPS GOOD IN PoWEsHlEk
Dat. Is About the ~nIy Grain With
Small Yield.

Special to Times Republican.
Brooklyn, Aug. 19.-Threshing Is now
the order of the day here, and the oats
are turning out light and the yield
Is small; barley is good and wheat the
best in years. The corn crop is maxi
ing good gains. This is the year when
nearly every stalk has two. ears, and
now the ears are beginning to hang
over in the manner that gladdens the
heart of every farmer and gives prom
Use of full cribs in the fall. All the up
land and well drained bottom lands
show fine fields OF corn, but where
the drainage is not perfect yellow
spots are in evidence. Poweshiek is
one of the few counties in southeast
ern Iowa that is not intersected by
river. The Iowa river just misses the
northeast corner of the county, and the
Skunk cuts off small corner of the
southwest. Most of the county is roll
ing land, there being no river bottoms
and very little bluffy land such as lies
along the rivers. On this account
there is very small per cent of waste
corn land in this county, and at this
time this county makes a very favor
able showing for good crop this
year.
At no time in the year do these
iPoweshiek farms present a more at
tractive appearance than now. Thrift
and prosperity are evident on every
hand. Here are comfortable homes
and commodious barns surrounded by
orchards and shade trees. Here are
well fenced farms, and our farmers
take pride inl keeping the weeds cut
and their roads dragged. The pas
lures are yet green and well stocked
with fat cattle and sleek horses. The
new mown meadows and the grain
fields with their rows Of shocks or WELL
shaped stacks, the waving corn fields
and the populous hog lots adjoining,
and awaiting their maturity, all go to
make a picture in which everybody
can take pride, and also adds conclu-
sive evidence that the man who wants
to farm makes no mistake In owning
an Iowa farm

Mason City, Aug. 19.-The Cerro

Gus institution. Without expanding
money for labor and utilizing the
efforts of those necessarily making that
place their home the farm is managed
so as to be a source of profit rather
than an expense to the country.

a mare valued at 5000 and a mule val

an excellent showing for the manage
ment and it is stated that no other
county in the state makes nearly as
good Q showing in profit.

NATIONAL BANKS
MUST PAY TAX

FRANKFORT, KY, Nov. 30
The court of appeals has handed
down a decision in the case of
State Auditor s. w. Hagar against
the Citizens National bank, of Le-
banon, and the First National bank,
of Lexington, in which it upheld
the act of 1906.
This decision is one of the most
important handed down by the APP
pellate court in years, as it affects
every national bank in the state,
holding, as it does. that the govern
ment bonds owned by the national
banks are subject to valuation and
assessment by the state board of
valuation and assessment.
The opinion says:
1T was not the intention of the
national banking act. nor has it
been the purpose of the supreme
court. as We understand its opinion,
to allow national banks any advan-
tage over other moneyed capital
or TO permit any discrimination in
their favor as against other bank
ing institutions"

RATE AT WHICH VALUABLE
ANIMALS DISAPPEAR INDi.
GATES WORK OF PROBES.
SIGNALS IN THIS CITY

Dog thieves are reaping rich
harvest in CANNES in this city and
have thus far managed to evade the
police. During the past few months
many dogs have been stolen, yet
not solitary capture for this d.
Tense has been made. Two moEe
missing dogs We're added to the list
last night Homer Schule's valuable
collie disappeared from 1908 Fouf-
teenth av., and Mrs. Somers, ef
Sprague, reported the loss of her
cocker spaniel.
Dog thieves make a big profit.
Almost any kind of a canine may
be sold for s., and in most cases
thoroughbreds bring from $40 to
$50. A dog is the easiest thing to
steal unless the animal is vicious
and will not make up with a
steanger. But there are so many
good dogs that do make up with
strangers that professional thief
spends little time with an animal
which requires coaxing.
In some cases the stolen animals
have returned to their homes with
the cnewed ends of ropes attached
to their necks.
Local police pay little attention
to this branch of thievery. A dog
is only dog, it seems, and has no
value in their eyes.

Bratt, who for a week has been
kept in Jail here while the police
have been trying to locate the own
err of box full of jewelry which
was in his possession when Detec-

Sheriff Bartell brought a com
plete list of jewelry lost by Roy S.
Smith on the night of Oct. hip,
which tallies with the goods taken
from Bratt Bratt's deed is char
acterized as one of the smoothest
burglaries ever perpetrated in
Colorado. He worked directly I'M
der an arc light in front of the
Smith establishment. With the aid
of a carpenters bit he bored holes
through the door and then broke
out piece large enough to get his
hand through. Then it was easy
work to let himself within, where
he worked safe from observation.
With the arc light shining outside
he could see anyone approaching
and at the same time work without
himself being seen. He stole prac-
tically all of Smiths stock except
the more valuable watches and
rings, which We're locked within the
safe. He secured more than
$1,000 worth of jewelry, besides
three automobile gloves from the
clothing store which occupies one
side of the jewelry store.
Bratt stated to Chief Rice this
morning that he would go back to
Colorado without the formality of
requisition papers.

AFFILIATE

The local carpenters union de-
cided last night by a unanimous
vote to affiliate with the State
Federation of Labor at special
meeting called for the purpose of
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of affil-
iation. c. R. Case, who is in the
city as the representative of the
federation, addressed the meeting
at length. He pointed out that it
was absolutely essential for all la
Dor unions throughout the state to
actively participate in the cam
paign inaugurated by the fedora
ton for just Legislation in working
mems interests.
He outlined what had already
been accomplished, and pointed
out the necessity for united action
on the part of labor to combat the
efforts of the corporations of the
state to strangle every proposed
law that would offer labor redress
in the courts.
Mr.. Case was supported by men,
bers Of the union and the vote was

the state
The success attendant on the eff

position of the federation in this

having been weakened in numbers
by the withdrawal of the local bar
tenders union on account of the
seating of clergymen at the annual
meetings of the federation.

Some of The autumn wraps are seer
in shades OF gold, straw, chamois
ochre, buff end apricot. They are
usually made up of broadcloth, anC
lined with white or contrasting
color.
The wide hem of black, Natter
blue, or a contrasting color contin-
ues to be the popular feature on
evening costumes. This not only
gives a prety effect to the skirt, but
adds weight to the thin fabric and
holds II down. Frequently these
bands are trimmed with passemen-
terle effects at the joining, the trim
ming continuing upward.
A pretty frock that seems to be a
popular model for a young school
girl, is made on similar lines TO the
sailod suit. The blouse slips over the
head and there are wide Gibson
plaits, which give breadth to the
shoulders. The chemisette, flat, mar
row collar, turn back cuffs and belt,
are made Of plaid silk or a color that
would brighten the dress. The skirt
is nine gored and is trimmed with
two bands of the silk near the bot
tom.
Nets for trimmings as well as for
gowns are In great demand. En-
broidered nets have taken the place
of laces. to some extent. One espe-
cially pretty black net was embroid-

They are so invisibly plaided that in
one light they seem blue, in another
