that YOUR effort to arrange an inter-

of our former employees and myself
was done at my request. which. OF
course you know, is not the case. You
asked me if would meet a committee

IOWA FLOUR

Hammond & Son, Of LeGrand, Call At
tention to tho Reports Of the Iowa
Wheat crop-Tests Prove It's the
Best Grade and Makes the Best
Flour.
Hammond & Son, proprietors of the
LeGrand roller mills, and who manus
fncture the famous Banner -four, as
we'll as Crescent, Quaker Cream. ETC.,
are believers In the great state of Iowa
as wheat grower. They call attention
to the fact that there Is no longer any
necessity for Iowa people to go out
side the state to get good -four. Mar
shall county farmers have harvested
9. bumper crop of both winter and
spring wheat that Is equal in quality to
the best grown In any state. According
10 reports gathered by the Milling &
Grain News, of Kansas City, the aver
age yield of winter wheat In Kansas is
fourteen bushels to the acre. The
same paper gives the average yield of
winter wheat In Nebraska at eighteen
bushels. AS far as we have heard from
winter wheat threshed In Marshall
county the yield is away up close to
forty bushels to the acre of very SUI
perior grade of wheat The spring
wheat was never better in quality than
1t is this year and the yield will be
above the average. The early Java sin-
PRODUCED in the eastern part of the
county some five years ago has never
tested less than 60 pounds and in sew
eral instances it has tested as high as
IS pounds to the bushel. All these re-
ports go to prove that Iowa has the
soil and the climate capable OF pro-
ducing as fine wheat as can be pro-
duced any wnere in this county. and
all that Is needed to place her in the
front ranks Of wheat producing states
is for the farmers to spend as much
thought and energy in trying to i'm
prove the quality and yield of their
wheat crop as they do In breeding
good seed corn, and fine hogs and cat
tie. The field is open for intelligent
farmers to- exploit and the promise is
favorable for large returns to the man
who engages in it,
The amount of money sent cut of the
state for flour and its by.-products
reaches up into the millions of dol
lars If one-half of this outflow OF
money could be secured to the home
trade and distributed thruout the state
1T would add very materially to its
wealth and prosperity.

Local Comment

Whether Armstrong clears himself of
the charge of pawnbroking or not he
stands convicted of having criticized
the administration.
Yes they are moving to Marshalltown
but they would move faster if there
were more houses here into which to
move.
Amusement lovers have been prom
ised many treats for the approaching
theatrical season, which is to begin
little earlier than usual this year. There
will not be so many attractions on the
road this season. but for the most
part they will be better ones.
According to statements by the man
ayers Marshalltown's chautauqua
failed as money making venture this
season. as was also the case last year.
There have been sufficient number OF
people interested, however. to pledge
their support for next season In ad-
vance ticket taking, and the chautau-
qua is assured for another year at
least 1t would not seem necessary that,
in a town the size of Marshalltown,
chautauqua venture should need to fail
in returning profit on the investment
In the smaller towns they appear to
paw better than in the larger ones, pre-
sumabiy because the talent is less ex-
pensive, and operating expenses are
accordingly lessened.
Reports from the county indicate
that winter wheat is being grown sue
cessfully, and that big yields, OF
very superior product, have been har-
vested in different parts of the county.
Farmers are more interested in the
prospects OF the county as wheat
producing section than ever before, and

What are you. doing with your sur

those who have passed thru the ordeal
of hospital or sick room setge real
ICES what joy and comfort there is in
the sweet scented blossoms that are

this true when the patients are con-

them to the hospital Here in Mar

hospitals, and some day, If you are SO
unfortunate as to be compelled to be-

HoCH GETS A SILVER DOLLAR.
Widow in Syracuse Wants State to
Redeem a Bad One.

A silver dollar, battered and worn al
most out of recognition, came in Cover
nr Hoeh's mail today, together with a
pitiful letter which ought to inspire
some poet to write another Washer
woman's Song. The silver dollar look
ed as though it had been run over by
a street car, used as target for buck
shot hammered and dented. But on the
face the words I'm God We Trust
stood out as plain and clear as ever and
so far as could be discovered, the dol
lar was of approximately original
weight.
The letter was from the little town of
Syracuse in Hamilton county, few
miles from the Colorado line. 1t was
poorly spelled and lacked much of being
a model of rhetorical construction. 1t
said:
Our kind governor, I come to you
about money being of no worth because
of some person having ruined it. Here
is a ruined dollar, and l had it passed
onto me, and can get nothing out of it.
1 would never have accepted it had
known 1t was of no worth. Either the
United States or the state ought to
make it good and punish any person of
whom would thus ruin its coin. 1 am
a mother with six little tots, and earn
all 1 can, but am sorry to need this
dollar and not be able to use 1T. Truly,
MRS. MARY E. KRIEGH."
The dollar will be submitted to some
Topeka bankers and may be it will be
redeemed at it's face value.

Cuba Offers the Latest Induce
ment for Horsemen.
Ideal Conditions for t he Meeting
Down at Havana.
BIG PURSES OFFERED.
Seven Thousand Season Tickets
and 10000 Single for Sunday.
Is Considered by a Returned
American as Model Track.

New York, March 20.-G. Theobald os
the old harness racing firm of Theobald
& Patterson, of Concord, Mass, return
ed with his wife on the Saratoga yes
teroay ard told of the bright prospects
of the Cuban Racing association, with
its s500,000 Of capital, at Estation Inyer-
nal, six miles out of Havana. He pic
tured the track as the future Belmont
of the Western Hemisphere.
AS representative of eight or ten
prominent stable owners whose horses
run at New Orleans, Bennings and 9TH
er tracks. Mr.. Theobald went to Ha-
vana to learn conditions and determine
if racing would pay. Three or four
owners sent down horses. but his own
firm did not think it would pay for
them to send horses under a guarantee
of only sixteen days racing. They want
ed thirty days.
"On March IL the association opened
the new track, which is six miles from
the city and perfectly accessible bytrol-
ley" said Mr.. Theobald. 1.-THE track
is one and one-eighth miles plus 180
feet long. AS soon as it is put in prop
er shape it will be the best winter track
in the world. Although stands, grand
stand, etc, were incomplete, it was de-
termined to open it on the 18th, and
10000 persons were at the first running.
"The track was closed on Friday and
Saturday and opened again on last
Sunday. When the Saratoga left on
Saturday 1000 season tickets had been
sold and 10000 single admissions for
Sunday. It was figured 10000 persons
would be in attendance.
'All the people in Cuba are inclined
toward sports. The Spanish, the South
America and the Island elements of
the population will bet on cock fight,
a game of jai alai or a horse race.
They love something simple, attended
with a quick result, but even the more
complicated game of baseball is max
ing advances. 1t will be the ideal track
for winter racing"
Mr. Theobald inquired anxiously for
the outlook at Albany and was consid-
erably disturbed over the prospect of
the passage of the anti-racing bills. He
has worked all through the ewest around
the Grand Circuit. "The days of har-
ness racing are over in this country"
said he, never to return Track op-
erations in the future will be all in rum
ming. The people demand runners in
stead of trotterS."

Keep Your
Bowels Open

It Is a noticeable fact, and one which
any doctor will verify that people who
suffer most often from disease are the
ones who have the most difficulty in
keeping their bowels open. Regular
bowel action is half the battle of health.
People who have tendency to con-
stipation must of necessity use something
to help nature along. This should not
be violent aid like salts or purgative
waters, cathartic pills or powders, but a
syrup liquid that will oil the intestines
and membranes that it comes in contact
with. Children, women and weak
people generally should never be given a
strong physic, as it weakens the system. And 1t
is futile for the strongest person because the
relief is simply for that day, and then the reac-
ton sets In and you are worse OF than before.
What is needed is 2 prompt bnt gentle laxa-
