IOWA PACKERS WIN
Boardman & Lawrence Receive Word
Of Favorable Decision of Interstate
Commerce Commission in Independ-
ent Packers Case.

The interstate commerce commission
In All opinion by Commissioner Prouty,
noted in the news columns, have
handed down a decision of great in
terest locally as well as to the state
at large.
c. II. E. Boardman, of the firm of
Boardman & Lawrence has during all
the hearings represented the interests
Of the Iowa Independent Packers
whose plants are located at Marshall
town, Waterloo. Cedar Rapids and OF
tumwa and Mason City, and orally ar
gued their case before the full COM
mission in the final hearing in Wash
ington in the early part of last June.
Mr.. Boardman states with reference to
the case:
THE decision of the commission is
full and complete victory for the in
terror packers of Iowa and not only
enables them to continue in business
but establishes a precedent that local
Industries will in the future be care
fully guarded by the interstate COM
merce commission. The commission
recognizes the fact that to establish
the rates sought would be to the inter-
est of the Chicago banker and close
the doors of Britain & Company, r.
M. Sinclair, John Morrell & Company
and the Rath Packing industry of Wa
terloo and Decker & Son of Mason
City. Such a result would have been
nothing short of a calamity to the peo-
pie of Marshalltown and of Iowa"
He says that in this respect the COM
mission states:
Certain packers located at interior
Iowa points interviewed in this pro-
ceeding, introduced testimony upon the
trial. and were heard in argument.
Their position was that to reduce the
rates upon live stock from Iowa points
to Chicago without a corresponding
reduction in rate upon their product,
which was produced from this same
Iowa live stock, would work to the adj
vantage of the Chicago packer. 1t is
evident that the effect of reduction
in live stock rates must be as stated by
those intervenors."
Continuing Mr.. Boardrnan says:
But outside Of the immediate i'm
portance of the decision is the prece-
dent now established by the commits
sion that the Capitalization Of manu-
featuring industries in the large cities
will not be fostered by the commission
and that the local Industries of Iowa
will not be compelled to move to Chi
capo in order to do business With This
thought evidently In mind the commits
sion granted to the farmers feeding
in transit rate and by their refusal
to reduce live stock rates to Chicago
have assured to the Iowa interior
packers what is the equivalent of a
in transit rate. The decision
thus removing menace to the future
of their business. I look to see these'
local industries increase the capacity
of their plants at all points,"

BENGTSON'S IDEA
His Homo Thoroughly Modernized
With installation Of Exposed SAM
tary Plumbing - A Hint to Owners
of EARLY Built Homes.

People whose homes were built be-
fore the up to date methods now em-
ployed by plumbers were known often
think 1t impossible to have their homes
modernized in this way. N. p. Bengt-
son who lives at 527 North First street
has demonstrated that ones home can
be modernized so far as plumbing is
concerned no matter how or when
built. He has Just had the McCarten
Plumbing Company install a complete
plumbing system that Is in every way
up to date and a job of which he may
we'll be proud. The sanitary exposed
plumbing lends itself readily to install
lation in old houses and the McCarten
Company have done numerous jobs of
this kind in Marshalltown to the en-
tire satisfaction of the owners. A good
plan is to have the McCarten people
look over the property and estimate
the cost. That much costs nothing and
YOU get a good idea of what can be
done along this line.

CAKE THAT IS BETTER.
1t Doesn't Pay to Bake Them at Home
When You Can Buy tho Right Kind.

The only reason why a woman
bakes cake is because she believes
she can make 1t better than baker.
There is no economy in it. If you
knew you could buy cake that would
taste as good as one you made at
home, and If You knew it was made
in a clean sanitary bakery. you'd buy.
would you not? Well. this Is what the
Standard bakery offers, and invites
you to prove 1t. Few housekeepers.
no matter how skilful have the facil-
tiles we have for making nice cakes,
and we know you will be more than
salts fed. Why not telephone for one
Of our cakes for lunch or dinner.
