There is little or no abatement OF
excitement tina has arisen at LOOMS
over the location of a r implement
factory at that place. h work is be-
ing.carried forward right along. Con
crete foundations for the three b1uld-
ings, 6Ox1OO, are being laid and a
larger force of men has been secured
to rush the buildings to completion by
the first of the year. People are rush
ing in there to buy plots and the prices
have risen enormously in the past ten
DAYS. Lots that sold for $50 and $75
to 500 each cannot be touched for
less than $500, and many of the own
ers refuse to place a price on their
property and do not care to sell. me
implement company has placed It's
ildin on the opposite side Of the
track from which the town is located,
and there is a possibility that they in
tend to start business and residence
buildings over on thai side to increase
the price of their own land, of which
they own eighty acres, which they do
not propose to use for manufacturing
purposes.
Sioux Falls is going to have the OPP
portunity to witness another splendid

western Iowa, has offered a fine line Of
premiums for the different breeds, be-
sides an unusual good assortment of
special prizes. Probably for variety it
will be the best show that has ever
been held there, for the association
has been assured of a large entry in
the different popular and also rarer
breeds, besides a large number of en-
tries in pheasants, squirrels, a large
variety of doves and other pet stock.
