worked at the Iowa State Fair this
year. The Iowa State College, which
will have an exhibit at the building
formerly used for woman's rest
building, will conduct parties about the
state fair grounds. Each morning be-
ginning at s o'clock, parties of ten or
fifteen or more who are visiting the
state fair will be made up and placed
in charge of some member OF the coll
lege faculty or some senior student of
the college and they will be taken about
the grounds and shown the sights.
The idea is that it shall be of spe-
cial benefit and value to the farmers.
Groups of farmers who are especially
interested in cattle will be made up
and placed in charge Of some one who
is an authority on cattle. The party
will then be taken thru the cattle barns
and the college man in charge will give
them valuable information on the cat
tie and how to judge cattle. Othe.
groups will be made up to go thru the
horse barns and others thru the agri-
cultural and machinery divisions. The
farmers attending the fair can thus see
the entire fair with the aid Of a guide
who thoroughly understands the Sec
tons of the fair that are visited.
1t is an innovation but it is believed
that it will be of vast benefit to the
farmers and others as we'll and will

CHARTER CITIES EXEMPT
Issue is Raised in Saloon Case in Daven.
port That the Moon Law is Not
Operative in Cities Holding Special
Charter,

Davenport, Aug. 21.-The point shat
the Moon law does not apply to special
charter cities in Iowa was raised in the
district today, when Attorneys Ficke
and Ficke of Davenport filed brief on
behalf Of Ernest Wenzel. a leading
Davenport saloonkeeper, who is being
prosecuted by the civic federation.
The attorneys call the attention of
the court to the fact that the Moon law
is not by title or otherwise an amend
ment of the so-called Iowa mulct law,
but is law by itself, and that no pro-
vision was made by the legislature for
its application to Iowa special charter
cities, Davenport, Dubuque, Glenwood,
Keokuk. Muscatine and Wapello.
If the courts sustain the contest the
Moon law regulating Iowa's saloons
Will not apply in those cities.

REMEMBER The PROPHETS.

ktMtMbtk l1t PkUPHElS
1t is believed everywhere that
prophet is not without honor save
in his own country and too often this
is true but the people of central Iowa
should not permit SO common an
error to hide the fact that Lennox
Torrid Zone furnaces have the utmost
honor in all other countries east, west,
north and south.
For instance the largest jobber of
furnaces in the Canadian Northwest
years ago selected Lennox steel
furnaces for his use turnout that
northern climate because of their
powerful heating capacity from their
upright steel construction and indirect
radiators.
Again, big dealers in Cincinnati,
Pittsburg and Indianapolis are send
ing west to Marshalltown for Lennox
furnaces because of their gas tight
steel construction being SO superior
to all cast iron sectional furnaces on
the market.
Then, thruout Kansas, Oklahoma
and Texas, residence and public build
ing heating is done very largely with
Lennox steel furnaces because of their
simplicity. Dealers can set them
readily, people can operate them as
easily as any kitchen range and they
are long lived and good heaters.
In Iowa, Nebraska, the Dakotas,
Minnesota, Illinois and Wisconsin
they are sold everywhere.
But it is out west that the Lennox
prophets are in greatest honor. For
years the biggest dealer in Denver
has sold Lennox furnaces. Now no
other furnace can exceed the Lennox
in Spokane, Tacoma, Seattle, Port
land or San Francisco while at Los
Angeles the dealer who does 90 per
cent of all the heating business IN
that vicinity handles Lennox furnaces
and recently has secured the contract
for heating the million dollar Hunt
ington residence in Pasadena with
Lennox furnaces.
Not long ago the San Francisco dealer installed
] Lennox furnaces in almost all Of the ward school
buildings of San Jose, CAL, and car loads OF these
furnaces are going westward the Great Divide
from the Marshalltown factory every week.
