Fifteen Miles
Race Proposed

AS the different runners and their
managers" do not seem able to come
to any definite understanding as re.
CARDS race over any distance. the
Athletic ParN people have come
through with a proposition that Ger.
tainly LOOKS good TO most of the local
followers of the game.
The directors of the Park will hold
u free.for all race on November Z, and
the distance will be fifteen miles. No
entrance fee will be charged and the
prize MONEY will be two-thirds of the
net proceeds of the gate receipts.
The first and second man In the race
will get the largest prizes, and the
sum should be substantial one.
II is good to see the Park manage.
mcnt coming through with this pro
posal and there can be no doubt as
othe success of the race. All the
runners of the Territory should enter
tor the event, and with the available
talent u fine field could be made up.
Connie Hayes and Dial Fahy will get
the opportunity they have been seek.
ing, and the two men will run well In
the race. Most Of the other pros will
have a cut ut the fifteen miles race,
and even II some of them do not care
to compete, they wont be missed ter
ribly.
The move of the Athletic Park peo-
pie is Thought well of by all the sports
who want to see another race as soon
as possible, without any further bick.
ering and squabbling about coin.

We deal with our men on similar basis.
 Cur Copy Staff is made up of the ablest men we know. Each can earn more here than any where else, so long as he holds his own.
 But, when any man lets another outsell him. the other has his place.
 For advertising is war; and expensive war. The stakes are tremendous. There is no room for incompetents.
 Men or agencies must rise or fall by their victories or their defeats. Ne
 So, we make no contracts with our brilliant mer, and we ask none from any client.
 There is way to know if your advertising brings the utmost results that possible.
 There is a way to prove-easily and quickly If we can sell more than others.
 The proof can be given without any commit nent on your part. It will be such that no man can dispute it.
 The result may be worth thousands of dol- lars to you. We have made it worth millions to some.

Iowa Corn Best i'm Years.

Despite heavy rains and cold
weather, Iowa's big corn crop is Z
per cent better than it was in 1908.
1t averages per cent better than it
has in the past ten years. Other
crops are almost equally as good, as
shown in the monthly summary sent
out by the Iowa weather and crop
service.
The condition of corn is not only
better than it was year ago, but
there is 2 per cent more acreage than
there was in 1908. This is consider
ed remarkable in view of the ex-
treme wet weather, which is report
ed to have washed out so many fields.
However, the acreage on July l was
per cent less than what it was on
menced.
The reports show that pastures
head the list in the relative growth
and condition. Their average is 1O3
Fer cent. The potato and hay crops
come next with an average of 100
per cent.
Small grain is doing exceptionally
well. The harvest has already be-
gun in southeastern parts of the
state. while in the northern districts
it is heading nicely.
The fruit crop as rule is excellent.

Farmers Own the Roads.

The country roads of Iowa belong
to the owners Of the land adjoin-
ing, the landowners on either side
owning to the middle of the road,
notes Wallace's Farmer But this
ownership is subject entirely to the
rights of the public to use these
roads for the ordinary purpose of
travel. The public has no right to
the grass growing on the road. the
trees, the sod, stones, or anything
else on the road. Everything there
belongs to the owner of the adjofn-
ing land. The public has a perfect
right to use the road for the purposes
of travel, but for any other purpose
the public is as much a trespasser on
the side of the road as within the en-
closed field or the adjoining land.
Movers and horse-traders have a
right to the use of the road for the
purpose of travel, just as anyone
else; but they have no right to use 1t
for the purpose of pasturing their
stock, and owners can compell them
to discontinue this practice.

Legal HOLIDAYS.

Iowa citizens will hereafter enjoy
nine legal holidays, or perhaps more
than that number. as a proclamation
from the governor of the state or
from the president OF the United
States is sufficient to make any date
on the calender legal holiday. The
following days have been set aside by
the code as holidays: The first day
of the week, called Sunday, the first
day of January, the twelfth day OF

After the fourth of July every boy
under fourteen must become a loaf
er. He can not get work in Iowa,
except on the farms. This is one of
the worst laws ever enacted in any
state. The law should have made an
exception of the three summer
months. The boy who spends his
time loafiing is apt to be a boy start
ed on the wrong road. There are
hundreds of boys under fourteen
who would rather be at work earn
ing their living while they are loaf
ing. This new law needs amending
and needs it at once.-Cedar Rapids

600 head of swine. The number is
one seventh of the entire swine pro-
duction of the United States. And
it's population of four hogs to eve
ry one of Iowa's 100000 people.
These 100000 hogs are worth $63.-
$50. 900, nearly one-fifth the value
of all the hogs produced in the

greater than the combined product
of any two states. Iowa hogs shrpass

the state.
