Mason City, Aug. s.-Mrs. Emma
Willard, of this city, has just received
from the Iowa Central Railway Com
pany check. for $4,000, and the pay
ment of this amount to Mrs. Willard
ends the litigation which came out of
the death of Eugene j. Willard, an
Iowa Central engineer, several years
ago. He was killed in a wreck and af-
ter the catastrophe an effort to fix the
blame upon the dead engineer was
made. Emma Willard, his widow, felt
this wrong deeply and brought suit for
damages against the railroad.
The case was tried in the district
court at Albert Lea, Mimi, and Mrs.
Willard was not only given big judg-
ment but it was developed in the trial
that Eugene ]. Willard was in no way
to blame for the wreck in which he
lost his life. An appeal to the SUI
preme court of Minnesota was made
by the railroad and the decision of the
lower court was affirmed. Then the
railway company determined to end the
matter, paying the big sum to Mrs.
Willard without further litigation. This
sum is the amount of the judgment and
the accrued interest. Mrs. Willard lives
with her two children in a comfortable
little home on North Michigan avenue

Iowa Falls, Aug. 9.-Prof. George F.
Kay of the State University of Iowa,
has been along the Iowa river in this
county from Alden to Union, the past
week, securing data for the Iowa geo.
logical department, his work being
along the line of the conservation of
the water power on Iowa streams Mr..
Kay will devote two summers to this
work and expects to complete the east
ern half of the state this summer He
is at the head of the geological depart
rnent Of the state university and ex-
pressed himself as surprised that some
one had not availed himself of the
in this county. He was especially in
terested in the possibilities in this city
with its three water power sites with
in the city limits. He stated that it
would only be short time until these
would be more fully developed and that
the Iowa river would be furnishing
power for a large territory, both for
lighting and power.
Mr.. Kay was particularly interested
in the report of the Iowa geological
survey which shows that in the vicni-
ty of this city as we'll as at Eldora, are
found raw materials for the manufac-
iture of cement. clay products and even
glass. He called attention to the I'M
developed resources found hese and
pointed out by Prof. Samuel Walker
Boyer, of Ames, in his report in the
Iowa geological report He expressed
himself as believing that it was only
a short time until the combination
found here of an abundance of raw
material and cheap power together
with superior transportation facilities,
would be united by capital and this
city become a manufacturing point of
in Iowa. He said that the
chief ingredients in cement were dolo-
mite and lime stone and as both are
found here in almost inexhaustible
quantities, it is believed that the CO.
.nent age, which is just now dawning,
means the ultimate utilization of the
raw materials found SO abundantly in
and about Iowa Falls.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Aug. 9.-Mempers Of the
state board Of control have some crit
icism against the government for pick
ing out a shipment Of -four to a state
institution as a means of testing the
law on bleached -four. They question
whether the law can be made to hold
in case of that kind since the flour
was not sold to a dealer and was not
taken from the hands of a dealer as the
law specifies. 1t was in the hands of
the state institution which is con-
sumer.
Members of the board had not the
slightest hint the -four was 10 be tax
en- till notified by the superintendent.
1t was taken too on Friday while bak-
ing day comes on Saturday and there
were $50 girls to bake for. 1t was thus
made doubly hard for the institution.
Later it was learned that this is to
be made test case In that event
the members of the board think they
might at least have been told in ad-
vance so they could have prepared for
it and had other flour on hand.
Years ago -four was never bleached
Then it became popular to have the
Hour look white and nearly ali milling
concerns have since bleached it to
made it perfectly white. The I'M
bleached is slightly creamy colored
/ There are several processes of bleach
ing it. One of these is to subject it
to treatment of gas which is made
by an electric fame discharged to
certain volume of air. This process is
the -four TO one million parts of flour
and this small per cent of nitrites dis
appears in the baking process.
4 There are other processes which may
be more injurious to the flour Some
of the Touring mills have decided 10
fight the ruling of Secretary Wilson
4 and the Updike Milling Company Of
Omaha which sold the flour to the
I ,Mitchellville school is one of these
/ Others have decided TO comply and
make no bleached -four whatever in the
future.
Because the frost prevented the COM
plete fertilization of the fruit blossoms
in the spring the fruit crop is growing
gradually worse. This is the opinion
of State Horticulturist Wesley Greene.
Mr. Greene today sent out reports for
