cepting on holidays. was introduced al
the monthly meeting OF the board
Monday night.
This amendment was introduced by
C. II. t. Boardman, and as action can
not be taken until the next regula,
meeting, it was referred to special
committee consisting of MIR. Boardinan

1t is the purpose OF the amendment

ment also provides for the library

1t is the contention of Mr.. Board
man that the library. according to its

it could be used by that part OF The
public for which 1t was especially
built-the working men, who by the

that these men are paying taxes levied
for library purposes and 1t should al

PRIZES GIVEN FOR MARES.
Charles Buck, Of Rhodes, Wins First
Prize in Hot Competition.


Prize in Hot Competition.
After, one the hottest competitions
he had ever judged, Professor II. K
Bliss Tuesday afternoon awarded the
cash prizes of $50, s15 and $40 for the
three best Percheron mares 2 years
old or over. First prize was won by
Charles Buck, of Rhodes; second, G. B.
Damien, vanclete; and third. Marshall
county farm.
Ten Mares were entered, and each
one of them was a beautiful animal
Professor Bliss spent almost two
hours picking the winners, it taking
that length of time because of the
general excellence of all of the AMI
mails entered.
Professor Bliss said after the prizes
had been awarded that it was the
classiest and largest group of horses
that he had judged at any short course
or fair for years.
1t is very probable that the county's
mare which was taken from off a
coal wagon and entered, would have
won first place had she been carrying
a little more flesh. The other two
animals had her bested only in this
one particular.

hibition.
With a total of 1850 ears on eXhi-
bition the entries for the corn show
were closed Tuesday, and the judging
was begun There are approximately
800 less ears in the show this year
than last, but it is the general opin-
ion of those expert judges of corn who
have attended both short courses that
the general quality of the corn entered
this year is far ahead of last var.
Fred Mccullough, of Hartwick, who
raises some of the best corn produced
in the state, and who was one of the
winners of a number Of prizes last
winter, said Tuesday that the quality
of the corn in the present exhibit was
fully 40 per cent better than last year
"The corn on display here" said Mr.
Mccullough. who knows what really
good corn is, makes the best showing
for quantity and quality of any short
course | have attended this winter. =
Mr.. Mccullough has been to a num-
Der of the short courses where he has
been winning prizes with his corn.
Eighty corn growers, some of whom
are from outside of the county, have
entered from one to half a dozen lots
of ears in the exhibition. Corn has been
entered in most of the classes. The
judging of the corn began Tuesday
This work is being done by c. A. Cald-
well, a student of Iowa State College
and M. A. Hauser of Albion. Mr.. Hau-
ser, however is not judging; any of the
corn from the district of the county in
which he lives. Prof. p. G. Holden has
general supervision of the judging
and whenever the judges fail to agree
in ranking samples, Professor Holden
lis called in to decide. Professor Holden
spent three quarters of an hour Tues
day afternoon judging two ten-ear lots
on which the other Judges could not
agree 1t is probable that the Judging
of the corn will be completed some time
Thursday. Another of the very we'll

recollectiong however, that every other
important judicial decision of questions
raised In the interstate commerce and
antitrust laws has been followed by a
period of disturbance and depression In
the stock market, each of such periods,
moreover, being considerably prolonged.
The first hour of today's stock market
saw a contest strenuously wased between
the conflicting elements in tho specula-
ton in which the balance was fairly
turned in favor of the reactionists in
spite of the Vnost determined efforts at
supports During this period of the day $

total business was transacted.
The buying, having achieved its pur-
pose of checking the decline, diminished.
The Copper stocks suffered particularly
from the assumption that the new de-
cision would prevent the proposed con-
solidation of the principal copper pro-
ducers. United States Steel and Union
Poetic association reflected the special
bearing. which the decision was sup
posed to have on these companies. Read
ing, on the other hand. was strong
