NINETEEN DAYS

JUPITER PLUvlus SEEMS TO

1t seems that old Jupiter Pluvius
has totally deserted this region, for
according to the report book CT
Weather Observer Charles w. Sloan
at Fire Station No. ], and the general
appearance Of the corn and other onr
OF doors vegetation, Ottumwa has not
had single drop Of rain since July
%. Nineteen long days under blaz.
ing hot sun, without single drop 10
liven up their parched leaves, the corn
Is at present in considerable danger
from the drought. There has been no
great rain since July 10, when .65 of
an inch fell Since that time three
small rains have occurred that did
very little good. July 81 05 Of an
inch was all the precipitation, July %
1t totaled .15 and the last rain, July
%, amounted to 10 Of an inch.
A few days ago the farmers were
taking very optimistic view of things
in general, the sun having done the
crops so much good, but they were exs
pecting a sousing rain to follow imme
diately. That expected heavy shower
has not put in It's appearance yet,
and IL it does not arrive mighty soon
1t will be too late.

special trains and favorable rates,
and the college will have program
and exhibit that will prove og great In
terest to all visitors.

expressed regret at the suspension of

campus will be welcomed by large
number.
Since thell last Harvest Home excur.
sion, three years ago, the fine new
Central hall has been completed and
the new Hall of Agriculture building
making together two of the finest col
lege buildings in the world. Besides
these two new buildings an engineer
ing annex and shop have been added
to the equipment of the engineering
division of the college. Extensive i'm.
provements have been made in the
grounds The new dairy and poultry
farm. lying one-half mile south of the
campus, will, with the equipment OF
dairy herds and poultry, be an object
of great interest.
Special facilities are promised for
transferring the people.
The college is adding very valuable
equipment in live stock and will be
able from its own herds to extend a
live stock procession around the cam
pus, showing some of the prize stock
Of the middle west. Exhibits will be
made by all the college departments.
The institution is to be congratulate
ed and the people Of the state in thus
re-establishing an annual feature OF
almost as wide interest as the State
Fair.

Mr.. Osborn catches the carp with

The process is simple and the pro-
duct elevates the hitherto Obnoxious
carp to higher standard of useful
ness Huge watts of boiling water
await the thoroughly cleaned fish, IN

same. Carp are the only fish canned
by the Osborns with a rare exception
of buffalo in the spring and fall.
