BUTTER GOES SOARING.
Retais at 40 Cents in Wateroo-But-
terine in Demand,

Waterloo. Dec 23.-Buter on the To-
cal market reached the record price
Wednesday morning, when it was re-
failing at straight 40 cents. In the
history of the present merchants this
is the highest point the market has
ever reached and to make the situa-
ton more distressing to those who
must have it at any cost the zenith
is not expected to have been reached.
There is general shortage and dairy
men and dealers are looking for a
further advance before the increase in
the milk relieves the situation.
The price to the consumer of ordin-
airy means who has a family to sup
ply places the commodity in line with
the luxuries of the wealthy who alone
can afford to stock the larder with
the high priced article. AT 40 cents
per pound it is beyond the reach of
the ordinary citizen and workingman
and the change to substitute of
cheaper varieties must be resorted to.
Even at prices that have prevailed
for the past month many have switched
to the butterine route and are buying

before State Auditor Bleakley to make
a showing as to why the county should
be relieved of making good to the per-
manent school fund of the state loss
of about $1,000 because the security
for the loan slid into the Missouri riv-

be entitled School Fund vs.. Missouri

attachment and execution. In looking
up to find out how to proceed in such
case the popularity was disclosed
that in case the state auditor judicially
determines that the county is not re-

decision. In such contingency he is a
court of last resort. But if he finds the
county is responsible from any negli-

course is to ask the legislature to APP

the school fund can not lose, even if
