Articles of Agreement Will
Probably Be Drawn Up and
Circulated About the City in
Short Time.
THINK THIRTY DAYS
TOO SHORT A TIME
Doubt If a Strike for That
Short Period Would Have
Much Effect on the Great
Packing Houses.

Among the Shopmen of the city the
question of joining in the mammoth
strike of NEST consumers against the
meat trust, 10 compel lower prices is
being agitated and the proposition is
meeting with much favor
Ii would not be surprising il some
of the more forward in the movement
would draw up articles of agreement To
abstain from the use of meat for thir-
ty days and circulate the pledges over
the city for signatures. Those most in
sympathy with the movement say
there would be enough signers to the
agreement to assist materially i'm the
strike.
More Than Thirty Days.
1t is believed by large number OF
the sympathizers i'm the movement that
a longer period than thirty days will
be necessary to effectively organize the
strike in this country.
In some cities where the movement
has been instituted the strike has hurt
the dealers as much as the trust which
apparently seems to be responsible for
the high prices. Here, however. the
matter is \ferent and many of the
dealers are in sympathy with the
movement. providing il becomes gen.
eral enough over the United States To
effect the big corporations instead of
only the dealers. They say that il the
Strike is confined to only a few iocali-
ties they will be the ones to suffer. and
not the big concerns. which are respon-
sible.
At a recent meeting in Dayton iR one
of the large assembly halls. resolutions
to the effect that the signers would
starve before they would eat meat at
the present high prices were dra On MP.
Several copies were made and the petit
tons are being distributed among the
different shops.

To the Farmers Of Iowa.

Let us not forget the condition
that so many of our farmers expert
enced last fall by having Jack Frost
seriously visiting the seed corn be-
fore we had secured that for next
years planting. Every farmer knows
that low degrees of temperature
will seriously injure his seed corn,
especially when the corn contains
a large amount of moisture. If
we go out into our corn fields right
now it will be found that in the same
hill for example, you will find two
stalks of corn each bearing an ear,
each ear about the same size, and
ity they will be practically equal,
husk turning brown, the corn well
to pick for seed, while the other ear,
although growing on stalk in the
same hill, it will be found to be very
immatured, containing high per-
centage of moisture, and unfit for
seed purposes.
Now if you were to pick your seed
corn today what would you do?
Why of course you would pick the
we'll matured ear, and discard the
other; but suppose you do not get
your seed corn now, and leave it I'M
til it is time to fill the crib, and you
come to this same hill containing
these two stalks with the same two
ears. 1t will be impossible to tell
which of the two ears matured be-
fore the other one, and what will
you do? Why naturally take them
both for seed. 1t would mean mill
lions of bushels of corn in increased
yields per acre to the state of Iowa
If her farmers would go right out
into the field this month (the month
of September) and pick well ma
tured ears right off the stalk.
1t will not be necessary to take
small, inferior ears. 1t will be found
that there are plenty of large ma
ture ears, if we but look for them.
When we stop to consider the fact
that it on.y takes twelve ears OF
corn to plant an acre, it indeed is a
very serious matter to leave this
seed corn of. ours out in the field on
the stalk, where Jack Frost is Ii
able to beat us to it. Let. us not
forget the experience of last year
1t is just good business that every
ear of corn we use for seed be pick
ed between now and the first of
October. The large, well matured
ears are there in your field, and
whenever you select twelve of them
you have enough to plant an acre.
1t will not be necessary to run
Seed Corn Special trains next spring
to illustrate the poor condition OF
the seed corn if our farmers will
select their seed corn before the
cold weather, and hang it up in a
proper place for storage.
When selecting your corn for seed
do not forget the Eighth Annual Elk

Another Coal Company Leasing Land
at GAINESVILLE.

If the people owning land adjoin
ing the town on the north are willing
to lease their lands, prospecting will
begin whiting 80 days for another
coal mine.
1t will be remembered that we
mentioned some time ago that a
strong company headed by Mr.. q.
T. Evans, President of the Smoky
Hollow Coal Company, would like
to lease block near town and open
mine. Their representative, Mr..
j. A. Evans, of Des Moines, met
with our citizens interested at the
time and submitted form of lease
which has since been under consid-
Grafton by the landowners.
BY this lease the Company offers
z cents royalty, mine run. They
agree to pay landowners SO cents
per acre rental per month, after 4
years, until they begin taking out
coal from under each mans land.
This rental will be deducted from
each mans royalty as they come to
him.
BY this clause the landowner
would realize something out of his
lease before the company began TAX
ing coal from his land. The company
proposes to begin prospecting within
80 days from the completion OF the
block, to complete prospecting with
in t21 months and to begin perma-
nent developments within 2 years.
At first one or two parties in the
block objected to some of these terms
and nothing was done for some time
and it began to look as though it
would fail, but those in favor of leas-
ing have been making converts
among the DIRECTORS and the chance
now appears better than ever that
the block will be secured.
Mr.. j. A. Evans, the Company's
representative, was here day or
two last week again comforting with
the landowners and the first ac-
tual steps were taken in leasing.
ready to sign up, and the block
of the present year.
The Evans people are strong tinan-
cially and amply abe to make good
any contract into which they may
enter. They are practical opera
tors, operating mines at Smoky Hol-
low, Iowa; Novinger, Connelsville,
and other points in Missouri. They
are not coming with view of specu-
lation, but are here for the purpose
of opening and operating the mine.
The location of another strong
company near town would be OF in
estimable value to the city and sur
rounding country for dozen miles.
1t would double our mining popula-
ton thus furnishing better market
for farm products and thus increase
the price of land. With two such
powerful allies GAINESVILLE could Sc
cure railroad extension, induce fac
tories and other business enterprises
to locate here, and all in all, make
her the best town in the county
