FARMS ARE FEWER
Decrease in Number Of Farmers
and in Farm Acreage
Shown in Iowa by the Thir-
teenth Decennial Census.
VALUE OF FARM LAND
Has More Than Doubled in Past
Ten Years.
Including Improvements the
Gain Is 117.3 Per Cent.
7ALUE OF FARM LAND

Washington, Nov. 1.-During the last
decade Iowa has shown material de-
c eases in total humber of its farms,
farmers and the extent of farm acre
age. but these losses are over shadow
ed by the enormous increases in the
value of farm land, implements and
buildings and the expenditures for farm
labor. These facts are set forth in a
statement issued today by the census
bureau regarding Iowa's agricultural
statistics derived from the recent CEN
sus of agriculture as a part of the
thirteenth decenntal census.
From 1900 to 19a0 the total value of
Iowa farm lan1 rose from 81, ,256, 1852, 900
to $2,799, ,025000 an increase of 81, ,542, ,273-
600, or 1927 percent; the value of all
farms, including that of their buildings
increased from 1497, ,555,000 to 3,253, ,719-
900 a gain of 1855. .164 900 or 117.3 per-
cent and the value of the building alone
rose from $240 S0Ss000 to $454, ,694 900, an
increase of $213, ,S91, ,000 or SS.S percent.
The value of farm implements and ma
chinery rose FROM $57 961, 900 to 95,273, ,0e0
gain of S37 .312, 900, or 64.4 percent; and
expenditures for labor from $16, ,376. 600
to $24, 1872, ,000 an increase of $S,356, 900
or 81 percent.

The farm acreage reported in 1910 is
80 600 as compared with 81 $4,000 in
1900. a decrease Of $50, 900 acres or 1.9
per, cent. This decrease in the opinion
of the census bureau probably repre-
sents a less perfect enumeration of land
in the several townships owned by people
residing in other townships due to the
change in the census date from June L
to April Is.
Much of this land is in pastures and
meadows and int%nded for lease but at
the date of the enumeration in April it
had not been leased for 1910 and was
therefore, unoccppied and unreported.

FIVE ARE LIABLE.
Judge Monroe Ge:s 81, 900 Yer.
dict in Damage Suit.
Jury Decides All We're to Blame
Regarding Wrecked Car.

After two hours deIiberation, the
jury in the Monroe automobile damage
suit today, returned a verdict for
Judge Lee Monroe for $1,000. None
of the five defendants was released
from liability and the judgment will
hold against Phillip Billiard, George
Rutter, chauffeur, A. G. Longren and
H. H. Potter, proprietorS of the gar
age, and Clarence Cole, night man at
the garage. The amount naturally
would be divided among the defen-
dantS at $500 each, but anyone of the
five is liza BILE
There was disposition on the part
of the attorneys for the defense to
shift the blame to Rutter who it was
shown had violated orders by taking
out the car. 1t also was attempted to
throw the blame on the garage people
for violating Monroes orders. This
garage men furnished the evidence
that Cole had attempted to- prevent
Rutter taking the car.
The jury apparently agreed that all
were equally to blame, and decided
that the owner of an automobile has
some property rights even though he
leave his machine in a garage. The
jury in the case was composed of J. R.
Zimmerman, w. W. Gillespie, W. B.
Heron, M. Jack, ]. G. Cooper, T. L.

DIGS UP OLD TREATY.
1t Will Permit Italians to Conduct
Moving Picture Shows.

New York, Nov. IAN international
treaty, negotiated between Italy and
the United States forty years ago, has
been resurrected here by the Italian
consul general for the purpose of keep
ing open a hundred moving picture
theaters owned by italian residents of
the East side.
The last session of the state legisla-
ture passed a law restricting moving
picture licenses to American citizens.
AS a result, about 100 Italians were
notified that they would have to close
up their places of business. The Ital-
ians at once complained to the Italian
consul general at New York. He
found that the treaty of 1871 between
the two countries gave to all Italian
subjects in this country the same rights
to personal property as American citi-
zens. This, he claimed, invalidated the
new law so far as it pertained to Ital-
ians. His claim has just received the
official o. K. of the city's legal ex-
merits

today. One half the membership of the
house of representatives and one-half
the membership of the senate will be

There was no disorder reported dur

general election of 1904 in which Presi-

James L. Davenport is the present
commissioner of pensions. He advanced
to the position upon the retirement of
VeSpaSian Warner, of Illinois, about a
year ago. Should Senator Warner ac-

President Roosevelt once considered
Major Warner the most logical man in
the country for the commissionership.
He practically offered him the position
upon the retireInent of Eugene Ware
of Kansas. WheIy it became known that
Major Warner WOULD not accept the ap .
pointment, it was offered to Col. Ves-
pasian Warner. Before Colonel War
