VWYHEN properly carried on
WV dairying is one of the most
profitable branches of live
stock farming. The work is
somewhat combining, but that is not a
serious objection as long as the profits
keep coming in. AS shown in article 3,
dairying removes less fertility from
the farm than any other branch of
live stock farming. Dairying is adapt
ed to many localities where general
farming cannot be carried on. Low,
wet land or that too billy to be culti-
waited can be profitably utilized as
pasture for dairy cows. There is lit
tie danger of the dairy business being
overdone. AS population increases, the
demand for dairy products becomes
greater. The dairy COW produces food
more economically than any other
class of farm animals.
In starting in the dairy business the
type of COW to select will depend
largely on conditions. For the gen
eral farm, where dairying is more or
less Of side issue. the dual purpose
cows have many advocates. They give
fair amount of milk and produce
calves that feed into satisfactory beef
animals. The worst trouble with dual
purpose cows is that they cannot be
bred true to type with any degree of
certainty. Once in awhile an extra

RIa Gain In insurance In 1eoe.

Bio Gain In Insurance In 1909.
There was an enormous increase in
the amount of insurance written In
Iowa during the year 1909, according
to statement made by Auditor
Bleakly in reference to the insurance
securities now on file in his depart
ment. He states that the increase of
these securities amounted to $4,000
900 for the past year. This, he says,
gives some idea of the growth OF the
business during the year, for in pro-
portion to the increase in the bust
ness written the amount Of securities
filed is increased.
His statement shows that at the be-
ginning Of the present year there
was on file in his Office insurance Sc
curities aggregating $37772,2O3.62,
while at the end of the year 1908
there was on file in his Office securi-
ties amounting to $32,S51,31033.
Auditor Bleakly predicts that if the
present ratio of increase in the insur-
ance written continues for two or
three years that at the end of that
period the securities on file in his Of
flee will reach the enormous sum of
$50,000,000. In no one year has there
ever been an increase of $5,000,000 In
the securities filed.

superintendent Thompson was re-
inforced by every superintendent and
expert within reaching distance of the
mine, and hundreds of miners stood
about the shaft begging for a chance
to join one of the rescue parties.
With the Cherry, ILL.,, disaster fresh
in their minds, frantic women and chill
dren surged against the ropes drawn
to keep them from the shaft and
begged the rescuers to bring back the
husbands and fathers. Some of the
women attempted to join the workers
below and had to be restrained by
force. AS each body was brought to
the surface, the women gathered
about it with shrieks and prayers.
Until the workings can be opened,
the cause of the explosion will remain
unknown. The officials declare that
safety lamps were used in every por-
| ton of the mine and that every pre-
caution was taken to prevent accident.
Coroner j. H. Guilfoil has taken
charge of the bodies and has ordered

GEOLOGICAL REPORT FIGURES

Des Moines, jan 29.-Iowa held her
position as first among all the states
in producing and using drain tile dur
ing the year 1908, according to Min
eral Production in Iowa." by S. w.
Boyer of Ames, which is a part OF
the Iowa geological report for that
year just sent to the state bindery by
State Printer Emory H. English. Dur
ing that year the output of sewer pipe
was doubled, and Mason City, with
eight completely equipped, monster
plants, became the greatest drain tile
manufacturing center in the world.
Webster county also came to the
front as drain tile producing center
during the same period. The gain in
the value of clay products for the en-
tire state was 10 per cent.
Mineral products Of all kinds for
the year had value Of s1S,090,447 as
compared with total of $17,627,925 in
1907. The total value of coal mined
in the state was $11,772,22S as COM
pared with $12,25S,o12 in 1907, and the
total value of clay products was 81
$7s,627 against $3,733,47e in 1907.
Since there was loss in the value OF
the coal produced, the total was due
to the opening Of the Northwestern
States Portland Cement company
plant at Mason City.
All prices were lower than In 1907
except that of coal, the price of which
averaged cents ton higher, break
ing the record for. high coal prices
since 1880. The loss in coal produc
ton was nearly 6 per cent, and thu
largest falling of was in Monroe
> county. Polk and Mahaska were thu
exceptions and showed gain In thu
amount of coal mined. The numbel
of men employed in the mines wa'
the largest and the number of day.
of work the lowest since 1897.
Because Of the manifold uses Of ce
ment introduced and generally prac
ticed, and because Of the movemen
for lettering the highways and road
of the state there was a decided in
crease in the sand and gravel produt
ton. The amount of gypsum produt
ed was less than in 1907, and its tota
value was $564,6SS. Pottery shove
little change from 1907, the total valu
being $1S,710, while the production c
raw clay was less than in the prevou
year, with value of only $3.50
Stone production fell off 1917 per cen
and the quarry output was worth onl
$569,775.
