60 on Maud" said Mr.. Lafferty to
his horse, and in few minutes more
we were at his stone quarry, where
large force OF men are getting out
about thirty car loads of stone to he
fused in the new college building at
Fairfield. Mr.. Lafferty Is in commun.
ication with officials of the Iowa Cen
trail now for switch to his plant. If
this is built he will put in stone
crushers and start one of the biggest
industries of 1.-The many scattered
along the river The. demand for
crushed stone in concrete work Is
Eaway ahead of the supply and il
things go right. Eddyyills VIII soon
be furnishing all central Iowa with
lernshed stone and sand for construc.
tion purposes.
And speaking about sand brings
1.-The Roustabout back to Captain kel-
Ter. Mr.. Keller did not win his title
on the bloody field of battle, but just
now he is Eddyville's captain of in
dustry, and it would take big hust-
| Ter to fill his shoes. He is not con
| tent with one boat, as most men are,
but before another ten days go by
he is going to have feet of five boats.
| His chief business is, of course, his
traffic in sand, but his enterprise also
includes q large machine shop and
planning mill. and a passenger business
on the river His flagship, the City
of Eddyville," is being fitted up to
carry one hundred passengers and
when the rush for sand will permit
he expects to run excursions up and
down the river. At the present time
he has twenty-five people in his EN-,
ploy, and he hopes to be able to in
crease this force and keep il busy
the year round.
Then there's that oil business! Gee,
il sounded so good that the Roust-
about was almost tempted to trade
his return trip ticket TO OskalOOsa
for a cot, TO camp on the scene lest
any of the good news might get away
from him. Talk about the romance of
riches that hit Coal Oil Johnny" or
the opportunities that pulled the pill
lar out and let the milleniums down
on the farsighted investors at Beau-
mont, Texas, or Chanute, Kansas, or
Souther, California; none of these
could run fast enough to get singed
by the tail of the comet that has been
set in the Eddyville armament by j.
R. Davis. representing the Pure Oil
company, of St. Louis And strange
as it may seem, Mr.. Davis is not a
promoter. He has no stock for sale,
asks no bonus and does not want to
let anyone in on the ground floor"
in order to let the house fall on him
after he has squeezed all the milk out
of the cocoanut All he wants is an
option on the oil rights of 10000 to
Is 900 acres of land, SO that If he does
strike oil he will have enough land TO
enable him to get back the money he
expects to expend in prospecting. He
says he has been in the business for
over quarter of century, and if
the twenty.seven fields he has pros
pected he has found paving quaint
ties in all but two of them. To pro-
perly prospect the field his company
will sink at least five wells to a depth
of 1000 feet at an expense of $4,000
per well, or $4,000 in all.

KINDRED CHILDREN

Principal Watt Is the Chicago pio
