Prosperity Not Poverty is KEYNOTE
or Williams ADDRESS to Sheepn1eHl

philanthopist In Iowa in the way ~
buying out the larger farms ana cut
ting them up into small patches Ior]
the truck farmer.
"Now there are probably one or tWoI
serious obstacles to the carrying out
of this utopian program. The nrs'
will be the owner, who may have
something to say about the matter Of
selling out. The second will be to-
find sufficient local market for all the
truck that might be produced IN tne
state. In the language OF the street
gamins feel like saying, .Ah, come
off, to all these apologies for condls
ton that needs no apology.
'Towa's farming interests and
Iowa's farmers are all right. The
division of the larger farms into
smaller ones, will come, only as cor
ditions and the wants of the local
markets demand it. Let the loWa3
farmer alone He is coming lott
faster than the cities OF the state areN
coming. There are no vacant farms
no deserted houses. The Iowa farm is
producing more acres Of grain and
more grain to the acre than it ever did
in the history of our commonwealth
What we need at present are largery
Iowa cities and more home consumers
for the products of the farm. Our
commercial association, our booster
clubs and our politicians instead OF
worrying themselves sick over small
shrinkage in the number OF IoWa,s
farmers would better devote all their
energies toward building up larger
home markets for his products.
what we need is fair adjustment
of freight rates, that will put into our
state more institutions such as the
Morrell Packing company Of Ottumwa
to the end that the Iowa consumer
will not be compelled to pay the Chi
cago freight rate on our cattle, ouS
hogs and our sheep and returI%
freight on our beef, our pork and ouri
mutton We need shoe factories, that
our hides and pelts will not pay freight
to Massachusetts and our boots and
shoes and harness leather return
freight to the west We have the raw
materials, what we need are tn
factories. There is no good reasol
why we should longer pay tribute, by3
way of double freight, toward thes
building up Of the large popular cen
tiers of the east. : Let them rather de-
vote their entire energies towarc$
building large cities and securing
more factories, that will employ morei
citizens who will demand and conf
sumo more of the products Of thel
farm and the division of the larger
farm will adjust itself to the changed
conditions.
What is the matter with Iowa? (In
rural sense). Nothing. She's all
right. What is the matter with the
Iowa farmer? Nothing. He's all right
What is the matter with 1owa's WOO
growers? Nothing. They're all rightly
And we welcome them to our city and
commercial rooms.

Negro Miner With Broken Back Thus
Far Withctands His Awful
injury.
Lying encased in his plaster of paris
cast in the mems ward at the hospital,
Bud Elliott, the negro miner who sus
tanned broken back in No. 5 mine at
Rutledge, November 80, appears to bat
tie heroically for recovery. Not with
standing the serious character Of his
injury and the tax upon his depleted
strength oa-sed by the operation OF
Monday afternoon, the sturdy miner
seems to hold his own and will not
give up in the fight for life that bears
such odds against him. The physicians
and hospital attendants feel more hope
for him now than at first and say that
he has fighting chance for recovery.

PICKED AN ODD NAME.
An Authors Long Search and Sub
sequent Surprise.

An Authors Long Search and SUBJ
sequent Surprise.
When Albion ". Tourgee wrote "A
Fools Errand" he named one OF his
cading characters Theron Pardee An
early copy Of the book fell into the
hands Of the Rev. Luther Pardee. an
Episcopal clergyman of Chicago. whose
father was named Thereon Pardee-
The name is such an unusual cOmbina-
ton that il amaZement the rector
showed the book to his father. and
they were both puzzled by the coinct-
dence. They decided to write Judge
Tourgee and ask him what had led him
TO use the name. He replied. In equal
aulaZenlent, that be had not supposed
there was such man living as The
ron Partlee. Then he stated that he
had prolonged search for suitable
name for the character Of his story
one that would express just what he
imagined this character to be. In the
course Of the hunt an old copy OF the
curriculum Of Union college had fallen
into his hands. 1t was dated 1925, or
something as far back. and among the
names Of the students was one Thereon
Pardee. The judge said it had i'm
pressed him as being one OF the rich
est. most solid and most satisfying
names he ever had heard. so he decid-
ed to adopt it for his character. The
curriculum was so old that he had no
hesitation in using the name. and he
was astonislled to learn that the right
flu owner Of it was living. His expla-
nation was accepted and the resulting
acquaintance was pleasing all around.

Ancient Spectacle Makers.

The ancient Guild of Spectacle Max
ars is numerically one Of the strongest
London companies. Its charter dates
from the year 1929 and. though the ex-
act date Of its origin IS lost. there IS
ample evidence that the calling Of
spectacle maker was extensively fol-
lowed at a very early date. An old
book Of 1868 mentions the spectacle
makers among other traders. and the
biography Of Carlo Zeno. an illustrious
Venetian. who died in 1913. mentions
that even at the age of eighty -four he
needed no artificial aids to his sight
So presumably spectacles We're COM
mon in Italy FIVE centuries ago.-Lon-
don Telegraph.

FIRE ENEMY OF
Man FOR AGES

Fire has ever been one of the most
enemies Of civilized man.
Wherever he has erected cities and
gathered in great assemblies flames
have menaced his life.
The most disastrous fires of history
occurred in the times before adequate
means of fire protection were known.
Then fire, once started, swept every
thing before it, and was arrested only
when it burned itself out.
London was destroyed by fire twice.
in 1912 a fire began on the Southwark
side of London bridge, extended to the
other side and hemmed in crowd OF
citizens. About 5000 were burned or
drowned in their efforts to escape.
1920 Houses are Burned.
In 1856 London was visited by what
was known as the great fire. The
ruined area covered 436 acres, extend
ing from the Tower to the Temple
church and from the northeast gate to
Holborn bridge This fire originated in
a bakers shop in Pudding Lane, be-
hind Monument yard, and destroyed in
four days eighty-nine churches, in
GLIDING st. Paul's, the city gates, the
Royal Exchange, the custom house.
Guildhall and many other public build
ings. besides 1920 houses. Thousands
persisted.
In the first conflagration which Wis
tied Constantinople in 1779, 1000 per-
sons persisted and square miles Of
handsome buildings were laid in
ruins.
Theater Fires XIII Many.
Fires in theaters and other public
assembly halls have, Of late years, re-
suited in the greatest loss of life. In
1881, when the Ring theater in Vienna
and Lehmann's theater in st. Peters
burg we're destroyed and 600 lives
were lost in each case, the civilized
world was shocked. Then in 1897 cameo
the Charity Bazaar fire in Paris which
cost 800 lives.
The Iroquois theater fire follOweIa
and in loss Of life it was more costly
than any disaster since, with the sim
gle exception # the burning Of SAGE
Francisco. pr
America Leads in Losses. be
Hamburg, Germany, suffered diee
astrous fire in 1912, when millions Oh
dollars worth OF property were des->
troyed and 100 lives were lost; but Of
late years the most disastrous fires OF
! the world have occurred in. America,
! where Chicago, San Francisco, Boston,
New York, Portland. Pittsburg, Wash
ington and Albany have suffered heavy
losses at some time in their history
Boston was visited by a disastrous
| fire on Nov. 9, 1872, which entailed a
loss of s73,591,5OO and destroyed much
of the city.
| Pittsburg Suffers.
Pittsburg lost 1000 buildings valued
at $6.0O0,O00, in 1915; San Francisco
in 1851 experienced two fires, which,
destroyed between them 5000 build
ings at loss of $6,50O,000
! This was the heaviest loss San Fran
cisco had to bear until the earthquake
and fire of 1905 when the city was des-,
troyed and 1000 lives lost in the ruins.
Seattle and Spokane Wash, suf.i
fered fire losses of $4,000 each inl
1889.

OUT
WITHSTATEMENT
FREE METHODIST CHURCH OFF,
GALS EXPLAIN CAMP MEET
ING ACTION TO PUBLIC.

TIE circulation of conflicting reports
as to the action taken recently in the
conference held between the CONNER
cial association and the committee OF
the Free Methodist church, has
brought out the correct statement OF
the church men in the following which
names Eldon the place of holding the
meeting:
"The camp meeting committee OF
the Fairfield district of the Free Meth
cdist church met in the Commercial
association rooms at Ottumwa. De-
cember Fl and by unanimous vote de-
cided to accept the Eldon proposition
to hold the next camp meeting on the
fair grounds in that city. The meet
ing will commence Wednesday, Aug
ust 9 and close on Sunday night, Aug
ust 20, 1911.
In addition to the above report we
will say that the Commercial associa-
ton of Ottumwa made a very generous
offer but the committee did not think
any of the sites in that place were at
present suitable for camp meeting.
"The Commercial club and the
Chautauqua association of Fairfield
very kindly offered us the free use OF
their grounds and pay the expense of
policing the same during the meeting
This offer had to be declined as the
camp meeting would have had to been
held after the Chautauqua meeting,
which would make too late date.
&C. A. Anderson, Chairman OF
Committee.
IL. Mendenhall, Secretary"

BLEACHED FLOUR VERDICTs
Jury Had Listened to Testimony I'VE
Four Weeks.

Kansas City. Mo.-"We, the jury,
find that the flour seized was adul'
terated.
I'VE, the jury, find that the flour
seized was misbranded."
These two verdicts were returned
In the federal court here today by the
Jury that for more than five weeks had
listened to testimony for and against
the charge of the government that G25
sacks of flour, bleached and sold by
the Lexington Mill & Elevator Com
pany of Lexington, Neb., and seized
bv the government while in the pos
session of the purchaser, a grocer at
Castle, Mo-, were a~dulterated and
m~isbranded. The government had
charged that the flour was adulterat'
ed, in that it was bleached by the Al
SOD process, which makes use of nj
trogen peroxide In bleaching -four.
Misbranling was charged in that the
flour seized was labeled a fancy pat.
ent and the government contended it
was not a fancy patent because it was
not made from a first grade hard win
ter wheat.
