possibilities and resources; bringing to
light the fact that to the intelligent
and capable business women as well as
to the men, did Iowa owe much Of her
thrift and popularity. A general
informal discussion followed upon this
program, and plans were suggested to
perfect an organization of Cresco's
progressive business men. A COM
mittee composed of C. w. Reed, ]. C.
Webster, Frank Huber, A. L. Peter
son, w. H. Tillson, J. J. Sobolik and

were to meet Monday night to formu-
late plans for permanent organiza-

Business Men Banquet.

The banquet given for the Cresco
business men on last Friday evening
was highly successful in every way.
A. F. Conrad, of the Hotel Strother.
had the menu in charge, and the result
was a delicious, perfectly served six
course banquet, which would have done
credit to any city caterer. The ban
quet table, which was spread in Wood
men hall, was beautifully decorated
with flowers and greens, and during
the progress of the banquet, the guests
were entertained by choice selections
by the Fiske harp orchestra. The
Misses Florence Fields, Genevieve
Glass, Elsie Woellstein, Kathryn Can
field. Ruth Thayer, Eta Stern, Maggie
Zilz and Eva Mckee under the super
vision of Mrs. Slonaker very daintily
served the party who numbered abort
one hundred of Cresco's representative
business and professional men.
After the banquet was served, a
IdtuSI InAOt"oI pAOH olAi VI SOoSSo was
enjoyed, C. ". Reed acting as toast
master. j. C. Webster gave a very
interesting talk; the thought he brought
out being the necessity of Cresco busi-
ness men getting together in closer
and more understanding relation to
each other. o. J. McHugh advocated
the booster spirit in his advice to buy
Cresco goods, Cresco manufactured
goods if possible, if not, at least to Re
loyal to the home merchant. L. P.
Barth gave an insight into the census
subject, showing that the decrease in
Iowa's population was mainly in the
rural communities. holding that the
manufacturing centers were steadily
on the increase. E. p. Farnsworth
enlarged upon the influences of the
booster movement, not only as confined
to city organization but: as to a
neighborhood organization as well.

Property Values Raised in State.

Property Values Raised in State.
Des Moines, Ia, July 26.-Special:
For the year 1911 the owners Of rail-
road property in Iowa will pay taxes
on taxable valuation Of their prop
erty 3.2 higher than tor 1910; and the
owners of farm lands in Iowa will pay
taxes on,a taxable valuation of their
property higher by over IA per cent.
than in the previous year.
As a result of this, the total of tax
able values in Iowa, on which state,
school, county. road and all other
taxes are levied, will be about $751;
100000. The aggregate of all classes
of property-taxable values only-was
$693, SAG, 900. The actual values are of
course fonr times as much.
Upon the assessment as given the
3. 3 mills state tax levy will produce
for the state about 81, 4s3, 600. This is
near enough to the two and a half
million needed for state purposes.
The increase in taxable valuation is
mainly on farm lands. OF the $59,-
Oe0, 600 increase of valuation on lands,
town lots, personal property and rail-
roads, the increased assessment on the
latter is but little over two million.
The equalization Of farm lands
affects Howard and contiguous
counties as follows; the valuations
given being those returned by the
county assessors:

the two women charged with furnishing
and also for the Demars woman, who
was held b. the States attorney as G
witness in the Green case when it come.
up in county court.
Mr.. Enrisht objected to the holding
OF the Demars woman by the states at
torney on the ground that she was II

lewdness, which case had been no
pressed. and also on the ground that thu
woman had said that she had never seef

be held went into effect recently. BY it

Mr.. Enright, however. argued that tn

before the States attorney requested tn
court to have her held in the Gree
case.
The court. however. ruled that tn
