FORMER MUsCATlNE WOMAN

TIONs PROPERTY.

Muscatine, March 14.-That Miss
Mira Hershey Of Los Angeles, CAL, is
still interested deeply in Muscatine
has been evidenced by her latest be-
nevolence Four Muscatine societies
or organizations, now seeking funds
with which to carry on special i'm
provements have been assisted by
donations Of a considerable amount.
One square block of residence proper
ty located between Ninth and Tenth
streets and Oak and Spring streets
has been decided to the Muscatine
organizations, the Y. w. G. A., the
First Congregational church, the First
Methodist and the st. Matthias Cath
Ollie church. each receiving a deed for
a fourth interest in the property which
is valued at about $4,000.
The receipt Of the deeds was a
surprise to those receiving them. for
while Miss Hershey had been asked
to assist in the various institutions
it was not contemplated that any
property deed would be executed in
their favor. The property is that
which is elevated somewhat and has
been known for years as Ogilvie's
Hill. Two houses which are occupied
are now located in the block. ~.
1t is understood that the German
Alliance has also been assisted but
definite information to this effect
has not been received by those prom
inent in the society as yet.

THE APPLE BUDS
ARE ALL RIGHT
FRUIT GROWER IN SOUTHWEST
i IOWA SAYS FRUIT PROSPECTS
GOOD.

Glenwood, March 14.-According to
J. w. Murphy, one of the best known
fruit growers in southwest Iowa. who
has been making an investigation OF
apple trees the condition of these fruit
trees is excellent at this time. He be.
lieves that with reasonably good
weather from now until the danger of
frost is past there will be an excellent
prospect for a big crop Of aples. He
states that the buds are not injured
thus far, and that what we need now
is weather cool enough to prevent the
trees blossoming too early. He has
been pruning apple trees for the past
three weeks and therefore speaks from
an intimate knowledge of the situation.
In an interview he said:
For the benefit of the fruit growers
of this part of the state, ] want to say
that have been pruning apple trees
for the past three weeks and on close
observation l find the fruit buds to be
in fine condition and apparently no
further advanced than they were last
fall when they went into winter;
