orruMwA BOOSTERS PRAISED.

r The Abba Republican in its current
issue pays compliment to the Ottum-
wa boosters. "Ottumwa has done many
things the past two years" says the
Republican, "and should be given
credit for it. Most Of the credit is due
their commercial club, for they surely
have live bunch in membership. They
have men, and old men, too, who are
not afraid to spend their money when
they can see good ahead for the town.
The club consists Of 600 members, each
paying an annual due Of $40, and this
is considered not enough. At the pres
ent time the club has a number Of per-
sons interested In intensified farming.
This may sound odd to the farmer read
ers Of this paper, and they will con-
slider it in the light that man must
own 200 or 300 acres to be real farm
er. The Ottumwa club is endeavoring
to show that by intensified farming a
man cannot handle that large q tract
of land and do the, work successfully.
The Ottumwa boosters are just about
the best in the state and they have
taken the, proper. hold : on things to
make Ottumwa a better town and to
call the attention Of the people to that
fact"
