rsEiowa News.

Council Bluffs, Aug. sl.-Twelve
thousand dollars for an apple crop
raised on fifty-five acres Of orchard is
the record made by the W. s. Keeline
orchard, three miles from the city linz
its of Council Bluffs. for the present
year.
The sale of the entire crop was eff
fected Tuesday, the purchasers being
the commission firm Of Palmer & Co.,
of Sioux City. The crop will be pick
ed and barrelad and delivered at what
is known as the chautauqua siding on
the Rock Island railway. which is To-
Gated a short distance from the ORCH
ard.
The price agreed upon was as fol-
lows: For Jonathan and Grimes Golden,
Geniton, $3.50, and for Ben Davis and
estimate that there will be in the
orchard about thirty-five carloads of
apples. There are 100 barrels in a car,
which would total $500 barrels, and
three bushels per barrel would make
total Of 1890 bushels.
Mr.. Keeline figures that about one
half of the trees in the orchard are
Jonathan The average price, therefore,
will be little better than 81 per bar
rel. At even money the sum to be paid
for the crop would be $4,000. but it
is figured that the estimate on the
amount is low and the price in excess
Of 81 per. barrel will swell the sum
for the total crop to more than $12.-
900. The orchard contains fifty-five
acres and this is equivalent to an acre
age yield of s21s per acre.
Orchard One Of Best.
The orchard is one of the best in the
state. It has been a paying PROPOSE
ton from the start. The crop this year
is, however, the best yet produced. Mr..
Keeline entered into an agreement with
Mr.. White, a graduate from the state
college at Amos. to divide the receipts
for the year, Mr.. White to prune the
trees, spray them. cultivate the ground
and gather and dispose of the fruit.
The results have been highly satisfac-
tory to both. The fruit is entirely free
of worms or other disease. 1t like
wise clings to the trees with great
tenacity. Mr.. Keeline believes this was
due largely to the use Of smudge pots
in the spring when cold snap came
which threatened to freeze the whole
crop out of existence. Oil was freely
burned and the temperature was kept
about ten degrees above the freezing
point. This gave the growing buds no
setback whatever and the result is a
splendid yield.
Professors Beach and Greene of the
state college have frequently visited
the orchard and they pronounce it one
Of the best in the entire country. 1t has
borne we'll from the start and its pros
pect for years to come seems good.

Eldora. Aug. 31.-Several years ago
two Eldora man were talking over the
conservation Of the water power rights
over the country and more particularly
the power that might be developed II
the Iowa river could be harnessed and
made to do effective work. Little
thought had these men then that In
a few years their dreams would come
to pass, but slch is the fact. A little
later a company was formed who
thought they saw in the water pass
ing over the dam at the old mill site
in this city sufficient power to light the
town of Eldora with electricity when
properly controlled. Accordingly they
an assured fact.
At recent meeting of the board OF
directors of The Park Dam Company,
the power company who are now de-
veloplhg this water power right ar
rangements We're made whereby the
dam, which was erected across the
Iowa river at this point last fall. will
be increased from a ten foot head to a

a power house twenty feet high has
been erected and Is ready for the in

pany now having control Of the water
power right has been incorporated and
Is comprised largely Of Eldora busi-
ness men who expect to ask for the
contract for lighting the city Of Eldora
as well as doing commercial lighting.
The new dam and power plant will
develop a continuous power Of 400
horse per hour. The new company has
also acquired the dam site at Steam
boat Rock, five miles north of here.
where q fifteen foot dam Is projected.
The two sites are within five miles Of
each other and will be used in con-
nection. furnishing power for Eldora,
Steamboat Rock and the neighboring
towns. The development Of the power
plant at Steamboat Rock will be push
ed to completion Immediately. Careful
observations Of the Iowa river at this
point have shown that under the low
water conditions existing In the last
two years, that 1t will furnish abund-
ant power for the plants as projected.
