IN SERVICE IS YEARS.
Jasper County Farmer Has Faithful
Team of Long Ears Which
Served his Father.

Newton, Nov. 13.-On the farm of
Ernest Griebel, five miles northwest
of the city there works a team of
mules, of which Mr.. Griebel is very
proud and when talking of the super
ior qualities of the animals Mr.. Grie-
bel is wont to wax eloquent. The
animals, Mollie and Nat, are 33
years old-Mollie was born April IA,
1878, and Nat May 10 of the same
year. They were the property of
Jacob Griebel, father of the present
owner, and were kept by him until
death. For the past thirty years they
have done service in the corn field,
and are at present being used to haul
in corn by Charles Gearhart, who is
now working for Mr.. Gr'ebel. They
have also done fourteen seasons
threshing and have often worked the
old horse power thresber.
Although in physical form they
are typical mules, they are by no
means asinine in intellect. They are
gentle and domestic and despite
their old age they can jump any
fence on the farm. Judging from
the manner in which Mr. Griebel ex-
tolls their character, Nat and Mollie
are more to be sought than fine gold.

Turkeys Are Scarce.

Cedar Rapids, Nov. 13.-Citizens
of Cedar Rapids and vicinity who
have been wont to decorate the fes-
tive board on Thanksgiving day with
a large, juicy turkey may have to be
content this year with veal outlets
or pot roast. The turkey family
in this vicinity never was so small as
this year, and farmers say they do
not know Of anyone in this neigh bor-
hood who has gone into the turkey
raising business. The reason for the
unusual scarcity is thought to be a
new disease, inherited from the east
called the "blackhead." 1t is said
this disease kills the young fowls
faster than they can be Matched. The
farmers around Center Point usually
supply this territory with its supply
of Thanksgiving birds. but one man
who had to have number of tur-
keys for = banquet learned that Gen.
ter Point poultry fanciers were not
in the turkey business this year.

4 Sucker.

This is the popular puzzle over the
state just now: A banker going
home to dinner saw a $40 bill on
the curbstone. He picked it up, no
ticed the number, and went home to
dinner While at home his wife re-
marked that the butcher had sent q
bill amounting to $40. The only
money he had was the bill he had
just found, which he gave to her and
she paid the butcher. The butcher
paid it to a farmer for a calf, the
farmer to a merchant, who paid it
to a washerwoman, and she, owing
the banker a note for $40, went to
the bank and paid the note. The
banker recognized the bill as the orc
he had found, and which at the time
had paid $50 worth of debts. On
careful examination he found The bill
to be counterfeit. Now, what was
lost in the transaction, and by

The Situation i'm Iowa.

Cleveland, Ohio, Nov. 13.-"Much
significance is attached to the recent
election in Ohio in which practically
every county that went dry" three
years ago returned TO the wet"
column. Now that the election is
over the public is asking why it is
that the people gave up prohibition
in their counties after three years
trial. To a close student of the sit
uation, however, the reason is patent
enough. Three years ago the sa-
looms in Ohio We're running under
what is known as the wide open
policy. They paid little attention to
the law and the people decided to
do away with them. They did so,
only to find that they had jumped
from the frying pan into the fire. In
place of the saloon came the blind
tiger, the hole in the wall, the speak
easy, and all of these dens of vice
that come when the regulated saloon
goes. Three years of this kind of
business was enough for the people
and they decided for the saloon
again. The saloon, but under diff
ferent conditions. The men who run
them hereafter must know that they
must obey the law. If they do so
the liquor problem in Ohio is settled
if not it will be war TO the end"
