MASON CITY TO GET PLANT.
Motor Company Part of New Organi-
Zation, Five Million Dollar
Company.

Mason City, Ia, Dec. 9.-At mid
night last night was concluded the
deal whereby the Colby Motor Co.
of this city, becomes a part Of the
$5,000,000 organization, consolidat-
ing as it has with the Cooperative
Farm Machinery Co. of Davenport.
Since Monday ]. E. Burmeister, H.
S. Murphy, S. N. Hoover and M. N.
Smith, representative men of Chica-
go and Davenport have been here
completing details and they have
been, happily for this city, consum-
mated. The Colby Motor Co. has
been building large buildings at its
plant which was established here a
little over year ago. Orders were
coming so rapidly and business was
piling up so that it was necessary to
have increased facilities right away,
and when the plans were laid be-
fore these gentlemen they were
quickly Joined in the great work.
This will mean another great manu-
featuring industry for this city,
equaling almost in extent, either of
the cement industries.

The Poultry Yard,

Winter eggs and exercise go to-
gether.
Do not neglect the laying hens
exercise.
Judge not hen by her beauty,
but by the way she does her duty.
You may feed all the food your
hens can possibly use, but if you are
short of grit The results will not be
satisfactory.
1t is not good for hens to dust in
coal or wood ashes only, some folks
claim, but we find that a few ashes
tighten up the dirt.
Noon is good time to supply the
stock with some green stuff, such
as cabbages or roots of any kind.
The latter can be cut in half, and
the hens will then pick them to
pieces.

Drafts in the chickens home are
more dangerous when the fowls are
quiet on the roost than when they
are stirring around during the day;
but cold air current sweeping
through the house is a bad thing
at any time.
AS the cold winds come in the
fall, it is noticed that the fiocks do
not take so wide a range as they
did in milder weather, but, instead,
congregate in the corn fields and
along the stone fences in the pasture,
where they can get the benefit of the
warm sun, and at the same time be

Two Cent Money Orders.

A firm in Elgin, ILL.,, recently de-
vised an advertising scheme in which
postal money orders played a part
very satisfactory to the advertisers,
but somewhat upsetting to the pos
tai authorities.
The advertiser secured at the post
office 500 money orders for two cents
each, payable to as many individuals.
A form of letter was then prepared
which notified the reader that mas
much as his time was worth $4,000
a year, the inclosed money order was
to pay for the half minute that it
would take to read the inclosed cir
cular.
AS a result, practically everyone
who received a circular read it, but
very few of them cashed the money
orders, and in a short time the pos
tai authorities were in serious diff
culties. Every money order issued,
no matter for how small an amount,
must be entered on the books, and if
they are not redeemed in a certain
time the federal authorities must
know the reason why. Consequently
every order not cashed required an
investigation. AS a result each two
cent money order purchased by the
Elgin merchant represented about a
dollars worth of red tape.

Conductor Loses His Arm.

West Liberty, Ia, Dec. 11.-Matt
Archer, conductor on Rock Island
passenger No. 6, lost his right arm
here yesterday beneath the wheels
of an engine which pulled down on
him as he stood beside the train.
The accident happened before day.
light and Archer, deafened by the
noise of his engine, was unaware of
the approach of the other.
The accident was not seen by any
one, and the first knowledge of it
on the part of others was when
Archer knocked on the door of a
caboose of a freight standing in the
yards. The arm was mangled from
fingers to the shoulder. Archer was
taken to his home at Rock Island
and amputation at the shoulder was
made in the hospital there.

MARKET REPORT.
Weekly Market Letter From Our
Correspondent at Kansas
City.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Dec. IL.
About eleven thousand head of
stockers and feeders went to the
country from here last week, which
was the limit of the supply of that
kind. Prices averaged Is to %
cents higher last week than during
the previous week. Buyers complain
that few decent steers can be bought
under five dollars, bulk of the move
ment going at $500 to $3.50, best
feeders 1913. These prices are rs
to so cents higher than a year ago.
The prospects this week point to
larger receipts than last week, and
more stockers and feeders will be
available. Today fifteen thousand
cattle came in, including several
trains of Colorados. This was enough
to weaken the market on country
kinds a little, contrary to the usual
Monday situation. There is a good
demand for stock cows and heifers,
and firm prices rule. A fair quality
of stock cows can be secured around
1885, but if you want to pick out
a load for yourself they will cost
up to $3.50. Stock heifers bring
1855 to S4.25 and feeding bulls are
worth $3.50 to $500. The feature
of the general market this week will
be the offerings of Christmas cattle,
and the high prices paid for same
Some yearlings sold here today at
$9.15, and heavy steers brought
$3.50. However, these were the
vanguard of the main offerings of
Christmas cattle, which will appear
tomorrow, Tuesday Fifty cars of
Oil Mill cattle from Oklahoma came
in today, and sold at $3.50 to $3.50,
weighing from $50 to 1850 pounds.
Middle class native steers sell at
1913 to 1925, native cows at 1915
to $500, top veals today $7.75.

Auto DESTROYED by Fire.

Mason City, Dec. 1.-Backfiring
while the engine of the family auto
was being started, the premises of
w. G. c. Bagley, cashier of the First
National bank, came near going up
in smoke. The oil in the machine,
which was in the private garage,
caught fire and the flames spread
through the machinery. The result
was a handsome $4,000 auto prac-
tically ruined, as the water thrown
on lit by the fire department cooled
the machinery so rapidly that they
are beyond repair. The garage was
damaged.

PRODUCTION of the hopper method.
The old fashioned way of preparing
and mixing a wet mash is done away
with, on account of its tedious and
needless expense of time and labor.
The hopper is filled with a variety of
ground grains, and placed where it
is accessible to the fowls at all times.
With this arrangement the hens need
never go to roost without sufficient
