Sixty Acres 81 FarIa Machinery.

The current issue of The Iowa Home.
stead devotes considerable space to a
discussion Of agricultural implements
and in the course Of the article brings
out the statement that the late Iowa
State Fair established record with
sixty acres Of farm machinery on ex-
hibition. II Also presents other points
OF interest in Connection with the subject
of agricultural implements. Among
these Is the fact that sixty thousand
workmen are engaged in factories de-
voted exclusively to the production Of
farm machinery and that the value Of
their output reached close on to
$50, OOO, 10000. This article is right in
line with the many interesting ones
that appear in the columns Of The
Homestead Every farmer reader Of
this paper should also be reader of
The Homestead. He can do so at a
very reasonable cost as we club our
paper and The Homestead together at
the low price Of d. 90 per year. Sample

Farewell Given to Pastor.

A former pastor of the M. E. church
of this city given unique farewell. The
Winterset Reporter of last week con-
tanned the following:
REV. A. A. Walburn preached his
farewell sermon at the NJ. E. church
last Sunday morning. The congrega-
ton was large. composed of his own
church members and many friends
and admirers from other denominations.
Mr.. Walburn spoke feelingly on the
severance Of the relations existing be-
tween the pastor and the people. The
breaking of ties which have formed
during three years pastorate, is no
small matter The evident feeling of
the congregation attested this fact. Mr..
Walburn goes to Corning and he takes
with him the heartiest well wishes, not
only of his own people but of the entire
community. The pastors of the city
arranged for a union service in the NJ.
Z. church Sunday evening as farewell
memorial to Mr.. Walburn. The services
were largely attended. The different
pastors each took a turn in saying the
many and well deserved good things
of their departing colleague. The
family left Tuesday for their new
home" re-

Besides the buyers there were lot Of

IS ARRESTED
Young Man Taking Orders For Chicago
Grocery Firm In Guthrie County
Placed Under Arrest.

Contending that the peddlers' county
license tax, provided for in the Iowa
statues, is contrary to the United States
constitution in that it conflicts with the
aDaa1ills = - gn0cesyS iirzn OF
Chicago, will make an attempt to have
the statute declared unconstitutional by
the courts.
Upon information sworn out Tuesday
morning, a. L. Adams, who had been
taking orders and delivering goods for
the firm In the northwestern part of
Guthrie county, was arrested and taken
to Guthrie Center. He was arraigned
before Justice'W. n. Hyzer and assess
ed the statutory penalty Of 800. and
fined go. Tia company represented
by Mr.. Adams has given notice that
the case will be appealed to the district
court, and if lost there carried on up to
the state supreme court, and il needed
from there to the United States sup
RENE court. The company recently
carried on similar litigation in the state
of New Mexico.
The statute complained Of as being
unconstitutional provides for county
license tax for all persons taking orders
for goods delivering the same outside
incorporated towns and cities. The
statute does not differentiate between
goods already in the state and those to
be ahipped in from other states. and it
is on this ground that the charge of un-
constitutionality is based.
