Des Moines, May There are some
are disposed to make trouble over the
improvements made for them at their
state medical school at the state uni
versity, and at the annual session of
their society this week they will give
the matter an airing.
1t seems that the board Of education
at recent meeting directed the con-
solidation Of that part Of the medical
college work Of the allopath and
homeopath schools which is identical
in character. The surgery, for in
stance, is the same in both and there
seemed to be no reason why the stu
dents of the two schools might not get
along with one set of instructors in
the art Of cutting and slashing.
President Bowman, who visited the
city few days ago said in regard to
this:
"The consolidation was for the pur-
pose of Strengthening the two schools
The Homeopath SCHOOL, s comparatively
small and it was impossible to main
tain a complete corps of instructors
for the few who attend. So it was
work of the two schools, so far as it
is Identical, ard thus to give students
of both kinds the advantage of COM
plete faculty Some of the doctors Of
the Homeopath school are objecting
10 tho .,os.Sc.,: e ton hnt others are ap-
proving and say that it means very
much better advantages for their stu
dents"
At the meeting of the Hahne-
mann society here this week this mat
ter will be considered and it is prob
able the board Of education will be
called on the carpet for what 1t has
done
Persons who think state officers 90
not earn what they get should try 1t
out for time. Secretary of State Hay
ward started in yesterday to writing
his signature 5000 times, once on
each notarial certificate or comnls-
sioy, made out. These also have the
governors signature. About sOo OIL
these have already been made out ana

has each yeGf signed his name ABOUT
5000 times to corporation certihcates'
hut may this year have the signature
placed on the certificates by printing
Iowa horse breeders are insisting up
on a better class Of horses than in an!
other state Of this section. The 1act
has been disclosed in an official man
ner so that there can be no error. sec
rotary Corey, Of the department OF
agriculture, is just completing the reg
istration Of breeding animals under a
new law, this being the first complete
reeistra ton for Iowa. There nave been
registered lao grade stations and A.
699 pure bred stations, showing that
T3 per cent are pure bred. There
have been registered thirty-seven pure
bred jacks and 3s3 grades.
In view Of the fact that this promises
to be a great convention year no re-
duced rates TO conventions are to De
granted by the railroads. The an
nual encampment of the Iowa depart
ment c. A r. at Mason City will be
held without any special rates and 1t
is probable there will be no round trip
rates to any gatherings of any kind.
There will be no reduction in rates TO
the national conventions.
The number Of insurance companies
doing business in Iowa is constantly on
the increase and Iowa, despite that
the insurance interests are frantically
trying to secure repeal Of some of the
Iowa laws. is regarded as fine field

the New England Casualty Company.
Boston, all have applications in for
right to do business in this state at

has been keeping in touch with own
ers Of orchards in Iowa who are pre-

pared to send to all such persons
warning of approaching cold weather.
Happily there has been thus far no
occasion for warning the orchardists
and it is now regarded as pretty GER
