II Is estimated that two hundred thou

battle throughout the day. They saw
only the ruins OF the garage, for. soon
after the explosion, flames broke out and
destroyed the structure.
According to statement made BY
Paul GuiChard. brother of the superin-

of Bonnet at the bandits last stand In
the garage. but as the wounds were nu-
merous. It is not known which caused
the end.

special editions hourly throughout the

IMPORT OF LUxURiES.

Luxurtes imported into the United
States during the fiscal year which ends
next month, will exceed $200,000,000 in

champagne and other wines, tobacco
and manufactures thereof, ostrich
feathers, artificial flowers, toys, per-
fumeries and cosmetics, jewelry,
manufacturers Of gold and stver, and
numerous others of this general
character. 10.
In many Of these articles, especially
the more important ones, the imports
Of the fiscal year 1912 will exceed in
value those Of any earlier year. Art
works, for example, show for the nine
months ending with March, a total
exceeding by so per cent the highest
record Of any earlier year, and will
approximate $40,000,00O. in value for
the full fiscal year, as against $22,500,-
900 in 1911 and s21 ,00O,0 900 in 1910

nine months figures thus far received
by the department show for diamonds
$30,000,000, indicating for the full
year total of about $41,000.00O, thus
exceeding the record of any earlier

The Cedar Rapids Gazette has just
published a special edition described
as an illustrated review of the
Cedar Rapids of 1872" which is all
that its name implies. No people In
Iowa are prouder Of their city than
the people of Cedar Rapids. And that
spirit, no debut, has had more to do
with Cedar Rapids growth and
development than any material factors
that entered into the situation. One
paragraph in an editorial announce
ment Of the edition gives an idea of
the Cedar Rapids spirit. It says: 1--WE
no sooner build Montrose hotel
and an Allison hotel than we begin
thinking about another. We no sooner
erect an eight story Security bank
building than we more than double the
size Of the Cedar Rapids Savings
bank structure and plan for fine new
home for the American Trust and Saw
ings bank. We build modern structures
like the Armstrong and Severa build
tngs, and the Denecke store, and then
start the Mullin building and the
Fidelity block This is the kind of
spirit that builds cities. Cedar Rapids

PLANTING CORN.

Marshalltown Times Republican:
The corn planters will be busy this
week Those who drive on the high
ways will pass fields striped with the
parallel rows left by the planter
wheels and hear the fusillade Of check
rowers. And some of these will re-
call earlier days, ere the check-rower
made its appearance. For be it
known both corn planter and check
rover are modern inventions.
Some of these will bark back to the
youth of forty years ago, who dropped
corn when they preferred fishing for
bullheads In those ancient and hon.
orable days the field marker" an
exaggerated stoneboat with two or
four runners, followed the drag as
the next step in the somewhat COM
plicated process of corn planting 1t
was drawn by team and skillful driv-

ing between a line of flags" set one
at each end and one in the middle Of
the field, kept the furrowed rows
made by the marker runners straight
from end to end. To drive straight
was an accomplishment. When the
field had been marked one way it was
checked" by crossing it with the
marker and then was ready for the
drcppers. Boys usually dropped .ne
corn from pals and baskets, putting
mot more than five and not less than
three" kernels in check" One
man with a hoe could usually cover
for two boys, the shining hoe flash
ing close to bare heels having a de
cidedly stimulating effect on the &C
tivity of the troopers.
That is the way grandfather planted
his corn. He plowed it with q
double shovel pillow and one horse
making round" to each row. He
husked it five men to a wagon, or two
men and a boy, who husked the down
row." and he insisted on removal OF
each ribbon" and all the silk.
Then came genius who invented
single hand planters. There were
contraptions with an iron point which
thrust into the soil and a recpetacle
from which the seed was discharged
by means of a grip lever. This elm
mated the coverer and made planting
mans work. Then some observing
or lazy person conceived the idea OF
a double planter, which consisted OF
two single planters set row apart
From this the evolution to the horse

important factor in the general group
of "luxuries," or articles of voluntary
use, imported. They will amount in
value in the current year to about $44,-
100000. The growth in the importa-
ton of this great group has been very
rapid, the total of 1902, decade ago,
having been less than $30,000,OOO and
the increase in the decade fully so per
cent. r.
This report seems to bear on the
statement of observers that many Of
the things formerly classed as
"luxuries" have been accepted as
necessities by the people of this
country. The fact the importations
have increased during period of
business slackness is an evidence that
we as a people have not cut down on
our "luxuries."
