Cannon Ball Trail to Extend to Des
MOineS,

The officers of the Cannon Ball
Trail expect to make a tour of in
spection covering the country from
Leon to Des Moines the latter part
of this week in an effort to locate
a. better trail from Leon to Des
Moines, than the one over the Inter-
State which runs from Leon through
Osceola and Indianola, there being
a mighty tough piece of road be-
tween Osceola and Indianola. The
boosters of Garden Grove insist
that there is splendid road from
Leon to Des Moines via Garden
Grove and other towns which are
not on any trail and they propose
to show the officers of the Cannon
Ball that the proper thing to do Is to
extend the Cannon Ball from Leon
to Des MOines over road which will
be fixed up in fine shape and which
would prove the popular route for
tourists travelling from Leon to Des
Moines. If this can be done, it will
make great trail of the Cannon
Ball which now extends from Leon
to Quincy, Illinois, on the east and
to Kansas City on the southwest,
with the northern terminus at Des
Moines where connections can be
made with number of good trails.
The inspection committee will make
thorough investigation of the pro-
posed new trail and if found feasible,
it will be located and marked.

Leon Electric Co. to Furnish Garden
Grove with Electric Lights.

At a special election held at Gar
den Grove last Friday, the PROPOSE
tion to grant franchise to the Leon
Electric Co., carried by big major
ity, the vote being "a for and only
IA against the proposition. The
town of Garden Grove is to be con-
graduated on getting their lights
from the Leon Electric Co., for they
will have the best lights in southern
Iowa, and can secure the electric
current from Leon cheaper than
they can operate a plant themselves.
The work of installing the lights at
Garden Grove will commence in the
near future. Humeston, which is
only six miles from Garden Grove
and which voted down a proposition
to issue bonds to erect an electric
light plant few months ago, is also
anxious to have the Leon Electric
Co., extend their lines on to Humes-
ton from Garden Grove, and spec
ial election is to be called at once to
vote on granting them franchise.
