Yes, that's the question, why don't
you come in and have those Photos
taken? It's been quite while since
you had your picture taken, and we
are sure your friends and relatives
would appreciate one of the many
new styles and mounts we are

The practice Of having your picture taken
at frequent intervals is commendable one, as
in many cases it is the only link that keeps you
in touch with loved ones far away.
We have had snch marked success in the
past in taking Artistic and Natural Photo
graphs, that we are positive we can thorough
" satisfy you, too, and when you see the high
quality and modest price of our work, you'll
have no doubt in your mind that this is the
studio to have your pictures taken.

Water Power Project for Cresco

There is an enterprise under contem-
plation up in Bluffton twp, that, if
completed, will be about the most i'm
portant in the county and very valu-
able. A mile so northwest Of the
village the Upl Iowa river makes a
wide detour to le north, then south
east and west around a bluff, a dis
tance of five or six miles, and at the
point of return is only about thirty
three rods from the point where it
flows north. John Mara of Cresco has
secured all of the property rights of
that section, including the river, and
it is proposed to bore hole through
the bluff ten feet in diameter. This
will secure fall OF thirty-two feet,
making the best water power on the
river without question. One cannot
easily comprehend the full amount of
power thus secured. An ample supply
of water rushing through a ten foot
tunnel with fall of about foot to
the rod would be simply wonderful. 1t
would, of course, be an expensive un-
dertaking to build such tunnel: so,
likewise, would be the building of a
dam of sufficient strength to withstand
the floods. The tunnel, once completed
would need nothing in the way of re-
pairs. The stone taken out of the
bluff would be valuable for building
purposes and the tunnel would be a
property that would easily find sale.
Nothing yet has been done but N
Mara says as soon as a competent ell
gineer can be secured to surrey the
property plans and estimates will be
drawn. At present there is an engi-
neer in the Philippines working for the
government who will return to the
states in the near future and he will be
secured if possible When completed
this would give ample power by elec-
tricity for our sister town of Cresco.
The time is not very far distant when
every power. or nearly every one OF
the powers of the Upper Iowa river
will be harnessed and turning the
wheels of industry. This enterprise
will be watched.-Decorah Republican

To Rural Route Patrons and Town
ship Trustees.

am in receipt of letter from Asst.
Postmaster General DeGraw stating
that the road conditions on the Routes
out of this Office are bad and improve
ments must be made at once; the De-
partment is not concerned in elaborate
road improvements, but does insist
upon the roads being kept in good re-
pair and upon the regular use of the
road drag.
Referring to this he writes: present
the matter in the strongest and most
positive way to the patrons and road
officials, informing them that improve
ments must be made as soon az practi-
cable"
"lf after reasonable time, the i'm
provements have not been made, nor
started, you will report the fact to this
office, in order that action may be
taken looking to the discontinuance of
the service"
realize that the farmers can i'll
afford to spare time from their field
work at this season Of the year, but
we do not want to lose one of our
routes and if proper effort is made.
men can be found to do this work.
This has been proven in some of the
townships where good work has been
done at the right time. Paris town
ship in particular, is deserving of
great credit for the workmanlike man
ner in which the roads have been
dragged.
1t will be necessary for the Rural
patrons and the township officers to
work together on the road dragging.
Contracts should be made with men
who will comply with the law and the
work should begin at once as | must
report by May 18th the condition of
the roads and the number of miles of
Rural Routes in each township which
have not been dragged.
The Department is in earnest on the
road question and l ask your cooper
alton in improving conditions that
may send in favorable report on each
township. Respectfully,

BASE BALL.
The second game of the season was
played on Friday last with Decorah on
the grounds. Both teams made pre-
sentable appearance on their way to
the grounds, but it did not take long
after the game started to show both
sides up.
Our boys went to bat first and batted
Baker, the Decorah pitcher, pretty
bard, leading off with three long out
field hits. The inning ended with the
score Of 3 to in our favor. The
second inning was uneventful, but in
the third two more runs were brought
in with two more long hits. The foortt
inning brought in four runs, and two
more long hits. This made the score
to 0 in our favor. From this time
on the game was poor, both sides play
ing loose, Decorah bringing in two
runs. The game finally closing IA to 6
in our favor.
As in the previous game, Patterson
was in the box and Plopper behind the
bat. Patterson is going to make gooc
and he pitched good game ever
though he had sore arm; Decorat
getting only six hits off him. while oul
men pulled off about fifteen hits Fairly
