matter OF condition OF the Decoran
branch anent the disastrous wreck a.
Maynard, tayette county.
There was recognition of the fact
that the conoltlon OF the branch lines
is not good, especially the line 10 De
cOrah, and that there is imperative
need OF making the rCadbed and equip
ment better IA the safety tirst' luea
is to prevail. 1t was brought out on
tho hearing that as matter OF fact
the maintenance department Is now
working under orders to eXpend ht
least $4,000 q month for wages more
than under normal conditions. that
there has been placed on the line the
past few months some $4,000 new ties,
and that next year 1t is the plan TO
put in 10000 more ties. MIR. Whiten-
ton also stated to the commission that
it is his policy to have the most o.
the work done in Iowa in betterments
on the branch lines and that the sew
eral hundred miles of roadbed unbal-
lasted will be ballasted and heavier
rails will be placed on the branches. He
stated this as his policy, and that ie
would be carried out unless those high
er up refuse to furnish the money or
permit the expenditures indicated. II
there is any failure due to this cause
the general manager will inform the
commission of the fact and it can take
the steps necessary to enforce i'm
provement.
Since the Maynard wreck the train
men have also been instructed not to
run trains faster than twenty five
miles an hour on the DEBORAH branch.
This outcome Of the matter is the
direct result OF energetic work on the
part Of the railroad commission in
making the investigation which was
commenced as soon as the Maynard
wreck was reported. The commission
will have the roadbed inspected by
an employe who will report on it's con-
dition.

is the parcel post. 1t is growing IN

THE STATE PRISON
FARMS INCREASING VALUE
Big Crops and Water Assured
With More Land Under
Cultivation

Carson Appeal: The development
OF water at the State Prison Farm
is meeting with the greatest of sue
cess and the question of supplying
sufficient water to put the entire
holding of land under cultivation has
been practically solved. Three wells
have been dug and pumps on them
are giving a goodly supply. These
wells are to be enlarged by
the driving of crosscuts from the
bottom of the we'll allowing of a
greater seepage area and at the same
time forming storage tanks. Elec-
trio pumps are now connected to the
wells and this will be later so ar
ranged that they will run continu-
ously and supply all the water need
ed. Several other wells will be dug
on the higher ground of the ranch
and this water will allow of the cult
vation of all the land. During the
Winter months the force on the ranch
will be employed in clearing a lot of
new land and leveling it off ready for
planting in the Spring.
AT the present time the crops are
in the best of condition and sufficient
vegetables have been raised to supply
the prison for the coming year. The
crops consist of potatoes. cabbages,
onions, peas and beans. More hay
and grain has been raised than
enough to supply the prison and farm
for the coming year. There is lot
of pasturage to be rented and is
oden to renters at this time.
An ice house is to be built at once
and the ice stored to supply the
prison. The ice bill at the prison at
this time averages about thousand
dollars a year and having this supply
furnished by the prison farm will
mean big saving to the institution.
