New County House
A FisO Daildfny on the Poor Farm Ter
tho Helpless of the County


The county commissioners re-
Gently accepted the new county
building on the poor farm from
the builders, Mesers. Voss &
Isaesch0M. The bofIding is 3sx
- feet in sfze, two stories with
basement, and is furnished with
electric light, water and sewer
connections, the electric light
will be supplied by q plant in the
building. On the first floor the
ceilings are 81 feet in height,
and the floor is divided into q
parlor, q living room, a dining
room for the family and a dining
room for the inmates and four
sleeping rooms. The basement
is full size Of the building, with
concrete floor, and an eight foot
ceiling. The upper floor is divid-
ed into sleeping rooms. five of
which are large enough for two
single beds and seven for one
bed, and hot and cold water is
provided for each room. The
rooms have a 8 foot ceiling. A
large attic is also arranged SO
that in case of necessity it may
be used for u sleeping apart
ment
The building presents very
pleasing appearance from the
roadside, and it will be more in
keeping with the character of
Grant County and it's people
than the former ramshackle
building, that was both incon-
venient and unsanitary. Large
pOrches on both stories are a fea-
ture of the architecture, aud the
floors of these are OF concrete.
The inside finish of the building
is all in the natural wood, and
the workmanship throughout is
of the best, no details of the
work being slighted in the least
particular. In fact we believe
the county is to be congratulated
upon the thoroughness with
which Messrs. Voss e. Lue-
schow have fulfilled their con
tract and given the county a
building that wifi beH credit tO
it and fulfill the purpose for
which it has been erected. The
present manager of the county
home Ed. Sacreiter has been in
not only in his
of the farm, but in
the extra work thrust upon him
by the building operations Of the
past summer, and the commits
sioners feel that he is entitled to
the fine accommodations that
the new building will afford him.
The heating plant and plumb
ing work on the new building
was done by B. G. Max6eld, who
has put in a very fine hot water
system, and the painting and
vanishing was the work Of E. f.
Peterson. The change from the
Did quarters to the new home will
be made this week.

10000 LOADED

Twenty carloads OF live chickens
1000 chickens TO tine car. we're be nl
held in Jersey City because angry joO
bers in New York city had refused Z
receive them. Hardly live chicken
was handled by dealers
The trouble arose over a recent com
plant OF jobbers that receivers were
stufing the chickens crops with
weight producing sand and gravel to
make up for shrinkage sustained in
transit. Until receivers agree to aban.
don the practice the dealers say they
will boycott all live poultry. Ordinarily
about 125,00O live fowls are handlea
daily.
Hundreds Of chickens were dying
n their crates and it was said the a.
tention of the Society for the Proven
ton Of Cruelty to Animals had been
called to the matter
The situation is blamed by the
wholesalers on the jobbers and by tie
jobbers on the western shippers
live poultry.
The shippers are the guilty par
ties, said one of the leading receiv
ers. "They send caretakers along with
their stock with instructions to keeg
the birds hungry all the way to Jer
sey City. Most of the poultry comes
from as far west as Missouri. The day
the chickens are to be sent across the
river TO our market the caretakers
feed them great quantities of bread
and meal, mixed with sand and gravel
Each chicken gets about a quarts
of a pound of additional weight stuck
in its crop. and when you figure there
are 1000 birds to a car you can easily
see what a big proposition this feed
ing up process is"

BRONCHITIS SUFFERER
Takes Druggists Advice With
Splendid Result.

If anyone should know the worth
Of a medicine, it is the retail druggist
who sells it over his counter every
day in the week, and is in a position
to know what remedy gives the best
satisfaction.
Mrs. Frank H. Uline. of West Sand
Lake, n. Y, says: For a number Of
years I was great sufferer from
bronchitis. Last July had an attack
which was more severe than any. and
my friends thought I could not recover
from it. Then l was advised by my
druggist to try Vinol, which l did,
with wonderful results. Ny cough
has left me; I have gained in weight
and appetite, and I am as strong as
ever I was. I advise all who have
bronchitis, chronic coughs, or who are
run down to try Vinol."
1t is the combined action Of the
medicinal curative elements of the
Gods liver, without the greasy oil,
aided by the blood-making and
strengthening properties of tonic
iron that makes VinOl so efficient
Remember, We guarantee Vinol
TO do just what we say - we
l,ay back your money if it does not.

Salve stops itching. We guarantee it.

Taking it all in all, the Ye Liberty

Some Big Land Sales Expected.
There is little doubt but what the
land sales in Marion county during thu
next few months will exceed anything
ever recorded by County Recorder An
france. It seems that immigration il
now just reaching this county, and tha'
the rich garden lands are in great de
mand. Although hop picking will hav,
tendency to create a lull in the lane
markets throughout the valley, likely
purchasers can be found in almost any
section of this vicinity.
Due to the unusual favorable crop
being harvested in Marion county 81
far this season, the prospective lane
buyer is taking advantage of the in
formation he can gain by keping il
touch with real conditions. and for thi
reason those who are seeking to dispos
of their farm property have received
ready listeners during the past tw
months.

NEW MAGNETIC PROVES
WINNER IN BIG TESTS

Europe and America are watching a
new magnetic which is gaining fame
abroad. The latest success of this mag
netO, which is called the Mea, was
made in a race across the hills in Craig
anlet, Ireland, few weeks ago, when
it was awarded two first prizes. These
magnetos were carried in this race on
a GregOire and Nom motor car, and
though the est was extraordinary the
magnetos responded to the unusual de.
mands with absolutely perfect scores.
Another triumph for the Mea came
in the Grand Prix de IA. c. F., at the
races at Dieppe, France, considered the
most important of all foreign motor car
events. This race was won by Peugot
ear fitted with the Mea. The car win
ming second prize in this race also car
ried Mea. This achievement is all
the more remarkable because of the
fact that the races in both places were
controlled by competitive products, and
the magnetos were all selected from
stock and the awards were made on the
basis of unmistakable merit.
The winning cars carried only one
magnetic each so the entire fortune Of
each entry depended on the Mea mag
neto, while all competing makes carried
an extra or reserve magnetic ON each
racing car to guard against failure.
The Mea magnetic has made numerous
records which have gained it great pop.
ularity, and it is said the apparatus
will be strongly in evidence in America
in the year 1914.
The Mea is manufactured IN Stutt.
gart, Germany, and Americans will be
interested in knowing that Adolphus
Busch, of st. Louis, is the principle
