City Attorney to Reslen.-Resigna-
ton OF G. A. Shallberg as city attor-
ney will be formally presented to
Mayor NJ. R. Carlson at an early date
and the selection OF successor is a
matter that is now being given con-
sideration. The resolve to retire from
service OF the city, was first presented
to the mayor before the Christmas
holidays, but Mr.. Sha,lberg did not
care to formally withdraw until GER
tain cases in which the city is con-
cerned had been disposed Of. Press of
his professional business, which has
been sacrificed to a certain extent in
the interests of the city, is the one
and only reason for the action, says
Mr.. Shallberg.
Property Wanted for Parks.-Notice
OF trial was posted in the county
court yesterday in the condemnation
proceedings by the city against the
properties of ]. P. Bockentine, H. Dae-
belliehn and the heirs of Dora Hoesli,
all located on Seventh street between
Twelfth and Fifteenth avenues and
abutting Stephens park on the east.
This action is taken in accordance
with terms of the Deere park donation
which stipulated that the city secure
control of these properties in the
scheme for the linking together of
Stephens and Deere parks by bridge
over the ravine at this point. There
are residences on the three properties
which will be made a part and parcel
of the park plot. The case will be
heard at the next session of the county
court. Damages may amount to $4,000
or more.
Pedestrian Returns Home.-Peter
Ploog, who eft Moline Wednesday,
Jan. %, to walk to Chicago in four
days, returned home at 1870 Saturday
afternoon. He reached Chicago at 8
a. m. last Tuesday, between five and
six days being required for the trip.
Had Ploog made the trip in four days
a Moline manufacturer, he says, was
to have given him 500. Ploog says
he will make the trip again, this time
in company with Charles Peterson.

New Building for Deere.-New build
ings to be erected by Deere & Co.
in East Moline during the coming sea-
son herald a boom Of significance to
the development Of that city into a
greater industrial center. Plans are
perfected for the erection Of four fine
new factory buildings and their COM
p.etion will necessitate the addition Of
at least 1000 workmen to the manufac-
turing force in the East Moline plants
of the Deere concern. Few commun-
tiles can anticipate an increase in pop
ulation and resources in one years
time from one source alone Of such
substantial nature. Bulk of the in
prcvements during 1913 will be cen
tered about enlargement of the Deere
Harvester plant, upon which 100000
was spent in new buildings last year
alone. This particular industry of the
Deere corporation has developed from
infancy to formidable proportions in
an incredibly short time and demand
for its product, even in the face of
stern competition is heavy.

New Sewer and Water System
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1913-02-04

The county court has confirmed the
petition for a new sewer and water
system in the Sugar Hollow road dis
trict, action for which was commenc-
ed nearly a year ago. The system
will take in a section running south
on Nineteenth street between Twelfth
and Eighteenth avenues and also por-
tons of Twenty-second and Twenty
third streets. Bids for the construc.
ton work, amounting to about $4,000,
will be received soon.
Moline PIow Buys Property.-Pur-
chase of the building and lot on the
southeast corner of Third avenue and
Fifteenth street was contaminated
yesterday by the Moline Pillow COM
pany. Though neither seller-the
State Savings Bank & Trust Co.--nor
buyer would name the exact considera-
ton involved, 1t is known that the
property was considered an $4,000
asset by the bank. The building
on the lot is three stories in height
and has a basement arranged for Of
fee rooms. 1t has a 20-foot frontage
on Third avenue and a depth of 80
feet on the street. Plans are being
made for remodeling of the building
and ultimately it will be used for
offices by the purchasing and traffic
departments of the pillow company The
change viii be made in a very short
time, present tenants moving to other
buildings TO make room for the pillow
force. The building was erected in
1869. Since shifting of business south
Of the tracks the property has de-
Perforated in value for mercantile pur-
poses but it is ideal for the use to
which it will be put.
Obtuary.-Many friends Of Mrs.
Erick Johnson and husband, formerly
of this city, are panied to learn of
her death in her home in Milwaukee
at > o'clock Sunday morning. She had
been i'll only five days, death being due

'7O's, and resided most of the time
at the corner of Fourteenth street
and Thirteenth avenue. v N.n5)n

The front tires on my machine do not

because there is more weight on the
front tires. or do YOU suppose some
thing is wrong with the wheels
The front tires should wear consider
ably longer than the rear, since they
do not receive the driving strain which
the rear tires receive. Would advise
having your steering mechanicism
looked over. in order TO ascertain
whether the arms have been sprung or
not. If the wheels are slightly out Of
alignment then your front tires are
constantly sliding more or less in
stead of rolling, and they viii wear out
