Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, November n.-tSpecial.)
Bear influences depressed prices today, To-
cal and Wall street selling finding no
support from the recent buyers. The Ma
tional Ginners' association estimated L.
500 600 ginned from first to fourteenth, the
largest on record since 1906.
Liverpool gave no help to the market
and southern offerings further depressed
prices.
Reports of imminent labor troubles at
the Lawrence mills were disquieting and
hedge cotton appeared. A large ginning
estimate on Friday is expected. A Mem
phis paper estimates the crop at 1S,oI2.ooo
bales. New England ports show increased
receipts.

SHOWN Of SALARY
NEW STATE LAW DEPRiVES THE
TOWNSHIP OFFICIALS Of
THEIR REMUNERATION.

School treaSurers, now employed IN
several townships of Wapello county,
have been shorn of their salaries by
new bill that just recently became ef-
fectiye. The forty-seven treasurers
now employed in Adams, Agency, Cass,
Center. Columbia, COMPETING, Dahlon-
ega. Highland and Washington town
ships are deprived of any compensa-
ton for their services. The officials
of Richland, Keokuk, Polk, Pleasant
and G reen townships are not affected
bv the new law because the school
districts there are independent. The
township affected and the number OF
treasurers in each follow: Adams,
two; Agency, five; Cass, two; Center,
seven; Columbia, two; Competlne,
nine; Dahlonega, four; Highland,
eight, and Washington, eight.
The new law also amends section
276S of the supplement, the following
words being added: 1T is hereby
made the duty of the treasurer OF each
school corporation to deposit all funds
in his hands as such treasurer in some
bank, or banks, in the state at interest
at the rate Of at least two per cent per
annum on ninety per cent or the daily
balances payable at tne emu OF eacn
month all of which shall accrue to the
benefit of the contingent fund OF such
school corporation; but before such
hdeposit is made, such bank snail ME
bond with sureties to be approved
bv the treasurer and the board OF d.
rectors of such corporation in double
the amount deposited. conditioned to
hold the school corporation harmless
from all loss by reason of such deposit
or deposits; provided, that ing cases
where an approved surety conlpany's
bond is furnished, said bond may be
accepted in an amount equal to ten
1O) per cent more than the amount
deposited. Said bond shall be filed
with the president of the school board
and action may be brought thereon
either by the treasurer or the school
corporation as the board may elect

fered Life and Property

COUNCIL BLUFFS
WAS HARDEST HIT
thirteen is Toll of Death in
CITY on Missouri, While
Neighboring Towns Help
\ to Swell the List.

Des Moines, March 25.-Twenty-nlnee
died in the storm that demollsned
Iowa homes Easter Sunday night, ana
reports from all points are not IN.
Twenty-four were injured, largely IN
the same district.
Property was damaged in more than
half of the counties, in every part OF
the state.
Seven counties in the southwestern
corner of Iowa were visited by storms
of as cyclonic intensity as that when
wrought havoc in the residence district
of Omaha earlier in the day.
Property lossesN of more than $780,
600 in Iowa can be accounted, by re-
ports already received. The total loss
probably will be triple that amount.
Council Bluffs was visited by the
first and most fatal tornado. Thirteen
died there, and as many. were injured.
REPORTS from Omaha are to the ef-
feet that two distinct storms hit that
city at about the same time. Only
on this hypothesis can the widely sep
arated loss of life in southwestern
Iowa be accounted for.
Were Two Storms.
Trailing the storm by it's death toll,
it would seem that two vortexes cross
ed the river into Iowa, one tearing for
itself path through the, southern
residence section of Council Bluffs.
This appears to have followed the

CREAM R|ES ARE
PAYING PLANTS
MILK INDUSTRY IN IOWA PROVES
TO BE A PROFITABLE
BUSINESS.

Des Moines, March 25.-Iowa COM
munities with wellestablished cream
cries in operation realize that the
creamery is an excellent manufacture
ing establishment Many Iowa towns
with around 1000 inhabitants have
creameries with annual outputs Of
from $4,000 to $2O0,000 which show
up in heavy bank deposits, cash bust
ness at the stores, sustained fertility
Of the farm lands and the numerous
advantages of thrifty community.
Some l13.200 patrons of 594 Iowa
creameries reporting to the Iowa
state dairy department in 1912 re-
ceived approximately $30,0O0,OOO for
their butter fat. This would make the
annual income of each patron from
his cream alone about s265. AS mat
ter of fact many of the farmers sell
ing cream to the creamery will make
good deal more than that, 800 per
month and better not being at all un-
usual. With the great majority CT
them this dairying is only a side line.
They keep small herd of COWS, aver
aging, according to his report. about
seven COWS to the patron. General
farming is followed by most of these
farmers.
The total value of the cream check
represents only a part of the gross in
come from each cow. inasmuch as the
skim milk fed to the hogs is an i'm
portant item. The value Of the manure
in sustaining the fertility of the farm
is another important consideration.
But the cream check shows the ready
money coming in which is such an i'm
portant factor in the thrift of the COM
munity. =~.
Cooperative Creamery.
The report of the cooperative
creamery at st. Ansgar. Mitchell coun-
ty, for the year ending January /. 1918,
shows that this creamery paid out over
$82, 600 last year St. Ansgar>@at the
time of the last census had popula-
ton of TAI people. An $4,000 factory
in community Of this size is an i'm
portant industry and this report is con-
sidered by our state dairy department
as fairly typical of successful cooper
| ative creameries in Iowa. There are
| many such creameries in the state.
In fact. the creamery industry in
Iowa is the second manufacturing in
dustry in the state in value of it's pro-
ducts. being exceeded only by the meat
packing industry. The total value of
! the dairy products in 1912 is estimated
