LOCAL COMMENT

If Linn township property must be
assessed equally with Marshalltown
city property upon the same millage
levy of 3S.5 mills for school purposes
when consolidated with the MARSHALL
town school district. 1t will make that
plan prohibitive. altho many a rural
community is voting to consolidate
with villages in the face Of school
levies varying from 25 to 3S mills in
this county. In the case Of villages the
including of farm territory in the
school district serves to reduce the
levies, because the relative proportion
of farm values to village values pro
rates the levies down. MarshAlltOwn
being 80 large city it would require
an immense area Of rural territory to
affect it's levies, and yet il would be
perfectly practicable to include within
this school district everything within
five miles of the court house which
would constitute a district of 100
square miles.
Linn township, acting alone. Will
probably content itself with paving for
the transportation of it's children to the
graded schools of the city, and the
paying of tuition. but were compre-
hensive project of school consolidation
planned it might result in actually re-
ducing the mllage levy all around. for
the reason that the assessed valua-
ton of this much new territory would
be more than half of the assessed
valuation of Marshalltown, and the eN-
pense of taking care Of the added
school population would not be In
, creased anywhere near 50 per cent, for
there would not be to exceed 500 fami-
| lies added.
Be this as it may, the time is here for
| school consolidation. Within the pres
ent year every village in this county
will have consolidated it's rural vicin-
| ity, and State Center even proposes to
take in forty square miles. There will
be left practically the Marshalltown
vicinity only, and five miles in each
direction from the court house would
! constitute practically the logical dis
| board should be outlining a definite
policy before the villages all around US
have reached out and taken in terri
tory too close to us. All school 'busses
should lead to Marshalltown as we'll as
the main travelled roads.
The Liscomb school consolidation
was defeated nominally because Of fear
| that the moral influence Of a towr
school would not be as good as that oi
a rural school but in fact it was de.
feated largely by the opposition Of q
bachelor who has no children and il
may be presumed that the question OF
taxation entered the equation. Il may
have been that the plan proposed was
too ambitious and took in too much
territory. The determination OF thu
consolidators to try again Is com.
mendable for they are reasona bly, sure
to win and with less territory included
those living nearest to the town whose
] children can be served with the leas

ing tomatoes, pumpkins. sweet corn
etc., but how about the cucumber
crop?'
A number of people in this vicinity
who have had experience in the grow
ing of "cucumbers" will no doubt agree
with us that under normal conditions
this crop has paid larger returns to the
grower than any other crop.
We have revised our seasons con-
tract to the advantage of the grower
and agree to pay the highest price that
we have paid during our twenty years
existence, which insures the grower
very handsome returns for his labor on
a small investment.

Inconvenience may have their own
way about It.

And this unprecedented activity Ia
school consolidation suggests what
wonderful movement small amount
Of state aid can bring about. II the
| state could use It's auto license money
along with nearly million per annum
from the national government. what q
stir It could make in the matter Of road
improvement by inducing the localities
to act.
The publishing of complete report
Of the affairs Of the county will be a
good NhlnE for the public service. and
should have been done long ago. Citi-
zens who ffehackward about butting
into county offices to dig up informa-- :
tion about the conduct, Of the public
service may now quietly ask for q copy
Of the, auditors pamphlet and study
the thing out at home. Many false
rumor will be corrected. and many an
officer will know that more public at
tention Is to be given to the affairs OF
his Office. It will work to the good
Of the service all around. Money spent
for publicity Of public affairs is the
best investment the public can ever
make, as it stops many a leak and
often prevents leaks from even appear
ing.
Practically every county along the
Lincoln Highway has made liberal ap-
,prcpriations for putting that trunk line
to grade this summer excepting Mar
shall county. Our own board expects
, to do the same soon, but some of the
other counties have gone SO far as to
appropriate half their county road
funds for this year for this one road
because the California exposition,
which is expected to attract 80 much
travel. will be drawing it's crowds next
year. Owners of land along the route
should be up and doing in regard to the
Improvement of their road, for there
is bare possibility Of getting some
thing for nothing. The president of the
Lincoln Highway Association, in his
article in the February Scribner's
magazine, says that his association eX-
poets to have money enough to pave
the Lincoln Highway across Iowa with
concrete when the localities put the
route to grade. but State Engineer
Macdonald doubts this. There is at
least a chance and it should not be
passed up. Out in Green county this
week two farmers donated $3.50 to get
the route shifted one mile north to go
past their farms, and all along the
route there is great activity in aiding
the county to complete the grading OF
permanent road grade almost equal
to double track grade for a railroad.
Why not call a convention of Lincoln
Highway boosters and property own
ers in this county?
