PURITY OATS TO
BUILD ADDITION
Contract Let for $4,000 EX-
tension to Davenport
Plant.

The Mccarthy Improvement com
pany was yesterday awarded the con-
tract for the new S150,O00 corn plant
and mill to be erected by the Purity
Oats company adjoining its present
plant at the foot of Pine street in
Davenport.
The new factory will be five stories
and basement in height in one part
and three stories in the remainder.
Ground dimensions will be 72 by 120
feet. The new plant will enable the
Purity Oats company to turn out a
full auxiliary line to the product at
present on the market and will give
the local concern a chance to put in
a strong bid for trade throughout the
southern states.
Work on the new plant was begun
at once by the Mccarthy company.
1t is estimated the building will be
completed and ready for operation
by the 1st of December.

10 pieces. It was urged that the city
force the contractor TO put the same
in proper shape. The matter was re-
ferred to Commissioner Reynolds.
Commissioner Reynolds reported
that he had already taken up with
superintendent J. G. Huntoon of the
Tri-City Railway company. the matter
of starting the Thirty-eighth street car
line service and that the latter prom
ised the same in the near future.
To Remove Buildings.
An ordinance was introduced by
Commissioner Hart, providing for the
removal of buildings which have been
condemned. The present ordinance
was not considered drastic enough.
Recently orders of the building inspec-
tor TO have certain buildings placed in
sanitary and clsanly condition have
not been complied with and under the
new measure. the city will be given
authority to remove the buildings in
question. If necessary.
Commissioner Hart offered a resolu-
ton providing for the purchase of
1000 feet of hose for the fire depart
ment, but withdrew the same when
Commissioner Rudgren stated he
would like further time to consider
the bids.
\ bill of Commissioner Harris,
amounting to s46.72. for money he had
advanced in the Aura Belle
White and SchoesseI cases, was al
lowed.
Need Sidewalks.
Sidewalks are badly needed on Ninth
street. Eleventh to Eighteenth avenues,
according to Commissioner Hart and
his recommendation that the board
of local improvements provide for the
same was fGvorably acted on. Com
Hart claimed that since
there we're no sidewalks on the high
way mentioned. the street itself was
used and that this proved dangerous,
especially at night when crowds are
coming from Exposition park.
Protest that the entire neighborhood
was carrying water from a hydrant at
52T Seventh street. was made by Com
missioner Hart. He said that a whole
block on Sixth avenue, Seventh to
Eighth streets. had no wells or water
service in il and the residents of that
locality had formed a regular bucket
brigade. He declared that a meter

LAND IS CHEAP
BECAUSE ROADS
ARE Improve
Property Near Rock Island
Might Be Made Much
More Valuable.
POINT RAISED AT MEETING
Several Speakers Heard at Session at
AndaIusia Under AssocIa-
ton Auspices.

Few urban communities in the Unit
ed States of 100000 population are
surrounded with land as low in price,
relatively, as the three cities, this ap-
plying especially to property from five
to twenty-five miles away The rea-
son for this us that the highways here
are not up to the standard of other
populous localities, making it impossi-
BILE for the use of a wide area adjacent
TO the cities for trucking, fruit growing
and dairying.
This is one of the points made by
the speakers at the meeting at Anda-
lusia last evening under the auspices
of the Rock Island County Highway
Improvement association, and IL was
one of the strongest arguments yet
offered. William McEniry was the
speaker who brought the matter to
the attention of the audience. He
made il clear that those living within
% miles of the cities are fighting their
own best interests in opposing means
of building permanent highways now.
Around other cities of population equal
to that of Rock Island, Moline and
Davenport, where modern roads have
been in use for term of years, land
values for a score or more miles out
run as high as $500 per acre, while in
Andalusia township, about seven miles
in the most direct line for a wagon
road. there is good. productive land
which can now be bought for from
800 to 5000 per acre. Were it posi-
BILE TO get to market from Andalusia
with produce every day in the year
the people would be raising fruit and
vegetables and dairying on a large
scale and their property would be
worth much more and support larger
population.
Like Other improvements.
Mr.. McEniry showed that while the
usual tendency is to oppose improve
ments which cost money, after they
are once made the people almost in
variably wonder how they ever got
along without them. The telephone
and land drainage were cited as in
stances proving this contention.
In Rock Island not much more than
a score of years ago there were many
business men who objected to the paw
ing OF second avenue, Dut now any
property owner who would fight the
paving OF the main business streets
in any city of 10000 population would
be considered a fit candidate for the
insane asylum. The road question, in
the speakers opinion, is one which is
bond to attract more and more atten-
ton till it is eventually settled in the
only possible way. and that is by the
building of permanent highways for
the main lines of travel. The bond is
sue is the only way to make such i'm
H. S. Cable said that experience
shows that as the people advance their
for rapid progress steadily |
grows. An instance in point came I'M
der his notice recently. In New York |

The choicest nearby gobblers which
were bringing 80 and 80 cents a pound
at Thanksgiving time, can now be pur-
chased at 2S cents while the common
birds not designated as fancy" and
Western turkeys are sold at prices rang
ing from 25 to q cents a pound.
Many housewives who had expected that
the price Of Christmas gobblers would
prove prohibitive are finding they can pur-
chase the seasonable delicacy at figures
as low as that of roasting chickens which
they had expected to substitute. Some
are taking advantage of damaged tur-
keys-blrds which have been bruised or
rubbed in shipping or that have crooked
breastbones-as the llleat OF these is OF n
good quality and the price ranging from
H to % cents a pound.
Those who wish something out of tho
ordinary for the Christmas dinner win
find plentiful supply of venison offered
at prices ranging from 15 to 30 cents for
stewlng meat and at 10 cents pound for
steaks and chops. Bear meat is sold at
90 cents a pound, rabbits at prices rang

at s1.15 a pair. Sucking pigs are also
seasonable favorites this year, and are
selling at figures ranging from $3.50 to
$3.50 each, according to size and quality.
A remarkable drop in the price of cram
berries has taken place since Thanksglv-
ing time. The choicest Jerseys" are
sold at from 6 to cents a quart, as
against 10 to 15 cents asked at the earle
holiday. The change is said to be due
to the excellent weather conditions which
have prevailed. enabling the growers to
flood the cranberry bogs at the proper
time and under the proper conditions. A
record harvest of the turkey berries"
was made and they are of an usually
good quality.
