There was general shaking up in
the garage business in Leon last

interest of his partner Matt Pullin in
the AXES & Pullin garage. He then
leased the first floor of the big gar
age for two years to Estes & Co., who
moved in at once, vacatlng the
Wright garage. Estes & Co. will do
strictly garage business in con-
nection with their agency for the
Ford and Overland autos. Mr. Axes
reserved the Buick agency, and will
have display space at the garage for
his Bucks and also maintain his Of
flee in the garage. The repair depart
ment of the garage was leased by
Dixon Newton and B. T. Sears, and
they will devote their time exclusive
ly to this department, and the sale
of Cartercars. Cleo Roberts, who
was employed in the repair depart
ment by Axes & Pullin will remain
with the new firm. Mr. Newton has
been employed in garages in Leon for
several years and is tirstclass work
man. T. w. Colby, who was in
charge of the repair department at
the Axes & Pullin garage, has accept
ed position as head of the repair
department at Alexander Bros gar

A Fine New Bridge Completed.

Decatur county has just completed
a fine new concrete and steel bridge
over Weldon creek, two miles west
OF Leroy at the Barger farm, which
was built by county bridge foreman
F.: L. Barrett under the supervision
of county engineer Frank Malette,
and everybody who has seen it says
it is dandy good bridge, 1t is a
fifty foot steel span with concrete
floor and concrete abutments. In it's
construction l54 cubic yards of con-
crete were used and over $4,000
pounds Of steel. Work was COM
menced on it August 18th, and it was
in shape to cross over on Nov. End,
which IL pretty quick work. The
new bridge cost right at $500, and
we are told that the same sized
bridge recently built 3 miles north
of, Leroy in Clarke county, with only
one concrete abutment and with wood
floor cost Clarke county $2,915. This
shows that Decatur county is get
ting her bridge work done at the
right price.

PLANT OPENS.
Edward Aaron & Go. Are Employing
Many..Men at Their New Plant
and Buyinoslots of Poultry.

AS announced in this paper last
week, the burning of Swift & Co. s
big poultry plant in this city few
weeks ago, did not leave Leon long
without a poultry house. The Kan
sas City firm of Edward Aaron & Co.,
who were here negotiating for a
building for temporary quarters, i'm
ally secured the Cesler livery barn
on east Commercial street, which
was hastily remodeled SO it could be
used and they opened for buying
Saturday, and received total of 12S
full coops of chickens the first day,
being literally swamped with busi-
ness. They commenced killing and
dressing poultry Sunday morning and
now have big force of men at work,
about forty being now on the pay
roll, and this number will be lncreas-
ed as fast as men can be secured.
C. NJ. Haines, of Centerville, is the
local manager of the new plant, and
he has been mighty busy man, sew
eral car loads of coops, and other ap-
paratus being shipped here. The new
firm are mighty pleased with the
encouragement they are receiving
and the fine manner in which the
Leon house is starting off, and unless
present plans fail to materialize, they
will erect a big fire proof poultry
plant in this city the coming spring.
Mr.. Haines went to Kansas City Tues
day night on business connected with
the new plant
Everybody in Leon is pleased over
the new plant, for it gives employ
rlent to large number of men who
were thrown out of work by the
burning of the Swift plant. The men
earn good wages and the money is
spent right here in Leon. The farm
ers are also we'll pleased over the
good prices which they are receiving
for their poultry.
This plant makes four poultry
dealers in business in Leon, M. S.
Jones having opened a new poultry
house in the old Clark & McClelland
warehouse, just south of Hansells
store, and j. Stated and A. E. Swim
are also engaged in buying poultry,
The PEOPLE of this part of the state
can rest assured they will get the
very top prices by bringing their poul-
try and eggs to Leon

ship, found buzzard's nest on his
farm last summer and he secured
one of the young buzzard's and at.
tached small tag to its neck, with
his name and address and turned It
loose. Last week he received LETT
ter from farmer down in Oklaho-
ma, saying the buzzard had alighted
in his hog lot, and as he was afraid
1t might bring hog cholera to his
hogs he shot it and found the tag
with Mr.. Smiths name on it. The
baxxard was evidently seeking q
warmer climate in which to spend
the winter.

Fourteen Pages This Week.

After a part of this issue was print
ed. we found we could not get all the
news in our regular twelve pages, so
are compelled to print two extra
pages, although 1t necessitated our
working nearly all night Tuesday in
order to be out on time. We are
greatly Handicapped each week by
parties bringing US matter for publ
cation at q late hour, when such
could just as easily have been
brought in Monday. We trust our
friends will bear the fact in mind
that It takes time to get articles in
print, 4as we'll as advertisements and
send or bring their copy in as early
rs possible.
