a Neglected Field.

Des Moines Capital: Some manufac-
turers have been woefully weak on
distribution in Iowa. They have fail
ed To take into account the prosperity
OF the country and of the small towns.
No state in the union has so many
good small towns, so many good news
papers in small communities, SO many
chautauuuas, or so many high schools
and good graded schools in small
cities and towns. These things all in
dictate that the real greatness Of Iowa
Is not in it's cities, but in its rural
districts and small towns. There are
many states of the union where man.
ufa Cturers have made no effort to get
distribution In rural communities and
small towns. In Iowa they are over
looking a most important end of the
market when they overlook the farm
er and the small town. One automo-
bile company, with a record Of sec
ond in the largest number Of cars
sold in Iowa. reports about so percent
Of its product sold to farmers. Ono
clothing manufacturer who until a
few years ago made no effort to adj
vertise in Iowa because Of the "big
per cent of country population has
now discovered that this country pop
ulation provides for him the very best
market he could possibly get. So he
now goes after business in Iowa,
through the city press, and by so
doing has more than doubled his bust
ness in Iowa in the past two years.
Advertising may be looked upon as
a rather dry subject to the average
reader. But it is subject of increas-
ing importance in Iowa by virtue Of
the fact that Iowa is just beginning to
be understood by the big advertisers.
More advertising in Iowa will mean
more business and We will all profit
by it.

TO STOP ILLICIT
SALE OF EXTRACTS
State Dairy Commissioner Barney
Plans Prosecution Of Bootleg
ging In Essences.

w. B. Barney. state dairy and fool
commissioner, has sent out to inspec-
tiers of the department., instructions to
prosecute grocers who sell lemon and
vanilla extract as beverage. In
view Of the strict temperance laws
enacted by the general assembly, it Is
believed that persons wanting alec.
holic drink will resort to the use of
medtcated booze and extracts.
The letter follows:
This department has always had
more or less trouble on account Of
the sale by the grocer Of fractional
strength lemon and vanilla favoring
extract as a beverage.
Since the enactment Of the more
stringent temperance legislation by the
last general assembly. these COM
plants are becoming more frequent
than ever. ... -.,
I'VE believe that 80 per cent OF
the grocerymen are not in favor ct
making their store grog shop, and
will not sell these products as a bev-
erage. We are also certain that
those who do sell as a beverage, do 80
knowingly from the fact that these
goods are only required in small
quantities for food purposes and in
much larger quantities as a drink.
We are asking all of the repra-
sentatives Of this department to- take
this matter up with the grocerymen
and others, as they go over their re.
spective territories-the late court de-
cisions are such as would indicate that
parties selling these products as a
beverage may be prosecuted under the
temperance laws

BRUSSELS, June 20.-(By mail to

throughout Belgium and northern
France that Germany is preparing to
either annex territory at the end OF
this war, or, to reconstruct the rail-
roads, towns and country damaged by
the war. Whatever Germany's aim

one that the German science of pre-,

ruins of La Chapelle and Louvain,

other places that one cannot mention.
I talked with the inhabitants and the
! military authorities and everywhere I
was impressed by the activity Of the
German people, through their civil as
we'll as military representatives.
| Germany has sent expert engineers
into Belgium to rebuild the railroads.
German workmen are constructing
iron and concrete bridges in many
places where they were blown up both
by the Belgian and German forces.
German foresters are scattered
throughout Belgium instituting a
system of conservation of valua BILE
trees German agricultural experts
are directing the planting of crops
and the tilling of the soil and from
appearances the Belgian fields are
one vast food garden.
! Wheat fields are everywhere. Sugar
beets have been dug up and are piled
in heaps along the road side awaiting
transportation to the sugar refneries.
German doctors are assisting the Bel.

improving city sanitation. German
teachers. who know French, are as

cities I was told that education Of
children was now compulsory, for it

although German is now also taught.
In Brussels the city Is under the

are repairing streets and caring for
the palace grounds Of King Albert.
The grounds Of the former King Leo

were untouched. From the former

Brussels itself was as busy as Der
