S|COURNEY HAS A
BUILDING BOOM
TWO NEW BUILDINGS TO BE
BUILT AND ONE REMOD-
ELED SOON.

Sigourney, Oct. 14.-Some fine i'm
provemenrs will be made on and near
the public square in Sigourney in the
immediate future. The Citizens Saw
ings bank recently let the contract for
the remodeling of their banking house.
For long time the officers of this in
stitution have had this matter under
consideration. In view of the ever in
creasing business of the bank it has
become necessary that they have more
room to accommodate their help. An
architect was recently employed who
devised plans for the improvements.
The plan includes an entire rearrange-
ment of the interior and an entire new
front. The improvements are SO ex-
tensive that it will require several
months to complete the work. In the
meantime the bank will be moved into
the northwest room of the basement
of the court house until the work is
done.
Kracht brothers have purchased the
ground on the southwest corner on the
square from DR.. F. A. Strawbridge,
which includes four business lots and
they will at once commence the cree
ton of an up to date garage. The new
building will have front on the
square of A feet and run back to the
alley 1872 feet and then south "A feet,
making another frontage upon the
street to the south. This will make
one Of the most up to date garages in
this part Of the country.
A. J. Bensmiller purchased the old
s. G. Fair lot, also on the southwest
corner Of the square and he now has
men at work on the foundation get
ting ready to build handsome new
garage building. The building will be
Just off the square to the west and
will be an up to date brick structure,
which Mr.. Bensmiller will use as
general sales room for(his automobile
business.

ENGINEERS INSPECT.
CONCRETE DEFECTS
FAILURE or WORK THAT GOES IN
TO BUILDINGS AND PAVING
PROMPTS INVESTIGATION.

Ames, Oct IA. - Because there IL
often more Or less failure Of the con-
crete work that goes into buildings
and pavements, the Iowa engineering
experiment station at Ames has start
ed a thorough investigation to get at
The trouble and remedy it. The sta
ton will in the next six months ex-
anime more than $500 concrete speci-
mems of all kinds and from a story OF
the results set up standard tests for
sand and gravel to determine whether
they are suitable for use in concrete. )
Much of the trouble seems to lie in
the sand and gravel used Cement
manufacturers are generally turning
out a product which complies closely
to standard specification, but the sand
and gravel used vary seriously. 1t
seems essential to adopt some sort Of
standard test Of these important ma
terials and the American society for
testing materials, the highest author
ity In the country on this subject, has
selected the Iowa engineering expert
ment station to assist it's special COM
mittee along these lines.
How important satisfactory stand
ards and tests are may be gathered
from the fact that In Iowa alone this
past year at least $780, 900 were. spent
for highway bridges and culverts. The
money put into buildings, pavements
and other concrete construction aggre-
gated many more billions.

TO CONNIE nee
NEW CATHEDRAL
WILL BE ONE OF FINEST MASONIC
BUILDINGS WEST OF. THE
MISSISSIPPI.

Des Moines, Oct. IA. - A building
which is expected to add to the archi-
tectural beauty of Des Moines is the
new Masonic cathedral which the Des
Moines consistory of Scottish Rite
Masons plan to begin next year.
The building, which will be one of
the most imposing of its kind in the
west, will represent an investment OF
approximately 100000.
The building would probably have
been started over a year ago had not
the breaking out of the war disrupted
the financial market. These difficulties
have since been overcome.
The cathedral will be located at the
southwest corner Of Fourteenth and
West High streets. The consistOry
owns a lot at this point 132x1S0 feet
Tentative plans have been worked out
and the building committee has looked
over similar buildings in other cities.
Omaha was recently visited for this
purpose. The Omaha structure cost
about 100000 The Des Moines build
ing therefore is expected to be much
at Omaha.
The members Of the building COM
mittee are: Charles M. Cathcart, Park
err T.. Crouch, Francis R. Korns, Will
liam KOCH Melborn McFarlin, Hora-
ito F.. Dale, Francis A. Brown and r.
Nj. J. Coleman.

evening at Darner's barn. He supports
his statements by the theory that hog
! cholera Is not germ disease for If 1t
was the germ would be discovered and
the Ottumwa veterinarian contends
that this germ has never yet been
found. He produced a number of gov
eminent bulletins and statistical tables
to show what work had been done
tlons the lines of hog cholera investi-
CATION, giving it all in a concise and
clear manner. He showed the progress
that has been made both by the in
vestigation and by the disease and
read figures to substantiate his state
ments.
One set of statistics show the hog
losses in some of the surrounding
states since experiments were begun.
These We're made in 1909 and 1910 and
the local doctor says that In 1911 Hi
nois lost 997 900; Iowa, 775,000; Mis-
souri,, $4,000: Nebraska, 256,000 and
Oklahoma, 100000. In 1912. Iowa lost
over 100000 hogs. DR.. Lowry says
that this was more than any other
state because more vaccinating was
done in this state than in the others.
In 1913 the number in this state had
increased to 100000. In 1910 the
number of hogs condemned under fed
eral inspected slaughtering was $4,000:
in 1911, $1,000; in 1912. $4,000; in 1913
$4,000 and in 1914, 204,000. This was
for ell diseases but for hog cholera
condemnation alone the number jump
ed from 1000 in 1907 to 116107 in 1914.
DR.. Lowry quoted several parts of the
record of the proceedings of the Ma
tionai Sanitary associations meeting
held last February in Chicago in which
DR.. Ward, the state veterinarian for
Minnesota said, Two Or three years
ago we expected that by this time hog
cholera would be thing of the past.
But there are greater losses than ever
and it has now invaded new sections.
This has been brought about by the in
lection Of virus and contaminated
serum
In closing Dr. Lowry said that three
years ago he stood entirely alone in
his stand on the hog cholera PROPOSE
ton but that he did not now and that
there were many who realize that they
commit glaring error when they give
their animals the double treatment.
