COMING HERE FROM CANADA

Two hundred Austrians and Rus
slams, the vanguard of an army of I'M
employed estimated at 1000, from
Canada in their search for work,
which they believe will be given
them across the border in the United
States. The little army was much
weakened by exposure, many of its
number having been without food
since leaving Winnipeg three days
ago.
Leaders of the band declare they
will present themselves to the United
States immigration officials tomorrow
for entry. Both the, Canadian and
United States officials say they will
oppose any attempt by the unemploy-
ed to cross the line, and trouble is
feared.
Owing to lack of employment in
Canada, it is stated by leaders of the
men that between 1000 and 1000
more of their countrymen will start
for the United States in a few days.
IL they are admitted.

GAME WARDEN SAYS

State Game Preserve VIII Raise
5000 Pheasants. Those Put out
Last Doing Well.
The state game preserve located on
the Iowa state fair grounds Is plan
ming to raise about 5000 ringnecg
pheasants this season. This is more
than twice the number raised On the
game farm last year when 1000
birds were Matched out. These birds
will be distributed over the state. Re-
ports coming in from various parts
Of Iowa indicate that the birds which
were put out last year to the num-
Der of about 1000 are doing well.
While there were frequent SHOWS In
most localities the past winter. there
were no exceedingly deep SHOWS such
as sometimes occur and which are al
ways hard on game birds.
There will be some partridges
raised on the game farm this year,
but as a rule they do not do as we'll
as the ringneck pheasants. There
will also be some quail raised. At
the present there are a number of
varieties of pheasants on the state
game farm including the silvers,
goldens, reeves and Lady Hammers.
There is quite flock of wild geese
and also of wild ducks. There are
about forty cartridges on the pre-
serve and a small flock Of quail. The
farm will be stocked up so that at
fair time it will have an interesting
exhibit of wild birds and fish.

STUART ESTATE MUST PAY

The estate of the late Mrs. Lois
Stuart, who died about year and q
half ago, must pay the Presbyterian
church at Ames, $4,000, subscribed
for a new church building by that
denomination in that city by the de-
ceased when she was alive. Yester-
day in the district court here Judge
Rockafellow held that the subscrip-
ton, made by Mrs. Stuart, who died
not long after she made it, and be-
fore it was paid, must be paid by the
executors. The case was argued by
Judge Lee, former candidate for the
republican gubernatorial nomination
and Attorney Nichols, for the church
and Attorney Kerberg of Audubon
for the estate, and was heard here
because this was a convenient place
because Judge Rockafellow will not
reconvene court at Audubon till next
Monday.
The new church at Ames Is to cost
Naround $4,000 and the $4,000 sub
scription is one of many.-News-Tel-

only countries where the people were
not rushing TO the cities. He com
pared the times of fifty years ago
With the condition today and said
that eighty per cent of the people liv-
ed in the country in times past as
compared with one-third of the peo-
pie that live on the farms today. He
went on to say that it Was hard to
find a farm family today where all
the members expected to remain on
the farm and follow farming as their
LIES work. The reason he gave for
people wanting TO move to town. es-
pecially the older people, was to give
their children a better chance and
tfat the children also developed a
discomfort for farm life.
IF the conditions are against
country life, then all the best people
will go to the city. 1t is time for us
10 take up and study the reasons why
the people rush to the cities. We
can help to urn back this tide OF
