DAVIS COUNTY MEN
TO DO ROAD WORK

Bloomfield, April 21.-The Davis
county board of supervisors and the
county engineer, H. o. Wray, have
mapped out road program for 1915.
The program consists chiefly of grad
ing county roads and making such re-
pairs to bridges and the building OF
such new bridges as may be deemed
necessary
Among the roads to be graded first
are the Bloomfield Ottumwa road, the
Bloomf1e cid -Belknap road, the Bloom
field-Drakesville road, the Waubonsie
trail on the east from the south GENE
terry to the Van Buren, county line,
and on the west from John Hender-
sons corner to the Appanoose county
line.
A forty foot bridge across Salt
creek east of Floris will be built soon
as well as a new bridge on Fox bot
tom on the Bloomfield-B elknap road.
and other smaller bridges and cul-
verts. One hundred pipe culverts
haze been ordered
One of the most notable things to
be done on the Bloomfield ttumwa
road is the cutting out of the danger.

by Woodwork Clum, secretary Of the
Greater Iowa committee:
The greatest hydro-electric plant on
earth is at Keokuk, Iowa; the largest
basket factory in the United States is
at Burlington, the largest broom fac
tory in the world is at Davenport, the
largest macaroni factory in the world
is at Davenport, the largest cereal fac
tory in the world is at Cedar Rapids,
Mason City is the most extensive clay
greatest calendar factory in the world
is at Red Oak, the largest sash and
door factory in the United States is at
Dubuque, the largest proprietary
products center in the world, the
medicine factory in the world is at
Des Moines, the largest furniture fac
tory in the United States is at Bur-
lington, the largest cream separator
plant in the United States is at Wa
terloo while Muscatine Is the center
of the pearl buttbn industry of the

In addition to this the candy fac
tories Of Iowa, two of the largest Of
which are in Ottumwa, make more
chocolate candy than do those Of any
other state in the union, sixty per cent
of the washing machines made IN the
United States are the product of Iowa
plants and there are three great
cement plants, scattered around, a
great motor car plant at Charles City
and the big Bettendorf Axle company,
maker of steel cars.
And these are only few of the
things that Iowa has to brag about.

CENSUS REPORTS ARE
COMING INTO OFFICE

Bloomfield, April 24-The census
reports are beginning to be brought
into the county auditors office by the
assessors who are this year taking
the state decennial census. Only a
few townships and towns have been
reported up-to-date, and it Is not prob
able that the complete returns will be
available before June l..
Assessor P. p. Jarvis has not COM
pleted the Bloomfield census, but be-
iieves that the city will show materi-
al increase basing this belief On what
has already been taken. Drakesville
township and town and Lick Creek
township show substantial gains.
Salt Creek has lost and 1t is probable
that several other townships will be
found to have fallen behind the marx
Of five years ago, but this will be
more than offset by the gains Of 9th
er townships and the gain in Bloom
field.

cosT OF NATIONAL DEFENSE.

Great objections are MADE 10 Ill
creasing the efficiency and ,sufficiency
of the national defenses because of the
increase in taxes which 1t is supposed
such a course would involve. Roland
G. Usher, professor of history at
Washington university and author OF
Pan Germanism" and "Pan-Ameri-
canism," delves into this phase of tn
matter in special editorial feature
which appears on this page of today's
Courier. Professor Usher holds the
opinion that it is not larger appropria-
lions that are needed, but greater wis
dom in the expenditures and probably
different military system than the
one now in vogue. He compares re-
suits obtained with given sums in the
United States and with similar sums
in France and England and Germany.
Read the article; it furnishes food for
much thought.

USING NATIONAL FORESTS.

The national forests will this year
produce revenue, from grazing per-
mits alone, Of about $1,2OO,OOO, or
100000 more than last year, says
Secretary of Agriculture Houston, af-
ter making the grazing allowances for
the season. He estimates that the
forests under his charge will this
year provide forage for 1,9S3,775 cattle
and horses, S,747,025 sheep and goats
and 64,040 swine.
These figures show an increase of
1856 cattle and horses given pastur-
age, over the number for last summer;
"a. the same time the number of sheep
and goats to be fed lis reduced 120,881.
That is, sheep are giving way to cattle
Just now more profitable investment,
in many parts of the west. This is
the first time in five years that the
number of permits for sheep has de-.
creased.
Grazing fees are higher this season
than last In the west the rates have
been fixed at 4S to 80 cents per head
per year for horses and cattle, and ~
TO IS cents for sheep and goats. In
the east the rates run from IS cents
to $1.5O for cattle, $1.10 to 81 for
horses, and 25 to 40 cents for sheep
and goats. Pigs pay from 20 to 43
cents in the west and from SO to 60
cents In the east.
The largest number of cattle Is al
lowed in district No. 2, comprising the
national forest areas in Colorado,
Wyoming, South Dakota, Nebraska,
Western Kansas. northern Minnesota
and northern Michigan. These for
ests have 522,55O cattle. Their 1897
500 sheep are second in total only to
the herds in the Utah and inter-moun-
tain district.

DIDN'T KNOW 1T BEFORE.

A Californian, evidently former
Iowan, writes to The Courier to in
quire about the various factories
which The Courier has pronounced
from time to time, the leading fac
tories Of their kind in the United
States and in some cases In the
world. Iowa has been footing his own
horn just little during the last year
or so and outsiders are beginning to
take notice. Quite naturally they
want to be shown. The Courier has
refrained from announcing the loca-
ton of the various leading factories,
because the idea was to boost Iowa
rather than any particular city or
town in Iowa, but as long as there
seems to be some question about the
the matter, The Courier will give the
following facts which are vouched for

ferent kind is the regular brand for
home consumption.

Great quantities Of sand-bags are
being used by Europeaon soldiers to
afford protection from the rife fire OF
the enemy. Shortage in the supply
of sacks caused plea to the folks at
home to send sacks instead of muf-
flers and socks which the women
have been knitting for the men at the
front. Many of the good hearted,
patriotic women responded at once,
but few of them appreciated just what
was needed and the result was that
thousands of flimsy cotton cloth,
thread stitched sacks have been sent
to the military authorities. The wom-
en- did not appreciate that sand bags,
in order to be serviceable, have to be
made out of very heavy material and
sewed with strong string.
