Judges Deemer and Evans of the su-
preme court of Iowa are candidates for
re election. No real opposition has de-
veloped against them, none is likely
to develop that will greatly embarras SIS
the candidates. OF either. Both men
have records pleasing TO the bar and
the public of the state.
These men are excellent jurists. NO
two men stand higher in the estimation
of the bar than they. They reflect
credit upon the state and have the
trust of the people.
It is hard to find any good reason
shat may be urged against their re-
tention where they are serviceabie.
Both desire to be returned. They are
satisfactory. Why change?
The Marshall county bar approves
by resolutions the candidates. Of both.
1t is practically the conclusion of the
bars of every county where no local
candidacy intervenes. 1t is not easy
to see where any Improvement could
be made by election of any probable
candidate IN the place Of either.

THE PEANUT.

The peanut Is an humble and I'M
ostertatious member o. the great Mutt
family, which has become on of the
principal industries of this rich and
fertile country. It is one of the most
nutritious limitations OF real food that
has ever sprung from the soil into the
capacious maw Of the American tour
list.
The peanut was introduced into this
country by the late P. T. Barnum. who
liked TO stand in his justly celebrated
menagerie and toss a few peanuts with
the shuciss on into the appealing face
of the Himalayan orang- outang and
watch the expression of gratitude
which fitted DER the countenance of
the latter. Mr.. Barnum found that this
was cheaper than buying baled hay and
produced less asthma to the square
inch. so he allowed all who bought re-
served seats to iisburse peanuts to
such animals as had sound, drain
tiled constitution. Among these is the
elephant, and one OF the most inspiring
sights that ever caught the artists
fancy Is that Of a solemn, double
chinned elephant running his trunk a
few feet down his neck and searching
anxiously for piece % peanut shell
which has lodged behind one tonsii.
For a. great many years. the peanut
WAS confined solely TO feeding circus
patrons and travelling men who had
exceeded their expense account. Some
travelling men found that by eating in
a free and explosive manner OF the
semi-roas.ed peanut. they could save
money and get along with less sleep.

Will the time never come when we

to that there are plenty Of places that

BRING THE PIGS AND HENS.
IWinterset Madisonian.1

What has become of the old fash
toned farmer, who. when he moved to
town. moved his chickens, his pigs,
and his cows? We used to hear II
said that retired farmers were. as a
class. opposed to public improvements
In the town adopted as their home. II
that was ever true, it's the farthest
from the truth now. The average far
mer reads more magazines and Is
better posted on public affairs and the
worlds events, than the average city
dweller. When he moves to town. he
no longer looks for acreage. where he
can work as hard as he did when on
the farm, but he looks for modern
home, where he can enjoy the comforts
that he has earned by years Of hard
labor on the farm. We can't speak
for other communities, but the class
of farmers that are moving into Win
terset are a valuable addition to our
citizenship and we wish there We're
more of them. Winterset has splen-
did schools, good churches, public
spirited and wide awake business men.
and a congenial citizenship. We have
most Of the advantages Of the large
cities, and none Of the disadvantages.
If you are going to move to town,
come to Winterset. You'll find good
town and a warm welcome.
