CITY FARMERS HOLD
A PROTEST MEET|N:
Claim That For the Taxes They Pay
They Do Not Receive Adequate
Fire Protection.
WILL MEET AGAIN NEXT MONDAY

Possibly one of the most enthusi-
astic meetings of farmers held in this
city recently was the gathering al
the store of the Farmers Co-opera.
tive company, Thursday.
The meeting was a protest by the
farmer residents within the city linn
its, who complain that they are being
taxed for city purposes without se-
ceiving the conveniences of the city
and point particularly to the fire pro-
lection.
1t is claimed that should a fire oc-
cur at farm residence, it would
be almost physically impossible fOl
the fire department to reach the blaze
in time to do any good.
Speakers who were present advO-
Gated that the farmers should organ
| ize and cecede, or else have bills pre-
scented in the next session of the legis-
lature authorizing them to withdra "
from the city, or measure which
would allow a lower assessment val
uation to be placed on farm land
One speaker who paid his respect
to the assessor. Herman E. Kruger
said that that gentleman was given
the budget and told to raise the money
necessary to run the city government
from the taxable property, and the
belief was expressed that he did his
work without Partially.
Another speaker said that the farm
ers were protesting against remain
ing within the city limits on account
Of their not being able to plat and
sell their property for city building
lot purposes, there being no demand
for their lands along that line.
The meeting developed sentiment
that if they must remain in the city
should be used to purchase a chemical
fire apparatus on an auto truck, in
charge of an experienced chauffeuE
which would enable the operator to
reach farm property quickly and eff
fectually fight an incipient blaze.
Mayor Kading and Assessor Krue-
ger attended the meeting and deliv-
cred addresses.
A temporary organization was form
ed by electing R. w. Young as chair
man and j. A. Skalitzky as secretary
treasurer.
Another meeting has been called for
next Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock
in the city hall.

1t was an association of gentlemen

trade. so to speak, and who have been
connected with it ali their lives, who
first gave to the world Castoria, which
as everyone knows is a pleasant and
effective remedy for the ailments of
infants and children. 1t has always
been recognized as meritOrious pre-
paration, and it's reward has been the
greatest popularity ever enjoyed by
any remedy ever put upon the market
attained, not by famboyant advertis-
ing or appeals to ignorance or vulgar
prejudice, but by inherent merit. All
physicians recommend it, and many
very many, prescribe it.
Many parents call in the family ply
sician. Many other parents take ad-
vantage Of what the physician told
them when he was first called in con-
sultation. All good family physicians
say: Give the children Castoria.' -
Healthy parents know this remedy of
old, for they took it themselves as
children 1t was more than thirty
