NEW IOWA PACKING PLANT.
So 1000, 900 Packing Plant at Des
Nloines-C. Nj. Axes, OF Leon,
a Director.

For years it has been great
wonder why the Iowa hogs and cat
tie were mostly shipped to Chicago
ard other cities and then the meat
shipped back to Iowa for consump-
ton. A new $2,00o,ooo packing firm
which will be known as the Iowa
Packing Co., taking over the packing
plant Of the Des Moines Packing Co,
and immense additions will be made
to the present plant, so that it will
have a CAPACITY of 200 head OF cat
tie and 10000 hogs each week, en-
ploying about $50 men. Iowa is the
duction of hogs the value of the
iowa hog being $137, ,739,O0O. Des
Moines has the best railroad facil-
tiles in the west, and great saving
in freight and shrink can be made
by shipping to Des Moines instead OF
Chicago, and it is figured that nearly
100000 annually would be saved
there being a difference of 10 cents
per hundred pounds between ship
ment from the average Iowa county
to Des Moines instead of Chicago.
The new packing company pro
poses to place considerable OF its

packing house products and to

will be represented by directors, and
Mr.. c. M. Axes, the we'll known
stockman of Leon, has been named
as one of the twenty-five directors OF
the company, and has taken block
of stock, for he knows what real
packing house at Des Moines, would
mean to the stock raisers OF Iowa.
Fred T. Fuller, who is president
of the newly organized company,

Auto and Team in Crash.

A serious auto accident occurred on
the county line road two miles west
of Weldon last Sunday evening about
9 o'clock, when big Willyss-knightr
touring car owned by Mr.. Stacy, OF
Osceola, crashed into a. team and
buggy driven by William Bahr and
his brother John, of near Van Vert.
In the auto were five young men
from Osceola, Gerald Smith, Leonard
and L. Z. Crist jr. They were driv-
ing west and were going at a pretty
fair speed when they met the team
and buggy of Mr. Bahr. The auto
was on the extreme right hand side
of the road, and the tracks showed
made to stop the car, but Mr.. Bahr
and brother had just driven out on
the road from field on the north
side of the road where they were get
ting ready to start threshing Monday
morning, and had turned east on the
wrong side of the road. The auto
crashed into the team. demollshlng
the buggy, and the wreck Of the bug
gy caught in the wheel of the auto
and it turned sharply across the road
to the south and struck heavy
cedar fence post, and turned over,
but none of the occupants were In
jured aside from few bruises and
slight cuts from the broken glass in
the wind shield. The only damage
to the car was smashed headlights
and tenders, and after being turned
right side up, was able to be taken
to Osceola under it's own power.
William Bahr, who was in. the
buggy, was quite seriously injured,
sustaining a bad cut and slight frac-
ture of the skull, and was also in
jured in the chest. He was taken to
Weldon, where DR.. Jamison gave
him medical attention. His brother
escaped injury. The team broke
away from the wreck of the buggy,
and ran quite a distance, one of the
horses being badly cut where he was
struck by the fender of the car.

week harvester and threshed a ten
acre tract of spelt, securing 70 bush

would make the crop bring him $9S
an acre. Spelt is a species of grain
much used for breadstuff in Germany
and Switzerland, and is sometimes
called German wheat. 1t grows like
wheat, but the kernels have husks
on them which do not come OFF when
threshed, there being two grains in
each kernel. 1t is softer than Ameri-
can wheat, and is also of great value
as chicken feed. Mr.. Hodge also
secured an average of 80 bushels of
oats from a part of his farm.
