there. one of the merchants Of that

they were paying eighty cents per

one hundred cars Of spuds will be

Five hundred dollars an acre
Iowa farm land will be common
thing within the near future &C
cording to experienced dealers in farm
property in this state who have fol-
lowed advances in values during the
last quarter of a century. E. r. ray
Tor, editor Of the 'Traer Star-Clipper.
in a recent editorial recalls predic-
lions made ten years ago by J. r.
Dalton of Manson to the effect that
in ten years land in Calhoun county
would sell for 5000 an acre and that
in twenty years land in that section
would bring $500 an acre. The first
estimate fell short by $50 of prevailing
prices, and with half the time elapsed
for the second prediction the predict
ed price is half reached. The PalO
Alto Reporter has announced the sale
OF a highly improved farm southwest
of Cylinder for 1925 an acre and a
deal involving the sale of more than
300 acres Of one farm near Creston
for $500 an acre cash was recently
negotiated In his editorial. Mr.. Tay-
lor said in part: "The Editor of the
Star Clipper has sold land for twenty
five years He began when Tama
county farms could be had for $33
to $50 per acre. Every year he has
heard fellows predict that the values
had reached the top. Others who
were urged to. buy said they would
wait, as prices would be lower III Il
year or two. But all the time land
went up and it continues to advance.
The $500 mark is here for the best
farms, but the end is not yet. The
writer bought Il Tama county farm
the other day because he believes
there will be a sharp advance the
coming year Farmers are making
more money today on $500 lapd than
they did on 500. land. "A renter can
pay $40 per acre now easier than
he could pay S. twenty years ago.
Some day our children will see the
best 1ama county farms sell for $500

BEAR AT SCHOOL.
STAMPEDES GIRLS

Stamford, Conn, Nov.i ia six
months old female black bear broke
up a session of the fashionable Low
Haywood private school for girls at
Shippan Point yesterday. The bear
had been at large since Monday, and
exaggerated reports about its size and
ferocity had terrorized Shippan Point
residents.
The bear cub was the mascot of an
army cantonnent football eleven
when s. Merritt Shedding of Stamford
purchased it at Yale bowl on Nov. 8
and brought it here. Mr.. Shielding
went to Chicago, leaving the bear in
charge Of Capt. George A. Jenkins.
The cub escaped Monday afternoon,
spent the night in tree, roamed
about the Point all Tuesday and at
night at 8 o'clock attempted to hug
Davis Robins and his sister, Children
of Thomas Robins, a member Of the
National Advisory Board. Chief
Brennan and eight armed policemen
beat the bushes sew eral hours, but
failed to find the animal.
After calling yesterday morning at
the Low-Heywood school and sending
the pupils and teachers scampering
for shelter, the cub went to sleep in
flower bed on the Robins place and
was captured.

NAVAL HEADS IN
NEW AGREEMENT

Washington, Nov. 15-Secretary of
the Navy Daniels said yesterday that
Admiral Benson and the several naval
specialists who accompanied him to
Europe had been in constant con-
sultation with the British Admiralty
and fleet heads already ,have reached
agreements on several points.
Admiral Benson took with him
plans, suggestions and views of Amer.
lean experts and the results of some
experiments which have been made
on this side. His purpose Is to dis
cuss all naval questions fully with the
British and French authorities as well
as in the Inter-Al1ied Conference.
The plan is to have the fullest pos
sible discussion and interchange of
views. In this connection Mr.. Dan
iels said that the British and French
had given the United States freely
everything they had tried in carrying
on the campaign against the submar-
inc and other naval operations.
Admiral Benson has authority to
enter into agreements for naval opera
tions. Unless problem Of the great
est Importance should develop he
would not be called upon to COM
municate in advance with Washing
ton.

Germany Releases Men Taken
by Ocean Raider.
JUST MISSES STRONG NOTE
Peremptory Demand for Liberation OF
seventy.two Men Had Been Pre-
pared At Washington.

Washington, Feb. 16.-Announce.
ment in a Berlin dispatch received
that American sailors, brought into
Berlin on the prize ship Yarrowdale
an prisoners Of war, have been freed
by the German government brought a
lessening Of the tension felt in off
cial circles.
| A peremptory demand had been pre-.
pared by the department of state with
the approval Of President Wilson for
the release of the men held by Ger
many.
It was ready to be sent to the Span.
ish ambassador at Berlin for transmits.
, sion to the German government. There
, were rumors that the note was on its
way. This was officially denied.
The state department has gathered
data on the treatment of German sail
ore in American ports and it is believ.
ed it was intended to include this in
formation in the note to Berlin.
Although this action has been TAX
en-, according to dispatches, there was
no disposition to admit that the sit
, uation as regards the submarine war.
fare has been relieved in the slightest
of its critical aspect
The matter Of the freeing Of the
American sailors is regarded as en-
tirely beside the issue of illegal u
boat operations.
Many responsible officials of the ad-
ministration have come to the conclu-
sion that unless there is a prompt and
decided change in the general atti-
, tude Of Germany toward the inter
ests of the United States the appear
ance Of President Wilson before con-
gress to ask authority to afford protec-
ton to American lives and property
is only matter of days.
Any doubt as to the ruthless char
acter of the new submarine campaign
and its violation of neutral rights
long since has disappeared and the sit
uation is made more and more grave
daily by aggravating incidents.
President Wilson himself still was
moving slowly in order that no seri-
GUS step be taken in advance Of an
unmistabable demonstration Of Ger
many's disregard Of the interests and
rights of the United States.
He IS relying only on official infor-
nation.

The greatest surprise was manifest

ships had cleared for allied ports in
the face of Germany's frank announce.

1t was gravely remarked that the
ship owners must take frivolous
