now being purchased. This will prob.
ably be done this fall. The two story
building now occupied by the state and
dairy department east OF the state
house will, however, be lett standing
for while.

The executive countil expects to let
the contract soon for a retaining wall
on the road which is to encircle the
south half Of the state capitol grounds
and which will skirt the bluff overlook
ing the valley of the Des Moines river.
This road will be prepared this fall and
the contract for the paving let early in
the spring.
Workmen are now completing the
mall to the west Of the state houes
which is wide pavement with walks
