IN BUSINESS 81 YEARS.
II. Miller Pioneer CaImar Wagon
Manufacturer Celebrates.

1t was sure a big crowd that Fl
Miller called together in celebra-
ton of the 52nd anniversary OF
his wagon manufacturing business
Fifty two years ago when he built
the initial wagon factory he cele-
brated the occasion by giving a
free dance in the building, and now
that he has made some extensive
improvements, and newly rebuilt a
portion of it, he thought it fitting
time to have another similar cele-
bration, SO the second floor of the
rebuilt part was decorated and fitted
up as a dance hall, and Mr.. Miller
engaged two orchestras to furnish
music for the occasion, one from
Spillville played the old time dance
music for those who wished to dance
the old fashioned way, and an or
chestra of local talent, composed OF
Mr.. Williamson, Misses Gene and
Clothed Huinker, and Willis Giesen,
played music for the present time
dances. Believe us, the old time
dancing was just about as popular
that evening as the modern.
During the evening Miss Olga
Ode and Mrs. Louis DIESEL gave
some fine vocal music, accompanied
ty a chorus of voices from the au-
dsence.
Mr.. Holmes, manager of the Mil
Ter Wagon Co. and Mr.. Goheen each
made some brief and appropriate
addresses to the assembly
There were card tables for those
who did not dance.
During the evening the ladies sold
lunches, ice cream, cake and pop,
the gross receipts of which were
about $211.0O.
There We're people from con-
siderable distance, and the crowd and
doings reminded one of a 4th OF
July celebration. Mr.. Miller is no.
so old but what he can show the
young fellows how to do things sue
cessfully, and have a good time.
We hope the factory which Mr.
Miller founded and which has passed
the half century mark will double
this mark and then some.-CalmaI
Courier.

German Women to be informed fol-
Not Registering.

Washington, July S.-A number
of German women are to be arrested
soon and interned for evident evasion
of the government regulation requir-
ing enemy alien women to register
with police or postmasters. Depart
ment of justice officials explained to-
day that although most women who
failed to register when the period
closed last Wednesday now are per-
mitted to enroll if found reasons for
the delinquency are presented, some
cases have developed in which it is
apparent women avoided the regis
tration. A few of these already have
been under suspicion of cont-ihut,
ing to enemy propaganda.

Automobiles in Collision.

A head-on motor collision took
place on the Ossian Calmar road
somewhere between the Wangsness
and Brookner farm homes Saturday
night about nine o'clock.
Kent Larson was driving his Ford
to the dance at the Knutson place at
Calmar and Ole Flaskerud was COM
ing towards Ossian in his new Over
land. They came together and both
cars suffered some damages. The
left front wheel was taken from
Kent's car, the radiator somewhat
damaged, the fender bent and lesser
damages sustained. The Overland
Jared little better, although it had
to be towed in for repairs to the
Figge garage.
The roads were slippery from Sat
urday's rains, and Kent believes that
Flaskerud lost control of his car
Kent had driven out as far as the
road would permit, so tbs said, which
left the entire roadbed to Ole.
Both cars remained on the high
way for several days. Flaskerud' s
was towed in Monday, and on Tues.
day Kent induced Flaskerud to tow
the Ford to some garage to have il
repaired. Flaskerud had it taken
to the Krysan garage in Calmar, and
will pay the bill. While the cars
remained on the highway, accessor'
les to the value of thirty dollars o,
more were taken from Kent'scar--
'Ossian Bee.

Train Hits Motor Truck.

AS Ole Moen was driving the I'm
ion Produce Company's motor truck
across the Rock Island tracks Mon
day afternoon, between five and six
o'clock, the truck was hit by Rock
Island engine and dragged about a
rod, reducing the windshield and
the glass on either side of the seat
to small pieces, bending the spindle
on the left front wheel, tearing off
the left fender and otherwise dam
aging it.
Ole was accompanied by Mant An
Gerson. They had been to the depot
and were driving up town. A Mil
waukee freight train was just pull
ling out for the west and when 1t
cleared the crossing at the depot Ole
proceeded to cross it. Just as the
front wheels of the truck were over
the first rail, the Rock Island freight
from the east pulled in, and a second
later there was a crash, the engine
hitting the truck a little to the rear
of the motor engine. Mant was Sit
ting on the side where the engine
struck, and the broken glass severe
ly cut his head and face while the
conclusion of the collision painfully
bruised his left shoulder and arm.
1t required several stitches to close
the wound ON Mant's head. --ossian

To have the pains and aches of a

Blind. Does Gardening.

Glenwood, Ia, July fisherman
Hill, a citizen of this city, although
totally blind, has become a successful
gardener, and his work is the adj
miration OF the city and of all who
have seen his gardens and the man.
His gardens occupy plots of
ground which would have been ne
elected this year but for his genius
and desire to do his best for the ma
ton. He seems to have been blessed
with a sixth sense, and he can tell
in just what part of his potato plots
the vines are doing the best. He has
a most promising crop of beans. He
directs the hoeing done by his son
and daughter and seems to know in
tuitively when it is done right By
feeling about his vegetables he can
tell weed from vegetable and he
moves about and weeds his garden.
Mr.. Hills blindness is due to an
accident which befel him when he
was employed at the Iowa Institu-
, ton for the Feeble Minded located
here. A claim was made for relief
in the way of a state pension but
this was denied him, although his
many friends made as good a fight
for him as they could.
Mr.. Hills garden contains prac-
tically all the best known vege-
tables and he has two city lots OF
beans alone. He has a son in the
service.

German Talk Beats a jew.

Waterloo, July S.-One Waterloo
Jury apparently was with Gov. Hard
ing in frowning upon the use of Ger
man language. At any rate 1T didn't
take six men long in a justice court
to determine upon a verdict after
learning that the plaintiff had been
beaten out of a commission because a
couple of friends of the defendant
had slipped him the information in
German that he could get more for
the material.
The German farmer lives near
GilbertVille. The plaintiff in the
case is a Russian Jew who under
stands a smattering of German. The
latter negotiated for the purchase OF
400 gunny sacks at seven cents each,
which would allow him profit OF
five cents each, or $40 for bringing
them to Waterloo. While he was
getting ready to load them, the
farmers friends, speaking in Ger
man, told him he was selling too
cheap, that he could get at least 10
cents for them in Waterloo. The
result was the farmer baked right
there and refused to deliver the
goods.
During the testimony of the Jew
it developed he lost the sale thru the
other party to the transaction using
German, SO the jury rendered YER
dict in the Jews favor for SIS.

They cannot treat them with con-

them with the fact that they had not

of American troops in France, as they
had boosted they would do. No, the
pirates have not made much Roadway

have been able to get few innocent

SEARS-ROEBUCK CALLED.
Government Tells, Them To Quit
SHINING People.

Washington, d. c., July S.-Sears,
Roebuck & Company, Chicago mail
order house, of which julius Rosen-
valid is president, has been ordered
by the federal trade commission to
cease what the commission terms
unfair methods" of competition.
1t was announced last Monday.
Chief of the complaints by the
commission-which were all admit
ted by the corporation-was the
practice of advertising sugar for sale
at prices less than its competitors.
The corporation acknowledged that
during the latter half of 1915 it re-
ceived S7S0,000 in receipts from the
sale of sugar, but that the same sales
were in reality made at a loss of
$196,000 This loss, however, was
made up thru the fact that sugar
purchases were included in com
bination sales" on which profit
was made. Those familiar with the
trade knew that customers of the
catalog house were being fooled on
the sugar prices, as it is one of the
old catalog house tricks to sell
staple article below cost, but make
it up on something else and at the
same time try to make the customers
believe they are making a profit on
the sugar item so as to convey the
impression that country dealers
are charging their customers high
prices. The practices ordered stopped
by the commission were:
Circulating catalogues containing
advertisements of sugar for sale
! wherein it is represented that the
company is able to sell sugar at a
lower rate than competitors.
Selling or offering to sell sugar
below cost.
Circulating catalogues containing
representation to the effect that its
competitors do not deal honestly or
fairly with their customers.

Iron Mines Have Closed Down.

The extensive plant of the Missis-
sippi Valley Iron Co. at Waukon has
ceased operations for an indefinite
period because of the coal situation,
which is becoming more tense on ac-
count of war conditions. The plant
uses vast lot of soft coal and re-
quires an excellent quality for opera
ting its gas producers and ore reduc-
ton process, and the coal restrictions
are becoming such that there is no as
surance of the quality being obtained
much longer.
AS the company has some extensive
fields Of ore in northern Minnesota
that can be mined with steam shovels
and the ore transported south via
river to the vicinity of the coal fields
for reduction, it was deemed practical
to devote their energies to that field
of operations until fuel conditions
were more promising than at present.
Consequently the two steam SHOW
els will be shipped from the plant
here to the Minnesota ore field, and
Supt. Erwin and a number of the
employees will go there to open it up.
1t is not believed that any of the
married men will take their families
with them. Nevertheless fully 100
men have been let out of employment
here at present and their payroll of
close to $4,000 a month will be mis-
sed. AS the company has over half
million dollars invested here in their
plant and railroad, there is no likli-
hood of the suspension being any
longer than conditions warrant

Kaiser's Picture Cost Them $500.

A government secret agent who
visited the city yesterday brought
with him a picture of the Kaiser and
his family which he unearthed at the
home of some German sympathizers
near Oelwein. When at the same
place several weeks ago the family
informed him that the picture had
been destroyed sixteen years ago.
On his recent visit, however, the
agent surprised the family and found
the photograph, in handsome frame
hanging in a conspicuous place on
the wall of the living room. He
seized the picture and caused the
family to pay $500 fine. They paid
the fine but Immediately demanded
the return of the picture Mason

Let Farm Go to Weeds.

In Grundy county they are much
concerned about an S0-acre farm that
has been permitted to grow up to
weeds this year because the owner
could not agree with any renter as to
the price per acre. He wanted S12
and no one could afford to pay that,
considering that there are no i'm
provements on the land. To what
foolish ends some persons carry their
