the worry. When the blood becomes

nourishment and sleeplessness, head

occur. The victim becomes worried

to the coming meeting. All organ

Associated Packing Company with
Headquarters at Des MOines,
Being Formed by Farmers
of State.

The Associated Packing Company,
a $2,0OO,OOO organization with
headquarters at Des MOines is being
formed. With this same organiza-
ton will be stock yards plant with
capital of $1,O00,O0O.
The company, which will be COM
posed of farmers, will have plant
at Des Moines covering an area of
forty acres. At the beginning of
operations the plant Will have ca
pacity of $4,000 hogs week, 2,1OO
cattle and 2,100 sheep. Right from
the start it is planned to increase
the capacity but figures given repre-
sent what the plant will be able to
take care of at the time of opening.
1t is pointed out that Des MOines
is the logical place for such a plant.
There are eighteen railroads run
ming into the city which would give
the farmers of the central states ex-
cellent railroad facilities. The Dlant
at Des Moines will mean a consider
able saving for Decatur county ship
pers. The rate on hogs to Des
Moines is 106 cents hundred and
the rate to Chicago is 23.5 cents a
hundred. A similar saving will al
so be realized on cattle and sheep.
The local representative in De-
catur county is H. w. Bentley Of Des
Moines, and he is meeting with
much encouragement in this county.
The farmers in Decatur county real
ize the organization of the company
at Des MOines will mean much to
stock shippers all over the state, and

Mrs. Anna Short.

Anna Short was born in Abing-

died Feb. 2S, 1919, at the home of
her daughter, Mrs J. E. Meacham,
116 N. Jefferson St., Ottumwa, Iowa.
She united with the First Metho-
dist church in Abingdon at the age
of twelve and has lived in that faith
ever since. She went to Ottumwa
and has made her home there until
her death. She was the mother of
seven children, six of whom pre-
ceded her in death, the only one
surviving her being Mrs. J. E..
Meacham, who has given her every
possible attention during the latter
years of her life. She lived to the
very remarkable age of nine-six.
Her life covered period of years
which tell wonderful stories of pro-
gress. During the years of her
activity friends tell of her often
leaving her own work and interests
to minister to those in need. At her
request she was brought to the
Methodist church in Leon and the
bell tolled ninetv-six times, one for
each year of her long life. Services

Don't Wait for Income Tax Collector.

The special income tax collector
assigned for work this year in De-
catur county. will not be in Decatur
county until March 25th, being at
Van Vert four days, March 25th to
2Sth, then comes to Leon March
29th and remains until April 18th,
then spends a week at Lamont,
AS the announcement has been
made that all returns must be filed
with the department not later than
March 18th, to avoid the penalty.
The Reporter editor wrote to Col
lector Louis Murphy, and asked how
returns were to be filed if the deputy
collector did not come here until
March 25th. Replying collector
Murphy advises us there are only 81
deputies available for field work, in
the SO counties of Iowa, and it has
been impossible to arrange for them
to cover all territory before March
18th. The collector who comes here
after that date will assist those who
are not able to make out their re-
turns without his help, and many
are habitually late in making re-
turns, but this will not release them
from paying a penalty for not nav
ing their returns filed before the
18th. The penalty for failing to
make return on time is a. fine of not
more than $1,000 and in addition
25 per cent of the amount of tax
due. so it behOoves everyone who
has to make an income tax return to
have it filled out and filed before
March 18th.
