Judging from the countless prepara

Thinness and weakness are usually

need more phosphate than is contained

there is nothing that will supply this

AN IMPORTANT
FACTOR IN CUTTING
SHOE EXPENSE

MANY months Of comfort at little
expense is the way Charles A. Pear
son OF San Diego California, sums up
his experience with Ne5lin Soles Mr..
Pearson had two pairs Of shoes re-
soled with Ne0lin Soles, and after
wearing them for twenty months
writes Il will have to get new shoes
sometime, but so far as the soles are
concerned, that time seems as far
distant as when they were new
This is typical of the experience
millions are having with Ne0lin Soles.
Created by Science to be durable,
flexible and waterproof, these soles
are an important factor in cutting
shoe expense. You can get them on
new shoes for the whole family, and
for re-soling. They are made by The
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., Akron,
Ohio who also make Wingfoot Heels
guaranteed to outwear all other heels.

Bedford, July 1s-E. II. simpson, of
this county. bears the unusual distinc-
ton of still living on the farm In this
county which his father homesteaded
from the government In 1856, ana
where he was born In 1857. No spot on
earth would seem as much like home
sweet home to this veteran Iowa farm
er and live stock raiser and as re-
suit Mr.. Simpson is known to rarely
leave home for any length Of time and
then generally to visit some live stock
market TO sell or buy stock.
After participating In some OF the
hardest fought battles Of the war, Mr..
Simpsons son and three OF his four
farm hands have returned from over
seas, one Of the men dying from FLU
while at sea en- route to France.
1.-THE absence OF all of my best farm
assistants who were at war, surely
made a difference in my farm opera

Simpson said, adding. but I was glad
to have them to send on such a mis-

at keeping the steers In line across the
land, but the man who handled the
cumbersome pillow turned them at the
long end of the furrow. Now we have
modern riding implements and ma
chinery."
Becoming reminiscent Mr.. Simpson
talked of other conditions which the
pioneers Of this country endured. and
said: The Iowa pioneers, like the ear
ly settlers in other undeveloped coun-
tries, endured a great many hardships
but were happy thru it ALL Many peo-
pie in the rural districts died Of the
then comparatively new diseases thru
lack Of proper medicines and care.
With the doctor living many miles
away and travelling on horseback it
was hard to notify him in case Of sick
ness. When he did come he rarely
knew the nature Of the ailment and
how to treat 1t, consequently the pa
tient would often die. My father thus
died Of typhoid fever when was only
years Of age, and am confident that
had the attending physician known in
time what was the trouble and had the
proper medicines, he would have re-
covered from the attack"

.The failure OF two counties TO vote

Tama, July 1S.-The Des Moines pa
pers and correspondents have been
kidding themselves and trying to make
an impression over the state with lo'
of bunk about the possible change In
the routing of the Lincoln highway
across Iowa. Inasmuch as the Lincoln
highway Is a national highway, not
merely a state road, and was planned
and is largely financed by public spir-
tied citizens OF Detroit, Mich, located
over a hundred miles from the nearest
point on the highway, IL can be under
stood that the officials of the Lincoln
highway are not influenced by any
such small town stuff.
No Change Says Goodell.
In order TO put the public straight in
this matter the following statement
of Tama. who is state consul for Iowa
for the Lincoln Highway Association.
and who is in position TO know the
facts. Mr.. Goodell says:
In 1913. when the Lincoln highway
was established, the several routes
across Iowa We're given consideration
and IN spite of the fact that several
large cities in the state offered large
bonuses for it's location, the route, as
it is now laid out, was chosen as the
best and most satisfactory thru route

change in the Lincoln highway thru
Iowa has at any time been contem-
plated. except those minor changes

Hard Roads-Report Favorable.
Special to Times Republican.
Ogden, July 1S.-Greene county will
vote on the hard road proposition July
%. At a meeting OF the citizens of
that county a special committee was
appointed to investigate the hard sur
faced road proposition in other Sec
tions of the country and make a re-
port as to the results obtained with
hard roads.
The committee visited in Illinois.
Wisconsin and Michigan and drove
over several hundred miles of paved
roads, The material used in most of
the roads over which the committee
travelled. was concrete and universal
satisfaction with it was the expression
of the highway commissioners in the
counties visited.
The cost of putting down concrete
roads averaged about $4,000 per mile
at the present price of materials. w.
F. Cavanaugh. highway commissioner
OF Milwaukee county, Wisconsin, said
that he expected the concrete roads
built there TO last t1irty-fiv or forty
years at the least. No kind of traffic
is barred on the roads there, and no.
where could the committee see that
the road had been injured by heavy
traffic This is quite remarkable when
it is considered that many heavy
trucks and tractors pass over the
roads, which are near Milwaukee.
Equal satisfaction with concrete as
a road material was found in Michi-
gan and Illinois where 200 miles Of
paved road were inspected.

Aeroplane Factory To Be Erected A

OWN wy
Sioux City, July ls.-Plans for av-
iation development here were laid be-
fore the city council yesterday by w.
T. Cook. aeronautical engineer. who
has started an airplane factory in the
old Interstate brewery.
Mr.. Cook, who built airplanes for
the government during the war, pre-.
dicted that planes will be as common
as automobiles in the near future and
tl,at farmers will be the first 10 l,uy
and use them.
ut Is imperative that the city estab.
Iish municipal aviation field" declar-
ed Mr.. Cook. AT the present time
there are more than 800 airplanes this
side of Chicago, and the number will
increase rapidly. Wideawake cities are
establishing fields at the present time
and Sioux City should do SO within the
next thirty days"
Mr.. Cook said he expected to organ
lie a corporation WITH capital stock
of S1O0, 900. He said business men
were anxious to invest in the airplane
industry and that he would have no
trouble obtaining capital.
He said he will manufacture a plane
to sell to the public for about $1,000,
and that it will be more popular than
the automobile. Farmers, he said, have
plenty Of room for landing on their
fields and meadows.
Mr.. Cook asked the council to OBJ
tain a field and build the necessary
hangers as soon as possible. He said
he will accept a contract for five or
ten years to maintain and improve
such a field. He plans to establish a
flying school as soon as the factory
begins production.
Mr.. Cook asserted he has designed
flying boat which will be completed
in the near future, and which will
take off" and land on the rivers here.
The boat will operate as passenger
carrier and will have room for at least
four persons. he said. The cost Of the
boat will be about $4,000, MI. Cook

PREDICTS BIG APPLE CROP.
Iowa To Produes 2s7,o 900 Barrels Com
pared To fo1 900 In 1918.

Council Bluffs, July 18.-Frank 8.
Pinney, field agent for the federal hu-
reau Of crop estimates at Council
Bluffs, states that the special com>
mercial apple crop report forecasts
production Of 2S7,0G0 barrels. compared
with 1O1 900 barrels last year.
In the counties Of Fremont, Mills.
Pottawattamie and Harrison. in south
western Iowa, or better known to the
apple growers as the Missouri region
counties, it is probable that produc-
ton Of $4,000 barrels will be the gift
of nature, compared with only $4,000
barrels last year. Most sprayed or
chards are in excellent condition in
the vicinity of Hamburg and Council
Bluffs.
Indications are that only Is to 40
per cent of a crop will be harvested
in the apple producing sections in
southeastern Iowa, in the counties OF
Lee, Van Buren,, Wapello. Mahaska,
and Scott. Likely a late freeze and
scab have combined IL reduce the pro-
duction in southeastern Iowa. Cank-
er worms in unsprayed orchards in the
southern portion Of the state have
