Now Selling for $t575

Chicago, Oct. 7.--Unless the price of
bltuminous coal takes sudden
drop the Iowa farmers will use large
percentage OF thsi years corn crop
for fuel" p. r. Howard, president OF
the American Farm Bureau Fedora.
ton, said this today after delegation
of farmers from Elwood, Iowa, notifi-
ed him that they. had planned to use
corn for fuel, Mr.. Howard continued,
THE pr zee OF soft coal today is $50
ton on the railroad track in Elwood.
1t costs nan average $3.50 ton to
deliver to the farmers. The Iowa ele-
vators are offering 80 cents bushel
for corn.
"A bushel Of corn averages about
seventy pounds. The farmer receives
about 55 cents bushel for his corn
at the elevators when freight charges
and other incidentals are deducted.
This brings the price of corn on the
ear to about $I5.75 a ton.
Corn possesses the same amount of
heat units as coal. The Iowa farmers
have come to the conclusion that II
is much cheaper TO burn their corn in
stead of soft. coal this winter de-
plore the economic conditions that ere
ate such possibility"

PLAN CAMPAIGN

FoRDs. Sept. so.-At a meeting
OF the Democratic leaders of this
place last night plans were made
and a definite issue was formed on
which to base their campaign for
their candidate for township COM
mitteeman. Dennis Ryan. the party
candidate said hat he had been re-
quested by many persons Of this
vicinity to enter the contest for the
local office. and he believed that the
present representatives were not
giving the people and taxpayers a
square deal" He said, as did the
others that one man cannot make
the tar rates lower, hut at least an
effort can be made to let the people
know why and how the high taxes of
this vicinity are possible. The candi-
date stated that it was his purpose to
do all in his power to lower the tax
rate, IL elected. and that he would
do just what the people thought he
should as a representative for their
interests.
The leaders, under the instructions
of the candidate. excepted the slogan
of "a square deal for the taxpayers
as the issue and added that tax
alton with a little more representa-
ton" would not do this vicinity any

TRY TO PUT MAXWELL AVE.,
FORDS, IN BETTER SHAPE

Dy opecidi correspondent.
FORDS, Sept. 30.-Due to the fact
that there has been complaints made
as to the condition of Maxwell ave-
nue.. an effort is being made to have
this street put in shape so that 1t can
be used to better advantage. AS 1t Is
now there is very little chance to use
It as a public road. The trench is
still untitled. and no connections have
been put into the houses. The sewer
has been layed, but no effort is being
made to complete the work.
Contractor William Ryan has had
much difficulty with this sewer line,
and finds that 1t is all but impossible
to get men to work on this kind of
a job. However If the contractor
cannot get men to finish the work,
the people feel that it is up to the
township representative to take steps
to remedy this matter. There was
a case where a woman nearly fell
in the open trench trying to get into
her home. It is necessary to jump
over the opening. unless one walks
a block to get around to the houses.
AS 1t is, it is dangerous. School child
rea pass by this trench every day, and
persons delivering provisions are
forced to walk a distance or jump
the ditch.
The people seem to feel that this
condition has existed long enough,
and that some effort on the part of
their representatives should be made
to furnish a remedy for this matter.
1t is felt that a lack of interest Ia
being shown by all concerned in
matters of this kind. and hat q con-
tractor has his own way about COM
pleting a contract for the township.
