Farm organizations are endeavoring
to solve the money stringency by or.

Iof borrowing from the banks individ.

communities are securing money by
notes signed by all members. In some
cases farmers who have ready cash are
loaning it to others who are in need OF
funds and who have had difficulty with
their banks. The low price of corn and
oats has created a big demand for cat

The farmers in hundreds of commun
tiles in Iowa are providing electricity
| for their homes. The most popular
method is by high tension lines eminat-
ing from some central plant in town
or city. One of the largest movements
on foot is the extension of a line from
Iowa Falls in Hardin county, to Rein
beck, in Grundy county. Already six
crews of men are at work wiring the
houses and farm buildings and a great
deal Of material is on hand the rest to
be shipped early enough that the line
will be supplying customers by Decem-
ber 1st. With it's thirty miles of main
line, 95 patrons and the capacity to
care for twice as many, 1t will be the
largest farmers line constructed in
Iowa. The company was formed on
the basis of eighty eight shares at $400
each, or about $35 900, but 1t Is the en-
gineer's estimate that 1t will cost but
$4,000 to build the line. This is ex.
elusive of all wiring in the houses and
farm buildings. and most Of them are
asking provisions for electric stoves
and motors to run farm machinery and
electrically operated pumps for water
systems. From the power house at the

modating hundreds of farmers In south.

mission line is to be constructed from
KeolSuk to Burlington by way Of Fort
Madison. This will make three lines
|connecting the two cities. Two are on
the Illinois side of the river and the
new one on the Iowa side. The object
of so many lines is to guard against in
terruption of service because of light
ming. On several occasions lightning
has put both lines on the Illinois side
out of commission at the same time. 1t
| is believed that another line on the
Iowa side several miles from those on
the Illinois side will not be affected by
the same bolt of lightning.
Independent telephones lines in Iowa
have won a great victory recently in
that the Bell telephone people have
conceded the justness of their claims
for u larger commission in handling
long distance tolls. There are approx
imately 800 independent telephone ex-
changes in Iowa, and this new order
means saving of 100000 a year to
these toll stations. The increase in
commissions to the independent COM
Ipanies is, the result of negotiations COW
ering several weeks between the Bell
company aud the Iowa Independent
Telephone association, eliminating in
a satisfactory agreement to both sides

ton of prenatal influence. has lust
been hled in the New York Supreme
Court by William B. Hogan. New York,

daughter Jeanette, against Borden's
Condensed Mix Company The suit.
which is for 100000 damages. is bas-
cd on the contention that the child's
mother was bitten BY horse own
oy the company and that. although IN
mother was but slightly injured, the
shock caused physical deformities ana
other ahnormalitieS in the child, which
was born few months later.
The suit was said 10 be so unusual
that the reports of court decisions in
this State contained no exact prece-
dent. Actions involving claims of
physical injury to unborn children
were said 10 be not uncommon, but the
claim of an indirect effect in such
cases WAS said to be very rare. The
action was said to present not only an
unusual legal question, but to be
unique from a medical viewpoint Ii
is expected that expert medical testi-
mony, as to the effect, if any, of pre-.
natal influences would be offered b,
both sides.
