smoothly Friday.
Very few changes have as yet been
made in the personnel of the two old

factory position elsewhere in the city.
II is not known yet just what use
rill be made of the former banking
room Of the First National. one of
the finest in the state and occupying

Bank Of Fergus. and the plan was
nearly carried out then. The move now
carried out is looked upon by all
the business men as a wise one, from
a business point of view. though there
we're reasons of sentiment against it.

CONSTRUCTION MAY
BEGIN NEXT YEAR
ON ZURICH PROJECT
Plans for Irrigating 10000
Acres Advance With Land
owners Support.
to The Tribune.

SPECIAL 10 IHe 1FlDuDe.
Harlem, Dec. Assurances from
land owners that they are willing te
pay a per acre tax of SILT warrants
the belief that actual construction will
start next spring on the Zurich irriga-
ton district, plans for which provide
for the watering of 10000 acres. Com
missioners of the district believe that
construction can be completed by the
end of the summer and that the acre
age will be under the ditch by the
next crop season.
James Acher and James Buckley. two
of the commissioners. have discussed
with the land wner the proposed acre
age tax and have smoothed out q
number Of misunderstanding that have
hindered the development of plans.
What has been accomplished by the
commissioners up to the present time
will be told at a special meeting called
for Harlem, Saturday afternoon. 1t
is hoped that definite plans for the
advancement of the district will result
from this meeting.
Rumors were current that some land
owners within the district were con
templating legal action to kill the dis
trict but these were found to be errone-
Gus by the commissioners. The com
missioners said they had prospects Of
selling the necessary bonds mex month
and if assurance of complete support
is Forthcoming from all land owners,
there was good reason TO believe that
actual construction would soon be a
possibility.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, July 19.-Unfavorable
comment regarding conditions of the CROP
advanced the price of cotton today, the
trade considering that. broadly speaking,
too much moisture was falling in the
eastern belt and not enough in the west,
while private reports from nearly all
states indicated that weeviN damage was
on the increase. The official weekly re-
ports were rather better than expected and
but did not cause wide recessions. The
tone in the late trading was steady be-
cause of rumors over private wires that
western coal operators were about to re-
sumo mining. On this the market closed
at net gains of II to % points, with Oc-
tober at 21.s7
Better cables than due, the rains in the
eastern belt and the rumor from Wash
ington that the government would issue
a special report on boil weevil damage
along with the next crop report, caused
activity and excitement on the opening
to their highest early in the session with
active months 81 to 81 points over the
close of yesterday and 22.00 for October.
Following the weekly crop reports the
market acquired a sagging tendency
which it retained for a while, the active
positions at their lowest standing to s
points higher than the final prices of
yesterday. The lowest sale on October
was at 21.75.

HsATHIzED METHODS
Truly Pure Foods Being Manufactures
Without Air.

Air is the outcast In food manufac-
ture, according to the most modern
methods. The most recent Govern
ment report pointed out that air must
be avoided because even clean air is
SO filthy that one cubic inch contains
a minimum of 1900 visible particles of
contamination" Pure food is sanitary
food, and food sanitation is the latest
development in this great American
crusade. Food scientists all over the
country have needed the Govern
ment's advice and have conducted
thousands of experiments looking to-
ward the elimination of air in food
manufacture. w. P. Heath of Chicago,
a food scientist for many years, bold
ly discarded all ancient methods as
attempting to manufacture in vacuum,
and went straight to nature for his
solution of the problem. Nature uses
carbon dioxide in all her products and
protects each vegetable, fruit, nut or
grain by a covering which excludes
air. Heath has perfected a method
commonly known as "Heathization'
by which bread. butter and ice cream
Of quality unsurpassed both for flaw
or and purity, are manufactured by
substituting this absolutely pure gas
for the impure air commonly used.
Food products manufactured by his
process such as "Heathized bread"
are acknowledged to be the purest
ever made, and the demand for them
is universal wherever they are known.
His process is the most important
development in modern food SANTA
ton.
