NEW IMPLEMENT WAREHOUSE Ohio Cultivator Company Decides to Eatablish Branch in City. Council Bluffs is now assured of another large wholesale agricultural {mplement house. The Ohlo Cultivator company, which has heretofore only maintained an office in this city and transacted its busi- nees through the Union Transfer company, will establish a large branch warehouse here. Through its local manager, D. I. Hoch, the company yesterday consummated the brick warehouse at the corner of Sixth street and Twelfth avenue. The bullding w originally erected by the McFarland Carrlage company, but for some time past has been occupled as a storage warehouse by the Fuller-Johnson company. The Ful- ler-Johnson company having organized a separate local company under the name of the Fuller & Johnson-Shugart company, will next spring occupy the large ware- house on South Main street, now being erected for it on the old Deere-Wells site by Warehouse Construction company No. 2. The warehouse building acquired by the Ohio Cultivator company is a basement and two-story brick structure, with a frontage of fifty-five feet and a dopth of 110 feet. As it was originally constructed as a ware- house for vehicles such as handled by the McFarland Carriage compaby, a much lighter grade of goods than the agricultural implement stock handled by the Ohio Cul- tivator company, the bullding will have to be strengthened, and in fact almost en- tirely remodeled. The Ohio Cultivator company had for some time past been considering the ad- visability of establishing a large warehousc in this section and discontinuing the hand- ling of its business through the Transfer company, Fallure to secure a suitable site in this city had almost decided the com- pany on moving to Omaha, when the oppor- tunity to secure the property at the corner of Twelfth avenue and Sixth street, with its escellent trackage facilities, presented itself and gives to Council Bluffs one more large agricultural implement house.

The city had under consideration the advisability of erecting a steel bridge over the creek at this point, but decided on the less expensive structure.

Meeker, the young Colorado mining engineer who made an unsuccessful at- tempt to end his life by the cyanide of potassium route at the Grand hotel last Friday, left last evening for his home In Pueblo, entirely recovered from the ef- fects of the drug. Since his unfortunate attempt to commit sulelde became known young Meeker, who is said to belong to a prominent family of Pueblo, has been the reciplent of much attention at the hands of the guests in the hotel, who did all in their power to cheer him up and Induce him to look on life with a more rosy hue. The young man was visibly affected when parting from the people who had be- friended him at the hotel. to Regain a Husband. Mrs. Susan A.

NEW YORK, Dee. 9.—The board of ort Pennsylvania tunnel franchise untll mext Tuesday afternoon. Dec. 9.—(Special.)—Ex- had been secured. President Wragg ® gested that it be used in educational work. He would suggest that instead of having an annual report in a large volume it be divided into’ twelve parts and be issued once & month. The educatfonal work is most important and there should be con- in- tinued efforts to have the schools erested. The work of the experiment tions has been greatly increased the past year and this especlally in pollination. There has been an increase in tree plant- ing in lowa, but the past season, with thirty-four inches of rainfall in the grow- ing months, against sixteen Inches the previous year, was the most disastrous of all. President Wragg recommended a change in the fruit districts of Iowa, making the southern two tiers of counties instead of the southern three a district, and adding one tler to the northern district. He would also put Bremer county in the Eighth district. Secretary Greene, in his report, urged that $200 annually be appropriated for add- ing to the specimens in the soclety’'s mu- seum and a llke amount for books. He would cease distribution of reports free, but would have bulletins issued regularly for free distribution. The usual committees were appointed and representatives from Illinois and Wiscon- sin were admitted. The program was taken up and papers presented. State Farmers’ Institute. While the program of the State Farmers' Institute was short, the papers were of a high character and as there was abundant time for discussion the session was de- clared by those present to be a most in- teresting one. President Frasier of Bloom- field was not present and the meeting was presided ovor by Vice President Morrow of Unlon county. Four papers were read at the morning session. Henry Parsops of Rockwell City told of his experfence In maintaining the fertil- ity of the soil on a farm devoted to grain ralsing. He preférred disking the ground before plowing, and 'this in addition to liberal fertilization. He sowed clover with grain for the purpose of plowing it under the next year. W. W. Morrow of Afton, on the subject of procuring a perfect stand of corn, of- fered suggestions as to elther fall plowing or the spring plowing as near planting time as possible. On fall plowing he used the disk or harrow before planting. He ad- vised early planting, but would not plant before the ground ls warm. An interesting paper was read by H. C. Wallace on winter wheat, in which he re- lated the experience of himself in raising winter wheat on A farm seven miles south of Des Mofnes. Eleven hundred bushels were ralsed on 5.5 acres, or 15.6 bushels per acre. The average price per bushel for several years was 50.8 cents and the proceeds were $8.86 per acre. This was better than oats or corn and yet the rec- ords show that there has been a steady decline in winter wheat growing in Iowa for many ye He pointed out what good winter wheat can be grown in all the south part of the state. W. J. Kennedy of the State college dis- cussed the points to be considered in economic production of beef. He sald the successful farmer of the future would be one with beet cattle, dairy cows, good hogs—an all-round farmer. This afternoon James Atkinson of Des Moines read a paper on forage crops, W. B. Barney of Hampton had a paper on the silo for the Towa farmer and P. G. Holden of the State college spoke of the improve- ment of seed corn. Other Meetings. The second session of the State Park and Forestry oclation were held this after- noon and evenjng and papers read.

WHOLE CITY OF PORTLAND IN MOURNING Distinguished Assemblage Meets in Unit n Church to Pay Last Tribute to the Il trious Dead. PORTLAND, Me., Dec. 9.—Simple but im- pressive services consisting of music, scrip- ture reading, prayer and a brief eulogy were held over the remains of ex-Speaker Themas B. Reed at the First Unitarian church today. The church was thronged with a distin- guished assemblage, which included the governors of Maine and Massachusetts, the Loyal Legion, several Grand Army posts, members of the bar, city officlals and del- ogates from nearly every political organi- zation in the state. In a room which opened into the audi- torium of the church were the widow and daughter, attended by a number of personal friends and screened from the crowd in the main edifice. The day was one of mourning throughout the city. Many places of business were closed during the afternoon. Public build- ings were closed during the day. Services in the church were held at 2 o'clock, but for some hours the body had been lying in state in the parish house, where it was viewed by thousands of people. The parish house was closed shortly after 1 o'clock and the casket removed to the church. While the assembly was being seated Hermann Kotzchmar was at the organ. In the front pews were seated the pall bearers, Joseph Symonds, John G. Small, George E. Bird, Attorney General George M. Selders, Judge Clarence Vale of the dis- trict court, Robinson Willlams, Willlam Bradley and W. R. Woods. The organ ceased and after a briet pause Rev. John Carroll Perkins, the pastor of the church, read appropriate selections from the bible, following with prayer. | After a short strain from the organ Mr. Perkins delivered the eulogy and closed his remarks with a benediction. The casket was borne to the hearse and while the bells of the city tolled sixty- three strokes, onme for each year of Mr. Reed's life, the funeral party entered car- riages. The little procession passed to Evergreen cemetery, where the body was placed in a tomb, to awalt burfal in the spring.
