AUTOMOBILE RACES AT STATE FAIR Mnnnfnctnrer Sny They Will fiend nest Machines Only Two Men Pass Military Kxamlnntlnn Prom inent Colored Mnn tiles. (From u Staff Correspondent.) DBS MOINKS, Aug. 9. (Special.) Tho copious rain of tht past two days In Iowa has been highly encouraging to the farmers of the state and the prospect for fall pas tures Is now excellent. Since the brenklng of the prolonged drouth the weather has been Ideal for recuperation and there Is no sign of anything to discourage the people. Today Director Sage of the weather and crop service mado the following general report on condition of crops for August 1, being a revlow of the month of July and tho summer to that date: Tho condition of corn Is unusually vari able in different sections of tho state, as shown by estimates ranging from twenty to ninety per cent, and the final output of (he crop depends upon future contingencies ns to moisture and early or late frosts ; there fore the averoffi estimate of condition for tho state at large, made at this time, must be taken with duo ollownnco for the un UBUal circumstances under which It has been put forth. No man nt this time Is sufficiently well Informed as to the actual condition of the crop in nil parts of the stato to be able to formulate anything bet ter than a guess relntlvo to the final out put of merchantable corn. Kstlmates of condition aro .is follows; Corn, 65 per cent; eprlng wheat. 84; oats, 75; barley, 83; flax, 74; millet, C2; potatoes, 34; pastures, 45; apples, 35; grapes, 70. Tho larger number of these reports were mado by local correspondents during the last days of July and before tho beneficial effects of tho copious showers wero made evident. And the fact should be noted that tho estimates are mado by the larger num ber of reporters on the basis of 40 bushels of corn per ncro ns the normal crop, repre senting 100 per cent. This would Indicate an average vleld of 22 bushels p?r acre, as the consensus of opinion of the reporters.; or a total for the state of about 100,000,000 bushels. In my Judgment the, total will not fall short of that amount, but this estimate Is subject to revision when we know more about the matter. Ilrnlli of Prominent Colored Mnn.

Cold Wenther Toic for Mldstiinni-T ' Iteiullim, An innovation In municipal ownership Is soon to bo launched at Goshen, Ind, Tho city council proposes to furnth heat to Its citizens In addition to water and lights. Tho plan is to furnish hot water heat from the municipal water works plant. This system has been tested nnd found success ful In Umilon, England, nnd also to somo extent by prlvato companies In tho United States, but never before has 11 municipality undertaken such a plan. It was In 1S74 that the question nroso of either Increasing tho size of Goshen's fire department or else constructing a municipal water works ptnnt on a small scale for fire protection only. There had been a number of big losses from fires and In thceo days the fire department facilities of the smaller towns nnd cities wero usually Inadequate, Tho outfit here consisted of n hnml-pumplng engine, two hoso carts and n hook and ladder device. A public meeting was held. It was lnrgely attended und tho cnthuelnsm was marked. It was decided that the city should put In a water works system as suggested, and a resolution to that effect was sent to the council, nnd soon the work was begun. Tho ystent Installed would now, twenty-five years later, bo considered very crude, but It answered the purposes of that day. The main pipes which were laid wero of wood. They were made to connect with a canal, and to force tho supply of water through them tho city purchased pumps nnd a large w'heel for water power. Tho system, when completed, cost tho city $9,000 nnd It was found that beoldes filling tho needs for which it wns particularly constructed that It would admit of still further extension with but little extra cost. Following Its completion n public test of tho system wns made to the satisfaction of tho citizens. From thh beginning later developed the Installing of steam power so as to allow tho supply of water for prlvato consumption. Next came the addition of artesian wells, nnd In 1S81 a power house with a complete plant was erected. Today tho system In cludes nearly twenty-one nitleo of street mains. 100 flro hydrants nnd twelve public watering troughs, The power station equip ment comprises n stnndplpo of 2ii5,000 gal lons capacity, ono pump with a capacity of I'.OOO.OOO gallons for every twenty. four hours nnd two pump of 1.000.0PO gollons capacity each and four hollers of 400-horse power. From tho plant thero Is an annual Income of nearly $7,500 from private con sumers, The Installing of a municipal hot-wnter plant is now In tho hands of the water and lighting committee, which is so success fully managing tho municipal plants al ready In operation. In their first report to tho city council they stated thnt they hud Information to the effect that tho ex haust from tho city power station would supply, without cost, nil tho heat required for heating tho water for from 40,000 to 50.000 squaie feet of radiation. Onu esti mate Is that It will hunt from 70,000 to 80,000 feet. In order to he safely conserva tive, they go on to nssumo that the ex haust will supply heat for only 25.000 I square feet. Tho cost of furnishing tho 1 heat for 123,000 squaro feet would bo, an nually, j,,ouu tor heitt and $57(5 for power mcuinie me water. It is figured thnt fifty pounds of coal will supply heat for ono squa.-o foot of radiation surfaco for ono year. Computing coal at $3 a ton, this amounts to 7V5 cents per square foot of radiation per year. Tho figures, $7,500 per annum, represents this nmount as applied to 100,000 squaro feet, tho other 25,000 feet, It will be remembered, coming from tho exhaust , pipe of the plant which the city now owns. Thus a waste product Is made a source of profit. For circulating tho water for 125,000 square feet twenty-horse power is required, which will consume flvo pounds of cool per hour, which, for 1G0 days, which Is the average number of days that heat Is required In n year, makes the cost in this regard $576. Tho total cost, therefore, of operating this system for n year In Goshen would be $8,076. At the rate of 15 cents per squaro foot to consumers tho Income from 125,000 square feet would bo $18,750. This, it will be seen, Is $10,674 In excess of the operating expenses. It is assumed that the full 125.000 feet would bo taken by consumers annually after the fifth year, at least. Forty thousand feet should bo taken tho first year, tho commit tee estimates. Tho cost of putting In n system which will furnish 125,000 squaro feet of radia tion would bo n little less than $10,000. This Includes the cost of laying all the mains. Assuming that 30,000 feet of radia tion would bo taken tho first year, 50.000 tho second year, 75,000 the third year. 100, 000 tho fourth year and 125,000 tho fifth year by consumers, tho roonue over ex penses for the first flvo years would bo $20,024. In tho expenses Is Included the cost of Interest nt $3,000 annually, If no payment Is made on the principal of tho debt for the first flvo years. Goshen nlso proposes to hent its public buildings with hot water. TOOK A IIITK I. TUB IMltK. Thin Time the Joke Wii on lllm mill .ot Ills .Mother. A young man whose work keeps him downtown until tho enrly morning hours UHiinlly reaches homo with a sharp appetite, relates tho Cleveland Plain Dealer. His mother, an Indulgent mothor, too', putts a llttlo lunch out whero ho can get It, but this frequently falls to satlsfv him. Ills wise parent knows this nnd she saves tho Inrder from n wholesalo onslaught by lock ing things up. Now, if there is one thing In particular that this youth dotes upon it is Jelly. But Jelly U an nrtlclo of food that takes time and skill In Its preparation, and If the woman left her Jelly Jars at his disposal well, thero would ho nono to dispose of after a few mornings. So tho Jelly Is locked up tho tightest of nil. Tho other morning the youth lot himself Into the house Just ns tho gray streaks of dawn were crows-barring tho eastern sky. Thoro waB milk and bread awaiting him. but his soul craved for Jelly. Ho deter mined to hunt for somo. Taking a slice of bread and n knlfo ho stolo down cellar nnd searched tho fruit shelves. What hnppl ncss! He dimly mado out tho outlines of a Jelly Jar. Was thero nny Jelly In It? Ho dipped In his knife nnd felt the soft nnd quivering mass. What a Joko on hU usua'ly careful mother. She had actually forgotton to turn the key on this treasure. Ho drew out n generous quantity nnd cnrefully spread It on tho bread. He had to do It largely by guesswork, becauso tho cellar was almost totally dark. When the spreading was dono ho smacked his Hps lightly and took a generous blto. No, it wasn't Jolly. It was soft soap. Illeyele Vermis Cow, London Tld-Blts: An Irish farmer went into an ironmonger's shop to buy a scythe. After sorvtng him tho shopman asked hi in If he would buy 11 bicycle. "What Is that?" queried the Irishman. "It's a machine to ride about tho town on." "And, shiire, what might the prlco of it bo?" "Fifteen pounds." "I'd rather seo 15 In a cow." "But what a fool you would look like riding around the town on tho back of a cowl" "Shure now," replied the Irishman, "not half such a fool as I'd look trying to milk a bicycle," Skin-Tortured And Worn-out Worried Mothers Find Comfort in Cuticura.
