(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.

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.

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.

After sorvtng him tho shopman asked hi in

"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,"
