of the sblppln; Baalnea
at the Members.
The vegetable growers of Council Bluffs
and vicinity, who recently effected a tem
porary organisation with J. R. Mcpherson
president, decided at a meeting; held Satur
day night la the rooms of the Commercial
club to Join the -Council Bluffs XJrape
Growers' association as Individuals.
At a conference held about a week agro
between committees from the Grape Grow
ers' association and the Pottawattamie
County Vegetable Growers' and Shipping
association, by which name the temporary
organisation of the truck farmers wa
known, the. former association offered to
market, to as great an extent as possible,
the produce of the vegetable growers, pro
vided the latter should pay a fee of tlO
each and become members of the associa
tion. This proposal on the rart of the Grape
flowers' association arpcaled to the veget
able growers, who felt they were not
sufficiently strong or numerous enough to
maintain a separate organiition and em
ploy a manager to look after the shipping
business. s It is many of the vegetable
men are also fruit grower and are al
ready members of the Grape Growers'
association.
The action taken last night by the veg
etable men will now make the separate
organization unnecessary. The meeting last
night was well attended.

opposition to Taft Instruction, and nearly
everywhere in Kansas the sentiment In

The evidence showed, however, that

the court took occasion to administer a

an old man like Cronin to remain almost
a week at Ms place, during the greater
part of which tim he had been, it wa
shown, in an intoxicated condition.
Cronin, in his etory Jo the court, said he
came to Council Bluffs on Friday, May 1.
in company- with aa old friend, and to
gether they put op In a room over the Kane
saloon. He admitted he had been at the
saloon from May 1 to May C. and had
been under the influence of liquor th
greater part of the time. He ald be had
been under the impression he had given
Kane $16 to keep for him. but when he
asked for his money Kane denied having
it and offered him fl.3 to pay his faro
back to Dunlap. The aged farmer said
that When .he arrived in Council P.luf fa he
had wm in an insiae pocket and $- Inside
one of his sock. He did not recollect

THE ALCOHOL in beer is a trifle only VA per cent.
The effective ingredients are barley and hops a food and a
tonic. Pure beer is both good and good for you.
In Germany, Holland, Sweden, Denmark and Austria
beer is the national beverage. Nearly all people, , of all ages,
drink it.
And all the world envies their sturdy strength.
Every doctor knows how beer benefits. If you need
more strength or vitality he will prescribe it.
But be careful to choose a pure beer, else you get harm
with the good. And select a beer well aged to avoid biliousness.
The way to be sure is to order Schlitz. We go to
