city and Louisville went out of com
mission this morning about two
o'clock as the result of the burning
out of the line and for several hours
forty-seven towns were without light
or power as the result of the venture
of the owl. The owl alighting on
the wires caused the current to flush'
over and burn out the lines an(
while the bird was executed by the
Juice it did a great deal of damage
to the property of the light company
as well as causing much inconven
ience to the patrons of the company
in this part of the county as well as
in theh western Iowa lines.
Manager Kuykendall also reports
that in the western part of the city
a number of boys have been engaged
in shooting off the insolators of the
lines and causing much annoyance to
the company' and if any more cases
of this kind are reported the lads
will be prosecuted.

Seeing is Believing!
We told you so, but you would not believe us it seemed too good to be
true. Some one told you the "FORDSON would not pull it."
Well, just run over to the Chas. Warner farm and you can see for your
self that the Fordson Tractor and Woods Bros. Thresher are doing the best job of
threshing you ever saw.
There is no good reason why you should buy a larger outfit. It will cost
you more money and will give you no better service. Wallace Warner, Ray Smith
and Jack Micin purchased a Fordson Tractor and Woods Bros. 20x36 separator
and are now threshing. Ask them what they think about it. Go and see them
threshing and. you won't let any one tell you again that the Fordson Tractor and
Woods Bros, separator are too small for your use. Then come in and place your
order now. We can fill it now; perhaps not in two weeks.
