In all the board of control has secured
eighteen cars of material from the demo
lition of the Iowa building which was
presented to the board by the state
commission. Even the nails were saved
in tearing down the'structure and over
a dozen kegs'of nails alone were shipped
to Knoxville,.where most of the material
is to be used in the construction of the
state hospital for inebriates.
There were four car loads of furniture
and fixtures saved from the exposition
building, which were distributed among
the state institutions under the board
of control. Twenty-two potted palms
wpre also brought from the building and
divided among the institutions at Dav
enport, Fort Madison, Mt. Pleasant,
Clarinda and Glenwood. A car of
building material was sent to each of
the following institutions: Davenport,
Independence, Eldora, Mitchellville and
Gleenwood to be used in the new build
ings being erected there:
In air it is figured that the board of
control secured close to 140,000 feet of
lumber from the Iowa building. The
bulk of this will be used at Knoxville
this summer. In planning the adminis
tration building there the board ar
ranged to use the windows, doors and
interior finishings of the exposition
building and on one contract alone a
teduction of $2,000 was secured for the
use of this old material.
The tearing down of the Iowa build
ing. began December 1 and has occupied
four months. During that time not an
accident has occurred despite the liaz
ardous character of the work and the
immense amount of material to be
handled. Iowa is one of the first, if
not the first state, to complete the re
moval of its state building from the ex
position grounds. It is also said that
this state has secured more salvage
from its building than any other repre
sented in St. Louis.

the general conferences. The confer
ences are held yearly, always conven

and are always well attended. The L.

Iowa Building Razed.
The state board of control has re
ceived notice from the Louisiana Pur
chase Exposition that every bit of ma
terial used in the construction of the
Iowa building has been removed and
that the grounds'had been restored to
the same condition in which they were
before the big exposition. All that now
remains to be done is to sow grass
where stood the handsome Iowa building
but this the Iowa commission has been
relieved from doing owing to the sea
son. Even the cement walks had to be
removed and the cellar refilled before
the grounds were accepted as restored.

Dreadful Attack of Whooplnq
Cough.
Mrs. Ellen Harlison, of 300 Park Ave.,
Kansas City, Mo., writes as following:
"Our two children had a severe attack
of whooping cough, one of them in the
paroxysm of coughing would often faint
and bleed at the nose. We tried every
thing we heard of without getting re
lief. We then called in our family doc
tor who prescribed Foley's Honey and
Tar. With the very first dose they be
gan to improve and we feel that it has
saved their lives." Refuse substitutes.
L. P. Van Werden.
For some reason Mr. Garber, Presi
dent of the Decatur county branch of
the Iowa Meat Producer's Association
did not arrivo Saturday and the local
organization was not effected. The
Corn Club met and took a lesson in
scoring cord. Mr. Woolley, president
of the Corn Club, tells us that the far
mers over the county are taking
great interest in the seed corn ques
tion and the majority of them are test
ing their corn as Prof. Holden instruct
ed. Most of the seed has shown a
healthy growth and we will probably
nee the effect next fall. It is quite
gratifying to know that the farmers are
{iking such an interest in the corn
question.—Garden Grove Express.
