Money Redeemed as Muscatine Banks Cancel Old Script
Seventy five thousand dollars in currency certificates issued during the financial stringency were burned to redeem the notes last November. The Associated Banks committee met at Cook Musser and Company to order destruction, with Judge J Carskaddan, F P Sawyer, and others present. The scheme, begun when real money was scarce, proved sound and is now ended as the old home made currency is retired. Public notice also appears for Sub sewerage District No 13 improvements in Muscatine with estimated cost eight thousand one hundred twenty three dollars and varied pipe sewers planned along Eleventh Orange Oak Maple Woodlawn Culver streets.
