IOX Wl'TTK COUNTY A LKADFll
Box Butte count la now In the
midst of a harvest tbe like of whlcn
waa not dreamed of a tew years ago,
and If the present weather holda out
for a few days longer, the golden
grain will aoon be bouaed In the farm
buildings, which will be bursting
with their load. Growers of alfalfa,
oata, and barley will be riding the
crest of a wave of prosperity that will
bury mortgages, notea and other In
cumbrances in ita smothering foam.
From all aectlona of the county
come cheering reports of bumper
yields. There has been moisture a
plenty so much, in fact, that ripen
ing has been delayed considerably,
but the warm sunshine of the last
two weeks has worked wondera, and
baa filled out and rounded the grain
with an almost magic touch. Every
where the traveler's footsteps wan
der there are evidences of unauual
prosperity, vheat fields give way to
billowy oceans of oata, and oata to
an emerald-green field of alfalfa. It
Is the triumph of the dry land farm
er his own year. Men who were
laughed at when they announced that
they could grow crope on the landa
they now occupy were ridiculed, for
everyone positively knew (T) that
nothing could be raised in the sand
hills except potatoea. Think of land
bought for teaa than a song produc
ing SO-bushel wheat and Z-ton-to-the-acre
alfalfa. The Irrigator of
course will get his share, but it will
not be as large a abare proportion
ately as that of the dry land farm
er. Owing to the continued wet
weather tho first of the season, the
hay crop is not as heavy as it could
be, but even at that It is a dandy.
The only fly In the ointment for
the farmer and rancher is the ab
sence of good roads in many of the
districts. Some of these highways
are in excellent condition, but no
matter what the condition now is,
they can be bettered, and the great
cry ia for more roads first get the
roads and then better them. The
county commissioners are now work
ing on the road proposition to some
xtent, and the next year, or even
less time than that, Is expected to
see some wonderful transformations
In the road systems in Box Butte
county.

REED VOII VICTORY
Attorney General I toed of Nebraska
' Held Railroad lUtee ia Favor
of Stock Shippers
(By special correspondent)
, Lincoln, Nebr., August 18 The
termination of the case on trial be
fore . the interstate commerce com
mission, in Washington this week, in
which the railroads asked for radical
advances In freight rates, reaulted in
a partial increase only being granted,
and as the raise of rates the railroads
asked for on grain products, live
stock and packing house stuff was re-'
fused the people of Nebraska have
won a victory. To Attorney General

Incidentally remark that school be
gan in a month. Then your plans
fell to pieces, and you wlahed there
never waa auch a thing aa a school
room. You said you never did like
to go to school, and that you knew
as much aa some people who went to
school almost all their lives.
And the kids today are Just the
same in mina as tney were in your
day. You don't have to go very far
to find a repetition of your own
thoughts and remarks these daya, be
cause the Alliance schoola are going
to open on September 6. Already
the boys and girla are telling each
other that there should be no schools
and that they know enough already,
and that the terms and the vacations
should be reversed there ought to
be three months of achool and nine
months of vacation, because they
Just can't carry out all their plans in
the short space of three months,
But It's coming, and they'll all be
there on the first day, ready to take
up their duties for another year. And
they'll atudy bard. Just like they al-
waya do, and really before they hard
ly know it, there will be another va
cation, because time passes in a hurry.
