Burlington Win
Ask for Reduction
In Overtime Pay
Reduction in overtime pay to all
-classes of railway employes and a new
classification of work will be proposed
y officials of the Burlington railroad
at a series of conferences to be held
with employes in Chicago, beginning
"Thursday, W. F. Thiehoff, general
manager of the Burlington lines west,
announced Tuesday, according to the
Omaha Bee.
Mr. Thiehoff just returned from a
conference of Burlington officials in
Chicago, which was preliminary to a
final effort of the road to negotiate an
agreement on working rules with al'
classes of employes before July 1,
when the nstional wartime agreement
between employes and the government
win oe abio&aied by the railway labor
hoard.
"We will attempt to reach an agree
ment with employes which will provide
:for reasonable reductions in all de
partments and make the economical
operation of the road possible," said
ifr. Thiehoff.
"The labor board has made it man
datory that every effort shall be made
to reach an amiceble agreement and
Toads which fail to make a real ef
fort are apt to be spanked.
"It is particularly important that
"the classification of work, as fixed in
the national agreement, be changed.
For example, the agreement compels
us to 'deadhead' a carman, perhaps
hundreds of miles, to rebrass a car a
minor job. It also compels us to pay
the carman continuously from the time
lie begins the journey until he returns.
"That is just one of dozens of un
necessary expenses which the classi
fication forces on ' the roads."
If an agreement is not reached by
July 1 it is up to the labor board to
instruct roads how to act, Mr. Thiehoff
said

(Continue! .,n Page 2.)
Nine miles northwest of town is the
home of H. G. Bu?h, who owns one
hundred and aixty acres and is rent
ing another quarter section and doing
the work himself. He bought the
land four years ago and before he
could get things fixed up to farm he
was called on to go to war and spent
twenty-six months In the navv on the
U. S. S. Walker, but this spring he
built a house and fixed things up
nicely and about a month ago took
unto himself a wife. He is farming
to corn, oats and potatoes.
At the farm of William Vogel we
found Will working on his Ford, hut
we soon got talking hog and such like
ird Wil'iam forgot that he owned a
?ar at all. By the way, he has some
if the best hogs we have seen in a
long time and we think we know r
good Duroc when we see one, for that
!s our hobby. He Fhoved us a year
'ing boar that he bought this spring
from the veteran breeder, Ed Kearns
of Stanton, Neb., paying f 2f0 for him
and he Is worth it. He also his some
fifteen fine sows to go along with h'm
so anyone wanting good pigs this fall
can get them here. Mr. Vogel is a
pusher and is up-to-date with all his
work and improvements, having the
best hog house we have seen in west
ern Nebraska. He owns six hundred
and forty acres of land and is farming
three hundred and twenty-five acres
to crop. He is planting one hundred
acres to corn, one hundred and twenty
to oats, seventy-five to fall rye and
thirty to potatoes. He says that po
tatoes are the surest crop, but sticks
to the hog and corn. Mr. Vogel is
carrying out the system of feeding
that the best breeders do in the eastr
that is, corn, oats and tankage. That
is the balanced ration for swine to de
velop the best growth and .we are glad
to see this enterprising farmer doing
this and hope others will see the re
sults of his work.
AT THE MOVIES
The program for this evening at the
Imperial is an interesting one. In addi
tion to an installment of the "Son of
Tat inn" serial and one of these Snub
Pollard comedies, there will be a Fire
brand Trevison, with Buck Jones in
the lead. The story Is one of con
spiracy aimed at both the property
and the romance of a daring young
westerner. It is packed with whole
some excitement, including stunts by
the star which are marvelous in the
perils they involve. The interest never
lags for an instant, and the love
theme is handled with great cleverness.
F. A. Jones, just north of Vogel's
is farming two hundred acres and
likes the country fine. He is farming
to corn, wheat and oats with twenty
five acres to spuds and would not go
back east.
We had heard of P. J. Knapp before
we got to see him, but when we did ar
rive at his farm we were well paid for
our trouble in looking him up, for we
found many things of interest to us
or anyone. Mr. Knapp came here
from Madison county thirteen years
ago and has made good with a big G
He owns twenty-five hundred and six
ty acres of good land and is farming
one hundred and sixty to corn, fifty
to oats, fifty to spelts, ten to spuds,
thirty to rye and has thirty in alfalfa.
He has forty horses and one pure bred
stallion. He has cattle on the farm
after selling $9,700 worth last year.
Mr. Knapp tells us that he has raised
from twenty to forty bushels of corn
to the acre for the time he has been
in this country. One of the many in
teresting things we saw on the farm
was a cornhusker that Mr. Knapp
made, one of his own inventions, an
other proof that necessity is the
mother of invention. It is the cus
tom to snap the corn here in the fall
and husk it in the winter, so Mr.
Knapp went to work to build a ma
chine to husk the corn from pile or
crib. He bought an old shredder,
took the husking rolls out of it, built
a frame for it and then constructed a
feeder to match, and now he has a
husker that will husk five hundred
bushels per day and it is the only one
in captivity and is a grand success.
William S. Hail in "The Cradle, of
Courage,' is the Saturday feature. It
isn't necessary to do much advance
rooting for a Hart play. Almost all
of the kids, young boys and girls and
nine out of ten of the old people like
the way he rides and shoots and the
masterful way he behaves in the final
clinches. It's bound to be good.
Elsie Janis in "The Imp" is sche
duled for Sunday. Miss Janis appears
as Jane Morgan, a girl of wealthy
parents. A chance blow on the head
alters the whole course of her life.
It leaves her with the obscession that
she is Annie Adams, a famous crook,
known as "The Imp." She becomes
skilled in thievery and her exploits
cause the police to warn her father
that she must be kept under close re
straint. Dr. Gregory, a young brain
specialist, offers to affect a cure and
takes the case on the condition that all
restraint be removed from Jane, he
making himself responsible for her
actions. Ihen come a series of ex
citing incidents, culminating in a
climax that is as novel as it is unex
pected. The Monday bill contains two big
features, a return showing by request
of Anita Stewart in "Old Kentucky"
and Charles Chaplin in "A Dog's
Life," the first of his million-dollar-comedy
series.
