western Nebraska sufferers.
That there is a great deal of
bogus coin floating in this city is
evidenced by the fact that the
writer had passed upon him a
queer quarter. The editor of the
Telegraph has what purports
to be a silver dollar, which, like the
poor, will always be with him.
Verily these are hard lines for
humble newspaper men.
More relief continues to arrive
daily, and the express companies
appear to be more charitable than
do the various freight lines, as a

charges theron, which was promptly
remitted by the company as soon
as it was notified.
Man' North Platte people find
serious objection to the scabby ap
pearance of the potatoes grown in
this section. A writer in an old
established eastern horticultural
publication says potato scab may
be prevented by soaking the seed
from one hour to one hour and one
half in a solution of corrosive sub
limate consisting of one ounce of
' this chemical to eight gallons of
water. If this is an efticacions
remedy it is a very cheap one, and
well worth a trial.

The various sheriffs of the

the Nebraska legislature extending
the-term of their office to four years.
Two years at a time is sufficiently

and have fattened upon the nutri

Owing to increased freight rate
to eastern points the shipments of
hay have fallen off considerably
lately. Hay is now selling at $7.50
per ton on the track. 50 cents less
than early in the fall. Should the t

it is likely hay will advance in
price. Harrington & Tobin have
300 tons under cover in this city.

in character to the marl that is

and Florida. Some day in the
future, when the lands of Nebraska
require the use of mineral manure,
there will be mills that will grind

many thousands of dollars into Lin

There is another source of wealth

There is also to be found in the

s"on. Some little kicking is being done
because tho lot is so close to tuwu but it
is said tho purchasing committee spent
sovoral days looking for a more suitable
location and could not Hud any ono

cemetery much longer.
