This a Great Country
Last Monday while the represen
tative of the Journal was in Nehaw
ka there was going on in this com
munity the following work, putting
'up ice, plowing, cutting stocks for
I the spring work and threshing some
'of last summer's wheat crop, thus
including work from all the seasons.
Now can you beat this for a variety
of work on the 22nd day of Janu

could equal the work which this day
afforded the vicinity of Nehawka. .

the problems of water and sewerage

unknown but much interest is

saved. The city needs both the water

well.
