Greenwood Department?
Prepared in the Interest of the People of Greenwood and Surrounding Vicinity
Paul Stander threshed his wheat
on last Tuesday and was well stais
fied with the yield as it made about
23 bushels to the acre.
Paul Straite in his threshing re
ceied a very good product from his
wheat fields as he had wheat which
tested 58 pounds with 15 degrees
of moisture and yielded 23.3 to the
acre.
The threshing of the wheat which
was grown by the sons of O. F. Peters
indicated that the yield will be some
where in the neighborhood of thirty
bushels to the acre, and of a good
quality.
Al Ethrege was stacking wheat for
Sam Gray during the early portion
of last week which is a lettle of the
regular order for most people thresh
out of the shock but Mr. Gray thinks
the wheat does better when is sweats
in the stack.
The Rebeekah Assembly of the
I. 0. O. F. were meeting last Wednes
day afternoon at the I. O. O. F. hall
and had a most delightful afternoon
with the program, their social hour
and the very fine luncheon which was
served by the ladies.
The Greenwood elevators has ship
ped three cars of wheat to the mar
ket on last week when we were in
the city and while all were discribed
as very fine, the moisture which was
inherent on account of the rains kept
the wheat from grading the best.
The wheat which was threshed on
the June Kyles place and grown by
that gentleman showed good as tc
quality as it was the best and was
moderatly free from moisture and
yielded 22 bushels to the acre and
tested 5S pounds to the truck bushel.
George Bucknell was a iaiior on
last Tuesday at Omaha where hr
was looking after some personal bus
iness as well as looking after some
business in connection with the three
days picnic which is to be held at
Greenwood on August 9th,-10th and
11th.
Henry Bickart of Lincoln was a
visitor in Greenwood and also at the
home of his brother-in-law, Carl
Stander a couple of days the past
week, and when he returned to Lin
coln he was intending to go to Elm
wood where he has some two or three
brothers where he will visit for a
week.
Charles Oufenkamp threshed a por
tion of his crop of wheat one day
last week and from the returns as
closely as could be calculated would
allow the field which contains about
seventy acres to yield at the rate of
37 bushels per acre. This wheat is of
a good quality but contains a large
percent of moisture.
A. R. Birdsall at the Cafe which
is a very popular place, is having
the place entirely redecorated and
made the very best and neatest that
can be is having the interior of the
room painted and varnished which
makes it very neat and attractive
place. The work is being done by
Fred Wolfe and Dwight Talcott.
There were four of the families
of Greenwood who were at the pic
nic which was held in Louisville by
the American Legion, and where p
most delightful time was had. Phil
Hall and the wife, George Trunken
bolz and family. George Bucknell and

as he is accepting the pastorate of
the Christian church at that place
Rev. Grassmeuch disposed or his Ford
Coupe which has served him so faith
fully and in its stead has secured a
new Studebaker coach and a larger
and more roomy car which will give
the minister and the family more
room when they go to ride.
Will Leave Soon
On Tuesday of last week the Rev.
II. L. Grassmuech, former pastor of
the Christian church of Greenwood
was over to Plattsmouth where he
Had Great Meeting
The committee which embraces
many of the leading citizens of Green
wood met last Friday for the pur
pose of perfecting arrangements for
the holding of one of the best picnics
and advertising propositions for the
hustling city of Greenwood, which
has been floated for some time and at
which there were much enthusiasm
displayed and a determination evinced
to make this one of the big successes
for the year. Let all pull together
and pull hard and strong for those
who have the advertising of the event
in hand will make a booster trip
some time during the latter portion
of this month visiting, they will also
have the advertismenj boradcasted
over the Mona Motor Oil Company
from KOIL.
Co-operation The Watchword
The people of Greenwood are sure
going after the proposition of their
first three days picnic, which occurs
on August 9, 10, 11 with a tune
which spells success and with hard
work and genuine co-operation they
are expecting to put on a gathering
which will attract all who ever lived
in Greenwood or its vicinity to come
and as well to bring others who never
have been here before to the city.

BUYS SOME LAND NEAR
PLATTSMOUTH LAST WEEK
F. L. Nutzman, one of the most
prosperous and well-to-do farmers,
from southern Cass county, near the
town of Avoca. purchased 103 acres
of land near Plattsmouth within the
past few days. Jack Roddy, rustling
I'liion real estate man, made the
deal. The land purchased by Mr.
Nutzman. comprises 68 acres from
T. H. Pollock and 342 acres from
Chas. Johnson, being located six miles
south of Plattsmouth. on the K. T.
highway, and was formerly known as
the Wiles land.
This is surely a choice piece of
land, without improvements, and we
hope to see the day in the very near
future that Mr. Nutzman will decide
to build himself a fine country home
on this place and become a closer
resilient to Plattsmouth.
Mr. Nutzman owns considerable
land in southern Cass county, also in
Otoo county, and he is not only a
successful farmer, but a business and
financial man as well; also having
served two terms in the state legisla
ture. Come up Fred and spend the bal
ance of your days on the north side
of the best county in the state!

Mexico City, near Rincon, yesterday
and captured and executed three
members of the band.
The rebels derailed all except two
coaches of the train. Seven passen

decree stated that Mrs. Dale3 was
not entitled to alimony. Her maid

made out of court, according to John
