Mr. Baians reports that there has been a great deal of dry weather in his vicinity and the small grain has suffered much, the wheat mak ing only three to five bushels to the acre. George Bucknell and Col. Phil L. Hall were over to Lincoln on last kind act of Mr. Allen in the presen tation of the cannon. FIBEMEN DO GOOD WOEK The Greenwood Fire ' department was called to the A. E. Leesley farm south of that city last Saturday and made a record run. The barn, garage and chicken house were to far gone to save but the men succeeded in saving the house. President Leguia's administration warmly and asserted that Peru is now "an en tirely different place, due to the changes he has accomplished in the last nine years:" President Leguia, he said, is a "constitutional demo crat," governing by the choice of the people, but holding absolute authority as an executive.

Arthur Stewart, who has been look ing after the running of one of the threshers of J. C. Lomeyer, reports that he is about through with his work for this territory, and that the wheat he has been handling has all yielded well, much of it going above the average, and some of it making as much ss 35 bushels to the acre. Other places, it did not run so high, and in many places the yields have been very poor. Americans Most Litigious, Says Former Justice Made Splendid Bun A. E. Leesley suffered a great loss by fire on the farm which he has south of Greenwood, which is 'occu pied by a tenant, and -which was very severe in that a number of the out buildings were lost. There was grave danger of the loss of the house, and it was only by the very hard lighting of the Greenwood fire department that the residence was saved. The department of Green wood, which is always alert for ser vice and the very best at that, made the run from town to the place, which is two and a quarter miles, and after manfully fighting the lire, were able to save the house. The outer buildings were too far gone by the time they got there for them to save anything but the house. For Sale Horses One good work horse, one good work mule, one Shetland pony and one good used corn harvester. SANBORN SERVICE, Greenwood, Nebr. Picnic Preparations Going Hicely The preparations for the three-day picnic at Greenwood August 8th, 9th and 10th are progressing nicely and a large crowd is expected to be in attendance. Seventy towns have been billed and many attractions have been secured, among them the Hugo Shows, which will play all week, having just completed a week's en gagement at Plattsmouth where they presented some very fine plays and gave eminent satisfaction. Among the other attractions are glass blow ers, contortionists, clog dancers, etc., in a series of free acts. There will be a merry-go-round for the enter tainment of the kiddies and no lack of amusements for both the old and young1 folks. Greenwood is noted for not doing things by halves and this year's celebration, homecoming and Legion convention will certainly be no exception to the rule.
