THE ORLEANS-ST. FRANCIS BRANCH
Atwood , Kansas , October 27. Special.
The Trans-Atwood country , that part
of the St. Francis branch which has only
tri-weekly service , is doing a good pay
ing business enough for daily train ser
vice. Since October ist , 130 carloads of
wheat and broom corn have been shipped
from the stations of Blakeman , McDon
ald , Bird City and St. Francis. St. Fran
cis ships more wheat than any other sta
tion on the branch , as many as ten car
loads having been shipped on one train.
The business of I , . E. Harrison , gen
eral merchant of St. Francis , paid him
over $500 last Saturday. The new hotel
at Herndon by our host Jennings , ex-
postmaster , is doing a good business.
Ex-County Judge Geiske of Atwood has
iiis new hostelry in operation , this week.
Geo. W. Dull , the leading merchant oi
Herndon , reports the best paying busi
ness , thia season , of any year since the
branch was built.
Herndon has shipped over 100,000
bushels of wheat. St. Francis , Bird City ,
McDonald and Blakeman sent 19 cars
of broom corn east , Monday. Danbury
business since the first of the year is as
follows , carloads counted only : Hogs ,
121 ; wheat , So ; corn , 48 ; rye , 24 ; cattle ,
14 ; sheep , 5 ; total , 289 carloads. Wilson-
ville , the prize station of the St. Francis
aranch , has shipped carloads east as fol
lows since the first of the year : Cattle ,
209 ; hogs , 182 ; mules , 2 ; grain , 89 ; total ,
402 carloads. She challenges any sta
tion on the Burlington system with a
jopulation of not over 1,000 to equal this
business for output traffic. A special
train of cattle was shipped to Wilson-
ville , Tuesday. This is the best stock
joint in Southwestern Nebraska. Bea
ver City does not ship as much stock
and grain as Wilsonville and Danbury ,
nit she is the first station on the branch
n the shipment of local freight. It
ometimes requires an hour to unload
he merchandise for that point.
The trains east and west are very late
aily on account of the heavy freight
raffic. The local freight , last Monday ,
vas so heavy that an extra was sent as
ar as Atwood to relieve the regular
rain.
