Blessing was formerly stationed at South Sioux City, and filled the pulpit in this place on several occasions. He de livered the baccalaureate sermon to the graduates of the Dakota City high school class of '14. Station Agent F. E. Gordon, of the Burlington, showed us an apple Tuesday that was quite an oddity. It had two distinct stems and blos som ends, and was in the form of two apples grown together. It seems that there is an unusual lot-of freaks in both fruit and corn this year.already a number of freak ears of corn have been discovered. The Herald printed a supply of stationery for Mr. F. B. Learner, one of the progressive and up-to-date farmers of this precinct, the past week. The Learner farm has been recognized for years as prob ably the first farm in this locality to produce alfalfa to any extent, and this fact suggested to Mr. Learner a name for his farm, which he has christened the "Pioneer Alfalfa Farm." Barney Gribble returned home Monday from a couple of weeks vis it with his sons, John W. and George Gribble, at South Omaha. He stat ed that tho corn south of here show ed the effects of frost more than it did in this locality, and that the Lo gan creek from Pender to Oakland was out of its banks and that a strip a mile or two wide in the best corn belt of the state was under water and would be almost ruined. For the first time in years, the Grand Encampment of the I. 0. 0. F. will be held in Omaha this fall. The dates are October 18 to 21 and the Fontenelle Hotel headquarters. More than fifteen hundred members of the organization and the Rebec cas, the auxiliary, will gather for the meeting. An excellent program has been arranged, covering three days. F. L. Graves will represent Dakota City Lodge No. 48 at the coming session. The meeting held here Monday to consider the advisability of bonding the county to build a "free" bridge between bioux City, Iowa, and South Sioux City, Nebr., proved considera ble of a fiasco. Only a few of the "chosen" delegates were present, and many of them were not in favor of the proposition. The South Sioux City Commercial club, backors of the project, expect to call another meeting soon to formulate plans to get the matter before the people. The Nebraska Agricultural Exneri- ment Station recently issued Bulletin 147, which is a report of the North Platte Substation on "Pork Produc tion" during the last three years, with summaries of previous bulletins on the same subject. This bulletin is printed in two editions. The brief, popular edition will be sent to the regular mailing list. The more com plete edition will be sent only on re quest, hither edition may by had free of cost by residents of Nebras ke upon application to the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station, Lincoln, E. A. Burnett, Director. How to get into new families is the big problem of publishers. TheState Journal of Lincoln has solved this by making a big reduction trial offer of only one dollar for the Daily and Sun day to January 1, 191G, and also in cluding the Weekly Independent Farmer. This offer should get new readers by the hundreds and tho pub lishers feel that all that is needed is for the people to become acquainted with The Journal. Lincoln's onlv morning paper, and the Independent farmer, which is Nebraska's coming farm paper. A dollar for this com bination is cheap. Order it at once and papers will started at once. Tho great war events make The Lincoln Journal particularly desirable. - r. iv---' Tho Herald 1 year, $1. Prof. C.

Evans of this place, won first honors in Di vision A, class 4 for girls 24 months and under 3G months of age, with a score of 97.10 points.

A letter from Stott Neiswanger, who is attending the Nebraska Mili tary Academy at Lincoln, states that he likes his school work and is work ing hard on his studies. Ho has been given his old position right halfback on the football team. The military drill, he says, is not all play and tends to make the boys prompt and obedient.
