bune: One hundred and forty farm
ers of Homer, Dakota county, ask
the stnte railway commission to cite
the Burlington railway officials, the
county commissioners and tho village
officers to appear nnd settle the long
pending dispute over a bridge that
has kept that community in a tur

line runs through the village. At
one point there is a foot bridge over
the railroad and a-block away anew
wagon bridge is to bo built by the
railroad. Village sentiment and also
the opinion of farmers who trado in
the town is divided over the question
of where the new cement bridge shall
be built. Some want tho foot bridge
moved to where it is proposed to
build the wagon bridge and the wag
on bridge built where tho foot bridge
now is. The railway is willing to
build wherever the people agree.
From tho foot bridge to where the
wagon bridge is projected the rail
road is built on trestlework and peo
ple are in the habit of using this to
get from one point to the other.
Several fatalities have occurred.

Too many of us have mls-lntcrpret-cd
tho lifting of tho food rules and
have translated it as being allowed
tho food wo want instond of tho food
wo need. Our view point is changed
from that of n wnr necessity to n
humnnitnrian appeal. Tho pressing
demand for food is obvious nnd wo
must prepnro o'ursolves to bo rendy

Sweet Clover Grows in PnTor
A survey being conducted by tho
Extension Service of tho University
of Nebraska Collcgo of Agriculture
indicates that sweet clover is rap
idly growing in favor as a pnsturo
crop in Nobrnskn. It has ono dis
tinct ndvnntogo over alfalfa in that
it can bo pastured by nil kinds of
stock. Whilo it probably does not
equnl alfalfa ns a hog feed, it makes
excellent pasturo for cattle, horses
nnd sheep. It enn bo grown on about
any quality of soil in any section of
tho state, nnd it is not difficult to
get started. With proper caro it
will rcseed itself from year to yenr.
It should bo sown in early spring,
preferably in February, nccording to
information gathored thus far. Tho
principal drawback now is tho scarc
ity of seed. For further information
regarding tho, merits of sweet clover
