Pritchard, county auditor, and P. J. Brechtel, Liberty township assessor, went to Dakota City yesterday to make assessments on tho personal property on about 4,000 acres of Iowa land which lies In NeorasKa. lhe IoWa land lied about fifteen miles south of Dakota City and between the east boundary of Omaha creek and the Missouri river. It was placed tlfcro by the Missouri river, and was taken from the Iowa side. It has been steadily deposited on the Nebraska side of the river for the past fifteen years, and the supreme court has held that the old river bed is the boundary line. This decision places a part of the Missouri river within tho state of Iowa, and gives Woodbury county about 4,000 acres of land in Nebraska. The land was identified after it had been trans posed by trees and land marks. Frank Mnlby, A. W. Wycoff, John H. Scott and W. W. Stevens, all of Sioux City, were among the owners of the land. The assessed valuation of the land has been placed at $10 to $50 an, acre, according to its condition. Prior to 1917 it was assessed at $ nn acre. Emerson Enterprise: Miss Rose, M.

County Agent On January 23rd. at tho StatoFarm Wlureau meeting, tho Nebraska asso ciation .through its County FarmTui- rcau representatives voteu to join mo American Federation of Farm Ru reaus. Tho movement also embodies tho strengthening of our Stato asso ciation by having a paid secretary and sufficient funds with which, to do effective work. This meant that a considerable quantity of monoy had to bo raised, and that n membership campaign of tho organized counties would havo to bo conducted. ' To ninny of tho dolegates present, this seemed impossible. At this point in tho meeting, Mr. J. R. Howard, prcsidont of the Amer ican Federation, made his address. Mr. Howard told of tho organization meeting in Chicago last November when thlrty-thrco states represent ing fcvory section of tho union mot to discuss plans for uniting. Ho told of tho wonderful unity which exist ed among tho delegates, for so wide ly a gathered meeting, with its wide ly' varied interests; and how men, will'" o tako n stand for thTo basic tlitngh h vital to agriculture united to ta'm. .p tho farmers1 National problems. This organization was not to be made permanent 'until next March, and then unless ton states had jratlfied its constitution. Nebraska was tno fourteenth stato, and others arc, as fast as they hold their annual meetings. It was to Mr. Howard and other members of the American Federation, as much as any other source, that wo owo tho debt for tho final repealing of our so-called "Day Light Saving Law." Mr. P. C. Crock er, president of tho Nebraska asso ciation, wiis a delegate to Washington to help bring tho necessary pressure to hear. In Mr. Howard's talk1 ho told how Iowans had just como out iof her campaign with a membership of about 125,000 farmers, each paying a uio memuorsnip or $5,00 a year into mo state associations. That in ad dition to this they had made a vol untary offering of $200,000.00. Illi nois is tho only other state up to tms timo tnat has put on a member-1 ship campaign. Their success has been equal to that of Iowa. Kansas and Mirinesota arc laying plans for their camnaicrn. Mr. Howard explained that while TV(V.Mi1".JWJ 1 Haph W-C11PV n.

THE HOUSE OF SERVICE at once to tako steps in 'purchasing the bridge, and declares if the propo sition is submitted to the people It will carry by a large majority. His letter, n part, follows: "The .Swift ownership and control of the Combi nation bridge I havo laid before tho attorney general and the deportment of justice. I firmly believe that with in a year's time the Swift interests will be obliged to dispose or protend to dispose of its majority holdings in this concern. Now is the time for the city to act, if it ever intends to act, before the bridge company car ries through some plan of pretended organization or sule. Under chapter 140, page 161, session laws of the Thirty-seventh general assembly of the stato of Iowa, Sioux City has am ple power to purchase and operate the Combination bridge. Under tho section in question cities aro vested with the power to purchase highway or commnation oriages across naviga ble boundary streams. This is ef- iuciuu uy mo city council passing a resolution declaring its wish that the city purchase the bridge. -If the council and tho bridge ownora can agree on tho value of tho bridge, then tho amount of tax paid over by the city in the original construction of the bridgo is deducted therefrom, and tho remainder shall bo the pur chase price. In the event that a purchase prlco cannot bo agreed upon, appraisers are named and tho hridgo is appraised at its real value. Tho question shall then bo submitted to the peoplo together with the propos ed tax levy to pay tho purchase prlco and the said proposition must carry by a majority vote. In tho ovont of purchase tho city is given ample power to operate tho same as a free bridge, or charge enough toll to maintain tho same, and to create a Binklng fund to Cover the purchaso price. 1 believe tho council, with out delay, should .pass the resolution contemplated by statute and follow tho matter. I bollcvo if tho purchaso proposition is presented to the public at a fair valuo for both nubile nnd bridgo owners, allowing for, tho fact that Dakota county will bo ready to contribute to tho purchase, that it will carry by a largo majority. I own no property in Dakota county, and what fees I hoye received in this matter would not begin to compen sate mo for the work I havo done. I shall bo glad to tako tho matter up with members of the city council at any time." H L. Tho Herald for ALL the. News. M. E. Clinrch Notes , ' Rev, & A. braise, Tutor, .
