Sioux City Journal, 20: Willis M.
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.

Farm Hurcau Field Notes
C. ft. Young. 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

much higher. Tho success of tneso
states and tho groat need of such"
an organization showed tho way clear
to this state. Apparently no ono,
loft tho mooting without feeling that
Nebraska should got Into tho move
ment. To assist farmers Jn getting a start
in hls valuablo strain of oats, the.
Stato University offers for- sale' a
small quantity, of Nebraska No. 21
seed oats nt $1.00 per bushel. This
Is hh improved strain of the Kherson

tho unsuspecting Ford owners as "Ford" parts.
They are not genuine Ford parts. They are made by

Tho Authorized Ford Dealers are. your protection.
As such, wo handle nothing but tho Genuine Ford

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."
