II03li:il FLOODED AGAIN
A cloudburst in tho vicinity of
Walthill and Winnebago Monday
night flooded the county north of
those places, forced. Omnha, creek out
of -its banks, and caused .the greatest
flood damage to the residents of Ho
mer that the town has e,ver exper
ienced in its history. .
The water was from three to five
feet deep all over the original town
site, and practically every residence
and business house in that part of
the town was flooded with two to
three feet of water. ,
The creek began to rise about. 2
o'clock in the morning, and the alarm
was sent out by phone, and the fire'
bell was rung to call, the volunteer I
firemen out to aid in rescuing fami-.
lies that were marooned in their
homes iri the lower part of the town.
An hour later tho rushing waters had
risen until it began to carry houses
from their foundations. Mrs. M. L.
Lothrop, telephone operator, was
forced to abandon her station when
the water reached the switchboard1
and put .it out of commission. I
Twenty or more houses were moved
off their foundations, and some of
them were badly .wrecked by the rush
ing torrent. All the banks . and
stores weie filled to n depth of two
or three feet of water, and untold
damage was caused to equipment :ind
stocks.
Much of the livestock in the town
and vicinity was drowned or washed
away by the rushing waters. Edw.
Eichorst, living in the north part of
town, lost about twenty head of fat
hogs and four milk cqws.
Tho railroad tracksnorth of town
were washed out and there has been
no train service since, although a
Work train has been making every
effort to restore serviae on the Bari
lington.
The water subsided by Monday
evening and a general cleanup 'has
been going on since. .Telephone
communication has been established,
and the repdrts of the dam ago to
property can hardly bo believed by
one who has not seen- tho situation
there. One' thing to be thankful for,
there was no loss of 'life. "

Scernl Substitutes for Potatoes
Cereals supplemented with milk
and vegetables or fruit, make good
substitutes for high priced potatoes,
says tho Nebraska College of Agri
culture. Rice, macaroni, spaghetti,
corn meal, oatmeal, barley, etc.
plus vegetables and milk, will da fc
large degree equal potatoes in tho
diet, at last for grown peoplo, and
thev cost much lers than VMitntnnii nt
tho present price. Children prob-f
ably need more milk whon potatoes
are absent from the tnble. Green'
vegetables are here and canned pro
ducts are available at much lower
price than potatoes. An occasional
mess of navy beans will help the fam
ily to forget potatoes. Many houso
wives are now cooking without pota
toes and the family Is' hardly miss
ing them."
