McCorkle, the veteran Box Butte county Ituul man, lie statcdtto the Herald reporter that he has made three trips in the last fout weeks over the Burlington and Union Pacific and by auto through' the eastern mid southern parts ot the state. From Broken Bow to Omaha on the Burlington the crops are above the av erage. The Platte valley bus a good crop of co. n. On an auto trip from Grand Island to the Republican river he saw good crops, around Hastings the crops being particulary fine. From Holdredge west on the Burlington the crops are very badly damaged by the drouth. From Bertrand east they are fine. His opinion is that Nebraska will have far above the average in the money value of crops this yenr - In Box Butte county he states that the corn and potatoes are the best in twenty-four years. Box Butte county and surrounding country have prac tically the only potatoes in the state, the eastern portions having a potato failure this year. In Box Butte coun ty the early small grain was hurt by the dry June weather but there is so&ie very fine spring and winter wheat, oats and barley where properly farmed. Methodist Pastor Arrives Rev. Dr. J. L. B. Jones, cently appointed pastor of re the Alliance M. E. Church, arrived Tuesday from Elkins, -W. Va.j where he was pastor of the First Methodist church.

Land Office Notes A case of much interest to school teachers who have homesteads was re cently decided by the secretary of the interior. Effie M. Walker, in Hyde couuty, South Dakota, was teaching school about four miles from her borne stead and living on the homestead from Friday .to Monday of each week. She had built a comfortable house on the tract; had broken five acres which was tinder cultivation, and had furnished the house. Tbe entry was commutted and she sold the land. Later a special agent of the government recommended can cellation of the proof on account of in sufficient evidence and cultivation. The general land office ordered the proof cancelled but after a review ol the case the secretary of the interior ordered the proof sustained.

Rockwell vs Clyde T. Barlow, Genuine Crude Oil Burner. Owing to the cheapness of crude oil and the unlimited sup ply of the same, many attempts have been made to invent a crude oil bui'ner for cook stoves, ranges and furnaces. Other at tachments have been invented for the use of refined oil, which is more expensive, but the only successful attachment for the use of crude oil is the "O. K." Crude Oil burner, manufactured by M. H. Spere of Grand Island and sold in Alliance by W. M, Wilson. 201 J3ox Butte avenue. Mr. opere was m Alliance a few days , this week and gave the Hdrald reporter some interesting Information about thiS" invention. It can be used i.n any stove, range or furnace without drilling holes or otherwise defacing the same' in any way. Crude .oil can be furnished to customers in Al liance at six cents per gallon, which by using the "O. K." burner will make a saving of from thirty to fifty per cent in the cost of fuel, either for bak ing or heating in any stove. This saving will be of great in terest to the men who have the fuel bills to pay, while the. wo men will, of course, bo more than pleased with the cleanli ness, there being no ashes, soot or smoke, and with the ease with which the fire is started and reg ulated. Baking is brought to perfec tion with this burner. Mr. Spere brought to The Herald office yesterday a loaf of bread which had been baked in thirty-five minutes by Mrs. W. H. Zehrung, for whom he had just installed a burner. The bread was .certain ly baked "to the queenT taste", and would cause any woman to become enthusiastic over the work of the burner. To give an idea how tlie.se burners take where they have been demonstrated, Mr. Spere showed us a Si, 000 order for them, recently received at Des Moines, which he said was his first order in Iowa. Persons who are interested are invited to call at "Wilson's store, opposite The Herald of fice, and see the "O. K." demon strated. Born to Mr. and Mrs. Hal Pardey this morning, a baby girl.
