RETURNS FROM OHIO
Harvey Myera arrived last Sun
day on his return from a visit of
several weeks In Ohio. He stopped
In Indiana, and a couple of dayB in
Chicago on his return. Although he
had a pleasant visit among relatives
and other friends, he wns glad to
get back to Nebraska. In conversa
tion with him we learn that prices
are high In the east, as well as In
the west, and the price of land still
going up. On March Uth he attend
ed an auction sale of western hors
es at Akron, Ohio. One team.
weighing about 1,300 each, sold for
$440; another team, weighing about
1,440 each, sold for $460; and one
six-year-old horse, weighing about l,
?00, sold for $247.50. In Indiana he
found that one hundred dollars per
cre was being offered for land that
sold for sixty-five dollars when he
was there three years ago.
While In Chicago, Mr. Myers ex
changed the photographic outfit, with
which he took a good many farm and
ranch views last year, for a much
better one, paying the difference in
cash. He expects to spend a good
deal of his time the coming summer
doing view work.
Mr. R. J. Lawrence, manager of
the Alliance Electric Company, ha
been confined to his home with a
threatened attack of pneumonia for
some time. He Is much better the
last few days and able to be about
again.
BIG SHIPMENT OF PAPER
The Alliance Herald, with the larg
est circulation in western Nebraska,
uses a great deal of print paper;
and as the Dalton Herald and Lingle
Herald, which are also partly pub
lished in Alliance, use a great deal
of paper, large shipments are receiv
ed by the Herald Publishing Com
pany. This week a shipment of
nearly two tons of the finest print
paper was received. Although the
print paper used by The Herald pa
pers is much better and consequent
ly more expensive than that used by
competitors, we have found that it
pays to use only the best and ex
pect to continue to use good print
paper.
The Lingle Herald, Just established
by The Herald Publishing Company
at Lingle, Wyoming, started out last
week with a good list of subscribers
i. nl a fair amount of advertising
uatronage. It Is the Intention of
ihe publishers to make The Lingle
Herald the leading weekly newspa
per of the North Platte valley and
we feel sure that those who have
seen the paper will agree with us
when we state that It contained
more news last Issue than many oth
er similarly situated papers usually
do. Lingle is In a good, growing
country and has every prospect for
making a big town.

Lincoln, Nebr.. March 4, 1911. The
ferver and hilarity of the first ev
ening's session in the House Wed
nesday nigbt furnished entertainment
for everybody, it was a busy ses
slqn too, and witnessed the close of
the introduction of bills. Some of
the members kicked on meeting nights
out It always seems to satisfy the
taxpayers.
Speaking of bills, the Thirty-second
session has done fairly well. With
702 bills In the House and within 4
of 400 in the Senate, it is obvious
that there will be no time for idle
ness. o
This calls to mind the time hon
ored sifting committee, the com
ittee which usually consists of two
members from each congressional
district, which takes the whole batch
of bills on the general file and re
ports for passage only those which
a baker's dozen of men concluded
shall have their chance for life on
the third reading. The Senate is
already working on a sifting commit
tee and it is probable that the
House will get busy this week.
The public looks with some suspi
cion on the sifting committee be
cause a great many meritorious
measures are killed by that commit
tee every session. It Is to be hop
ed, however, that the better meas
ures will get n show for their white
alley.
The committee on apportionments
is getting busy and in a few days
the fruits of their labors will be
known. It is understood that this
legislation will be highly satisfactory
to the state, and thoroughly non-political.

WESTERN RYE GRASS
George E. Douglas called at The
Herald office laat Saturday with a
bunch of western rye grass, of which
he baa about seven ai res on hia
place southeast of Alliance. Aa
many of our readers are aware, he
ia a great hand to experiment with
crops, bis farm for a number of
years being a sort of private agri
cultural experiment station. He says
be haa experimented with twenty or
more different kinds of i rasses,
and finds that the western rye grass
la away ahead of anyth. else he
haa ever tried for mis country. It
la a splendid kti ther for graz
ing or hay. Two ops of hay can
be cut any ordinary year, the first
crop yielding about a ton and one
half to the acre and the second crop
a ton. It keeps green all summer,
even in the dry years.
The sample brought to this office
was a buncb pulled up by the roots,
the top growth having been made
after the hay was cut last year. It
has the appearance of being quite
nutritious, not being wiry like some
drouth-resisting grasses. Mr. Doug
las will sow fifteen acres more of
this grass this year, and intenda to
add to his screage of it year by
year until he has a hundred acres
or more. We are pleased to learn
that a number of other Box Butte
county farmers will begin planting It
this year.
