Tlie following from th. South O
uiahH Proven Journal-Sto kman of
Mouday, October -second, i In
teretrtiug to the stockmen of the
northwest and the part relating to
the record breaking shipments o 1
the Burliugtou will be of special In
terest to those who ship over that
roiid, showing as it does the class
of service given shippers. The Her
ald has information, in addition to
that given in the Item below, that
the :-f 7 cars of stock shipped into
South Omaha by the Burlington on
Sunday and Sunday night, Oct. 1.
were ull unloaded before 7 o'clock
Monday morning:
"Just a week after the record for
cattle r.'celpts was broken comes an
other record breaker. Today 61 S
cars, approximately 16.55:1 head or
: sixteen cars and loO head more than
ever arrived on this market in any
one day.
"The total number of enra of all
kinds of stock, 874 cu,rs, Is also a
roccrd breaker, being thirty cars
more than were here on last Monday.
They were divided as follows; catll,-,
fit; hogs, t9: sheep, 217; horsas. 10.
"Another record was bioken today
when the Hurlington road rolled in
a total of o97 cars of slock. This
not only breaks the Burlington rec
ord at this point but is a larger num
ber of cars cf stock than any road
ever brought to South Omaha in any
one day.
"One of the most remarkable fea
tures about these big runs of stock
is the ease with which they are han
dled. This is due largely to the In
creased spat e and lniproed facilities
in the yards, but a great share of
the credit is undoubtedly due to the
new system of weighing the stock.
Track weighing has baen abolished
and as a consequence the entire S74
cars were unloaded and yarded in
good inn and at notini'-was ihcre
any semblance of congestion."
We learn from the Hyannis Tri
bune of last Thin-m!. that Mrs. C.
E Halilberg, niothtr of Mrs. Dr. Barr,
went to ML Pleasant, Iowa, a few
weeks ago to visit a brother, and
was taken seriously sick at that
place the latter part of September,
but was improving last week altho
still confined to her bed.
