Samples are taken each day rom the milk received at the station and twice a mouth tests are made to determine the exact percentage of butterfat which the milk contains.

Sweeping reduction in Jackets; Cnpfcs artfl Mll'llnefy ill Re'tlrile's MoOarty Residence Burned. The residence of V. E. McCarty was almost totally destroyed bv fire Tuesday night. The origin of the fire is somewhat of a mystery as there .was no one in the house at the time it Btarted, the entire fam ily being down at the depot as Mrs. McCarty and the children were going to take No. 4 for Cozad. Their theory however is that the drapery on the dresser must have taken fire from a lamp aittinir underneath it and after smoulder ing for a time had broken out in ilames which spread in the other draperies. The fire had gained so mucb headway before an alarm was sent in that it was impossible to save the house but the piano and a large part of the furniture in the front room was saved. The bal ance ot the furniture, silverware and all of the family's clothing except what they were taking with them to Cozad were totally des troyed. The furniture was insured for $1,000 and the house for $500. See what Happens!
