RAILROAD NEWS. spent Wed- came night up and Master Mechanic Niland nesday in town. Master Mechanic Likcrt from Omaha Wednesday spent yesterday in town. During the past ten days three ad ditional crews havo been placed in ser vice west out of this terminal, making the number seventeen oxclusivo of tho work train on tho branch. Supt. Anderson nnd Asst. Supt. Mc Keown came down from Cheyonno to day and left this morning on a trip ovor tho North River branch. They were accompanied by Frank Maryott who will open the station at Oshkosh and remain thcro for a time as agent. Heavy rains last evening between here and Sidney caused two washouts on the Union Pacific, ono near Ogalalla, tho other a few miles cast of Sidney, the latter being the worst of tho two. Trafflc was delayed twelve hours, cast bound trains running around by La Salle. That freight trafllc is heavy and is increasing is evidenced by the move ments of trains out of this terminal. For tho twenty-four hours ending at midnight last night twelve trains were sent wcat. Whilo thiB is perhaps more than tho average twenty-four hour record, it is not exceptional. Tho transfer of tho 200 cIbbs of engines to tho hill districts nnd the substitution of the 1G00 nnd 1900 classes has resulted in a decrease of twentv five per cent in tonnngo per train on the Third district. This to some extent accounts for the incrense of train crows, although thero is a noticeable increaso in trafllc. Mr. ChalTeur. how . aro vour auto gla88cs?

Don't Spend $3.50 When Fifty Cents Will do the.Work Pro. W. M. Hayes, Ass't. Secty. of Agriculture of the United Statei says about Stock Foodi "These balanced rations are often found by analyiis to consist of the tailings of mills, elevators and breweries, nilxcil with molasses and salt, to make the compound palatable to the cattle, and one of the largest Stock Food Companies is said to use fine sawdust, finely ground, to cheaply bring up the weight of his product, Instead of buying a superior and expensive balanced ration containing high fattening qualities and acting as a tonic, he has paid a high price for a feed containing, along with ordinary grain, finely ground alfalfa hay and other common food studs, $5.00 to $25.00 per ton, a high percentage of refuse, and non-nutritious matter, some of which may be positively dangerous to the health of his stock."
