Homes (Jnnvn Apples.
The applo crop In Lincoln county
his year has been unusually large,
and the apples, though of good quality
are almost a drug on the market.
Growers are not prepared to store and
hold them, hence they are forced on
the market at a low prlco. The mar
ket is further glutted by parties in the
eust part of the stato bringing car
loads of apples here and retailing
them. n
....Much Stock will bo Fed
It is generally conceded that there
will not bo much marketable corn In
Lincoln county and that tho farmers
will need feed it. With this purposo
in view thero is an Increased demand
for feeders. In talking with a south
side farmer ho named a half dozen
farmers who would feed small bunches
of cattle fifteen to twemy-flvo head.
What Is true of the south side Is
probably true all over the county.

Tho state board of educational

lease In sixteen counties.
In Lincoln county thero aro 74,003
acres of leased school land, and the
avorago lease price per acre per year
is six and three-quarter centB. The
greater part of this land Is suitable
principally for grazing, though a few
of tho 117 sections are good farm
or hay land.
Too Much Publicity
A-sllenco thnt can bo heard round
tho world has fallen suddenly upon
the president's matrimonial prepara
tions. Someone has been dropping a
hint, It mny safely bo guessed. It
takes no great amount of Investigat
ing to discover that whllo' vox populi
assents to tho view that his marriage
1s the president's own business, thoro
is a very general hope that, in viow
of all the circumstances, the proceed
ings will not bo much rubbed into
tho public oye nnd ear. Tho party at
tho Philadelphia ball gamo was a mis
take. Tho friends of tho president
have evidently grown aware of that.

The United States ha?s less than 6 of tho.
world's population, yet it has more than 64 of
all the world's telephones. The five states of
Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota and the Dakotas have
more telephones than all Great Britain.
The City of New York has more telephones than
all of Franco and Spain combined. Chicago" has
more telephones than all of Austria.
iie Cost of Operating
The telephone companies in this country pay
double the wages for the same kind of work that
is paid in Europe, and telephone equipment costs
a great deal more here.
Fully half of the European telephone exchanges
are closed at night and on Sundays and holidays.
It is the general rule in this country to give all
night and all-day Sunday telephone service,
When the efficiency of the service and- the cost
of producing, it is considered, American local and
long distance telephone rates are by far the low
est in the world.
