The foreign countries have been “do
ing without” like the city newspapers
say we can do. That’s the reason they
are willing to pay prices that we will
not, but our turn comes after them.
When we have done without long
enough and the people have to start
buying again, which won’t be long, then
you are going to see prices that will
make your head swim.
if Since people started eating substi
tutes, canned milk, Oleo Margarine,
make believe Karo Syrup, etc., the
doctors of O’Neill have used up two
automobiles each. We either have to
f eat good food or pay'the doctor bills.

The newspapers in the big cities print
what their readers like to read. That
is the reason they print faked up stories
about all the sugar there is, all the po
tatoes there is and that the prices will
soon come down. It is a fine thing to
read if it was true, but by this time most
of the people are opening their eyes and
they are finding out that instead of
down it is up, and higher and higher.
Don’t be caught napping, load up and
keep loaded and the high cost of living
won’t bother you.

lunting near the house one day last
peek.

inder a wood pile near their chicken
louse. Rinehold put his gun down to

pill have to be amputated.
N DEFENSE OF BARNEY HYNES
Last week’s parrot conveyed the
tarfling intelligence that “Barney
lynes was on our streets Wednes
lay.” Mr. Hynes has been a resident
f O’Neill for nearly three months and
onsequently has to use the streets oc
asionally. He has as much right to
■e upon the streets, either for business
r pleasure, as any other citizen. It
s one of the rights accorded him by
he constitution. Thsre is no law in
he land requiring Mr. Hynes to use
nly the alleys when he comes down
own. He may even use the streets in
from of the parrot roost if he so de
sires, without violating any law, but
if the parrot objects and comments
every time Mr. Hynes uses the streets
Mr. Hynes is entirely welcome to use
the streets down in our part of town
and nothing will be said about it.
SCOTT TOWNSHIP TO
BUILD MODERN HIGHWAY.
Scott township this summer will
construct five miles of the most mod
ern and up-to-date highway in Holt
county. The highway will begin at
the section line north of Opportunity
and will extend on due north five
miles to the Scottville church. The
contract for the highway was awarded
to Tom Murphy at a meeting^of the
township board Monday afternoon,
which is a sufficient guarantee that it
will be properly constructed. Mr.
Murphy will begin work on the road
sometime next week. The highway
will be forty-eight feet wide from
ditch line to ditch line and the grade
top width will be twenty-four feet for
the entire distance. Every bridge and
culvert on the new road will be
twenty-four feet wide, eliminating the
possibility of accidents from running
1
off the grade at culvert and ditch sites
after night. The new highway is the
first portion of a program of road
building contemplated by the town
ship for the next few years. Next
year the road will be extended one
mile north of the Scottville church and
then east to the west line of Steel
Creek township, from which place
later on it will be extended to the Red
bird bridge. The Willowdale township
board has promised to connect the
new grade up with the graded high- ,
way extending four miles south from
Opportunity by building north from ]
Opportunity to the southern terminus
ocf the Scott township road. Grattan ,
township also is extending its graded j
roads to connect up with the Opportu- ,
nity road and a section of roadway
three miles long is all that remains to 1
be graded to connect the road systems ,
of Willowdale, Iowa and Grattan with ,
the Scott road. Iowa township has j
been requested to assist in improving ]
this three mile link. When the new i
road is completed northeast Holt
county will have a highway to O’Neill
and also to Lynch unequalled by any
other highway in Nebraska and a ^
road that will be open and suitable for
the most heavy hauling and for auto c
traffic at all times of the year.
HOGS ARE DRIVEN TO MARKET
Farmers and stockmen of northeast
3rn Holt county are driving their hogs
:o the O’Neill market to save the high
:ost of transportation, and also to do
iway 'with a considerable percentage
>f the shrink that usually results from
lauling. Joseph Schollmeyer of Scott
ownship Saturday and Sunday drove
ieventy-five twenty-six miles, from
lis stock farm to O'Neill, arriving
lere Sunday evening. The animals
vere allowed to loaf along at the rate
>f about a mile an hour, during driv
ng time, and came through the trip in
excellent condition and with but little
ihrink. Mr. Schollmeyer estimated
hat the expense of hauling the hogs
could have exceeded $125 and that he
could have had an average shrink of
ive pounds to the animal in addition,
le topped the local market at $13.50
londay morning.
