That this city is to have the Icng j plant need not he dilayc:'. There is
talked of Alfalfa Meal mill now i no douht that thin mill and others
seems to be an assured fact, as the
committee of farmers and merchants
of this vicinity, appointed by Presi
dent Falter of the commercial club,
met night before last and affected an
organization for this purpose that
will be permanent and will proceed
at once to the business of establish
ing this manufacturing concern and
disposing of the product.
At the last night's meeting a tem
porary chairman was chosen In the
person of Julius Pitz with II. A.
Schneider as temporary secretary.
The matter of organization was dis
cussed pro and con for some time by
the members present and the com
pany was incorporated with a capital
ot $25,000; $15,000 of this to he
paid up In shares of $100 each, with
the stipulation that not more than
ten shares can be held by any one
person. The name selected for the
company Is to be the l'lattsmonth
Alfalfa Meal company and as a first
step toward the advancement of the
plan two committees were selected
to sell Btock. The following gentle
men were chosen to handle the
stock In this city: J. P. Falter, A. L.
Tldd, F. E. Schlater and II. A. Schnei
der, while the committee for the
county Is composed of Julius PItz,
Luke Wiles, Fred Noltlng and A. E.
Todd.
The above named gentlemen will
proceed to push the sale of the stock
at once and It is expected that there
will be no difficulty whatever In get

The news reaches Plattsmouth
over the teelphoue this morning that
the Hurlington boiler makers and
their helpers at Havelock quit work
this morning pending the decision
of the company coming to their terms
as per requested made a few days
ago. In this particular department
the employeers of the road wish to
abolish the piece work system that
has been In use all along the line
for some years past. The company
evidently has refused to approve of
such terms, and the pending strike
was pulled off this morning and all
boiler makers and helpers are out.
We are also informed that about
forty-five men were discharged yes
terday, these men being employed in
various departments and the entire
shop time was cut to eight hours
per day. We are at the same time

only thing for the people of Platts-

of them to increase their percentage
of alfalfa as fast as possible as there
Is a good profit In the business for
all concerned, the demand for the

being enormous In comparison with
the output, which production is at
present compartlvely small. At pres

tutlon In this country in honor of
Dean Hutchins, president of the unt
versity, Dean Reed of the literary
college, Dean Cooley of the engineer

function for the members of the
Michigan Alumni who possess a re
markably strong organization in this
state and who always turn out with
a most loyal display of enthusiasm
whenever there Is any.demand made
by their Alma Mater. Hon. R. B
Windham who is vice president of
the association in Nebraska, was
passenger for Omaha this morning

1858, and Dr. W. B. Elster, who is
a graduate of then dental college of
the class of 1890, will also attend

HIS store is here for something
more, and better, than merely selling goods,
and taking the money for them. We know
that's the idea generally
held about a business
often by the men who
arc conducting it; simply
the exchange of money
for merchandise.
Now our idea of it is
different; we're here to
see that you not only get
something for your
money, but to see that
it's what youought to get
for it to protect your in
terests in the matter of
value.
Our showing for this
season is extraordinary.

Modern Hen House.
One of the most modern, and in
fact, without a doubt, the best hen
house In Cass county, will now be
found on the farm of Julius Pitz,
south of Plattsmouth. From the
present price of chickens and the
usual high price of eggs in winter
season, Mr. Pitz has wisely came to
the conclusion that the Nebraska hen
should have better care in the cold
season to induce her to come to the
front and continue her gocd work
when the high price is on. The new
hen house in very conveniently ar
ranged for the accomodation of both
the feathered ladyship and the at
tendant, having low roosts In place
of high ones, with proper appliances
for raising them to the roof for
convenience when the house clean
ing time is on. This also prevents
the chickens from injury, which of
ten occurs when flying to and fro
from the high roost. The new build
ing is 20x22 in size, with half of
the roof and the entire south side
all glnss, which will nford both light
nnd warmth. Mr. Pitz claims the
honor of the architecture and Haxter
Smith the carpenter. No doubt Mr.
Pitz will be well repaid for the money
expended in a very short time.
Tlio Dandelion Font.
As the destruction of the dande
lion crop seems to be agitating the
minds of many already this' spring,
we clip the following from the Lin
coln Evening News on the subject:
"Early indications are that the dan
delion crop of 1910 will exceed any
in recent years. This prediction can
be easily made good if lawn owners
will only take proper care of the
tender plants. The insertion of a
knife blade Just below the crown
which contains the young buds, one;
resorted to confidently as a mer.is
of destruction, is now highly recom
mended as a means of propagation, j
The cutting off of the tops leaves
the roots free to go to work and
develop several additional stems,
each bearing a cluster of seed buds.
Gasoline is also an excellent tonic.
At first it seems to wither the plant,
but this is apparently only on the
tops. The root stems appear to ab
sorb and grow fat upon the treat
ment. Some esperato souls with
no appreciation of the beauty of na
ture have tried various sorts of acids,
which usually result in the cultiva
tion of a neat and growing bare spot
wherever applied. Persons who have
been overlooked by nature in the
distribution of the dandelion plants
will find their neighbors very ae-1
comcdaiing in the matter of fur
nishing slips for cultivation. The
high price of living is due to the use
of meats, and as a substitute for
these it would not b amiss to tr.r
cooking the dandelion tops as green.
Before the plants became so numer
ous these greens were esteemd as a
delicacy, but familiarity has appar
ently bred a profound contempt."
The T. J. Sokols Improve.
The T. J. Cokol society have bee:
making some improvements in their
gymnasium department at their hall
in the western part of the city. The
T. J. Sokols are one of the most
.vti.e polities of the city and are
u. , .;yq Li larch for something new
for tuna p nr.ncement and tne eu
joyiiitni of ;;..ir membership. They
have just c-nii)lt.' the installation
of a new laio double shov.r bath,
both hot and cold water. This s
placed in the basement under the
main gymnasium room.
An observing farmer says that if
the next new moon is dry, then pre
pare for some dry farming this sum
mer, lie says further, that if the
point of the moon turns up far
enough so. that you can hang a pow
der horn on it, then it means dry
weather. When the new moon ap
pears we want some one to climb op
and try the powder horn experiment.
I'ine Music.
A hand of five strolling musicians
visited this city yesterday and go
ing about the town discoursed sweet
strains to the happy multitudes that
thronged our streets, playing every
thing in the musical calendar front
11 Trovatores to "cuddle up a little
closer," and In the afternoon a num
ber of the young men of the com
munity got together in a bunch like
grapes nnd plotted and conspired to
pull off a dance in the evening, but
owing to the fact that this Is the
middle of the week, and pay day Is
near at hand, the encouragement to
eo ahead with this plan was too
meager to justify it.
George Hall was among those who
took the afternoon train for the me
tropolis tod.iy.
