the trade which throng their

In the present condition, on
many occasions, there are not

purchase tickets, and the good
citizens are forced to stand hud

oftimes almost suffocating in I he
dense atmosphere, or walk I he
platform outside, where the air is
purer, although chilly. The
ladies' and gents' wailing rooms
arc alike in point of accommoda

to-date waiting rooms, with mod
ern conveniences, filled up with
lavatories and toilets in the men's
wailing room, as well as the
women's, furnished by the cor
porations serving the people.
Under existing conditions at the
station the' men and women have
but one toilet in common.
Along wilh the numerous im
provements contemplated, as well
as those already completed and
others in process of completion
by private parlies at this lime in
I he cily, it, would be a graceful
thing if the public- service cor
porations doing business here
would also catch the fever and
make their properties cor
respond with those of private; in
dividuals. If I he railway com
panies would make the improve
ments that they should and such
as their business here in dollars
and cents would justify, it would
be a long step in the direction of
a neater and more beautiful city.
Many persons who have busi
ness in Omaha and reside in
I'lallsnioulh, have spoken of the
exceedingly poor facilities for ac
commodating the passenger traf
llc at the station of-this cily. The
accommodations here have been
compared wilh those furnished in
cities of this class in oilier
localities in the stale, and the
comparison is mil at all favorable
lo Ihe I'lallsnioulh (raveling
public.

I hat he has been making a pretty
thorough tesl of his s I corn and
I hat it is proving a good quality.
Last fall before Ihe freeze he se
lected a number of good ears and
hung Ihem up for (his purpose,
and out of 1(18 grains selected
from a number of ears, only two
have failed lo sprout. It is true
that Mr. Hrovvn says I hat the ears
were favored and given a little
better nllenlioii than the general
run of seed corn.
