Yesterday morning a committee : from the Loyal club of Omaha came down to look over the situation here with a view of holding their annual outing in this city, which has been spoken of so highly in the metropolis as one of the attractive spots in this part of Nebraska. In the committee were President L. O. Ilolmberg, Chris Hansen and T. F. Toye, and these gentlemen were very well pleased with the outlook here and will, if pos sible, make arrangements to hold the outing at the T. J. Sokol park in this city on August 2'.th. The club is a strong organization of some 250 members and is of a semi-political nature, and on the oc casion of the outing the members ex pect to bring their families with them for one day of rest and recreation in the natural beauties of this little city, and the members of the club are among the best residents of Omaha and feel that they can find an ideal place for holding the picnic in Platts mouth. As the speakers for the occasion. Mayor James Dahlman of Omaha, Congressman Charles O. Lobeck and Hon. John L. Kennedy have been in vited, and have accepted the invita tion extended to them and will be present to address the gathering, which will number nearly 1,000 of the visitors, in addition to the members of the Sokol society, their families and friends. A special train will be run over the Burlington from Omaha to convey the visitors to and from this city. The visitors will be accom panied by a large band, as well as an orchestra, and will discourse sweet music during the day for the benefit of the party of picnickers. As a feature of the day fifty prizes, aggregating $300 will be offered in the different events, such as running and jumping, as well as the different races. This club has been debating whether to hold the outing in this city or at Bennington, but the committee is much more impressed with this city, as it is more convenient to the metropolis and the natural surround ings much more pleasing. The com mittee assures, the citizens that they will not regret having the Loyal club and their friends here, as everything will be looked after in fine shape and a royal time will be assured to every one. This morning Lafe Nelson, residing south of this city, met with a very painful accident that resulted in the loss of the end of the middle finger of his right hand, which was nipped off by a mower with which he was work ing, the injured, man was brought into this city, where the injured mem ber was dressed and the patient made as comtortable as possible, although suffering considerable pain from the injury.

PLOW EARLY AND DEEPLY AND BURY THE HESSIAN FLY We feed 50,000,000 bushels of good wheat to the Hessian fly every year, to say nothing of what it costs us to feed our chinch bugs and other pests, and have only ourselves to blame, There is only one subject in which all farmers agree, and that is, high taxes. They want pay for sheep killed by the neighbor's dogs. Why not ask pay for the wheat killed by the neighbor's Hessian flies? Get together. Every neighborhood should have a Farmers' club, and ap point a Hessian fly committee. What to do right now. Cut the wheat high, above the second joint. Remove the grain from the field and stack it somewhere else. The fly is now in the resting stage and the safest way and only sure plan is for every farmer to plow every acre deeply and thorough ly within two weeks after harvest turning under the stubble completely. and then dracriring early. This will fix Mr. Fly. Team work is necessary. Teach the school children to look for the fly, and report it at every stage. Appoint a captain in every school district, who should be the best wheat grower in the neighborhood. This early complete plowing will not only reduce the fly, but will be a great benefit to next year's crop. It does not let the field dry out after harvest, and gets it ready to hold all the moisture which is so badly needed in most sections. It is stated that other things being equal, three acres plowed in July are worth five acres plowed in September.

TOLEDO 750.00 Overland Model 83 Things to Consider in Buying a Car! SERVICE Every Overland Car sold in this vicinity since is still in service. 1908 PRICE No car today gives as much real value for the money as the Overland. You can satisfy yourself on this subj'ect by comparing specifications with competitive cars. UP-KEEP No car was ever built that did not at some time or other need some repair. Repairs for the Overland can be oltained the same day as ordered, and at prices far below what other manu facturers charge. This fact does not occur to the average buyer until he needs some parts and finds it takes from one to three weeks to get parts and in many cases at prices two and three times what the Over land asks. Automobile factories have declined in numbers from 270 in 191 1 to 1 19 in 1915. In other words 151 factories out of 270 have quit making cars in the last four years, and well informed men in the automobile business predict that the change in the next two years will be still more startling, which means that it will be still more difficult and still more delay on parts for cars that are not being man ufactured at that time. There is only one manufacturing plant in the world that produces more cars than the Overland Company, which has increased its pro duction from 400 cars in 1908 to over 100,000 cars per year now. If the Overland car had not given far better average satisfaction to the buyer in the past it would not have outstripped all its competitors, many of which were in the automobile field twice as long. o
