If all the land used by six Nebras
a railroads for right of way pur
poses were put into a single strip one
mile wide, it would reach from Lin
coln to Omaha in one direction and
rom Lincoln to Hastings in the other,
a total distance of 1G5 miles.
This would make 1.C00 farms of
00 acres each and have enough left
over for half a dozen big ranches, it
it were all farmed to wheat and th'
average production were 25 bushels to
an acre, it would yield enough of that
cereal to fill 2,040 freight cars with a
capacity of 1,000 bushels each.
If alfalfa were raised on this acre
age devoted to right of way purposes,
it would produce, at the rate of three
tons per acre, a yearly crop of 310,000
tons.
Two contending armies using all
the modern paraphernalia of war
could maintain trench systems ex
tending for a distance of over 100
miles and keep several' millian soldiers
busy within the area which represents
the total right of way acreage of the
six railroad companies referred to.
These ideas are suggested by fig
ures in the possession of Secretary
Bernacker of the state board of equal
ization, taken from reports filed by
the Burlington, Union Pacific, North
western, M. & O., Rock Island and
Grand Island roads. The Missouri Pa
cific is not included because its fig
ures are not complete.
Altogether, the right of way area
for the six roads amounts to 105.591
acres, or approximately ICS square
miles. This is equal to one-half the
total area of Sarpy county and about
29 per cent of the acreage of Lancas
ter county. It is divided as follows:
Burlington, 45.976 acres; Union Pa
cific, 30,544; Northwestern, 19,210; M.
& O., 4,191; Rock Island, 3,r10; Grand
Island, 2,054.
The figures were secured from the
railroads in order to compare them
with reports furnished by county as
sessors in making up the railroad tax
valuations for the current year.

LATE REPORTS INSIST
VILLA WAS INJURED
El Paso, Tex., April 6. The fol
lowing statement by General Gavira,
who claims it i3 a telegram fr om Ltir
ranza, confirms the report that Villa
has been injured.
"I have confirmed from witnesses,
among others, one of my own soldiers
who was made prisoner at Namiquipa,
that the bandit. Villa, was wounded
in the knee so that he was unable to
mount his horse."
Another message to Gavira from
Luis Gutierrez, Carranza's field com
mander, says: "Villa is fleeing, seri
ously wounded, and he has divided his
main body into several small bands."

Ten reasons why you should
buy this sweeper in preference
to any other:
1st Height only six inches, sweeps and cleans successfully under all modern furniture.
2nd Finished in beautiful mahogany; 3 coats baked on.
3rd Nozzle hinged to the body of the sweeper. Impossible to take off or put back
wrong.
4lJi Vacuum box made of steel air tight and no warping or cracking.
5th Dust bag heavy mercerized cloth mounted on steel frame with thick rubber gas
ket and wide opening at frame; easily emptied.
6th- Litter pans -wide and deep and made of steel. Both dump with one push of
lever.
7th - Nozzle shoe made of steel and nickle plated. Running machine over tacks and
door sills will not dent this shoe.
8th - Bearings sturdy auto rollers that wear a lifetime and assures machine operating
smoothly and easily all the time.
9th Design of machine is novel and particularly attractive, (covered by patent)
10th The big feature Wonder Worker Automatic Brush adjustment. This brush which
is 9 inches in length is located between and operated by four small rub
ber tired driving wheels and is equipped with an automatic spring, made of gen
uine piano wire. This spring tension on the brush, which is entirely independent
of the four driving wheels, gently holds the brush in position for perfect sweep
ing on long, short or medium nap rugs or carpets. This brush movement is en
tirely automatic and there are no levers to be moved or adjustments to be made
on any part of the machine to do perfect sweeping.
This is positively the only combination vacuum sweeper ever invented having
a brush which automatically adjusts itself to sweep perfectly on all kinds of
floor coverings.
Corne in any day we'll be glad to demonstrate.
