New York, March 19. An official of
the conference committee of railroad
managers announced at 12: l". a. m.
that the railroad strike was off.
A few minutes after the announce
ment was made the railroad managers
went from the Grand Central terminal
to the conference hotel and were
joined immediately by the mediators.
They refused to make any statement
on the way to the meeting room.
It was presumed the announcement
would be made through Secretary
Lane.

from the 1910 crop raised on 100 acres of Chase County Nebraska
land. Mr. Peter M. jcrgensen, of Avoca, Nebraska, bought this land
from two yars ato, for $20.00 per acre. He had the land broken
out dt a cost of 4I2.50 pcracre. This made the land including break
ing cost Mi. Jorgenscn $2250.00. It was rented for the year 1910
on tin- terms that the owner "was to receive one-fourth of the crop
delivered to market, this check does not represent the total rent by
aboit $50.00 and means that the crop grown on the 1 00 acres brought
$2600.00 or $500.00 more than the original cost of the land.
This is not an'exception, we have dozen of Chase County land
owners doing this same thing year after year.
Do you know that Chase County led all Nebraska Counties on
yied of wheat? The past year the average being 30 bushels per
acre.

man had a farmer's grain in his ele
vator ten days he would have to take
out a ware-house license and keep
account each day of the amount of
grain received and shipped and report
to the railway commission. It would
make a lot of extra work for the
local elevator man; and a lot of ex
tra work and a new lot of high
priced employes at Lincoln and ac
complish nothing. Storing grain is
not practical at country stations and
why those foolish ware-house laws
should bob up and pass each session
of the legislature is a mystery. This
is one of Shorthill's bills and on his
recommendation it will get a large

possibility was mentioned by the presi

congress.
President Wilson was out automo-

the city members don't care. These
laws don't hurt them and they think
by voting for a farmer's measure
they in turn will get a vote back for
one of their pet bills. A combination
of this kind is hard to beat. The net
result will probably be two ware
house laws on our statute books and
neither one of any good to the farm
ers. The only place for a farmer to
store grain is in his granary. Cost
nothing for storage and safe.
