This morning the "Castilian". the tug boat belonging to the Woods Brothers of Lincoln and which has been tied up here for several weeks while undergoing repairs, was steam ed and departed up the river for Decatur, where it will be used in riv er improvement work this summer. The stay of the boat here has been rather long as it was necessary to have a piece prepared for tne uoiler plates and later a wait was had for the visit of the government inspec tor for the boiler and hull as it was necessary to have these inspected be fore the boat could leave this point. The stay of the crew here has been very pleasant and has given the res idents of this city an opportunity to meet Captain Roy Miller, who has charge "of the boat and who is a most clever and genial gentleman. Captain Miller was engaged in work in France during the war in the en gineering forces of the United States and had charge of a line of freight transports between Lallarve and Paris, on the Seine river. Captain Miller and his crew leave here with a ery pleasant spot in their hearts for Plattsmouth and its hospitable people.

Farming only pays when the man who manages the farm receives at least one half of the net income from the farm. Grain and stock should be bought by individual buyers who take an interest in keeping posted or the market. Co-operative associations will never be a success until they sell at least one-half their stock to their managers. Bring your Grain and Stock to us.

McVey came up this morn ng from Murray to spend a .week here with friends and from here goes to Windsor, Illinois, where he will rpend the summer months. Good Auto Roads -TO-VIA T. tl. POLLOCK AUTO BRIDGE There has been more or less dis cussion of the holding of a celebra tion of the Fourth of July in this city, and the question has. been de cided by the announcement of a very unique ami pleasant celebration that will be given by tin Presbyter ian Sunday school and which will be of the old fashiontd safe and sane nature. The main feature of the celebra tion will be a big basket dinner in which the members of the church, their families and the fritnds who may desire to join will unite and the event sounds mighty good 'or a fine celebration that will give everyone a splendid outing and make it an event to be pleasantly remembered by all those taking part. The celebration is to be held at King Hill, one of the most beauti ful spots that can be found in the Missouri river valley and which is the highest point along the river from St. Louis to Sioux City and from whose ruggid summit the great valley is visible for miles.. No more ideal spot could be found had the entire territory been thoroughly hunted over and the committee in charge has shown good taste in the selecting of this place for the pleas ant gathering. Mark White, the owner of the property has kindly placed the hill and the surrounding farm at the disposal of the members of the party and will see that they have the fullest opportunity of en joying the day. There is an abund ance of cool shade, fine grassy spots and' the mighty rugged bluffs to give the party the fullest appreciation of this wonderful scenic spot of Ne braska. It is desired to have the party or ganized as a caravan, with decorated automobiles and which ' will leave this city at 3 o'clock sharp for the scene of the picnic. The committee that will handle the transportation is composed of C. A. Rawls. J. F. (bor der. H. E. Becker. A. C Cole, F. W. Nolting and John F. Whrbein. and those who expect to attend and have their cars in use are requested to get in touch with this committee. It is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a fine community outing and one that should be embracde by all those who have automobiles or whose friends can accommodate them in getting to the picnic grounds where they can go with their bas kets and enjoy a fine picnic. THE UNIVERSAL CAR During all the years the Fcrd Model T One Ton Truck has been cn the mar ket, we have never had one complaint of rear axle trouble. We have had no complaints of motor trouble. As the motor and the rear axle are the vital funda mentals in a motor track, we have the right to conclude that the Ford One Ton Truck has not only met the demands of business, but has done so in a satisfactory csid economic way. There is no other evidence so convincing a-3 that which comes from long practical experience. Ford One Ton Trucks are serving along nil industrial and commercial lines. You will find them everywhere. If these statements were not facts," the demand for the Ford One Ton Truck would not be as large as it is, because people are not buying trucks which do not give service. Coupled with the dependability of the Ford One Ton Truck in all classes of usage, comes the economy in operation and maintenance. On the farm, in factory delivery, for the merchant, manufacturer, and contractor, in these days of modern business methods, this worm-driven One Ten Ford Truck has become an actuci necessity.
