From Friday' Dally.
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.

Buying Grain and Stock!
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. Thirty-six
years' experience on "market conditions" and "grading
up" grain. Free to our customers.

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. Cos m ar.d talk it over.

past year Mrs. Loberg has been in
failing health and has traveled about
in search of relief and has always
had the best of care but her suffer
ings were great and death came as
a blessed relief and was welcomed by
her. She 'was a Christian wbman
full of kindly deeds, and was a lov
