We want all eewBlteiM Eiitcb hog sale last Tuesday, which was given by Messrs Phillip and Otto Schaeffer, when an excellent sale was held. The s;ile was conducted by Messrs. Young and Kruse and was attended ' y a good number of people, a large percent of whom were wanting some good stock. One spring boar told for $2"5. while his litter mnte sold for $85 and the combined litter cf seven, which were farrowed last February, brought $572, and a good return from the sow who farrowed theni. The matter of raising ood hoes is well demonstrated in the demand for something better by the hog rais ers. When the good hog wiih the same care will produce in a season from forty to seventy pounds more meat than the scrub, the matter of getting into a better stock of hogs is evident.

Trent, Murray, Neb. o5-4tw HAVE TROUBLE WITH SALT IN THE WATER Large Well at Burlington Pumping Station in Outskirts of Lincoln Causing Much Concern. The problem of the proper water for use in locomotives thot has been one of much concern to the Burling ton railroad for years, has again come to the fere with the discovery that the water in the large well at tb"C- pumping station at Lancaster on the outskirts of Lincoln, lias been found to contain increasing amounts of said that is rendering the water unfit for use in locomotives. The Lancaster plant of the Bur lington supplies the Lincoln yards, round house, machine shop, depot and passenger yards. A preat deal of water is pumped from that source and it is said to be one of the two most important plants ou the system, the one at Galeshurg alone being its equal in the amount cf water sup plied. During recent years it has been necessary to dig long tunnels - from the bottom of the well that the water supply might be increased. It was in extending one of these tun nels that a salt veing was unloosed and the water at once bedame briny. There is so much salt in the water that it is gaid to be impossible to get it out in the water treating plant, and unless this salt veing can be plugged up, the necessity cf moving the pumping station to 'some other supply source rcu?t be considered. Where the plant can be moved is a matter that will require much study before it is finally solved. The Burlington is at this time having an experimental well drilled just north of the passenger station in this city to determine just what kind of water can be secured and its adaptability for use as a supply point for locomotives along this portion of the line. The water here is con sidered exceptionally good and should the well prove as good as anticipated, a pumping plant will probably fol low.

' LOCATED A T MURRAY A i' INCREASES ARE FORECAST IN THE PRICE OF SHOES Quote Figures Four to Five Per Cent Higher Than Last Year Sales are also Gaining. New York, Oct. 13. More people brought shoes in this country in the last week than any time this year. This buying has been wise buying, according to experts in the industry altho in many cases slight ndvances over recent price levels were paid. Indications thruout the entire coun try point to still further increases before nxt spring. The shoe manufacturing industry in New England is generally in bet ter shape than at any time in two years, according to dispatches today from Boston. Conditions have read justed themselves so that manufac turers are in better shape to meet competition from western manufac turers. Factories are well supplied with orders and demand thruout the country seems to be swinging away slightly from the very low priced footwear to the medium and high priced goods. See Further Shoe Advance Salesmen now out with the new styles are quoting prices four to five per cent above those of last year. This docs not begin to parallel the advance in leather, sole and upper leathers having jumped fully 20 per cent in recent weeks. Makers believe that as soon as manufacturers work off their stocks of leather bought at the low prices, a considerable ad vance in the price of shoes is inevi table. In the middle west shoe centers, production is being maintained at 10 per cent of plant capacity with indications that output will be con tinued indefinitely. Prices have been increased at least 5 per cent due to higher cost of raw materials and ad ditional weekly or monthly revisions upward are expected according to word from St. Louis. Cincinnati man ufacturers have advanced prices 25 lo 50 cents a pair. Gross sales of shoes in the north west are fully ten per cent above those of a year ago, St. Paul report ed today. Slight advances are fore cast in spring styles because of stiff ening elather costs. Advances of from 50c to $1.50 a pair are predicted by Philadelphia manufacturers who are running at 100 per cent capacity on women's shoes and at 70 per cent on those for men. On that accounto makers are booking few orders for more than eight weeks in advance. Makers of glazed kid, heavily used in women's shoes, has advanced five cents a foot. Add Jlore Men to Eolls Buying in the Pittsburg district is an exception to the general rule. Sales there have been slow. The in dustry in Rochester is adding addi tional men to the payrolls and in creasing output. Prices have advanc ed in the last few days by 10 to 35 cents a pair in Kansas City, and ad vances are expected in the Pacific northwest. Shoes apparently reached their low price levels some weeks ago and fitfm now on whatever the standing of the American citizen the shoes he stands in will cost some more. World-IIerald Market Letter. EM CONTEMPLATED Neighboring City of Glen-wood to Improve its Eesort, Glenwood Lake, Next Summer. If the plans all materialize, Glen wood Lake next year will be greatly changed as a resort. Some of the work has already begun. The work now being done is the replacing of the three small inflow pipes running from the dam to the lake with a sin gle lS-inch pipe. This will permit a much larger flow of water than for merly. It will require 4 60 feet of tile for that purpose. There are two screens placed at the intake a large one to catch the larger rubbish, and a smaller screen mesh for the sec ond. At the outlet of the tile will be built a cement basis about 6x8 feet and near three' feet deep, which will catch a good part of soil sediment. The first fill of the upper end of the lake is being removed and dump ed in the space between the federal road and the lake embankment. Another planned improvement is the building of a dam across the lake a short distance north of the high dive tower. This will set apart a por tion of the lake for swimming pur poses only. It will assure fresh wa ter for bathing as an arrangement will be made that will make it pos sible to drain the entire swimming division. Fresh water will be sup pliM either by pumping or by a flood gate in the dam. The part of the lake north of the dam will be used ex clusively for fishing and boating. The pavilion at the lake will be spaced off for bath rooms and re freshment stands will be removed to the lake park. It will be utilized a3 a store room and possibly an oil fill ing station and articles for campers' accommodation. Glenwood Tribune. MONEY TO LOAN Private money to loan on farm land..
