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.

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. WINTEE APPLES FOE SALE

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.

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.
