Bracken, of the Burlington, who was in Lincoln Monday morning, in an interview with newspaper men of the capital city, gave out the statement that the traffic Increase on the railroad is not so great at this time as might be expected. The wheat market has diminished the usual volume of grain shipments. The Increase in earnings is not keeping pace with the increase in operating expenses. Mr. Bracken spent two weeks in northwest Nebraska and Wyoming because of flood troubles recently and he brings a glowing report of grain and crop conditions in the northwest. He says good corn and alfalfa can be seen along the railroad from Lincoln to the Montana line. Corn, which Is usually very short in the northwest, is the tallest ever known this, sea son. Airalia Is unusually good and the range has produced more grass than in any recent year. Mr. Bracken deplored the fact that the farmers are compelled by the prices to hold their wheat. "If that is the only way to control the market," he said, "that is the proper method of procedure. It may be necessary next year to raise less wheat. It would certainly., be for tunate if readjustment of agricultur al conditions could be brought about more rapidly. We all suffer because of it. Right now the railroad is not getting the traffic it should." CIRCUS DAY IN PLATTS MOUTH IS NEAR AT HAND After several years absence, the people of this locality will haxe with them a real circus, clowns, wild ani mals and everything that goes to make the lure of this popular line of entertainment. The advance man of the World Bros, big four ring circus was here today making arrangements for the appearance of the circus and secur ing a location in which to put on the show. While no definite location is an nounced it is thought that it will be given on the land south of the Bur lington shops as that Is the only tract of land large enough to ac commodate a show of the size claim ed for the World Bros, shows. They exhibited at Nebraska City a week ago and drew favorable comment from both Nebraska City papers as being first class in every way. A Journal employe also saw the show in the northern part of the state a couple of months ago and says they have one of the best aggregations of its size on the road. News that a circus is to visit the city spread rapidly and has proved of greatest Interest, especially to the younger generation. PURCHASES NEW HOME From Wednesday's Dally.

INDICATIONS POINT TO GOOD CORN CROP Wheat Yields Disappointing and Spring Grain Slightly Below Expectations, Says Eeport From Tuesday's Dally. Corn prospects are good, wheat yields disappointing and spring grain Jslierhtlv below expectation in places, according to a report issued by the Division of Crop and Live Stock Es timates. Black stem rust is quite general throughout -western and northern Nebraska With a very few exceptions, the corn prospects are good throughout tne state. Most or tne crop nas xas seled out and with sufficient rain during the next three weeks the crop will be large. While some of the fields are quite weedy and a certain percentage of the crop quite lately, the average condition is satisfactory. The winter wheat crop which has While black stem rust has done serious damage throughout the west ern half and northern Nebraska, thi3 is not the only factor. There is a trace of black stem rust in the southeastern quarter, but still the yields are low due to shrunken grain and partly filled heads. One of the causes advanced was the sudden change from cool, wet weather to dry weather and high temperatures. Due to the long period of wet weath er was naturally shallow rooted. The rains packed the ground and after ceasing dried out rapidly and there was not sufficient moisture to meet the demands of the heavy straw and foliage and naturally the wheat did not fill properly. The spring grain crops were re duced somewhat also. Spring wheat, in western Nebraska which was so promising was severely Injured by black stem rust. Oats are good In southern Nebraska but the crop Is not normal In northeastern Nebras ka. OLD TIME RESIDENT HEBE From Tuesday's Dally. This morning, John W.

The party made a short stop at Plattsmouh where they were transferred by booat across the river and just north of this city on the bottom lands the excursion was stop ped for a rest and the Illinois boys played a baseball game with the Plattsmouth team and in this Mr. Reasoner participated.

Driving the wagon was an old veter an whose grizled beard lay on his bosom and with his wagon drawn by a team of not too verly fleshy horses it was certainly a picture of the past as the team and wagon moved up the street dodging the fleet of passing au tos.
