Thi9 is a pretty darn'd good world
after all, and we don't have to be a
fool about it either. It's just as silly
to eternally wear rosy glasses as
black ones there's a happy medium
a broad road of sanity, clear think
ing and constructive optimism. i
The only thing I hate about having
to take a boat ride on the river Styx,
is that I can't live to see what human
minds, human hands, human eyes,
and human efforts will bring out as
the centuries roll past. To see the
old earth swing again to the glacial
period, and then back and ever rolling
thru eternity in Its unchanging
course, and governed by unchanging
laws that lie beyond human sight
and comprehension. ,

on the South Omaha Market a car load
of 33 good quality light white-face
spayed heifers total weight 20,870
pounds, an average of 626 pounds per
heifer paying $6,75 for same.
These heifers were kept on full
feed 54 days and on December 6th
were shipped to Chicago Market and
weighed there 24,130 pounds an aver
age of 731 pounds per head and sold
for $10.50.
j Ground snapped corn and some al
falfa hay was fed and allowing one
' peck of ground corn per day per
i heifer, which is more than was fed,
1 445 bushel of corn was charged to

left a net profit on the 33 heifers
after paying all expenses including
freight, feed and all handling charges
of $716 48.
There were 75 hogs In the feed lot
with the heifers so no deduction or
charge was made for the alfalfa. Very
little alfalfa Is used where ground

These heifers were fed on the Pol
lock farm two miles east of Mur

Epeaks well for Mr. Martin's ability as

Thru this Mind, we can life our
city up and find its place in the

just thoughtlessly doing this and that

never thru thoughtlessness permit
ting an act, or a word of our to pass
that would in any measure harm our
development and progress. The man
ner of our thoughts is reflected in
the prosperity and progress of our
city; our schools; our citizenship.
