New Traffic
Bridge Starts
at Louisville
Structure Over Platte Paver Erected
by Private Capital to Be
Paid for in Tolls.
From Friter'a Dan- - (
The work is starting on the new
bridge over the Platte river at Louis
ville, the structure being constructed
by the Louisville Bridge company,
comprising Louisville and Platts-
mouth business and professional men.
The bridge In Its construction 1b
to be strictly modern and will be
erected by the constractors, the Oma
ha Steel Co.. who had charge of the
steel work of the Plattsmouth bridge
over the Missouri river.
The plan of construction will be
similar to that of the Platte river
bridge at this city, being all steel and
concrete and with a twenty foot road
way that will permit passing for two
cars or trucks at any time, and re
lieving one of the most disagreeable
features of the old type of bridge
with the out of date turnouts.
The bridge is to have sixty foot
spans with piling of ten inch steel
and the flooring to be of concrete for
the roadway of twenty feet.
While the new structure Is belrg
erected many are using the old
wooden bridge a short distance from
the new structure, altho this bridge
has not been considered In proper
shape and parties using it do bo at
their own risk. The road that leads
to the present bridge was ordered
changed some time ago, a part of the
highway being abandoned and a new
road projected that will lead to the
new bridge.
Until the new bridge Is completed
the residents of our neighboring
town are however trying to get along
with the old structure which is safe
for the lighter type of motor travel
but on which heavy trucks are re
garded as dangerous.
DEPARTS FOE CALIFORNIA
This morning Mr. and Mrs. T. E.
Todd and son, Albert, departed for
California, going to Long Beach
where they will spend the winter
for the benefit of the health of the
son and where he will attend school.
En route to the west the Todd fam
ily will first go to Wilber to visit with
Henry and August Hoffman, bro
thers of Mrs. Todd and then to Oak-
hill. Kansas, to visit with the father
of Mrs. Todd. They go from Kansas
to Fort Morgan, Colorado, for a
short stay and then on to the we3t.
expecting to reach Long Beach by
September 1st and prepare for the
school year. They are planning on
returning to Nebraska in the early
summer of 1931 to look after their
land interests here.
ENTERS PLEA OF GUILTY
From TrlOmr' T3Jt
This morning in the district court
before Judge James T. Begley Ople
Horton. who was charged with pos
session and transportation of liquor
by County Attorney W. G. Kieck,
was arraigned.
The defendant at first made a plea
of not guilty to the charge but later
decided that he would change the
plea to that of guilty and accord
ingly was allowed to change the
plea.
The court gave Mr. Horton a fine
of $100 and a sentence of ninety
days in the county jail.
Miss Henrietta Martens, who was
, called here by the death of her Bis
ter, Mrs. Mary Cline, some weens
ago, departed yesterday for San
Francisco to resume her work as
trained nurse in one of the hospitals
at that place.
Preparing for
Opening of the
River Barges
Lands Being Leased on the East Side
of Missouri River Near Here for
Docks and Landings,
The use of the river Darge trans
portation for handling large and
bulky shipments of freight is to be a
reality in the future as the Missouri
river is opened up for the handling
of all lines of shipments such as rock
and building material.
Leases have been filed at Glen wood
by the Central Bridge & Construc
tion Co., and Carl A. Munska of Oma
ha, on land along the east Bide of
the Missouri river, which land is
leased for the use of docks, landings
and wharfage for the handling of
road building and road improving
material of al kinds, the eases state.
The heavy rock formations on the
Nebraska bluffs and the hills of Iowa
offer a wealth of material for all
kinds of road building material and
the opening of the Missouri river
navigation will mean that there will
be a ready means offered of getting
this material to the markets of the
world.
The river transportation Is espec
ially important as regards the hand
ling of the rock on the Nebraska Bide
of the stream where the formation of
the land has prevnted transportation
being Becured in that locality and
otherwise making the process of get
ting the material to Bhipping points
very expensive.
With the river serving the purpose
of transportation the rock can be
loaded at the spot where it is quar
ried or stripped off and at a very low
cost of producing and of the easiest
access to the river barge lines.
This is one of the developments
that can be expected in the next few
years and one that is going to mean
a great deal to the residents along
the Missouri river bluffs.

Steamer Arrives
Here to Start in
as a Sand Boat
"Arthur S" Here and ready to start
Work of Securing Sand and
Gravel from River.
The Arthur S, owned by the Ne
braska & Iowa Sand company of
Omaha arrived here Thursday even
ing from Clinton, la., on its way to
the mouth of the Platte river where
it will be used as a sandboat. The
trip from Clinton to Plattsmouth is
1,000 miles and was begun July 1.
Four large Band barges with a
capacity of three cars each wer at
tached to the steamer.
The Arthur S is -5x22 feet and
carries a crew of eight men and of
ficers ' besides the "cook. The. upper
deck is used for quarters for the men
to accommodate 12 persons, a good
sized dining room, kitchen and plenty

The boat draws 26 inches of water
and is propelled by steam. The BkJp-J
per is Capt. Frank Snyder, who was
accomamea uy cautiu xierget , 11
censed pilot.
The veteran pilot reported a hard
trip along the Missouri but stated the
water north of St. Joseph was much
better than to a point east of. Kan-!
sas City. There were several delays
because of the low stage of the wa-
ter, the pilot said, making it difficult
to avoid sandbars and snags. At
Buckhorn Point, about 130 miles be-
low Kansas City the boat was held
up because of low water and at Itan. , .
Point a snag did considerable dam
age to the rudder, necessitating a de
lay of several days as Gasconade for
repairs.
After leaving St. Joseph no trouble
was experienced until the boat reach
ed a point near Peru Tuesday where j
the greater part of the day was spent
in getting around a sand bar. This
delay caused the tiemg up over night
near Barney. .
Captain Snyder said that the boat
would be used at the mouth of the.
Platte river where sand and gravel '
were to be taken for the trade up and
down the Missouri river.

Finds Corn Ap
pears Better
Than It Is
Ag College Men Tour Eastern Coun-
ties to Check Crop Running
40 to 50 Per Cent.
Eastern Nebraska corn looks bet
ter than it really is, representatives
of the agricultural college concluded
after a trip thru Lancaster, Cass,
Sarpy, Douglas, and Saunders coun-
ties Friday.
According to those on the trip
fields that look dark green and good
for 50 to 60 bushels per acre from
the road proved extremely disappoint-
ing upon closer inspection. Only two.
three, and sometimes fjr ears out
of ten along a row nave any ker
nels set at all, the group found. Since
practically all of the tassels were
burned by the dry hot weather no
more pollen will be available to fer
tilize the later ears and make corn,
it was pointed out.
H. G. Gould, district leader of
county agents; J. H. Stewart and
D. L. Gross, extension crops and soils
men, and Elton Lux, extension editor,
were in the party. They stopped at
several crossroads and where they
could scatter out into four fields at
a time. Without exception they
brought back the same report. No
stops were made near fields that were
noticeably damaged. The men were
interested in the fields that appeared
in good shape now after the recent
rains.
Farmers near Papillion estimated
their corn crop would make 50 per
cent of a crop. The agriculturists
said the best field seen on the trip
was on the Amos Gramlich farm
southeast of Papillion where the
party stopped to check up on an ex
tensive corn variety test. This field
on lowland and planted May 5, will
probably make 50 to 60 bushels per
acre.
Douglas county farmers who have
not been out in their fields thought
the recent crop estimates were too
pessimistic, but the ag college men
said they decided upon inspection of
corn along the Center street road to
ward Waboo that the estimates are
too optimistic

the situation in his county. "I esti

-Hyde, and they all think I've got the
blues."
"Farmers In the western half of
the county are finding out as fast as
they go into their fields that the pros
pects are anything but bright. East
ern Cass county is in fair shape."
The college men said corn around

AN APPRECIATION
I wish to take this opportunity to
thank the voters of Cass county for
the splendid vote given me on Tues
day at the primary election. Their
support is very much appreciated '

LAST CONCERT OF SEASON
The Elks band of this city will '
present the last concert of the sea-j
son on next Wednesday evening, j
20th, at the court house lawn. This !
concert will be in the nature of a !
request program and Director Holly I
will be pleased to receive any re- j
quest for numbers from the music '
lovers of the community so that the
concert can be one in which all can
have their favorite selection given.
The band expects later to give a
complimentary concert on a Sunday
afternoon at the Nebraska Masonic
Home and the date of which will be
given later.
The present season has been one
that has attracted a larg number
to the concerts and afforded come
very fine musical treats to the resi
dents of this community. The con
certs have been sponsored by the i
city with the Chamber of Commerce

the musical offerings.
SEEK TO DISCONTINUE TRAINS
Yesterday a group of Missouri
Pacific officials were in the city to the bridal chorus from Lohengrin and
interview local business men as to 'Mendelssohn's wedding march follow
the viewpoint of the railroad tak- J ine the ceremony. As the vows were
ing off the services of two of thet,eing spoken, "To a Wild Rose" was
trains that now pass through this
city from Omaha to Kansas City."
The trains that are suggested as be
ing taken off the schedule are No.
107 northbound, reaching this city
at 6:37 p. m. and No. 108, south
bound, arriving here at 2:05 p. m.
The railroad officials claim that the
traffic is not sufficient to warrant the
operation of these trains and that the
service now is supplemented by the
bus service to 'Omaha from this city
and which it is thought would more
than care for the traffic.
