Enjcyed a Good Year
Another year of success has been
realized by the Nehawka Farmers Co-
Onor.-ir ive Oil comnanv. despite the
agemcnt of R. C. Pollard, has been
successfully piloted through the fi-
succeeded in making a neat profit.
They purchased during the year goods
to the amount of $27,318.67, which
were sold for the sum of $37, 450. S3,
leaving a gross profit of $10,132.16.
This looks pretty good, but remember
it was not clear profit, for there has
to be deducted the selling expense, the
cost of repcirs, taxes, insurance, tele
phone, lights, postage and such other
items as go to make up overhead in
any business. The largest item was
that of labor, and the total of all
these items was $6,919.15, leaving the
net income ;f.rom the business $3,213.
j This was sufficient to allow a return
of 6 per cent on the shares of stock
in the concern and also 7 per cent on
the amount of goods purchased and
consumed by stockholders, which is in
the nature of a refund.
This is proof that the business was
most ably conducted by Mr. Pollard,
who i3 deserving of thanks for his
close attention to business and with
the same careful management it is
prcbably many of the institutions
that fail could be saved from such a
:fate. Let us all make an honest en
deavor this coming year to make our
own business enterprises successful
even though it does require a close
application to business and perhaps a
little less golf to do it. The time of
hap-hazard success is past and he who
would succeed in these times must be
willing to give his earnest attention
to that which he promotes.

improvements and furnished employ
ment for thousands of laborers was
achieved in Nebraska last year.
State Engineer Cochran Saturday
released figures on the road pro

highway department for 1932.
When work started last year is

state will have 158 more miles of
paving, 210 more miles of bitumin
ous mat surfacing and 5S4 more miles
of graveled roads than at the begin
ning of 1932.
Cochran said that during 1932,
sixty-three miles of paving, 192 miles
of bituminous mat surfacing, 159
miles of gravel surfacing, 270 miles
of second course gravel surfacing in
stage construction and 423 miles of
grading were completed while a host
of other projects were placed under
contract and started under the emerg
ency federal aid made available late
in the summer.
The mileage of projects on which
some work has been done and which
will be completed when weather per
mit?,

inciudes ninety-five miles ot
. twenty-two of bituminous
mat surfacing,
facing, 159 of
121 of gravel sur

1 bridges, three overpasses and two
underpasses.
Complete 7,809 Miles.
When this work is finished, the
state highway system will have 7,809
miles completed as follows: Paved

road:, 20'2 miles; gravel roads, 5,
703 miles; earth roads without sur

state. Between Wood Lake and Val

road was constructed, with grading,
'lr linage structures and oil sand sur
facing all done and a bridge built
icro: tho Niobrara river.
The
bridge was employment to twenty
ucven men on the average for twenty-four
weeks.
A project between Cambridge and
tndianola where bituminous mat
surfacing was placed on 13.6 miles,
furnished an average employment of
eighty-one men for three weeks and
thirteen men for five more weeks.
Employ Many Men.
Sixty men were employed for four
weeks and forty-five for two more
weeks in construction of bitumin
ous mat surfacing on a fourteen mile

Silver Creek to Columbus, an average
of sixty-four men was used.
The numbers employed as listed
include only actual workers cn the
job and not the engineering stuff nor
the employment furnished in sup
