Those who have tried it and are con
sequently In a position to judge, say
that the soil of Sioux county produces a
great deal better when it is plowed deep.
As a rule new ground is not plowed
deep, but here better results are ob
tained by plowing deep right from the
start,
April 22d is arbor day and it should
be properly observed by the people and
schools of this county. The planting of
trees and shrubs has done much to make
Nebraska what it is and the establish
ment of arbor day by Hon. J. Sterling
Morton should make him a living factor
in the history of the state.
Thomas Kaster has leased a suction
of school land east of Andrews and also
secured a homestead and is said to con
template stocking it with sheep. The
fact that sheep do exceedingly well in
this locality is attracting the attention
of those wishing to engage in that indus
try and thus is added wealth and pros
perity brought to Sioux county. .
A. Leavens arrived from Utica,
Seward county, on Tuesday to look over
the this place with a view to local ;ng in
the practice of law. He is highly pleased
with the country, the town and its pros
pects and he goes home this evening
to make his arrangements to move here.
He will tell his friends of what he saw
here and advise them to come with him.
Sioux county is going to be settled at a
rapid rate.
The most of the people of Sioux
county have come to realize the fact
tliat all that is needed to make property
valuable here is plenty of people, and
the sooner the people get here the better.
The history of every state goes to show
that tracts of land which have since be
come the most valuable, were at one
time offered or sold for a mere trifle and
the laud in northwest Nebraska will
prove no exception to the rule. The bar
gains in real estate to be had in Sioux
county now will soon be taken and after
a few years the original owners will see
it greatly increased iu value,- simply by
reason of the settlement and develop
ment of the land in the same locality.
The village election passed off very
quietly Tuesday. Some time ago a peti
tion with the names of L. E. Belden, C.
E. Verity, H. A. Cunningham, Courad
Lindeman and W. E. Bridgman as can
didates lor village trustees, was circu
lated, signed and filed with the clerk.
Last week the four last-named gentle
men published a card withdrawing as
candidates and requesting that no votes
be cast for them, but it was not in good
faith but simply a dodge, and by hard
electioneering and each one votiug for
himself and each other they were elected
except Dr. Bridgman who was tied by
J. W. LeoU. By the vote of Tuesday
the village has endorsed a saloon without
a license aud a drug store without a
permit, and no one can blame the liquor
dealers for not complying with the law,
paying license or putting up a bond if
they can avoid it. A majority of the
votes cast said that the liquor element
shall control the town rather than the
town control the liquor business, and the
majority rules,
