A Stock Letter.
With this wee ks fstie the Pkesw-Jotk-HAL
prints a stock letter from Nye Buc
hanan t o. which will be a regular feature
every week- Look for it. It will lie a
summary of the weeks market at South
Omaha for the previous week.
Dr..Seniour writes us that visitors to
the Buffalo Exposition should not fail to
see the numerous lense grinding plants
located on the grounds. It is vastly in
teresting as well us' instructive as one
then gains some idea of the skill find care
required in the grinding of lenses.
What mght have been a very dis

waterwhich finally quenched the flames
before any great amount of damage
was done.
As Dr. Seinour has a number of patien

convenient for them to come to Lincoln
to see him, hejrequests them to make it
a point to call upon him an.'! Dr. Willia

Still another letter from Dr. Semour
in which he adviseVus of his arrival in

He will not return lo Lincoln for some

work and studv in the interest of his
profession, which of course will take
severul weeks. However he wishes to

Some of the ranchmen of this vicinity
were influenced by asmolh talking sales
man recently to order goods of a retail
wrocery house in the East. They thought
they were getting bargains but when the
goods came they learned that they were
getting beaten. It is not prahable that
this particular grocery man will infest
these parts again but others may. The
moral is very plain. Patronize Harrison
merchants and know just what you are
buying. Honest goods at honest prices
is their motto.
Relief at

While at Chadron a few weeks since,
the pkimb-JOCKKaL man met Mrs. Madi-n
who tnlil him a vorvintoiestiog story, as
she expressed it, it sounded almost like
Gulliver' Travels. About a year ago
the broke her arm and a physician of
Chadron was called. He attended the
case for some time and llnully, her arm
getting no better, another one wascnlld.
The bones, did not stem to be correctly
knit together, so after siillering for a
time she went to the hospital at Omaha.
Thy told her that she would haye to
have an anisthelic and the bone liored

Thoroughly disheartened with doctors
and doctering, she came home to Chad

The find was at a depth of 170 feel.

trading is not particularly active but de

Cows and mixed stock in liberal supply.
The demand is good but the buyers take
advantage of the liberal receipts and are
very bearish ih their talk and trading as
a rule is about a dime lower than last
week. Quality only fair. Western
range beeves in good supply but packer-

buyers are active competitors for the

U. S. Forestars
A party employed by the bureau of
Forestry of thu U. S. government have
been encamped in Monroe canyon the
last, week. The j have worked corth
from Kearney this season as a pary and
two of them worked from the mouth of
the Platte river. The object of their
work is to make a complete study of the
tree (frowth of this section of Nebraska
with aview to making recommendations
to the people who live here in regard to
planting trees. The party are all college
graduates and are well qualified to do
the work. The following are the names
of those in the party: R. S. Kellogg,
Kansas Agricultural college; E.P.Bailey,
Dartmouth; H. P. Baker, Wisconsin Ag
ricultural college; J. II. Hatton, South
Dakota Agricultural college; L. C. Mil
ler, Oklahoma Agricultural college; F.
O. Miller, Iowa Agricultural college;
J. H. Scott, cook and teamster. Kansas
Agricultural college. In addition to
those named, B. F. Boostrom of the State
University of Nebraska, is studying the
botany of this section of Nebraska with
the party. He returned Monday evening
to Lincoln where he is employed as in
structor in botany in the Lincoln high
school.
Their method of work is interesting.
When they first establish a camp they
proceed to scour the country and find
hll the different species of trees that
they can and make a list of them. They
notice the condition of the trees and their
locality and, in short, everything that
they can learn about the tree growth of
he section where they are located.
When this has been gone over thoroughly
they proceed with what thee term stem
analysis. This consists of careful meaa-
uremontfs of the trees which are cu
down, With outside and inside the hark, 1
counting the rings at various heights. I
etc. In this way they are nbie to deter- J
minejust how n;uch a tree has grown
every season and by comparison to l
able to say what trees grow ihe fastest
and are Ihe thriftiest. They have found
more species of trees in Monroe canyon
than any other location in western Ne
braska. . ,-
Now that the west is waking up to the
realization of the fact that irrigation is
the thing which we must demand from
the general Government the subject of
fortstry is of timely interest because it
begins to look as if it would be practic
able for trees to be grown in the west.
An experiment which has already!
proved a success is the planting of pine
I sees in the Sand Hills where nothing
else would gaow. Thlsexperiment will
be an argument used to force the Govj
ernment. to establish great reserves for
the purpose of planting and fostering im
mense groves ot trees on the government
land which is unfit for anything' else.
This is another project for tho benefit
of the west and mankind in general
which seems likely to be pushed to a
successful termination in the nearfuture.
All these things go to show why the
people of Nebraska should take an active
interest in the work now being done by
'he Bureau of Forestry.
