CThe farmers along the lhirl’.ngton
railroad in Nebraska have been given
permission to cultivate the right-of-way
along the Burlington track and seeding
the same to alfalfa. The right-of-way
along the Burlington track gives each
farmer suftlcient ground to bring him
in anincome in the neighborhood of
*200 each year from alfalfa and with
out taxes to pay or other expenses.
With land worth from *50 to *75, this
is quite an item to farmers in this part
of Nebraska and should be appreciated
by the average farmer, who has the
railroad right-of-way through his farm.
With the right of-way seeded to alfalfa
it will put up a very beautiful appear
ance and reduces the dangers of lire to
the farmer, for at the time when
stubble fields and grass burn in the fall
the alfalfa is green.—Aurora Sun
George Freeborn was released from
the county jail last Friday after serv
ing his time of fifteen days. Along
with George's fifteen day sentence as
we remember it, there was a clause that
requested him to leave town as soon as
he had served his time, but when he
gained the open air he forgot all about
this request and insisted upon remain
ing in town. To drink liquor and fight
appears to be the height of George's
ambition and after practicing this art
for a couple of days with no symptoms
of reformation in sight the marshal
locked him up again Sat unlay night.
Sundsy morning he was willing to
make a quick get away and in order to
saw the city expense of keeping him
for another term he was allowed to
depart. A vag ordinance might not he
a bad thing tor such fellows. A two
weeks or ten days jail sentence with
plenty to eat and drink has no terrors
to men of this class, but if they could
be lariated to a rock pile or made to
serve their time working on the streets
they would not tie quite as willing to go
to jail.—Ord Quiz.

Odd Follow Memorial Services.
The Independent Order of Odd
Fellows of tins city, held memorial
-services last Sunday, at the Baptist
church, the sermon being preached by
liev. Wold. Mr. Wold is an enthusiastic
member of the order and therefore was
well qualified to officiate. The Iteb -k
ahs and Odd Fellows met at their hall
at 10 a m. and mtrched in procession
to the llaptist church, there being
nearly 100 members in the line The
Reverend Brother selected his text
from the 7th chapter of Matthew and
10th verse. *‘And by their fruits ye
shall know them ” He dwelt upon the
tenets of the order and mirrored its
laws, told the world of the magnificense
of true Odd Fellowship and informed
his hearers that to become a genuine
Odd Fellow was to make good men
better as well as all men, but imposed
no worship of the wicked if they did
not happen to be entitled to wear the
three links. His sermon was logical,
practical and a model of eloquence,
which conipired favorably with the
subject he was handling and the mem
bers of both branches of the order here
felt that they had enjoyed a blessing in
listening to it. beyond all appreciation.
The Frmklin, Mo., News recently

I can make by putting ads on the pro
grams; the hotel register lake, and
other similar schemes. It is hard to
I understand, but it is a fact, that the
' average merchant will pay more for a
little card on a poster to be hung in a
hotel room than he will for a good sd
vartisement in the local paper. He
i forgets that the people who occupy
rooms in a hotel are i>eople who seldom

! transients who have little or no patron
age for the local merchant, and who
Scare nothing for the local prosperity.
There are dozens of other fakes.. It is
our opinion, of course, that it will pay
lour businessmen to put their advert is

people who live in the community. The
hewspaper is the best advertising
medium.
The Lincoln News is busily trying to

The Wondeland Beyond Cody.
A new wonderland is now open to
the hunter, fisherman and summer
tourist— a magnificent scenic region
between Cody, Wyo., and the Yellow
stone Park. The Burlington has made
practically half rates for summer trips
from all points on its system to Cody
and return, the gateway to this country.
From Cody west, the new road fol
lows the north fork of the Shoshone
River to Marquette, the location of the
great Government dam now under way
for the storing of the waters of the
Shoslone for irrigating 200,000acres of
Big Horn Basin lands. West of Mar
quette two log cabin Inns have been
built by Col. Cody for the'accomodation
of tourists The development of this
country has been the work and prule of
Colonel Bill Cody, whose permanent
home is now at the Irma Hotel, Cody,
Wyoming. Probably the easiest and
most natural way to arrange for a tour
through this new region is to go direct
to Cody, where all arrangements can
quickly be made for the coach journey
oyer the route, sojourning at the differ
log cabin Inns, or for camp outfits,
horses, teams, guides and everything of
tiiis kind.
The Burlington has a special descrip
tive folder of this locality on the press,
copies of which can shortly lie obtained
