It may not be generally known

lies before us. While we can not
read the matter readily, our German

properly, tet knowing Kro. Wall as
we d and knowing him to be a

pr ~ :ent in his mother tongue, as

a capable editor and writer for tlie
publicstion. Our German friends
are inviued to call at the office and
examine the interesting periodical.
Tlie Fats and Leans had anotlier

no m and the scarecrows won out bv
a score of 13 to 4 over their beefv
adversaries. Tlie game was not al
together a contest between light and
heavyweights, as it was impossible
for the Fats to muster into tlie game
m re than three big ones, filling out
with cadaverous bipeds. However,
it was quite interesting to the
Leant-- and as equally discomfiting
to the Fat contingent. What we
want to see is a real game in which
the Fats will a'.i tip the beam at the
weigt - of Arthur. Mulick and Long,
while the shadows will be equal in
ieng:: and thinness to Starr, Stout
and Hempstead, and all tlie players
know as little about the rules of the
game the editors of tlie Times
and Northwestern, and about as
proficient at fanning tlie molecules

The Texas Exhibit
Among the most interesting ex
hibits at the state fair this rear is
that of the Valley Fruit Farm and
Garden Co. of this city. During the
past year this company has sold
twenty thousand acres of land ad
joining Francetas, Tex., a new town
thev are establishing, to Nebraska
people, and tliey brought the exhibit
to the fair to show their customers
the products of the land, as a large
number of purchasers expect soon to
make their permanent homes there.
This section of Texas grows, as
shown in the exhibit, oranges, tigs,
pears, apples, peaches, cranberries,
tobacco, cotton. Japanese persim
mons. peanuts, rice, and In fact most
everything that is produced from the
soil.
Some of the m jst interesting things
to Nebraskans are a four-year-old
orange tiee full of halt grown
oranges, a kumquat tree tilled with
fruit, a tig tree ready for the harvest
and cotton as it grows in the field
In addition to the novelties named,
the exhibit contains such staples as
sugar cane, kaftir corn, broom corn,
potatoes, sweet potatoes, melons and
all kinds of garden produce, samples
that attest the productive quality
of tiie gulf coast lands.
There are also many views of
scenes presented which bespeak the
character of the land and its fine
home-making capacities, and altho'
tliat is not generally looked upon by
Nebraskans as a corn.grow ing coun
try. this exhibit contains specimens
of as tine corn as can be grown any
where. taken from the lands of this
company. This entire exhibit was
collected upon two days' notice, but
it is of a character to attract much
attention and admiration.
It is almost immposible to believe
that this exhibit can display field
corn of superior quality, raised on
the ]gulf coast, and yielding ninety
bushels to the acre, but that is just
what the attendants at the booth
are prepared to show. Nebraskans
who are interested in agricultural
pursuits will find much to interest
them in this exhibit.— Lincoln State
Journal.
Only A Dollar Now
The Lincoln Ikailv Journal has cut'
its price to a dollar from now until j
January l. lull. without tlie Sunday.'
Tl>e big Sunday paper will Ik* added
for only a quarter extra, theiefore ;
most people will no doubt take the i
*1.35 worth. This makes an exceed
ingly low price during a specially in
teresting time, as nearly Jevery fami
ly will want a Lincoln paper during i
the next few montlis. The State j
Journal's reputation as a free, in
dependent. clean newspaper willj
prove of special advantage during;
the warm campaign now begun. The
paper stops when the time is up:
without any holice from you wliat-i
ever, so U»< you see it is ho plan to
get you started and then force the
paper on you.
Bixby. the poet-philosopher of The
Journal, is worth the price of admis
sion himself. Statd telegraph is aj
strong feature and sporting cranks
are well satisfied The thing above i
all others is tite fact that wlien you ;
see anything political in The loufnal
that its for the benefit of tbe people
at large and not for tbe selfish
political interest of the ow ners. No
booze ads. no nasty medical ads no
fraudulent investment schemes. Fact
is. its the kind of a paper you want '
in your family. Why not try it a;
dollar s worth at this cut priced
