Obituary Norman B. Thompson was born July :2nd. 1*01,in Tlcondeuiga. Essex Go.. New York. On Septemliei' 4th. l*Gi. I»e wa* married to Cynthia Ing ella. To this union were born seven sons and one daughter, one son dying in infancy. The deceased lived to •ec fifteen grand.hildren and five great-grand children, all of whom were living at the time of his death. After leaving Wisconsin, he spent two vcais with his family in Missouri before coming to this state, where for tiiirtv years he lias made his itome in >lterman County the greater part of tite time on his farm near Austin In July the present year he went to Omalia to visit his sons while there was overcome by the disease thaton September 11. 1911 caused his death. He was one of the pioneer settlers of this county, and was a member of the A ustin Presbyterian Church. The funeral service was betn Wednesday. Sept. 13th at Austin eooducted by the Rev. J. C. Tour teJlot was made in the Austin ceme u«y BOOSIERS ARE HERE Ord Commercial Club and Band Pay City a Short but Pleasant Visit Amid the ringing of cow bells, j blow ing of tisli horns and almost ail other immaginable noise about thirty auto loads of the Ord Commercial Club rolled into town Tuesday morn ing. Accompanied bv the Ord band they were out on a boosting trip for the Loup Val'ey Fair and Races, that start at Ord Sept. 26. and they did not care who knew it either. The machines came to a stop in two lines on either side of Main street and the entire party proceeded to get busy. The Ord Rand formed in a circle arid demonstrated that they could get something besides strange groans and grunts from their instruments by playing a most excellent concert of both classical and popular music while the advertising committee -» attered through the business dis trict distributing their printed matter and some very attractive novelities. The machines of the party w ere all decorated with flags and banners making a most pleasing effect and the hustling noisy good natured occupants made us wish that their visit could have been longer Come again. NOBBY MAIL WAGON | Jimmie Conger, who delivers Uncle j Sam's mail along along Route 2. is riding in w hat to the naked eye looks .ike the finest mail wagon so far discovered, it is built of a light frame of wood and is covered with canvas neatl v painted and lettered. In shape it i> like an old fashioned flat iron with the pointed end to the front so that it iiteraly “splits the wind.'’ The windows are of transparent celu loid. the interior is fitted with an arm chair and foot warmer while in tne top there is a trap door, that en ables the driver to stand erreet when he desires, also provides plenty of ventelation. For lightness neatness and comfort it has anything we have ever seen beat hands down. AND SO WE BACK UP That the Northwestern is widely i read i- well illustrate by the following j Last week we mentioned the report' that Newton Vance and wife were visiting in St Paul and Monday morn ing brigl.t and early Mrs. Ida Lam bert. Mrs. Vance's mother, called at this office to know the why of which and to demand that we . raw fish at once for she had been worried to death, or near it, answer ing as to why Vance was passing-up the many friends here etc. Here are the faqts Mrs Vance was in St Paul and Vance is over in Iowa at I toe old stand telling the natives about I the merits of I tens famous products i was not even in the glorious state of Nebraska at tiie time. HUGH YER VALIN INJURED A letter from Ward Ver Valin. M itched S. 1*.. inclosing a clipping from tiieir local paper which was an account of the running down of their son. Hugh, by an automobile recently. Tiie lad was with a boy companion riding a bicycle when struck and tiie impact rendered him unconcious. We are happy to be able instate that his iujuries did not prove serious. The Mitchell paper devoted considerable space to tiie driver of tiie machine who did not even stop or take tiie trouble to turn around in ids seat but disapeared before his identity could be learned. PIONEER PASSES ON Word was received Monday of the; death of Norman B. Thompson, a pioneer of Sherman County, who! passed away in South Omaha at 10:12 a m. Monday. Mr. Thompson came to Loup City in tiie early seventys and at tiie time of his death was be tween seventy and erghty years old. He had a wide circle of friends and acquaintances and tiie iiereaved fam ily have the sympathy of tiie entire community. Tiie remains were laid tv> rest in the Austin cemetery at 1:30 p. m. Wednesday. A HARD PAIR TO BEAT Loup City can boast of two of the best regulated depots that can be found any old place and it would be a bard matter to say which is the better. Danielson at the B. & M. is ail that oolite, accomodating and! businesslike means and the only kick) ever beard on Coilipriestof the C. P. i is that'that blooming name of his is) so hard to spell correctly. The duties! of a depot agent in a small town are j many and trying but the two gentle i en above mentioned get away with it and holler for more. NEW PAPER NICE La~‘ Friday Attorney Starr put I on Ins oid gray bonnet, sallied forth to the wall piper store, procured some several hunches of flowers on paper and told the man with the big brush to do his worst or something to that effeet. We had the misfortune w idle on a still hunt for news that day. weal! Starr to the Dhone—bnt the words were entirely too descrip tive fur publication. The new paper does look nice. WE GET A BRICK Last week it escaped our memory to mention the receipt of a brick, from tiie Ohlsen plant in this city, which compares favorably with the highest priced product on the market. In tinish it is as hard and smooth as the finest pressed brick and will doubtless be used extensively in the better grade of building ’ in this vicinity in the future.

On the Government irrigated homesteads in the vicinity of Ralston, Powell and Garland, «yo.. and along the Yellowstonejriver near Hnntley, Mont., there are magnificent crops of alfalfa, wheat, oats, potatoes, sugar beets, etc. An ample supply of water is furnished through the season by the Gov ernment. Aloug the Big Horn River, upon lands under the Carey Act, there are likewise extensive areas of profitable crops. Tlie Government irrigated homesteads under the new Ralston unit are now avulabe for entry. These include some of the most valuable add easily irrigated lands in the Basin. They are surrounded by protecting and mag nificent mountain ranges. Local and Government agents holp you in everv way to select your land, and they take a deep interest in the devolpment of your farm. The writer visited that locality the week of Aug. 6th to 12th and saw everywhere such excellant yields, such highly developed farms, <wmk full of water, fast growing towns, new land going under cultivation, as to war rant this statement, that there are not today, in the United States, better chances for successful farming and future homes than upon the irrigated lands of the above named regions. Join our personally conducted excursions during the autumn and see for yourself what I om trying to make plain to you. D- CLEM DEAVER, Immigration Agent 1004 Famam St, Omaha, Neb.
