The agitation for a public library in Loup City is again under way and we may soon have one of the best li braries in the state. The city council may vote a three mill levy for the maintainence of a library and will probably do so. The Carnegie Li brary commission will donate the money for the building, if the city will furnish the site and a small sum for maintainance, and the three mill levy would furnish enough money to in sure Loup City a splendid building. The library commission will donate ten dollars for every one given by the city, so $1,000 raised by the city would mean a $11,000 building and so on up. The following in regard to public li braries in the state is of interest: The rate of growth and the condi tion of the libraries of the state are satisfactory. During the last two years, libraries have been established in Cedar Rapids, Gothenburg, Hart ington, Harvard, Hooper, Beaver Crossing, Creighton, Murray, Salem, Wayside and Shubert, while Benson, Dundee, and Ralston have made levies in order to contract with Omaha for the use of its library. The libraries at Auburn, Crawford, Friend, Fuller ton, Sidney, Spalding, and Stanton, previously established and maintained by clubs or library associations, have become tax supported libraries. There are now only three towns of over 2,000 population which have not made provisions for public libraries. These are University Place, Wymore and Wahoo. In all of these places, however, the question is receiving serious consideration. There are only 17 towns with a population of over 1,000 which have no libraries. Appre ciation of the work of the library is shown in increased levies. The aver age levy is now 2 mills as compared with 1.7 mills of two years ago, while 18 towns have levied 3 mills which is the maximum. The following towns have received gifts for library buildings from Mr. Carnegie in the specified amounts: Bloomfield, $5,000; Broken Bow, $10, 000; Burwell, $5,000; Collegs View, $7,500; Columbus, $13,000; Crete, $10, 000 Fairfield, $6,000; Fullerton, $7,000; Hartington, $10,000; O’Neill, $10,000; Shelton, $8,000; Sidney, $6,000; Stan ton, $8,000; Gothenburg, $8,000; Har vard, $6,000; while J. W. Gilbert has given the town of Friend $7,000 for a library building. There are now 55 library buildings completed or under construction in the state. THE QUESTION OF STREETS. “In the last annual meeting of the Loup City Commercial club the ques tion of oiled roads pertaining to our streets in Loup City was considered. Successful information may be ob tained from any city official at Blair, Nebraska, where oiled streets have been very satisfactory and this work has only been recently. The application of only two gallons of oil per square yard of surface, ap plied directly on the earth roads and allowed to settle before traffic moves on them, would be a small expense as compared with solid pavement. Of course the question of oiled streets and their cost depends quite largely on the condition of the soil. With the base of only two gallons of oil per square yard of surface it would be an extremely low expense, if the undertaking would be tried as an ex periment. Let the commercial club try one block in length of our city street and 8ee of what result the experiment will prove.” The above referring to oiled roads Is the opinion of a young business man of Loup City and his idea is a good one. But while experimenting with the streets of Loup City why not use gravel on one block and note the improvement. We have in mind a small town in Saline county, DeWitt, where the streets were always muddy and in bad condition. The citizens of the town got busy and hauled many loads of gravel upon the streets after the streets had been properly graded, dumping the gravel into the mud and workink it into the soil. After a short time more gravel was put on the streets and at the pres ent time the streets of that town are practically as good as paved streets, and costing but a fraction of what pavement would cost. The Northwestern would like to see something done in regard to this mat ter. Loup City, with very little work and expense could be made one of the prettiest towns in the state. MONEY AND ITS MAKING. To make money is comparatively easy. To save it is more difficult. To .make it grow is a problem. 4 And not all of us are able to solve the problem. But if ever there was a time when we faced the opportunities for making money grow, that time is now. Everybody knows that thjp pros perity of the nation depends primari ly upon the farmer and his crops. If he plants in large acreages, and na ture is good to him, his yield is bounti ful and he becomes the harbinger of an era of prosperity. When the farmer is plentifully sup plied with funds he wants new ma chinery and more machinery, and the n.aking of these gives employment to millions of people. These people in turn have money to spend and the merchant begins to increase the volume of his business and gather in greater profits. And as it is with these, so it is all down the line and extending into every industry and into every home. This year the farmers of this coun try marketed the greatest crop in his tory, the total value of the leading crops reaching the astounding figure of over $1,280,000,000. This exceeds last year’s yield by over $415,000,000. The making of money by the people of this community the coming year will depend greatly upon the farmers of our community. If they increase their acreage the wealth of the com munity will be enhanced in proportion, and through the logical routine of barter and trade it finds its way into every artery of town, farm and coun tryside. The year to come will witness a tremendous demand for farm products. This demand will come from every section of the globe and the buyer pays in gold. For this reason we urge upon every farmer the advisability, even the vital importance, of cultivating every pos sible foot of ground, even to the doub ling of your acreage if such a thing be within the bounds of possibility. The opportunity for making money is before you—the greatest you have ever seen, possibly greater than you will ever see again. You are our mainstay, our backbone, the one man upon whom we all de pend, to whom we all turn as the child turns to its mother. Your success will be our success, your prosperity our prosperity, your advancement our advancement. You are the man of the hour, and the opportunity is before you. PAPER GOING UP. The price of all grades of paper is steadily raising, because of the ad vance in prices of materials used in paper making. Soon many grades of paper will have doubled in price. Here are a few of the increased prices of materials used in the manu facture of paper that have taken place during the past year: Alum, from 1 to 4 cents per pound; bleach, from 1% to 7 cents per pound; aniline (dyes), from 40 cents to $20 per pound; casein (for coated paper), from 6% to 23 cents per pound;satin white, dry, from 5 to 9 cents per pound; soda ash, from 65 cents to $1.03 p'er hundredweight; bleached sulphite, from $2.65 to $4 per hundredweight; thirds and blues (rags), from $1.35 to $2.35 per hun dredweight; magazine stock, from $1 to $1.35 per hundredweight; rosin, from $3.75 to $6.50 per barrel; four drinier wires, from 29 to 39 cents per square foot; lumber for cases, from $13 to $18.50 per thousand feet; wool en and cotton felts, used on papepr machines, advanced 10 per cent. And the full effect of these increases has been passed on by the manufacturers to job printers and newspaper pub lishers. A man will tighten his belt and chase a rabbit all day without a thought of hunger or fatigue. But when his wife wants an armful of wood he promptly sends the kid. Shoe pinch? It costs from $1 to $5 to see a good show. And it costs nothing to hear a better sermon right in this town. Trot along! There are two things a wise man never does but once—twist the cat’s tail and tread on his wife’s corns. Perseverance is an admirable trait, but without the safety valve of com mon sense it becomes a menace. Tell every stranger you met that this is a good town. In time you may think So yourself. “Push and Go” is bully in a kid, provided it doesn’t require a push to make him go. There’s a time for work and a time for play, but some people forget to wind the clock. And what office do you want? E. F. Kozel was up from Rockville on business Wednesday. Mr. Kozel is a member of the firm of Kozel & Sorensen of that town. Kozel & Soren sen is a firm that is progressive and evidence of their progressiveness will be found in their half page advertise ment in this issue. PUBLIC SALE.
