What You Pay For On a Long Distance Cai! In making a long distance telephone call you have the use of more than merely the wires over which you talk. The wires are only a small part of the equip ment provided for a long distance call. There must be switchboards, terminal rooms, pole lines and many other kinds of'hpparatus such as dynamos, batteries, calculagraphs, testing appa- j ratus, repeaters and loading coils to magnify the voice currents, and other expensive equip ment generally unseen by the telephone user. In making a long distance call you have the services of two or more operators who connect you and guard both ends of the line while you talk. In addition to the operators there are other employees watching the equipment in the cen tral offices and repairmen guarding the long distance wires. Repairmen Always Ready Somewhere along the line, the branch of a tree, a strong wind or an electric storm may put the wares out of order. But nearby is a tele phone man ready to hurry to the spot, so that the line may be quickly repaired and service restored. The amount you are charged when you make a long distance call is to help maintain the line, to facilitate the payment of interest on the in vestment in the equipment used for long dis tance, to aid in the payment of taxes on the property and assist in paying the employees’ wages. We endeavor to obtain only such a return on the investment in our long distance lines as could be earned on the money if it were invested □asiness involving equal risk. BIASKA TELEPHONE COMPANY WELCOME NEWS FOR YELLOWSTONE PARK TOURISTS Commencing this Summer all tourist transportation within Yellowstone Park will be by automobile. The White ten-passen ger cars that were so serviceable during 1916 over the Cody Scenic Road will be used throughout the Park Park tickets will cover a complete five-day tour,—in and out the same gateway, or in one gateway and out the other, whether via Cody, Gardiner or Yellowstone. All Park tourist, whether patrons of the hotels or the permanent camps, will be carried in automobiles. Touring the Yellowstone Wonderland by automo bile will, indeed, be a combination of efficiency and luxury. Nothing in the travel world could be more scenic and satisfying than touring Yellowstone by automobile in connection with the Cody scenic route. This early news is given to the public that has long waited for it. Illustrated publications will later be furnished on request by the undersigned.

Kozel & Sorenson are invoicing their hardware stock this week, the rumor being afloat that Mr Kozel has sold out to Mr. Sorenson, Sam taking full possession the first part of next week. We have not learned as yet what Mr. Kozel intends to do in the future.

Markin, 7th and 8th grades, Miss Margaret Mc • Fadden, intermediate room, Miss Eve lyn Nielson and primary room Miss Alice Tangerman. The play, the “New Co-ed” which was given in the opera house last Saturday evening was a success from start to finish. There was a very large crowd present although the weather was not as favorable as it might have bQ^n. Most of the people remained for the dance after the play, for which the Hastings orchestra furnished the music. AN OPEN LETTER. To Mr. Hans Johnson:—As you have hailed me in public, in regard to state I ments of your partiality in your road work, you have made false statements to keep from working the road :n places. There are places in your public roads that are and have been impassable for years. When you were asked to fix them you said you were not going to spend a dollar only on the main travel ed roads. It seems according to your idea the main traveled road is mostly between your house and Loup City. If you have been impartial in your work why did you let part of the main traveled road get in such a shape, that the man who drags that part of the road refused to drag it saying it did no good. Does this uphold the principles you preach in Farmers’ Union work? (adv.) R. R. BAUHARD. AFRAID OF CATS. New York, Mar. 14. The presence of a pet puss in the Twenty-third street recruiting station of the United States marine corps today-caused Wm. James an accepted recruit from Fremont, Ohio, to rush out into the street screaming with terror just as he was about to take the oath that would make him a “soldier of the sea” ready to meet the enemy on the field of battle. “I know I’m a’fraidy cat,” James told Surgeon Weston of the marine corps after he had recovered from the attack of his Strangs malady, "but I simply can’t be in the room where there is a cat. I don’t have to see the cat either. I can feel its presence and it nearly drives me crazy.” James’ case is recognized in medical science as aelurophobia. He was rejected. There have been more automobile asphyxiations in the country this win ter than heretofore and it has prompt ed the government to issue a warning against operating automobile engines in small garages with doors and win dows closed. “On the tests conducted.’’ says the warning, "the air in the ga rage was rendered decidedly dangerous after the automobile engine had been running about fifteen minutes. The gas is carbon monoxide, colorless, odor less and tasteless, and is extremely poisonous. The dangerous symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning comes almost without warning and collapse in a garage generally proves fatal, un less outside aid arrives very soon." A chemist conducting the tests by the government bureau of mines was con siderably affected by the gases. KEEPING FARM RECORDS. How to make an inventory of the farm business is explained in Bulletin No. 41. ‘The Farm Inventory.” just is sued by the Agricultural Extension Service of the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. Blank forms for use during a. four-year period are included in the bulletin, which may be had free upon application to the Extension Service. Reasons why the farmer finds the keeping of farm records advisable are summed up as follows by the farm management department of the univer sity: (1) it provides a means of study ing the farm business; (2) it often set tles disputes, that is, if questions arise in dealing with others, the man who has kept records is best able to make his claims stand: and (3) care fully kept records improve credit. An exchange solemnly informs us that the water of the Antartic ocean is colder than that of the Artie. All right, brother; buy yourself a smoke. PUBLIC SALE.
