sult of ten years' special research of

one or two stanzas of each of the songs

the text of each in full. Among thrse
arc many Nebraska favorites, including
the famous Cat Creel CJ lee Club song
of Farmers' Alliance days, "We'll Meet1
Yon By and By," and the "Kinkaiders' '
Song." The book is illustrated with '
halftones of Moses I' Kinkaid, and
typical scenes on the Nebraska frontier
This book is tiie first step toward a '
complcto volume containing the words
and music of all Nebraska folk song
All persous interested in this subject
arc asked to write Miss I'ound sending
copies of songs not in print which they
have heard sung in this state.

A now ruling made by the. Burling
ton went into effect last week, and as
a result retailers of produce in car lots
can not make sales from the company's
cars. Potatoes, apples, cabbage, etc.,
must first be unloaded and offered for
sale outside of the railroad right-of-way.
While the new order works a
hardship on all shippers, at tho same
time it will do away with the retailer
who sells in transit, and place the bale
of produce in the hands of local men.
