An experiment on the Atchison, To peka & Santa Fe railroad, dating back to 1881, which shows that 40 per cent of fifty Colorado pine ties were yet in the track after 12 years’ exposure, indicates that the average life of ties treated by the zinc tannin process will not be less than 12 years. Unprepared oak ties cost about 53 cents each, and some 25 cents more for hauling, distributing and lay ing, making a total of 78 cents each. Hence, as they last 8 years, their average annual cost is 9.66 cents. The Burnett ized ties are said to cost 72 cents each under like conditions, and as they last 12 years, the annual average charge is 6 cents, thus indicating an economy of 3.66 cents per year per tie, or, when 2,640 are laid per mile, of $96 per year per mile of tTack. A Card of Thanks. Messrs. Flitcraft & Clark of the River side dairy, desire in this way to express to the people of McCook their apprecia tion of and gratitude for the hearty and continuous support extended to the Riv erside dairy during the years it has been under their management and ownership.

Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov’t Report ABSOLUTELY PURE Children Cry for Pitcher’s Castoria. The Burlington people are at present engaged in solving knotty problems af fecting the opening of the Billings line. To the outsider the matter of making trains meet at certain points seems to be the easiest thing imaginable, and it is when you know what connections you have to make between meeting points, but when a railroad opens up an abso lutely new territory, making connections with a competing line hundreds of miles away, the problem becomes decidedly brain-racking and neurasthenia is likely to result. The passenger dpartment of the Burlington having the matter of pas senger train service in charge is wrest ling with the question as to what inter mediate points in the new line time card can be dropped out of consideration in arranging the schedule for the 10:15 train, which will handle the Billings business for the winter. Next spring, however, a late afternoon train will be put on and the 10:15 train made second ary. While the general points are well defined in making a time card, the se rious question which confronts the gen eral passenger agent is, at what places can the train stop for meals and what time will have to be made between inter mediate points in order to handle the business at division points, ami at the same time not interfere with branch line trains. One of the serious questious which enters into the opening of the Billings line is the consideration of whether to run tourist sleepers. Up to the present the question has not been decided, and a meeting of the chiefs of the Burlingtion will have to be held be fore the matter is finally settled. The last spike will soon be driven at Huntley, and already material is enroute for shops and houses for the employes. There is no reason, however, for believing that connection will be made with the North ern Pacific before the last of the mouth, and it will be about October 15th before the first through passenger train is run on the extension. The people in the cities and towns on the line of the Burlington toward the northwest are now hearing pleasing ru mors about the establishment of a fast train between Lincoln and Billings to connect the Chicago-Denver flyers with the Northern Pacific trains to the Pacific coast. They will then be on one of the great transcontinental roads instead of on a stub line leading to nowhere. The completion of the new line to Bill ings, with the inauguration of a new and improved train service, will be a matter for general congratulation in Ne braska, Wyoming and Montana, for it will rebound to the advantage of all three states.—State Journal. The Burlington reported frost at Pal mer, Erricson, Red Cloud, Orleans and Benkelman, last Friday night. List of Patents Received at the United States Land Office, McCook, Nebraska.
