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

tion of and gratitude for the hearty and

They will ever hold in pleasant remem
brance and thankfulness the generous
people of McCook, wherever their lot
mav be cast.

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.
