YesleYday, but tod late for pub lication this week, we received an interesting letter from Denver, by B. E. Rogers. We shall be glad to hear from him often.

Fortunately for both the collision was slight, t but one can readily imagine how dangerous the situa tion and how fatal had the main features, been .intensified.

He -describes the depth of mud iu eastern Iowa and Illinois as fear ful.

A. C. Turner of this office su red very severely on Monday from strangulated hernia. Drs. Mitchell AcHartyti .were called in.the evening and gave their patient relief iu a very few minutes. Dr. Mitchell tells us o g method of permanently, curing hernia, by hypodermal injection near ,the. part affected, causing a growth across the opening. He says the inventor has had a thousand cases. and never lost one. This in formation may be of great value to some amoug the many who are rup- taretl, artd who are thereby very veryf ficted fcerioufllv impeded in their wor 'l A great joiaBy.pereons affli with lung disease have found tem porary or permanent relief breath ing the pure air of Nebraska. We have in memory now two men who came here in 1870, almost doad, spit ting blood and corruption,- hardly expecting to live through an other winter, who this daycare, enjoying reasonably good health, and are liv ing with Borne hope in .the world. When it is remembered that this country rises in elevation from the Missouri river to the summit of the Rocky Mountain range, and that Nebraska is a gently-sloping plateau at the very foot of the range, it will jaot"be surprising that our climate is the admiration of all who experience its benefits. The mock Problem- Rural Hill, Jan. 29, '80. Editok Journal: In your last issue uuder the head of "An As tounding Couut" Mr. Geo. Baruum makes a slight mistake iu counting eleeen years instead of ten, as his own figures will show : C'W'3 c'vs y'gs 1 1 1 1 2 2 3 3 5 5 8 8 13 13 21 21 34 34 55. 55 89 89 1 1 2 3 5 S 13 21 34 1872? 1873 1874 1875 XOfl. lOf.l - -kr 1878 ... . ...... 1879 1880.."...'. Total 233 It will be seen by the above fig ures that there are 11 years counted, or If Mr. Barnum does not tako the first calf a3 the product of the first year, then he starts out in 1871 with ono cow, one calf and one yearling. Had Mr. Barnum stopped at the tenth year (1879) ho would have had 144 head, which is the iucrease from one cow in ten years, supposing of course that all steer calves arc. ex changed for heifers, and that the heifers begin to bear at the age of two years.

J!ntlr CoHHiy. From the Republican. David City now has an abuudauce of coal. Missouri Summit, Ft. Scott, Rock Spriugs and Blossburg rang ing in price from $0.50 to $11 per ton. The L. & N. W. outfit cars havo been moved to tho next statiou north. They will soou reach the Platte where they will be detained for some time. Citizens of Columbus are moving in the direction of utilizing the im mense water power of the Loupe river. Columbus has sufficient wealth and we believe sufficient bus ness energy to avail hersolf of every advantage which nature affords her. Her "strong hold" now lies in build ing up manufacturing interests nnd we believe her wide-awake capital ists will be equal to the emergency. The railroad company calls the new station on the Valley 'Tlatte," while the citizens call it Bell wood. Tho Republican thinks that "Bell wood" would bo the more appro priate name Inasmuch as there are already a number of towns in the state which have tho cognomen "Platte," such as Platleville, North Platte, Platte Center, etc. But as the town is of vastly more import ance than the name, we don't pur pose to worry about it. .. C'heee Factory. David Anderson informs ns that he recently conversed with A. N. Beard, a citizen of Illinois, and a practical cheese-maker, who is look ing up a location in Nebraska. He wishes to locate in a neighborhood where he can be guaranteed the milk from 200 cows, for which he will agree to pay two cts. a quart, or make cheese on the shares. This is one of the enterprises that will pay "big'' in Nebraska, and every neighborhood where thero are a sufficient number of cows should secure a cheese factory. Those who have an inclination to use this op portunity can address, for the next thirty days, A. N. Beard, Grand Is land, Nebr., where ho is now stop ping. h 'V . . . . ' Farmers are oegmmug to lay out their spring work in earnest. Thousands of dollars are saved by plauning well, and many a man and woman, too, would save themselves a great deal of drudgery and bard muscular labor, by planning their work better than they do. Of course there is nothing that will take the place of the actual work, but we know that many unnecessary steps and strokes and motions can be sav ed by a-systematic planning of work to be donomotbods to bo pursued, investments to be made, fcc, &c. Better plans will make men and women better, more prosperous and happy. . Wasted. A girl to do general house work at the boarding house of A. M. Jen nings ; apply immediately. Judge Abbott of Lincoln, attor ney for the Lincoln & Northwestern road, was in the city several days last week, ne propared and sub mitted to the Council an ordinance for the vacatiou of certaiu streets north of the U. P. track. At the meeting of the Council Saturday evening the ordinance was read a first and second time and referred to the Judiciary Committee, which will report ou the same at an ad journed meeting to be held Febru ary 21st. The location of tho L. & N. W. depot is a matter of no little importance to business men, resi dents and property owners of the city, and should be thoroughly dis cussed by them. For our part we beliove that the best interests of the city call for a Union depot of the two companies. The town has suffered enough already by tho jauglings of the past on account of the dividing line of one track of railroad, aud, instead of increasing that feeling, every eflbrt should be made to dissipate it. If we cannot possibly have a Union depot, then let the new one be located where it will do tho least harm to property and business interests. ThH can be done without at all antagonizing the new road, because tho real interests of that and tho city are one. - Letter Llftt.
