Mr Sweariitjfen of Clear Creek
has picked eight quarts of goose
berries from one of his bushes this

be less call for pills.

Anderson & Roeu, returned Friday

sin, in the latter state being now

city on a visit Tuesday of last week.
Thompson returned to his home

Of course it is little use to tell
the public of central Nebraska that
Messrs Becher & Price are the "boss"
insurance agents, and are ready at
all times to write policies to suit all
sorts of customers, but it may be
well enough to let people know that
this firm have money to loan, more
than ever, and cheaper than ever.
Call and see them.
A light shower Monday morn
ing helped to put the atmosphere
in good shape for harvest, moat of
which will probably bo done in this
county this week. Much of the oats
is lodged, and more or less damage
has been done to wheat by the
chinch bugs. Every -now and then
you will hear a farmer say, This is
my last wheat year.
The members constituting the
Keystone Base Ball Club of this
city have become quite proficient
players and would be pleased to
hear from clubs of other portions of
of Nebraska. Any club visiting
Columbus will be guaranteed a
good game and an excellent time.
The boys would be pleased to hear
from Omaha, Fremont or Grand
Island.
Mr. Dunsford expects to have
anywhere between a thousand and
fifteen hundred bushels of onions to
harvest this fall.- We believe that
when our people come to thoroughly
know the capacity of Nebraska soil
for potatoes and onions, that they
will be the best paying crop raised
here. These vegetables are always
a good price, and nearly always
very productive.
The Fair and Driving Park
Association promises to be a success.
It is proposed to form a joint-stock
company, purchase a suitable tract
of land, fence it, erect suitable build
ings, and have here a place for exhi
bitions that will be a credit to the
city. It is thought that with such
grounds, we can in a year or so
secure the state fair. The last we
heard, some $1,700 in stock had been
subscribed.
All along, a very considerable
portion of the current family ex
penses on the farms of Nebraska
have been provided for by the sale
of butter and eggs, but we venture
to predict that these two items will
figure more largely in future calcu
lations. The business has assumed
wonderful proportions for Colum
bus. Messrs. Ransdall & Shotwell
give, as their shipments for the two
months, ending July 10th, 2S,9G0 doz.
eggs, and 99,194 pounds of butter,
aud of this latter, 71,000 pounds
were shipped in June.
The Nellie Boyd theatrical com
bination commenced an engagement
of three nights at the Opera House
Monday evening, opening with the
thrilling drama "Forget Me Not,"
which was well calculated to test the
ability of the troupe. The play was
a success, and it was plainly appar
ent to the audience that theNellie
Boyd Combination are well up in
their profession. To-night is their
last ; we do not know the title of the
play that will be put on, but the
reportoire of the troupe embraces
nothing but first-class plays and
there need be no fears but the audi
ence will be well entertained.
City AfTnlrs.
Ed. Jourxal : There seems to be
a desire on the part of some few of
our citizens, that Columbus should
fund its indebtedness by voting ten
thonsand dollars in bonds. Wheth
er such a movement is suggested by
holders of city warrants is not
known, as yet.
Would it not be better for our
city fathers to curtail expenses, as
the city authorities did last year, and
bring the credit of the city up in that
manner, than to impose a bonded
debt upon us? Have we not bonds
enough already? Do not some of
your readers recollect about the
145,000 funding bonds imposed mys
teriously on Platte county a few
years ago, and what a bonanza it was
for the holders of county orders that
had been bought up at a discount?
Suppose that amount of bonds are
voted, and matters go on thus, taxes
will be levied as usual, the city
fathers will create debts in expect
ency that the taxes will bo collected,
but if it- should happen that they
were not to any greater extent than
they had been in the past, we would
be obliged to fund our debt again in
three or four years. Ex-Mayor
Becker's policy iu that behalf was
the best one ever adopted by any
city officials, viz: reduce munincipal
expense, collect the taxes as far as
they can be and the people will be
better off every way; the value of
city warrants will rise, consequently
there will be less speculation there
in, all being obliged to pay their
taxes, the burden will not fall on a
few, aud no fuuding bonds will then
be needed. Nemo.
John Knobel recently went to
Chicago with a car load of hogs, and
after disposing of them visited
friends in Wisconsin. He reports
the crop prospect as good, and farm
ers in excellent spirits. In the re
gion he visited the dairy occupies
the largest share of attention. A
great deal of cheese is made which
now readily brings nine to thirteen
cents a pound. Mr. Knobel says
that farmers owning forty to
iiftv
cows have told him they raake
twelve hundred to fifteen hundred
dollars in a season selling the milk,
and he thinks that farmers could not
find a more profitable thing here
than to club together and operate
creameries. Our butter market (ow
ing to the mining country west of
us) is good, and constantly growing
better, and Nebraska grasses are
among the best tor butter an
il
cheese. We heartily coincide with
Mr. Knobel. Let Nebraska lands
be fenced at the earliest practicable
moment, to the end that cattle, hor
ses, sheep and hogs may gather their
living during the summer months,
at will, from Nebraska's main source
of wealth, the grasses; let perennial
tame grasses be substituted for the
wild grass, to lengthen the grazing
season at both ends ; let the great
body of wh.it is raised on the farm
in the shape of graiu be fed on the
place, and then let each farmer set
before himself the problem of pro
ducing the most valuable commodi
ty, in the least bulk, for the lowest
outlay wool, mutton, beef, pork,
butter, cheese, etc.
