Wm. Routson was working at
one of the sprinklers the other day,
getting it ready for service. Just
think of it, dusty roads and streets
here, and snow, slush and mud in
nearly all the states east of us!
Hon. W. A. McAllister tells us
that the bill introduced by Senator
Brown of Douglas county, making an
appropriation of $10,000 for the pur
chase of machinery for prospecting
for coal, etc., did not become a law.
Louis Peterson was found dead
in the public road near Lost Creek
Friday week. He wa9 returning home
from Columbus, and it is supposed
that he fell from his wagon, breaking
his ceck when he struck the ground.
A Polander, whose name we did
not learn, living near Dr. Edwards's,
on Sunday last lost his stable, two
horses, cow and calf, and a hog, all
the stock he had. A spark from the
house chimney lit upon the roof of
the stable.
Those farmers contemplating the'
erection of barns for cattle, should see
J. H. Meyer's if they are in doubt as
to how they want their barns made.
In his he has convenient divisions for
housing the large stock separate from
the calves, and also places for storing
hay, and a passage-way for wagon
and team.
Win. Matson in discussing the
question of seed corn says that he
has not found trouble in Nebraska
with seed as compared with Illinois,
and that the germ has to be very poor
here not to grow. In his immediate
neighborhood there was a good show
er of rain when the corn was filling
that made it plump, full and good.
The written work of the public
schools will be arranged in order in
the several rooms Friday next. The
rooms will open to patrons and others
feeling an interest in the matter, from
2 to 4 o'clock p. m. This iB a some
what new feature in school work, and
it is hoped that parents and others
will call at the rooms aud examine the
work at the time named.
Mr. Musgrave tells ns that of
grains of corn which he took from
ears selected as he generally has for
seed, it all grew well. He will try
an experiment on a larger scale. He
believes, however, that his corn of
last year's growth is thoroughly good
for seed. Like all other good farmers,
he believes in having no reasonable
doubt about a matter of so much im
portance. Dan Reagan, for assaulting Frank
Paproski at Platte Center, was found
guilty by a jury and fined $5.00 by
Justice Shaffer. The costs and fine
amounted to $70. A citizen of that
neighborhood thinks the fine of $5 00
is very little, considering that the as
sault was unprovoked and outrageous,
Paproski being beat about the face,
aud kicked in the ribs, so that he has
not been able to work until Monday.
Wiggins (not our John) claimB
that his storm prophecy has been lit
erally fulfilled, and believes hundreds
of thousands of lives have been des
troyed on the shores of the Bay of
Bengal by tidal wave on the 10th, a
small edition of which, he claims,
6truck this continent. He claims he
iB able to foretell 6torms, heat, cold,
and high tides. Wiggins will be in
big demand about the Fourth of July.
John Heitkemper has removed
his grocery to the corner of 11th and
Madison streets. Thanking bis nu
merous customers for their patronage,
he desires to call their attention to
the fact that in his new, commodious
establishment he will be better able
to serve them, and would be glad to
have them call. To all others, he de
sires to say, call and be convinced
that he will sell the best of groceries
for the lowest jiving profits.
Notwithstanding that occasion
ally we have a coo! breeze from the
north, it is the general opinion that
we are to have an early spring, and
therefore it is well for farmers to get
implements in order for the spring
work; see that plows, seeders, har
rows, etc. are in good repair ; mend
the harness, and give the horses that
are to do the work extra care and
attention that they maybe In excel
lent trim.
Joseph Curren, who nsed to be in
Columbus very often in the olden
times, paid onr burg a visit one day
last week and of course called on the
Journal office. From Mr. Curren's
conversation we would infer that
Polk county is not behind the rest of
Nebraska in her material welfare, and
a little ahead of the general average
in prospects political. Things are not
altogether as they used to be, accord
ing to Joseph.
A social party was given by Mrs.
H. C. Mowrey in honor of Miss Mc
Gee, of Massachusetts, a cousin of
Mrs. Mowrey, at her residence near
the court house. Invitations were ac
cepted by about twenty-five of her
frieuds. The evening was enjoyed
very much, the time being spent so
cially and ending with a first-class
supper. The several entertainments
given by this lady during the winter
are evideuces of a superior talent in
the art of entertaining.
We beliove we have not hereto
fore mado a note of the fact that it is
reported that coal oil has been discov
ered on the water drawn from a well
in Salem, Richardson county. We are
getting a little excited over these con
tinuous reports of coal indications,
and appearances of oil, and must ex
press the desire, which we have in
common with Nebraskans generally,
that work be hurried up and investi
gations go deeper into the bowels of
the earth, to the end that faith may be
swallowed up of knowledge.
R. W. Gregg of Genoa was in
town Thursday and called at the
Journal office on business. In con
versation with him we learned that
there are two companies at Genoa,
prospecting for coal, one of them on
Mr. Gregg's farm, east of the Beaver,
the other about half a mile from Genoa
and west of the Beaver. The latter
are down 100 feet. At 20 feet they
struck a soft, white limestone, to
which they have sunk a shaft about
eight feet square. From that down
they have been going through slate
and soapstone. They have strong
faith that there is coal below them at
no great distance.
Iu company with Hon. Guy Bar
num the other day we made the
rounds of the corn cribs in town, and
examined some of the best ears we
could find, and out of some sixty we
found but one that we thought would
grow. Those who have not carefully
looked at their corn will be very much
surprised to find so many of the germs
of last - year's growth absolutely
worthless. Nebraska corn of '82 looks
well and is good for feed, excellent,
but the germs are mostly destroyed.
We had the opportunity of examining
the germs under Dr. Schug's very
powerful miscroscope, and they pre
sent the appearance of having been
frozen aud thawed a mushy look.
Those of ub who have had any expe
rience whatever in re-planting, on
account of poor seed, know very well
that it is the worst kind of -an invest
ment. At last we can have the electric
light where it can do the most good.
That is to say we can put it now on
our desks, on our tables, on our mantel-pieces,
anywhere in fact where a
clear, bright, 6afe lighter is wanted.
The portable electric lighter, patented
in 1879 and again in 1882, is now be
fore us, and we look at it with sur
prise and happiness. Surprise, be
cause it is evident how great a pro
gress we have made in the science of
electricity ; happinesB, because it gives
a clearer, belter, more movable light
than any we have ever enjoyed. Here
is a lamp, so called, occupying only
the space of five square inches, which
can be carried anywhere, and is be
sides an ornament. By simply press
ing npon the knob to the full extent
of the spring (which connects with
the battery) an electric current is pro
duced by which the spiral of platinum
is heated to incandescence and the
light is instantaneous. The material
lasts about two months and can then
be renewed at a small cost through
any chemist. It will not belong be
fore everybody will have a portable
electric lighter. The price, 5, is so
low that it cannot fail to become pop
ular at once. The principal office is
at 22 Water street, Boston, where all
applications for this most novel lamp
should be sent. New York Heal Es

Clear Creek, Polk Co., Neb.,)
March 8tb, 1S83.
Editor Journal : I will drop you
a few lines from Clear Creek to keep
me out of mischief for a few minutes,
as I believe that I am possessed with
some evil spirit and think that I
might as well work a little of it off in
writing a few lines to the Journal.
I took a trip to Belwood last week ;
on my way down I went by the great
Butler county coal mines, but I failed
to see any coal, so I made up my mind
that we would have to resort to some
other method for cheap fuel.
I do not see what has become of
that retort business that was in opera
tion a year or so ago in Columbns,
that was going to burn up all the
surplus water in Nebraska in connec
tion with a tew barrels of Pennsylva
nia naptba; water has been quite
plentiful this spring and the Colum
bus Retort Co. are letting it all go to
waste by having their water and oil
burner laid np on the shelf to dry.
Bellwood is a lively little town, and
there seems to be an immense busi
ness done there in the coru trade for
there are scores of cribs filled to the
tops with thousands of bushels of
corn. Phil. Walker, who used to be
one. of the. brass button force in Co
Inmbus, cuts quite a lively figure in
the grain trade at Bellwood.
I was up to Osceola this week ;
found the roads in quite good condi
tion, and in some places perfectly dry.
I saw dozens of farmers husking corn
as I drove along; stock of all kinds
look well in this locality. I attribute
this to the good judgment of Polk
county farmers in not being afraid to
feed a few bushels of 30-cent coru to
their stock. In my opinion there is
only one way to raise first-class stock,
and that is to give them first-class
care. People in this part of Nebraska
are a little slow in getting started in
a good breed of cattle and hogs. They
put it off from year to year. I sup
pose they think tnat they will be
more able after a while, but they are
losing precious time. It is better to
keep a less number and better quali
ty. It would pay some of our scrub
stock raisers to go on the Big Island
and have a little talk with Shep Ray
mond in regard to good cattle. He
can give them a few lessons that will
be beneficial to them be has a few
very nice specimens of the short-horn
breed on Mr. Abner Turner's ranche,
and it seems to do the fat man good
to show his neighbors the difference
between good and poor stock.
Now we will give you a little chin
music on the bridge question. It is
the general inquiry on this side of the
Platte, when you meet a man since
the bridge has been taken out, "Well,
where are you going to go, now, to
get to market, you cannot get to Co
lumbus ?" And the answer is, "Well,
we can go to Bellwood or to Osceola
or to Duacan." It is surprising to
the natives to think that the amount
of enterprise that Columbus and Platte
county have credit of will put off
building a good substantial draw
bridge that will laud a customer safe
and sound in Columbus 365 days in a
year. I should think that the Colum
bus business men would havo the
peace and quiet of their midnight
slumbers disturbed by dreams of
hearing tho creaks aud rattles of that
old rattle-trap of a temporary bridge
that has to be pulled out every few
days and laid up on the bank to dry.
I should tbiuk that they could see
hundreds of loads of grain drive up
to the bank of the river where the
bridge ought to be and turn for Bell
wood, there to dispose of their load
and give the Bellwood merchant the
many silver dollars that Columbus is
losing while their bridge is piled up
to rest. As the old saying is, "Speak
well of a bridge that carries you safe
over," but what will you say of a
bridgo that has beeu all carried over
to the other side? Hoping that I
shall have better judgment than to
wear tho soles off from my shoes in
counting the ties from tho railroad
bridge to Columbus, I remain yours
with respect,
Geo. E. Barnum.
