Last fall Robert Smith sold his farm of 160 acres near Warnerville for $3,200, and loading his personal effects into a wagon, started south to the land of prom ise. After wandering around Missouri, ansas and Oklahoma the greater portion of a year, and failing to find any location that suited him he returned to Madison county recently and purchased from R. C. Milligan eighty acres three miles west of Norfolk, paying therefor $2,200, or $27.50 an acre, nearly once and a half as muck-as he received for his farm last fall. The Cedar Rapids Commercial is the first newspaper in this region to note the name of one of the "old boys" whose scalps Cleveland's Hoke Smith is after. It says: "P. D. Wakeland received no tice last Saturday from the pension de partment that he was suspended from the rolls and was ordered to report for re-examination inside of Bixty day6. Mr. Wakeland is the first old soldier in this vicinity to be jusjgnded. The beauty (?) of theaduunistration's pension policy is beginning to be apparent." The most thoroughly despised man now breathing the free and unlimited air of America, goes by the name of Hoke Smith. The old soldiers who turned in and helped to elect Grover Cleveland president are now put to the trouble and expence of limping to the inspector's of fice to show cause why their suspended pensions should not be permanently lop ped off. The worst feature of the case is that the innocent must suffer with the guilty. State Journal.

He met a number of gentlemen who had been interested in the canal power en terprise, at the residence of Adolph Jaeggi. He is a very intelligent gentle man, and has had large experience in manufacturing enterprises. Ho had prepared a profile of the canal showing the distance, fall, etc.; in the six miles length of the canal, allowing a fall of six feet (one foot to the mile) for the flow of the water, there is yet a fall of 34 feet for working force. The number of horse-power is found by multiplying together the width of the canal, 80 feet, the depth, 6 feet, the velocity of the water, 150 feet to the mile, the weight of a cubic foot of water, 62 pounds, and the fall of the water, 34 feet, and divid ing by 33,000, and gives 4,636 horse power. Mr. Wombold says that this canal, rightly constructed here on the valley, would give us an increaso of our population of 75 per cent in three years; that there is no doubt whatever but with such a splendid power as wo evi dently have here, the factories would come are bound to come. km nimimiBiemHinifMii 5- BMMjfmffft!fimifHMMlMWWMWtMWlHBBiHlIlWllMWWEw,w ' !

Coroner Heintz, while retain ing the skull here, advised them to bury the other remains where they found them. The North Loup Loyalist is setting forth in brilliant phrases the beauties and the benefits of irrigation in the Loup valley, and among its interesting paragraphs is the following: "The first English speaking commun ity to adopt the practice of irrigation on a large scale was the Greeley-Union colony at Greeley, Colorado. Begin ning its operations upon a barren plain of cactus, and passing through the ex perimental stage with many disconrage ments, it is now a solid and prosperous community, shipping out of potatoes alone from 1500 to 2000 carloads a j'ear. Wonlditdo anything towards helping out the "hard times" in tho Loup valley if our farmers could ship out about 100 train loads of potatoes of 15 cars each? The supply in Omaha is reported "very light and the market firm." There is no question but irrigation would make this portion of Nebraska one of tho most productive portions of tho globe, and that each year, almost unfailingly, as the water supply from the Loup is abundant. Don't forget to prepare something for the Platte county fairs. It will pay you in more ways than one. In merely determining what you will take you will doubtless think of many important little things that have escaped your attention for some lime. There is nothing like go ing over your possessions once in a while to see what you really have got around you. A little thought of how your prod ucts may chance to look in the eyes of your acquaintances will not hurt the just pride that you should always entertain for what is yours because it is yours. Then, wife and children will think no less of yon if you provide that all of them shall have good opportunity to attend the fair. Try it and see how it works. W. H. Lewis has received word from John Wiggins, at Highland, N. Y. Tliey were having a very pleasant time, al though the weather was unusually warm.

The subject next Sunday is "Men too busy to be saved." Last Sunday closed the meetings in the park for this season. K. P. Riser of Fremont addressed the peoylo at tho park service last Sunday. A union meeting was held in tho Con gregational church Inst Sunday, Henry Zinnecker delivering the address to a crowded house. E. F. Riedout of North Platte, who was to have been here last Sunday, did not arrive, but he ib expected to speak hero in the near future. This is how it works. Tho particles of earth tend to crystallize, so to speak, and thus leavo little airspaces all through the soil. Thon tho ram water in sinking into the soil makes a great number of minute, crooked wells with thoir moutlis open to the sun's rays. Immediately after the rain has ceased the sun comes out and begins pumping the water out of these crooked little wells and storing it again in the clouds, but by shallow cul tivation the tops of these little wells are broken off, or filled with fine soil. Tho water is thus held prisoner till the roots of the plants pump it up and put it to some use. This is why we cultivsito shal low and often.
