Under date of the 25th we had our
first word from J. A. Turner at the
World's fair. He says, among other
things, that Adolph Sauer called Thurs
day, also Sam. Friedhof. Big crowds
visit the school daily, about 17,000 yes

big a thing to see in a short time, some

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.

S. K. Wombold of Gothenburg was
in the city Monday on his way south.
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.

One day last week Albert Gerber
found, on a meadow at William Ernst's

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.
John and one of his boys had been to

all the thousand things that eastern folks
know so well how to provide. All their
beef steak comes from Chicago in refrig
erator cars, aud costs there 22 cents,
round 15, eggs 25, hard coal $6.00, wood

principal crop is grapes and other fruits,
besides plenty of rocks and hills. All
aro well, but pretty tired tramping
around.
Y. 31. C. A. Notes.
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. Nebraska Farmer.
