epoch of prosperity and progress recorded
in the history of the human raceAmeri

Nebraska is a state that has been one
of the worst sufferers from the corn crop
failure, yet here is what an Omaha
special says of financial and commercial
conditions there: "Not in ten years has
money been so plentiful and so much in
demand in Nebraska as at present. The
surplus in 'State banks is greater by
$500,000 than six months ago, and bank
ers report loans readily made at 8 per
cent. This is considered extraordinary
in view of the fact that so much money
can be had in different sections of the
state. The stiff interest rate, however,
is due to the increased demand for short
loans. Money is being invested in im
mense sums through Nebraska today.
The stock interests alone are consuming
millions of dollars. A great deal of
building is going on. Many second
mortgages are being made and the mort
gages held by eastern firms paid off with
home loans. This is said to be the secret
of much of the loans that are being
made." Louisville Courier-Journal.
It can be stated with absolute cer
tainty that the Platte river canal scheme
is settled. The canal will be built, and
dirt will be flying in its construction
early in 1902, whatever may be the out
come of the consolidation project.
According to those best informed about
the entire situation, it is a ten to one
shot that the entire proposition will go
through, but the canal part of it is no
longer in the list of uncertainties. The
positive assertion of one of the eastern
men of millions, was "we will build it
that is settled." Lincoln Journal.
The suggestion that McKinley's pic
tures appear on the two-cent postage
stamp is not to be carried into effect, at
least not yet, but it has been decided to
put his portrait on ten dollar bills. It
is a fact that during his administration
more ten-dollar bills have been scattered
throughout the country than during a
like period under any other president or
under any other ruler of any other
country and it ia fitting that he should
be commemorated in this manner. Fre

Jeakins at Cadiz, Ohio.
Since E. H. Jenkins and party have
reached Cadiz, Harrison county, Ohio,
we get the same number of letters as
before, but the time seems to be taken
up mainly with visiting relatives, feast
ing, music, etc., so that few scraps of
general news reach us from "the little
city set among the bills in eastern Ohio,
The corner-atone of the new court
house there was laid in 1893, and the
structure completed October 1, 1895. It
has twenty-four large roomB, is three
stories high, and 100x100 feet on the
ground. The cupola is 112 feet from the
ground and has in it a fine town clock.
TtJwildiptyet S100.000. with about
32,O0u aaueu Tor furniture. However,
it is lacking in one respect, as it has no
vaults for records, although they think
it practically fire-proof. We saw in the
recorder's office deeds that were recorded
as early as 181G. We are told that this
is about the most up-to-date county
court house in the state of Ohio, and the
people here are proud of it.
Sweet corn sells at 10c a dozen; pota
toes $1.25, poor crop; peaches 50c a
bushel, and all good housewives are stir
ring peach butter in their brass kettles;
plums are selling for $1 per bushel, but
they are fine Damson's; tomutoes are
worth 50c per bushel and plentiful;
apples 75c, but not a good crop. Corn is
selling at retail at about G5c and as they
have no hogs or cattle to sell there is no
market Wool is still a chief feature,
and there are a number of parties here
who do nothing but buy wool. Some of
them handle from four to five hundred
thousand pounds per year. It all comes
from farmers; washed, and sacked in
large sacks.
New dwelling houses here, as a rule,
are larger than at Columbus. The foun
dations are of stone and the roofs most
ly of slate. Groceries, clothing, etc., is
about equal in price to Colnmbns, but
beef-steak is 18c a pound, and ham 22c.
The Cadiz fair is noted in this part of
the world the third of the three being
the great day of the exhibit By noon
there were at least 5,000 people at the
grounds and 1,000 horses in single and
double rigs, many of them coming twen
ty miles, some from Wheeling and other
towns as far away. Many people came
for the races alone, some of which were
good, pacers and trotters making the
mile in 225.
Friday morning, October 4, in the
Adams neighborhood on the clear fork
of Stillwater about six miles from Cadiz,
in company with Barclay Welch aud J.
C. Moore, I saw an oil well "shot" The
usual charge is 80 quarts of glycerine,
but in this one they put 120 quarts,
enough to blow the city of Columbus
into kingdom come if it were exploded
on top of the ground, but at the bottom
of an oil well 1253 feet deep it does not
make much of a report, but sends gas,
oil, dirt and small stones over the top of
the derrick to a height of 120 feet above
ground, and it is a grand sight The
glycerine is put down in tin tubes. I
was at the foot of the derrick when they
were charging the tubes, to see what
the stuff looked like, and did not know
what minute I might be blown to frag
ments, over the hills. The glycerine
looks very much like thin honey of a
lightish color. The oil is found under
the stratum of Berea rock, which under
lies this whole country. The well we
saw shot ia the fourth one in the field,
and they are pumping from ten to twelve
barrels per day from each and the oil is
worth now around $130 per barrel and
is taken right from the well by the
Standard Oil company through pipes to
Pittsburg. I am told the company pipe
the oil clear from here to Philadelphia
and in fact this whole region is covered
with gas pipe, for either gas or oil. At
the wells are large wooden tanks holding
about 100 barrels of oil When full, a
company man ia sent who gives receipt
for amoant to owner and the oil is let

away. So you see that a field of twelve
or fifteen wells that are all pumped by
one engine and time, say ten barrels
each, run into money.

The republicans of Polk county have
nominated Arthur A. Stull for county
judge. He is a young man of twenty
six, born in Polk county, a graduate of
Doane college, Crete, and later taking a
law course at the State University law
school, and is admitted to the bar. The
Osceola record further says of him that
he is a young man of clean habits and
rare ability, and would make an ideal
judge. Another of their candidates,
also, is well known to many Journal
readers Robert Kummer, a surveyor by
profession, a resident of Island precinct
for many years, a man splendidly
equipped for the office of surveyor.

C. K. Daviea returned Saturday
from Newton, Iowa, where he had been
in attendance at cattle sales of E. D.
Donahey and F. F. Pailor. The former
had sixty head, whi?h brought an av
erage of $650, and some of the cows as
high as $1,475. Mr. Failor's forty head
brought an average o' $250, and some
individuals $1,000, among these being
the mate to a bull owned here by Mr.
Davies. Failor's sales were mostly cattle
of his own raising, and the amount
realized was clear profit. One imported
yearling heifer disposed of at the sale
brought him a profit of $320. Two im
ported bulls sold for $3,000. Mr. Davies
reports Col. Woods of Lincoln, Nebras

Long evenings are here agaiu and nat

are welcomed by the whole family.
The Twentieth Century Farmer is out
of the rut in which most agricultural
papers travel. This is true particularly
of the splendid illustrations from photo
graphs taken by their own artists and
nnecial articles by the beta kunirn and
most practical men in every branch of
agriculture, such as N. J. Harris, secre
tary of the Iowa Seed Corn Breeders'
association; H. W.Campbell, the author

answer all questions relating to live
stock matters.
This is a weekly agricultural family
paper, in which the farmer's wife is par
ticularly interested on account of the
pages devoted to her particular interests.
In fact, there is no paper published
either in the east or west that meets so
well the wants of the western farmers
and stock raisers and their families.

A Big Lot for the Money.
A newspaper every Tuesday and every
Friday of each week from now until
January 1, 1903, together with the West
ern Poultry News a whole year, and all
for a dollar, is what is offered by the
Semi-Weekly State Journal, published
at Lincoln. It's the biggest bunch of
good reading matter ever offered by this
great state paper, and the prediction is
made that it will result in introducing
the State Journal to thousands of new
homes. The Journal is a newspaper giv
ing its readers all the telegraphic news
of the world, interesting special corres
pondence from Washington about Ne

will be mailed from now until January
1, 1902, for only twenty-five cents. This
will give yon a paper every Tuesday and
Friday and will be almost as good as a
daily. It will give you all the markets
which just now is a valuable feature,
worth to every farmer many times the
cost of the paper. The Journal is print
ed at the state capital and is more of a
state paper than any of its competitors.
It prints the news of the world fresh
from special wires in its own office and
prints it twice a week, while it is fresh
and doesn't charge you any more for it
than does the old-fashioned weekly.
Send yonr quarter to The State Journal,
