Mohboe, Feb. 2, 04.
Ed. Joitbkal: Reading in. your last
week's issue an item to the effect that
the Columbus Telegram, Platte Center
Signal, Humphrey Democrat and the
Lindsay Post were let the county print
ing and each is to receive one-fourth the
legal rate, and the Columbus Biene will
also be given an extra one-fourth legal
rate for printing the proceedings, I would
like to ask this question: Have the
supervisors, who are elected to represent
all the people, the right to vote money
out of the peoples' pocket by paying for
the county printing a sum more than the
law allowa? We all know that taxes in
this county are already high enough
without raising them to a higher notch
for no other reason that I can see than
to throw crumbs, few though they be, to
political party favorites.
There is no doubt in my mind that
Platte county could save money by doing
as other counties do allowing all the
newspapers of the county a chance to
bid on the work to be done, thus secur
ing their work for a half or two-thirds
legal rate instead of having to pay a full
rate plus one-fourth. What is a super
visor for anyway if not to protect the
peoples' interests?
Yours for justice,
J.A.S.

The Fremont Tribune recently pub
lished an article written by the secretary
of the Commercial club concerning the
future development of that town, in
which he says, in speaking of the canal
project: "The Platte below the Loup
and the Loup itself are capable of the
development of several auch power
plants, and the demonstration of the one
at Fremont will lead at no distant date
to the construction of another or others,
and Fremont will be very central to
them all. There will be power enough
generated to supply amply Omaha, Lin
coln and Columbus, and leave plenty for
Fremont. Each such different water
power with its reservoirs will be a help
to the other, conserving and making
more constant the flow of water to all.
There will be developed here from Co
Iambus to Omaha and from Fremont to
Lincoln a Nebraska manufacturing dis
trict like that in southeastern Wiscon
sin. Oar nearness to Omaha will then,
aa a manufacturing center, be no handi
cap to as but rather a help, affording
additional nearby distributing facilities
for our products, as in the case of Bock
ford, Racine, and other cities in their
relation to Chicago."

The program of the farmers' institute
held in Maennerchor hall here Friday
and Saturday of laat week was carried
out in full aa printed in last week's
Jouknai The average attendance dur
ing all the meetings was about one hun
dred, and on Saturday afternoon there
was standing room only. Thia ahows a
remarkable growth of interest in this
work since last year, when scarcely
twenty attended the meetings.
& M. Le welling of Beaver City, Neb.,
was the first on the program and he
spoke on the subject "Economic Pork
Production." He stated that no farm
product was more profitable than hogs
and it more attention to breeding and
feeding is taken the profit will be made
still greater. With proper care hogs can
be marketed in from eight months to a
year. The greatest profit ia in the quick
est market Illustrations of the original
wild hog and the modern highly bred
Berkshire hog were compared and con
trasted. His advios to hog raisers is to
get the very best stock to begin with,
then breed these toward the ideal which
they have in view. Long and mature
stock will raise larger litters than snort
hogs. Both sex should be alike in size,
as like begets like, and the poor qualities
in one parent are sure to leave a trace in
the offspring. In buying breeding stock
select those with good feet aad legs, the
frame should be capable of carrying a
large amount of flesh. The back ahould
be etraight or elightly arched and the
heart and langa ahould have ample
room. The shape ot the ribs ahould not
be overlooked; they ahould be well
sprung, making the back appear flat or
even hollow in the middle. This one
quality may save a person many dollars
in case cholera cornea into the neighbor
hood aa they are nearly always in a
marketable condition and can be turned
into money at aay time.
"Priaciples aad Practices ot Feeding"
discussed byH.P. Miller, ot Ohio, was
interesting and profitable to all who
heard him.
In the evening of Friday, Mr. Lewell
ing spoke on the "Care and Management
ot Poultry" and Mr. Miller on "Factors
in Soil Fortuity." These talks were
enjoyed by a aamber from the city as
well aa from the couatry. Alfalfa cul
ture which is now interesting the farm
era ia this vicinity was the subject of
Mr. LeweUiaga talk Saturday morning.
F. G. Ferguson, ot Beaver Crossing, set
forth someot his ideas in raising and
potatoes, learned from his
der variety. Mark Linsey, second high

The following, taken from the Sand
point (Idaho) News, is ot much interest
to the friends of' Mr. Deffenbach, who
was a former Platte county boy. Mm.
Deffenbach was formerly Mies Wise and
was here a few weeks this winter, called
home by the death ot her mother. Mm.
Mary Wise:
"Byron a Deffenbach ot the firm ot
the Northern Mercantile company, and
former assistant postmaster at Spokane,
has decided to accept an advantageous
offer from the postofHoe department and
will leave the middle of February for
Manila, where he .will become an assist
ant to C. M,Cattermole, director of
posts for the Philippines.
Mr. Deffenbach had been for many
yean connected with the postofBce rail
way mail servioe before he wss assistant
postmaster at Spokane, a position which
he resigned in March last to embark in
the mercantile business in Sandpoint.
Mr. Deffenbach and Mr.Cattermolewere
in the railway mail service together and
sines Mr. Cattermoto has reached hu
high position he has been active in his
endeavors to secure Mr. Deffenbach's
aaristanoe. Several weeks ago Mr. Deff
enbach was communicated with by the
department and an offer msde him to go
into the Philippine servioe, but this offer
was declined, only to be met with another
one and with a raise to the salary offered.
Finally this week Mr. Deffenbach de
cided to comply with the terms granted
by the postofBce department and wired
his acceptance of the position. His com
pensation will include his fare and board
from the time he leaves Sandpoint until
he arrives at Manila. Mr. Deffenbach
expects to leave his family here for a
month after his departure, at the expira
tion of which time they will follow him
to his new post ot duty.
Mr. Deffenbach, since heading the
company which last spring bought the
mercantile business ot Frank Ewiagand
changed the name ot the business to the
Northern Mercaatile company, has made
a big success ot his business aad it is
with feelings of regret that ho leaves
Sandpoint Said he when diecuesisg his
new position and the fact that it takes
him from a field of duty and oppor
tunity in Sandpoint, 'I believe Sandpoint
is a good town to grow apjwith aad I do
not like to leave it However, I am not
going to give up my connections entire
ly, for I shall continue to be one of the
firm and shall leave my stock in the com
pany undistarbed. If I find that the
climate or other conditions in- the Phil
ippines are auch that I cannot live ad
vantageously there I will return to
Sandpoint and take charge of the busi
ness again; I feel, however, that the
opportunity which presents itself is one
which I cannot overlook.'
Mr. Deffeabach was assistant postmas
ter of Spokane for four yearn aad was
immediately succeeded ia his position
by Mayor Boyd, who resigned that nost
sfter a few weeks' service apon his elec
tion 10 toe mayoralty.
The appointmeotcomes as a fine testi
monial to the high esteem in which Mr.
Deffenbach is held by the postofBce department"

THE NECESSARY MAGAZINE
IN THE PRESIDENTIAL YEAR.
The Review of Reviews is often called a
necessity, in recognition of its usefulness in keeping
readers "up with the times."
In Presidential election years the REVIEW
OF REVIEWS is more than ever "the necessary
magazine." Everybody wants to be truly and quickly
informed about this or that public question that has
forged to the front ; to know about the new candi
dates and personal factors in politics, to have a com
plete picture at hand of the current movement of
history.
