"McShano's brldgo bill Is our only hope , "
dcclnrcd a lending real cstato man yester
day while dlscusslngtho action of the motor
compnny nt the annual meeting hold Tues
day nfternoon They didn't oven consider
the question nf n llve-conl faro , to say noth
ing of acting on It , A petition was presented
asking that u reduced faro bo granted pupils
of the public schools , anil It wns very
stiongly backed , The company decided that
nil children under twelve years of ngo could
ho carried nt hull the prevailing rates This
was ostensibly grantinc It but It
virtually puvo the whole thing n.
black ojo , form Just this reasoni
You sec , the half faro Was desired for chil
dren over that age.as it Is principally need ed
for these who attend the high school ,
Children under that ngo attend the ward
school ) nnd liavo only a short dlstanco to go ,
but pupils from all parts of the city attend
the high school nnd It is to these tint the
reduction would bo of ho no lit It would bo
especially desirable in stormy weather , but
tno action of the comtnny has ltlllod any
such plan If they had granted this con
cession It would huvo been money in their
pockets , as the cars huvo to run anway , and
it would moati Just so much oxtr.i travel
Hut thou , this notion was what might
lnvo been expected The company has
everything its own wny , nnd will not lot up
In any respect unless It Is compelled to do
so There is not the sllghlost show for an
other company to get iv right of way ever
the Union Pacific bridge , and , ns 1 said before
fore , the only rollof is lor McShano's bill to
go through Thnro Is no question but that a
reduced rate would pay both parties the
company and the publlc-aud a new com
pany would find it a paving Investment if
they could only get across the river If that
could only bo Bocurod , there uro dozens of
capitalists who would Jump at the chance
If this company would only establish n5-cant
faro thev couldn't begin to handle the busi
ness with their present oqulpmont They
would liavo to just double , their rolllngstock
nnd it would keep a flvo minutoservice busy
It would bo the making of the Bluffs , and I
dent ' see why the cltlznns do not get to
gether und take some concerted action ubout
the mutter A meetinc wns held sevorul
weeks ago with this object in view , and the
chairman was instructed to appoint a com
mlttoo to act in conjunction with the council '
in oxpresslng to the motor company the sen
timent of the business men of the city , but
the committee was never appointed , and that
was ttio end of it The spasm worked off
and the 10 cent fare still holds good If the
real estate exuhango wants to do something
that will help tha Bluffs more than anything
else that can possibly bo done , hero IS a
chance lor it to spreul itself Ii the object
enn be accomplished it will bo the biggest
thing for the city that was ever brought
about The directors of the motor company
will listen to icnsnn , and if the matter is
only presented in its proper llcht mid with
the proper backing I bcllove it would go
through , but if this is not done wo may as
well sit down and wait for another bridge "

Etter & Pierce , who are not now connected

A DnniSf-rous Tower
Mayor Kobror has notified the eiectrlo light
company that the tower ut the coraor of
Fifth uvcnuo and Tncnty.flrst street is In a
dangerous condition Too company main
tains that the city is responsible for It , This
Is ouo of the now towers that was erected
last month , and is located on property that
lias not been raised to grade , The tower
was ordered Bet at the permanent grade
This leaves the guy pasts almost wholly out
of the ground , and lu the recent winds the
tower and posts have rocked considerably
T lip company insists that all would bo M
stable as could bo desired If the necessary
grading was done , nnd hold that this Is the
work of the city Unless the matter is attended -
tended to atonco , there Is every reason to
fear that the tower will turablo over In n
strong wind Iho otnployosof the electric
llsht company refuse to climb the tower to
carbon the lights on windy days , fearing
that the structure will collapse As the
tower Is 150 foot high , and Is located on a
street where there Is considerable travel , Its
present condition is a constant menace to llto
nnd property The guy posts have been
temporarily braced , but the support thus af
forded Is not what It should bo , The matter
should bo attended to without delay

Tlie Cause of BnIInsi
According to tlfo New York Medlcul
Record Dr Saymonuo claims to have
bacillus.ealled him bacillus
isolated a . by
lus crlnivorax , " which is the cause of
alopecia It is , he says found only on
the sculp of man , ether hirsute parts of
the body and also the fur of animals
bolng free from it The bacilli invade
the hair-follicles and nuiko the hairs
very brittle so that they breakolT to the
skin Then the roots themselves are
attacked If the micobos can be de
stroyed early In the aisoasotho vitality
of the hulra may bo preserved , but after
the follicles are invaded and all their
structures injured , tlio baldness is in
curable The following is Dr Say
monno's remedy to nrovont baldness :
Ton parts of crude cod-llvor oil , ton
parts of the oxprcssed jutco of onions ,
and five parts of mucilngo or the yolk
of an egg , nro thoroughly shaken to
gether and the mixture applied to the
scalp , and well rubbed in , once a week
This , ho assorts , will certainly bring
back tlio hair if the roots nro not
already destroyed The Record adds

Vnluo of Improved Breeds
The pvosont low price of beef bIiows
us the vnluo of improved breeds While
scrubs soils for less than it costs to raise
them , the high grades pay well The
recent market reports give some good
practical examples , bavs the Western
Agriculturalist Mr T. W. Harvey ,
Turlington , Neb , recently sold ninety
live high grade short horn augus and
west highland cattle at S. .2 ( ) , to go to
London alive They averaged 1080.
Breeders at Greencastlo , Ind , re
cently shipped thirty-llvo car loads of
high grade shorthorus to go to England
They averaged lliOU pounds and sold at
home for $4 to $ l.l5 ! per hundred , real
izing about 950,000.
R. li Wright , Mt Leonard , Mo ,
sold two car loads of grade shorthorns
at $5 , at homo , they topped the market
at Chicago at $5.70 , This is the last

Farmers who find the business profit
able ewe much of their success to the
good management of their wives , says
the Indianapolis News It is conceded
by ull that a farmer without 11 wife who
is a good homo mnnuger cannot expect
to niako money As a general thing
farmers wives are us skilful managers
as their husbands , and share almost
equally wjth thoni the burdens nud
privations of farm life A woman who
nas boon reared in the country finds
pleasure and health in overseeing the
dairy , the gat don , and the poultry yard ,
as well as looking after her household
duties Whore a farmer has such a
wife lie can devote hisontiro time to
his genorul farm work , and ut the end
of the year the profits will be well nigh
doubled
There are in Iidianaa great many
women who farm extensively nnd are us
skilled in the business as any of the
men These women have made money

county hns quito n number of women
who hnvo given farming much thought
and nro equipped to muko the business
a success Many of those Indies are
members of the county agricultural so
cieties , and their views nro always given
ns much weight ns these oxptossod by
the male members
Miss Ida Richardson , who was brought
up on a farm south of the city , believes
that successful nnd oujovablo fanning
depends largely upon the homo manage
ment by the wife She would have the
wife bo a helpmate to the husband in
all tilings ; not a slave to work , but a
woman who takes an interest in the af
fairs of the farm and manages the homo
so us to increase the husbands profits
She thinks the country homo is , or
should bo the ideal one
Keeping ; Apples
There are just a few things to remem
ber in order to keep apples They
should bo sorted closely and thoattompt
only bo made tqrtkoop the best , says
Farm and Fireside , t They should bo
packed in tight Jwtrrols and headed
up , " and should be stored where the
toinporaturo will Ve1 its nonr a2 = Fahr
enheit us practicable I have gener
ally found it best lev head tlio bnrrol up
nftor sorting the opplos , and thou to
pile the barrels up on the northerly
side of some buildilig'or in tlio shade of
trees , protcctod frauijraln until there
was much danger of ithulr freezing out

THE WAY TO GET TO THE LARGEST IMPLEMENT HOUSE IN THE WORLD

Southern Pacific railroad people to

A Impeding len
When feeding growing chicks they
should have all they can oat , while the
hens should only bo fed moderately , so
ns to compel thorn to scratch nnd c xor-
ciso , and thus keep in hotter laying
condition As it is sometimes neces
sary , however , says the Farm and Fire
side , to keep the hens and young stock
together , some plan must bo devised to
prevent tlio lions from eating the
food intended for the chicks
This may bo accomplished by
havlmg a coop about two feet wide and
four feet long , made of lath , closed on
the top with lath , albo , with openings
largo enough to admit the chicks , but
too Small to allow the lions to enter
Under this coop the food may bo placed
and tlio chicks enn then eat as often ns
they wish , but the hens must work
I'lin't Feed Too Much Corn
Corn is hooting food It is too con
centrated for moRt kinds of stock , and
even for hogs H often creates a fever
ish state of the system that requires a
good deal of water to cool down A hog
that is kept feverish from overloaded
stomach will not fatten , sa\s the Ne
braska Parmer It bhould have water
with the chill taken oir it with a little
fine middlings This will distend the
stomach and prevent constipation It
will nlso furnish the albuminoid food
necessary to make lean meat , in which
corn is dolicient If fattening hogs nro
given drink warm , and thus mixed with
wheat middlings , they will drink much
moro heartily than they will of cold
water alone , nnd be loss likely to got oil
their feed
Knistnc On is
Taking the average yield of oats and
counting the cost of growing and of get
ting them ready for market , there is
very little if any margin for profit
writes a correspondent of the Kansas
Fanner Yet they should in a majority
of cases bo made a part of the spring
crops , for tsvo roasous ono is to make
up a good rotation , and the ether is to
feed out My experience is that it does
not pay the average farmer to raise
oats 10 soil , but they can bo made prollt-
able to feed ; and oats , clover , wheat ,
grass and corn make up an adimrablo
rotation for the western farmer But
the oats grown should be used for feed
ing the stock nn the farm
The earlier the oats can bo sown in
the spring after the season opens , the
bettor they will withstand cold and wet
in the spring much better than they
will the heat and drouth in July The
quantity of seed should bo guagod by
the fertility of the soil , but it is always
best to use plenty of seed It is quite
an item to get the seed scattcrod as
evenly as pobsiblo over the surface
The broadcast sood-sowors will do this
bettor and faster than it can bo done by
hand The spring-tooth or the disc
tools to put in the oat crop , and the
work can bo done very rapidly , nnd in
the spring this is quito an item
Another good plan is to sow the seed
broaUcast , either by hand or with a
broadcast seeder , and then work Into
the soil with a cultivator , spring-tooth
or disc harrow , and then harrowing
down thoroughly If the land does not
harrow down readily into a good tilth ,
in a majority of eases it will pay to roll ,
and often this will bo quito an advan-
-tngo in harvesting and saving the crop
It is not necessary to stir the soil deep
for oats , neither is it necessary to cover
dcop ; but I have always found that it
paid to take considerable pains to har
row well after sowing the seed , so as tenet
not only cover well , but nlso to level
down the soil.I
By having the seed on hand nnd the
tools in a good condition , the work of
sowing enn be pushed along very rap
idly Taking all things into considera
tion , less work is required to put in the
oats than almost any ether crop , and
• they nro a crop that occupy the ground
only u short time , and If properly man
aged make a good food , nnd can bo fed
so that there is but little if any waste
On an average soil , two bushels of seed
is about the right quantity , decreasing
or increasing according tn the fertility

Cm Inr for Furniture
With care furniture may bo kept
looking nice for years , but without this
care it soon becomes dingy and shabby
A thorough cloaiisiag , once a month , ut
least , should bo given to upholstered
furniture that is in everyday use , says
an exchange Articles covered with
plush or any goods with a pile may bo
brushed with a bristle brush , but for
hair cloth a light switch works best ,
wiping off the surface afterward with a
damp cloth Wipe the woodwork with
a damp cloth , and if there are any
dents in it , it is said that the applica
tion of several thicknesses of wet blot
ting paper hold in place until dry by a
warm ilutiron will remove the dents ,
unless a very deep one , when several
applications may bo necessary When
the woodwork is dry , rub with warm
linseed oil and polibh with chamois
skin White spots may bo removed by
alcohol simply pressed on the spot by a
cloth that is not linty , and not rubbed ,
rubbing will take off the varnish A
llannol cloth moistened with kerosene
s good to rub the furniture with , nud
the disagreeable odor of the oil soon
disappears
