During the next week Omaha representa
tives wilt bo bard al work In an effort to
eccuro another exposition year convention for
this city , The prlzo that awaits pluckln-R
Is the national encampment of the Sons of
Veterans , which U held this year In In
dianapolis on Thursday , Friday and Satur
day , If this should ho secured , It will be
ono of the biggest gatherings on next year's
schedule.
Senator John M. Thurston Is expected to do
the biggest part of tlio work In securing the
encampment. Ho Is Nebraska's delegate to
this year's assemblage. Ho will bo asslatci
in the xvork by A. H. Hawltzcr , Frank 3
Coatcs andV. . It. Davis , and possibly a
conplo moro men from this city. Senator
Thurston Is now In Washington , but the
other thrco are In Omaha , and will leave for
Indianapolis on next Monday evening.
There Is a fair chance that tb convention
will bo captured , as the city's representatives
go with a pockntful of Inducements. The }
will agree to defray all the actual expenses
of the convention , will provide u suitable
Jiall for the meetings , and will offer as on *
camprnent grounds the beautiful old fort
grounds. The Department of War recent ! ;
allowed thcso grounds to bo used for the pur
pose. The visitors will also bo offered plcntj
of entertainment during their visit If they
come to this city.
The encampment would probably bring
omnwhcro between 2,500 and 3,000 visitors
to Omaha during the week thnt It Is In
tension' . They would represent all parts of
the country. They would Include a con-
llderable number of uniformed men and
would consequently furnish an attraction to
other visitors during their stay. They could
bo amply accommodated , for the fort grounds
ro large enough to give moro than the nec
essary spice for the tents.
The Indianapolis people have made con-
Iderablo arrangements to entertain the vis
itors to the encampment during the coining
m-ek. Quito an attractive program has heea
gotten up. The biggest part of the time
will bo devoted to pleasure , as It Is said that
( hero Is but llttlo business to bo traniacted.

Soil Culture. Is In tlio city , after a
trip through the farm lands of North Dakota

sajfi ho never saw the western country look
GO well from an agricultural standpoint. In
every transmleeourl state , according to his

largo crops of good quality are unusually
bright.
Prof. Milton. Whitney of the Agricultural
department at Washington , accompanied Mr.

have epent some tlmo in looking over the
western farming country with Mr. Campbell.
They have seen the experimental farms on
the Burlington , conducted along the lines
of the Campbell system of soil culture , and
are of the belief that farming on scientific
principles Is a profitable thing. One of the
: wo Russians , Serge Gardenle , has made ar-
rnagcments to Introduce the system quite
