ral time a week." said the vls'tor, and
my .brother, who lives near by, baa been
patching tliat bridge until It will no longer
stand patching. The board can remove the
bridge entirely If a drain pipe Is placed In
the bottom of the gully and a small fill la
made. There la really no necessity for a
bridge there at all."
Commissioner Itofeldt questioned the
woman as to the location and when this
was ascertained It was decided to have the
county engineer attend to the repairing or
removal of the biidge at once. '
Beginning with June 30, the Omaha Hod
and Gun club will go on the miscellaneous
salary lUt of the county for $23 per month
until further orders. This Is by way of con
tribution toward paying the salary of a
man to protect the Hall and game of the
county.
Will Give One Hundred.
The board passed a resolution that If the
Omaha Field club will erect a substantial
gate at the entrance to its grounds at the
county poor farm the county will contribute
$100 toward the coat. The club wants the
county to stand all the cost, about $175, and
It Is understood will not accept the odor
embodied In the resolution.
A report from the finance committee was
to the effect that, after an examination of
the report of, the cost of maintaining the
office of the county engineer for the last
three years, the committee found that the
orders of the board for special work were
responsible for the large Increase In cost.
Specifically, the engineer's office was or
dered to make a railroad survey and a
topographical survey. Outside of this tho
committee said Mr. Edqulst Is to be compli
mented on the economical conduct of his
office, he having kept the expense below
what it was for the preceding three year.
The county Judge was authorised, to tarn
over to the treasurer certain money In his
hands, amounting to $95, which has been
claimed by former sheriffs, but never paid.
The money will await the further disposi
tion of the board.
County Treasurer Fink was authorized to
use hi own discretion In the apportionment
or certain funds of the county now In his
hinds and unappropriated.
The county clerk was authorized to ad
vertise for bids for building any pile bridges
that may be ordered by the board during
the coming year. The present contractor
is John W. Towle,' and hi contract expire
within a month or two.

County Treasurer Oett Anxioui About
Delay in Scavenger Tax Matters.
THINKS ANOTHER JUDGE IS NEEDED
Tronp Doing- AH Ha Can, bat Fink
Says Volume of Work
1 Too Great (or
One.'
County Treasurer Fink is getUng a bit
anxious concerning the delay In getting Ju
dicial action on delinquent property under
the scavenger tax law. There are at pres
ent pending 3,285 case In which answer
have been made and as Judge Troup alone
is hearing this class of cases the progress
made Is necessarily slow. For the next
sale, which wlU begin August 1, there will
be only 250 to 3u pieces on the list to be
advertised.
"I do not think the city legal department,
which handles the scavenger tax cases, or
Judge Troup, who tries them, are at all to
blame," said Mr. Fink. "There are so many
case that the detail work, when handled
with the regular business of the city at
torney's office and of Judge Troup's court,
la enormous. If some remedy I not ap
plied, however, it can readily be seen that
tb disposal of all the case now pending
will require a number of year. I do not
know whether It 1 feasible or not, but If
possible my idea would be to hire extra
legal talent and have more than one Judge
at work on the scavenger tax cases; other
le very alow progress must be the rule.
AVe ought to be able to clear up this work
Just as fast as the law will allow, but
under the present plan, work as hard aa
they will on tax cases between the dis
charge of their ether duties, neither the
city attorney or Judge Troup can do more
than they are doing to facilitate It."
NEBRASKA IN ITS PRIME
State's Condition and Prospeets Never
Were Better, day Fall
City Man.
George W. Spraglns, representing the
Peorless Stock Remedy company of Falls
City, Neb., Is stopping at the Murray. lie
la one of Nebraska's big, healthy, hustling
men, so full of enthusiasm for it inter
ests that, when interviewed, he simply
bubbled all over the map. lie declares that
Nebraska's prospects were never so bright
and never before attracted so many eastern
capitalists. He says the era of the fron
tiersman Is Just past and that of steady
growth Is in full swing. He cites the time
when Illinois dragged through Just what
Nebraska experienced in the early '80s.
His most glowing tribute was given to
Custer county.
"Investments there offer three time the
Inducement that Iowa can offer," said he.
"Last Sunday I stood In a wheat field,
where the waving beads of the grain
touched my outstretched arms, Just Ave
feet all over the field. Land in Richardson
county last year yielded an average of
$106 per capita, while Custer rolled up $247.
The newness of the county account for the
fact that land In Custer 1 selling for $
per acre, wheu It is worth $75 In Richard
son." As to his own business, he say condi
tion are vastly Improving among tb
stockmen of the state. Farmer are be
ginning to realize that correct sanitation
Is the great thing in the production of
stock, especially of hogs.
"No longer is a hog to be taken for the
typo of all that Is dirty and unclean," he
says. "Cholera can be prevented entirely.
Eighty-seven per cent of the so-called chol
era Is nothing but worms and colds among
the swine. A well-conditioned hog now
adays must have certain medicines admin
istered In his food to offset the forcing
process of feeding and the germs and para
sites that fatten so handily upon lilm. He
should have a movable platform to feed
from, one that can be waah'ed and dragged
bout to prevent the accumulation of germ
producing filth underneath. For the same
reason the hog lot should have no perma
nent buildings at all. Moreover, the hog
should be washed in a medicated dip to re
move the scurf from liis tilde.
"The output of hogs will be greater this
year than last."
