Keep Growing and Pas , tures Are Green, with ' Plenty of Rain OUT OF THE WAY OF FROST Nebrjk crop ' reporti, issued by the railroad, and having to do with condittoni up to the end of last weeW, are out and all indicate a most flat tering condition everywhere with the exception of imall area in the cen tral part of the southern portion of the ta.te. This area is not to exceed seventy-five miles east and west along the Kansas line and extending up into Nebraska twenty to twenty-five miles. The trouble in the area referred to is due to lack of rain. There the corn crop, while not totally destroyed, ha, been materially injured and will prob ably not make to exceed half a crop. However, in thil erea the small grain crop wa, the best ever known, having matured and been harvested in just about perfect condition. Elsewhere in the state, according to the weekly reports to the railroads, there has been an abundance of pre cipitation, keeping the crops growing and the pastures green. Out of Way of Froiti. All over the state, with the excep tion of the extreme northwestern por tion, corn is practically out ot tne wav of frosts and very heavy, in many localities being better than nor mally. The stand i good and even and all through the central portions it is asserted that farmers are talking thirty and forty, and some of them as much as lift v. bushels ner acre. Plowing for next season's crop of winter wneai is wen aiong ana u is estimated that in a good many coun ties of the central and southern sec tions this work is SO per cent com pleted, i More Winter Wheat Acreage. Some seeding has been done and an estimate made places the seeding at the end of this week at 25 per cent. Everything point, to a largely in creased acreage of winter wheat for next year. , The potato crop that six weeks ago gave promise of being short now has every indication of being as large, if not larger, than in former years, This is particularly true of the northern part of the state, the great potato raising section. Farmers out In the state are re ceiving unusually good prices for their potatoes now, the spuds fetching 75 cents to 80 cents per bushel at the stations. Digging for winter ha, not commenced . and, the potatoes being sold now are ot ibe early varieties, Rev.Mr.Kerr Preaches After Long Absence Rev. David Kerr, president of Belle- vue college and former president of the ' Third - Presbyterian church, preached in the same church Sunday evening atter an aDsence ot twenty six years. The church was crowded by old friends of Rev. Mr. Kerr, who vere keen to hear him preach again. Formerly, pastor of the South west Presbyterian church, Rev. Mr. Kerr gave up hii duties in 1889 to . become ' president of Bellevue college. He resigned the presidency in 1904, return ing' recently after an absence of twelve years, from the college and twenty-six years from the church. , Has No Fish Story but Tells Good One, Anyway R. C. Hoyt, clerk of the United States court, arrived home this morn ing from a month's vacation spent in Montana and the Pacific northwest with Mrs. Hoyt. "I have no fih stories to tell," said Mr. Hoyt with great modesty and supreme self-effacement. ' Having said this he immediately proceeded to - make ths following statement: "At Arlee we went out fishing ev ery single aay ior nearly a montn in the jocko river, And oh, you ought to have seen the trout we caught, We'd take 'em in and cook 'em and eat all we could, but we had to throw away the greater part of them. It seemed a shame. Beautiful speckled trout they were, and fine tasting. We just kept pulling 'em out, but there was sport in it because they're a game fish. But we certainly did catch "em." Having thus proved that he had no fish stories to tell, Mr. Hoyt stated that the Jocko river flows through the Flathead' Indian reservation, which is not the reservation from which all the "flatheads" come. Mr. and Mrs. Hovt nrorirlrl Arlee to Vancouver and returned by way oi Canada, scheduling their re turn trip one day in advance of what they intended through fear of a rail road strike. , .

Woman Painfully Injured In Motor Truck Accident , Severe abrasions about the body and internal injuries were suffered by Miss Birdie McRoy, 2465 South Twentieth street, when she was struck by a motor truck of the Mc Donald Plumbing company. The ac cident occurred at Eighteenth and Cuming street,. The driver of the truck took Mis, McRoy to her home. RAILROAD TRAINS RON ONSCHEDULE Business Goei On Just as if Nation-Wide Strike Had Not Been Threatened. FREIGHT MOVEMENT LIGHT Railroad trains, both passenger and freight, are running on regular sched ules, and iq their movements there is nothing to indicate that last week there was even an intimation of a nation-wide strike. Passenger trains do ing a local business are carrying many people, but the through trains are practically empty, everything indi cating that the long distance travelers who were away from destinations have hurried back, and those , going away, have not started. ' Local trains, especially those mov ing toward the larger cities and to warl Lincoln, are crowded. The Burlington train out of Omaha at 9:15 o'clock in the morning had 250 pas sengers for Lincoln, going to the state fair. , What was true of this traia was equally true of all trains running into Lincoln. Little Freight Moves. While freight trains were run on regular schedules, they were all light. There was little freight moving. Thai going to the country had been sent out last week in anticipation of the strike, and at the country stations but little stuff had been loaded out since the strike was declared off. During the coming week railroad men, how- ever, anticipate a ncavy run ui uusi ness, especially in the handling of live stock and grain. Neither jobbers nor railroad of ficials anticipate that there will be any heavy movement of merchandise during the next ten days, or two weeks. Thev assert that the country merchants, in anticipation of the strike, stocked ud heavier than ever before, and that they will not do very much buying until their ineives begin to grow empty. Buys Heavily. An example of how the country merchants bought is illustrated by the buying of one of the merchants of Gretna.- Although he lives right in the heart of one of the best agricul tural sections in the state, he reached the conclusion that if the strike went on and continued for any length of time, he might be short of flour. One day last week he came to Omaha and bought 250 sacks of flour, this order being about ten times as large as he usually placed. Saturday he was back in the city to buy 500 sacks more, giv ing as a reason thauhe did not want to be caught with a short supply on hand, - As to lust how the new law with reference to hours and pay of train men is going to work out, the rail road men are not saying a word They assert that Its provisions are new and untried and that an expression, now would be absolutely worthless. ' On the other hand, while the train men are not talking to any extent, on the face of it they express the opinion that the law will prove bene ficiai to their, interests. ; . : A TRAFFIC MOVING NORMALLY Railroads Begin Demobilising Strike breaker Forces.
