Sheridan county owns lhc dis
tinction of being the first county in
Nebraska to send a special train of
fannersto attend the meetings of
Organized Agriculture at Lincoln,
January 15 to 19, inclusive. The large
delegation (about 200) will be 'accom
panied by a band of eighteen pieces,
recruited from the towns of Hay
Springs, Rushville and Gordon. At
Norfolk the train will stop long
enough to take on a diner and obser
vation car, and frorn there will stop at
M the important towns till it reaches
Lincoln, from ten to twentv minutes
at each place. The train will leave
Sheridan county on fhe following
schedule, tonight: Hay Springs, 8:02
a. m.; Rushville, 8.25 p. m.; Gordon,
8:55 p. m.
When this project was broached by
the Sheridan County Farmers' associ
ation, even the railroad company was
skeptical about moving that number
of farmers ixpm one end of the state
to the other. But by united work of
the three totfns in the county it is
now an assured fact, as proved by the
certified check for $1,000 paid to the
railroad company for the special train.
Much of the credit for this excursion
is due to the efforts of J. 0. Apian,
the wide awake president of the Sheri
dan County Farmers' association, and
County Agent A, C. North, who have
taken a great interest in the idea. Im
mense benefit is anticipated from this
excursion, as it will not oftly bring
the farmers together, but will lead to
a broadening out of ideas for future
improvement W tiie farms of Sheridan
and other counties besides setting a
good precedent.. -
