Embryo Soldiers Pour Into Fort

Work on the Parade
Grounds.

!
Recruits arc still pouring into Fort
Crook. These are put into the re-
cruit company there at first and later
assigned to fill vacant places in other
companies. Tuesday fourteen men
came in from York, Neb., Jo join the
Fourth. Though fheir uniforms have
not been given them, they went right
to work and were soon drilling hard
on the parade ground. The parade
ground is a picturesque scene these
days with its squads of men marching
and maneuvering.
Most of the companies are well
trained by now and the friends who
come out from the city never seem
to tire of watching them. These spec
tators begin to appear early in the
day and often there is a large group
of them lining the parade ground.
One Man Handles Case
Tractor and Harvestor
One man sitting on a harvester can
successfully operate the harvester and
the Case Oil tractor pulling the har
vester. This is a saving of man
power toward which many of the trac
tors would like to work. Just as a
man used to sit on a harvester and
crack" the whip over his mules, so that
man can today sit on his harvester,
not to crack the whip, but to operate
the throttle and the stearing apparatus
of the Case. Every movement of the
tractor and the harvester is con
trolled by the Jevers which are readily
within reach of the operator.
This Case tractor also features a
short turning capacity which enables
the man to cut all the grain instead
of leaving come uncut at the corners.
By means of a unique hitch attach
ment, the guiding is accomplished
automatically, so that the machine
drawn behind follows properly at all
times. The J, I, Case people' are
making a very prominent exhibit at
. the Frerront tractor show.
Restaurant Man Seeks to
Feed Garbage to Own Hogs
John W. Welch, proprietor of a
string of restaurants, has filed injunc
tion proceedings in district court
against the city of Omaha and Carl
Sorensen seeking to restrain them
from interfering with his places in the
' disposal of their own garbage.
He tays the garbage from his five
restaurants is worth $12,000 a year to
him for his hog ranch near Omaha.
The city council passed a resolution
June 2$ providing for the removal of
rarbage tinder the contract system.
The city was divided into nineteen
district The Welch restaurants are
in the First, Second and Third dis
tricts. Sorensen according to the restaur
ant owner, made a bid for the garbage
from these three districts and agreed
ta pay $538.38 a month for the priv
ilege. Mr. Welch alleges the whole
scheme of the city is for the purpose
o( 'selling the garbage for a large sum
of money and not for the purpose of
preserving the health of the inhabit
ants. Camp No. 120, M. W. A.,

Plowing Record is Made
At Big Fremdnt Show
So bad were conditions Tuesday
that the committee in charge 'of the
Fremont Tractor demonstration de
cided it would be impossible to con
duct plowing exhibitions.
The one tractor on the grounds
that braved the gumbo mud was the
Cleveland. Undaunted by the wet, this
machine successfully plowed a large
stretch of land eighty rods in length,
hauling two fourteen-inch plows.
Its track enabled it to plow at
an average speed of three miles
an hour. A test furrow was made
while the machine traveled at a rate
of well over four miles to the hour.
Not only was the plowing quickly
and cleanly done, but it was deep
plowing, the land being turned up to
an average depth of eight inches. The
test was exceedingly gratifying to the
rriakers of the Cleveland, for it dem
onstrated that a tractor properly, de
signed and constructed can be worked
under the most adverse circum
stances. Which means that the farmer
who uses such a tractor can work
every day, irrespective of the elements.
and when he swore out a search war
rant to aid in the locating of the
liquor, armed with this, the police
Tuesday found five bottles of stuff in
the basement of a house a few doors
away. It is charged that a woman,
who has not yet been arrested, passed
the liquor out of the Ritchie base
men to the men, and that they planted
it in the house where it was found.
Paving Contractors Sue
, County Board on Contracts
Baurer & Donald, paving contrac
tors, have filed suit for injunction in
district court against the county board
and the W. E. Callahan Construction
company in an attempt to prevent
them from carrying out a contract for
one mile of paving let recently. They
also ask the court to compel the coun
ty to award the contract for resur
facing and repairing a five-mile stretch
of the Dodge street road, which they
say they are entitled to by virtue of
being the lowest bidders. It is the out
growth of a paving row between
Bauer & Donald and the Callahan
company.

The Car of the American' People, Was Designed
and Built by the Greatest French Engineers
WHEN the French designers were given an order to
build a car for the great American people to cost
under a thousand dollars and to have great power
and greater mileage to a gallon of gasoline than any car
in its class, great durability and comfort, they designed v
and built the Briscoe, which up until now is regarded as
the most wonderful production m its class of motor cars.
The Briscoe has now twelve large factories controlled
by the most progressive and strongest business men f inan- '
cially in the country. '
t ' Briscoe is made to sell for $725, and has met every re
quirement of American people who are looking for the .
best car built for the money. Briscoe is exceptionally
easy riding full elliptic springs, ample leg room, is so
simple in operation that it has become a great women's
favorite and has made more mileage on a gallon of gaso- ' . ,
line of any car offered the people today.;
. We; have a splendid agency proposition and1 some
