CROP PROSPECTS MOST FLATTERING Crops Keep Growing and Pas- tures Are Green, with Plenty of Rain OUT OF THE WAY OF FROST Nebraska cfop reports, issued by | the railroads and having to do with | conditions up to the end of last week, {are out and all indicate a most flat- tering condition everywhere with the | exception of a small area in the cen- tral part of the southern portion of the state. 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, has been materially injured and will prob- ably not make to exceed half a crop. However, in this erea the small grain crop was 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 Frosts. All over the state, with the excep- tion of the extreme northwestern por- tion; corn is practically out of the way of frosts and very heavy, in many localities being better than nor- mally. The stand is 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 fifty, bushels per acre, Plowing for mext scason's crop of winter wheat is well along and it is estimated that in a good many coun- ties of the central and southern sec- tions this work is 50 per cent com- pleted. More Winter Wheat Acreage. Some seeding has been done and an estimate made places the sceding at the end of this week at 25 per cent. Evertything points to a llrfiely in- creased acreage of winter wheat for next year, The potato crop that six weeks ago gave promise of being short now has evcrf' 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 has not commenced _and, the potatoes being sold now are .of the 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 after an absence of twenty- six years. The church was crowded by old ftiends of Rev. Mr, Kerr, who ‘\ere keen to hear him preach again, Formerly pastor of the South- west Presbyterian church, Rev. Mr,: Kerr gave up his duties in 1889' to become %elident of Bellevue . college. e - 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 fish stories to tell,” safd Mr. Hoyt with great modesty and supreme self-effacement, > aving said this he Immediately proceeded to make the following statement: “At Arlee we went out fishing ev- ery single day for nearly a month 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 [lockn river flows through the Flathead' Indian reservation, which is not the reservation from which all the “flatheads” come, Mr. and Mrs. Hoyt proceeded from Arlee to Vancouver and returned by way of Canada, scheduling their re- turn trip one day in advance of what they intended through fear of a rail- road strike, Pioneer Conductor, Here For Sixty Years, is Dead A. E. Thomas, for sixty years a resident of Omaha and, one of the pioneer conductors on the Union Pa- cific, died Sunday morning at the home of his daughter, Mrs. C.

The ac- cident occurred at Eighteenth and Cuming streets. The driver of the truck took Miss McRoy to her home. RAILROAD TRAINS RUN ON SCHEDULE Business (loes 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 in their movements there is nothing to indicate that last week there was even an intimation of a na- tion-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 trom destinations have hurried back, and those going away, have not started, Local trains, especially those mov- ing toward the larger cities and to- ward Lincoln, are crowded. The Burlington train out of Omaha at 9:1§ o'clock in the morning had 250 pas- sengers for Lincoln, going to the state fair. What was true of this tram was equally true of all trains running into Lincoln, Little Freight Moves. le freight trains were run on regular schedules, they were all There was little freizht moving, going to the country had been sent out fnt 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_heavy run of busi- ness, ea?‘ecillly in the handling of live stock and grain. either jobbers nor railroad of- ficials anticipate that there will be any heavy movement of merchandise during the next ten days, or two weeks. They rt that the country merchants, in anticipation of strike, stocked up heavier than ever before, and that they will not do very much buying until their shelves 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 m{ length of time, he might be short of flour. One day fast week he came to Omaha and bought 250 sacks of flour, this order being about ten times as large h usually placed, Saturday he wa in the city to buy 500 sacks more, ing as a reason thatshe did not want to be caught with a short supply on hand, As to just 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 tl e{ express the opinion that the law will prove bene- ficial to their interests. TRAFFIC MOVING NORMALLY Railroads Begin Demobilizing Strike- breaker Forces. New York, Sept. 4—Frelght traffic on all roads entering New York inter- rupted by embargoes due to the fear of a strike is moving again today on normal schedule, Railroad men say that little congestion resulted from the brief embargoes, Large uantities of merchandise had been shipped immediately previous to the issuance of holdup orders, This being a holiday, shipments will be lighter than or y on Monday and the roads will have an opportunity to catch up with the regular order of freight movements, A task before the rallroads is that of demobilizing the: forces of strike breakers assembled last week at con- siderable expense.
