Leaving the East and arriving at Chica-
go or Indianapolis, how shall we reach
the West? The best Line is acknowl-
edged to be the C., B. s. O., Joined togeth-
er with the B. & NJ Railroad by the Iron
Bridge at Burlington, and called the BUR
| LINGToN ROUTE.
Thesmain line of the Route running to
| Omaha connects with the great Pacific
Roads and forms to-day the leading route
to California The Middle Branch, enter
ing Nebraska at Plattsmouth, passes
through Lincoln, the state Capital, and
will this year be finished TO Fort kearney
| forming the shortest route across the
Continent by over 100 miles.
Anotherbranch of the 3. NJ. diverging
at Red Oak, falls into line running down
the Missouri through St. Joe to Kansas
City, and all Kansas. Passengers by this
route to Kansas, see Illinois, Southern
Iowa, and Missouri, and by slight di-
vergence, can see Nebraska also.
Lovers of fine views should remember
the Burlington Route, for its towns high
cleaning from afar"-its tree-fringed
streams-its rough bluffs and quarrleS
its corn oceans stretching over the pral
| ries further than eye can reach.
Land buyers will be sure to remembel
it, for they have friends among the two
thousand who have already bought farms
from Geo. S. Hurts, the Land Commits
sioncr of the B. 1 NJ. r. r. at Burlington
Iowa, or among he four thousand home
steaders and pr emptors who last yea
filed claims in ,e Lincoln land office
where "Unclei ais rich enough to Civ
us all a farm"
