red by the building of their church edi-
flee. The members of the church have
taken the greatest interest in the fair
and saved not money nor labor in max
ing it a pre-eminent success. And that
they have succeeded, the large crowds
attest which have been present the last
two evenings. Tonight the principal
prizes will be drawn, and the prospects
are that the hall will be crowded.

Among the ''home industries of
which the people of this state are proud,
we mention as being pre-eminent, the
Crete Nurseries. Under the superin.
tendency of E. +. Stephens, the Crete
Nurseries have successfully weathered
the disastrous years of 1S74-5-6-7-S, and
in the last four years this Furnishing en-
terprise has quadrupled its business.
They are now better able than ever, with
their greatly increased stock, grown
with special reference to the demands of
the trade and facilities, to meet the
every want of the people of the state,
in the way of forest, fruit and ornamen-
tai trees, vines, shrubs, etc. The supe-
riority of the stock grown by the Crete
Nurseries is well understood by those
who have been patrons of the nursery in
past years. The success which has at
tended the growing of the stock sold by
the nursery in this vicinity, last season,
has been most encouraging to patron
and proprietor, and the sales so far this
season have been much larger than last.
A special agent of the nursery will To-
cate at McCook, this winter, and this
western country will be thoroughly can
