In Conclusion, Let Me
Say That I Would Not
Pretend to Farm Without It.

GEVEN YEARS ago, Mr.. w. Holmes
- Hardin, of Chester county, enjoyed
the distinction of being one of the most
practical and successful farmers in the
Piedmont section, and according to the
best information at hand he still ranks
among the first. The appended endorse
ment of the Corbin Disk Harrow was
written by him in March, 1890, and what
he said then we are sure he will endorse
now. Read it and do some thinking:
CHESTER, s. c., March q, 1890.
SAM NJ. GRIsT, Yorkville, S. c.: Dear
Sir: have owned Corbin Disk Harrow
for several years, and consider it the most
useful and economical farming imple-
ment of which have any knowledge.
Mr.. Corbin has done more for the farmer
than all the politicians, reformers, etc.,
combined. He has done something prac-
tical. No farmer can fail to be benefited
by the use Of the Harrow, and the more it
is used the greater the benefit or profit.
1t is almost the only so-called improved
farming implement that I have ever seen
that would do all its manufacturers claim
ed for it, and the only one that would do
more. Every farmer should have one,
and a man who is able to buy fertilizers
for his land is more able to buy Corbin
Disk Harrow. The time will come when
the Corbin Disk Harrow will be consider
ed as much of necessity on the farm as
the wagon, sewing machine, cooking
stove, and might say, the pillow; and the
sooner it comes the better for the farmer.
1t only takes farmer, who has been ac-
customed to the old way of doing things.
about one hour to realize how much time
and labor he has literally wasted before
he used the Corbin Harrow. In conclu-
sion, let me say that would not pretend
to farm without it. Respectfully,
w. HOLMES HARDIN.
We sell the GENUINE CORBIN DISK
HARROW. 1t has never had a success
ful rival. If you want so-called Spad-
ing or Cutaway, we can furnish you one
made by the manufactures of the Corbin
The Corbin has solid disks and they are
the best; but as stated we can furnish the
other if you prefer to take the opinion OF
someone who has had less experience than
we, and will furnish the best harrow OF
that pattern on the market. It's mechan-
ism is identically the same as the Corbin
the only difference being in the disks.

South Omaha News

tTi8I ri gia Si 81 " isf e: W y N
An interesting discovery was made by an
Omaha attorney the other day while looking
up the title to some property in the Third
ward. According to the records the west
half of South Thirtieth street between @ and
r streets has never been dedicated to the
city. Lots one and seventeen, both corner
lots, are the ones in question. Every map OF
South Omaha published within the last
eleven years has shown that South Thirtieth
5treet was open from q street to West w
street. The lots in question are in Meday's
addition and have changed hands many
times within the past ten years. One of the
lots was mortgaged once for quite a sum
and the error was never discovered. Another
Of the lots was owned for four years by a
prominent Omaha attorney who, at the time
of purchase, looked up the title and alb
stracts himself. 1t was during a recent
transfer of the property that the discovery
was made In order to settle the matter a
quit claim deed was obtained from B. letter
and now the title 90 the property is all right.
1t is understood that this Is not the only
case of the kind in the city, similar error
having been discovered by a real estate
agent some time ago.

Omaha Land company have been engaged
the last day or two in surveying the site of
the proposed beet sugar factory in the north
part OF the railroad yards. Levels have also
been run from Syndicate park to the sugar
factory site, as 1t is the intention to use the
water in Spring lake at the factory. Pipes
will, it is understood be laid to carry off
the surplus water which will be conducted
to the new plant. Very little if any pump
ing will have to be done, as the factory site
is considerably lower than Syndicate park.
The surveyors are also stalking off part of
the old Martin Lumber company tract, which
it was announced some time ago had been
purchased by the sugar syndicate. 1t has
since been ascertained that the announce
ment OF this purchase was premature, but
negotiations are now under way with the
new owners OF the land in question, which
comprises two and seyen-tenths acres.

Colonel Fred Grant Returns from the
Blncl< Hills.

COiOnel E'reu from the
Black Hills.
Colonel Frederick Denton Grant, accom-
panied by his son, Ulysses S. Grant, was in
the city for short time yesterday after
noon. He was returning from trip through
the Black Hills, and expressed himself as
greatly delighted with his trip He said:
This was my first trip through that por-
tion of the country since 1874, and the
changes that have come over it since that
time are almost inconceivable. At many
points where there was nothing but trail
then l note prosperous towns now The
west seems to be entering an era of
good times, and with the prices that are
being obtained for agricultural products
there is no reason why good times should
not abound. No we did no camping on
this trip, but stuck to the railroads and
the common wagon roads"
During his stop in this city Colonel Grant
received a number of Omahans, who briefly
paid their respects. Among the number
We're: George w. Holdrege, j. N. H. Pat
rick d. S. Barriger, c. W. Talcott and sew
eral others His son, who will enter the
United States Military academy this fall,
received quite as much attention from the
crowd about the depot as Colonel Grant
himself. One Omaha man remarked with
some surprise about the sons height for a
young man of IS, but his father said: He
gets his height from the Grant family all
right. My father was not tall, but all my
brothers are, and l believe my grand
father was also"
