ANCIENT BUTTER WAS RECOVERED
Was Put in a Spring to Cool Forty-six
Years Ago and Was Discovered
This Week.

Decatur, Neb., Jan. 25.-Decatur can
probably show older butter than any
other town in the country. Forty-siX
years ago an Indian brought Mr.. De.
catur, who lived a mile and a half
southwest of town, a jar of butter It
was placed in the spring to cool and
when his daughter went to get it, the
butter was gone. 1t was thought that
some Indians had taken it..
A day or two ago a hunter saw the
edge of the jar in the water. This
aroused his curiosity and with some
effort he got it out
The butter is covered with mould
on the outside, but this has been re-
moved in places and shows that it had
a good color. Many have tasted it,
but think it tastes rather old What
it may have lost in taste it has GER
tainly gained in color.
There was no difficulty in identify.
ing the butter as there are many here
who remember the incident, including
Mrs. Stevens Mr.. Decatur's daughter.

A RAIN OF VEGETATION,
Peculiar Phenomenon Followed Storm
of SIeet and Snow at Plattsmouth.

Peculiar Phenomenon Followed Storm
of SIeet and Snow at Plattsmouth.
Plattsmouth, Neb., Jan. 2G.-After
the snow and sleet storm a few days
ago, very peculiar phenomenon was
noticeable in this part of the state
1t was the appearance of bits of grass
straw, oat hulls, and other vegetation.
which literally covered the snow and
sleet, The question asked by every
one was where did come from? There
was no high wind ACCOMMODATING the
storm to carry it from adjoining fields.
and this would have been impossible
in any event from the fact that the
storm began with a rain which rem
dered everything damp and then turned
to sleet and snow, which completely
covered the ground and the deposit
referred to fell on top of the snow
and sleet, The most plausible sup
position advanced is that the sub
stance was taken up into a cloud dur
ing a severe wind storm in some of
the northern states, and when the
cloud reached this locality, it struck
current of damp air which bore it
to the ground, The real cause of the
peculiar incident may never be known,
but if in the next few years any
strange grasses or weeds spring up it
will be hard to convince the average
farmer of this county that the storm
had naught to do with depositing the
seed.
