In answer 10 suggestion recently
appearing in The Times. the COmmis-
siOners are considering the adoption OF
a regulation preventing skating on the

proved by Major Sylvester. who says
that the Police Department has receiv-

The measure suggests that the use
Of rolIo- skates be confined TO the road

without a phone in his home.
h schools Of the county are In excel
lent condition, and at the present time the
county has fifty-eight school districts,
with fifty-seven school buildings and
seventy-three teachers.
Stanton county has 295,O0 acres In farms
with $4,000 under a high state OF cultiva-
ton, 1t is a county Of mixed farming,
which pays much attention to the live
stock industry. A large part OF the grain
raised in the county is marketed in the
form of beef and pork. Last year the
farmers Of this county sold and shipped
out 1916 beef cattle, 1886 fat hogs, and
$50 well bred horses. Besides this, these
farmers sold and shipped out 200, 400 bushels
Of corn, 10, 800 bushels Of wheat and 226,0 900
bushels Of oats.
Stanton county, for its size, stands high
in the dairy industry. Last year the farm
ers Of the county had on their farms 600
mich cow where they used S2 hand
separators. These farmers sold and
shipped out 5000 pounds of butter and
11.4OO gallons Of cream. This accounts in
part for the fact that at the present time
these farmers have 4,176 acres seeded to
alfalfa, and more is being added each
year.
Last year these farmers produced 60, 800
acres OF corn, 5000 acres of wheat and
49, 900 acres of oats.
The several nurseries Of eastern Ne
braska have been and are doing a splendid
work among the farmers. There is
hardly a home that has been established
any length Of time through the rural dis
tricts that Is without several varieties of
thrifty fruit trees. As a county, at the
present time, there is growing and in fun
bearing 5000 apple, Ss4 pear, LOCO peach,
1000 plum and $500 cherry trees.
II one can get away from the beaten
lines OF travel in this county and take a
trip with team or automobile he will be
impressed with the universal prosperity
over the entire county. Each year a bet
ter grade Of live stock is being produced,
each year more pains is being taken with
the selection of seed and the rotation OF
crops, and each year a higher STANDARD of
living is noticeable on these farms. It is
doubtful II there Is any locality In the
state that Is settled by a more Intelligent
class OF people than the rural districts Of
Stanton county. Zach year the farmers
