Extensive improvements
Slater

That the manage ment of the
Alton has under consideration
plans for extensive improvements
at Slater, there in no longer any
doubt. The improvements con-
templated are a new and much
larger roundhouse, machine
shop large enough to do all
the repair work on engines used
on the Western division, car re-
pair works large enough to take
care of all the repairs on
this division, and last, but not
least in the minds of the people
of Slater, the plans provide for a
new depot.
TIL e above information comes
from one of the old officials OF
the company, who recently Wis.,
tied the office of the chief engi-
neer of the company, where the
blue prints were being made out
for work, whic h will probably
cost between three and four hun
dred thousand dollars and is
backed up as correct by other
officials on the Western division
who believe the work will be done
this summer afd next fall.
The people of Slater have h, ard
these reports so frequently, how
ever, that it will be necessary to
"show them before they are sat-
isfied that the work will be done,
Two years ago blue prints of a
beautiful brick depot with apar.-
ments for train dispatchers, train
master, baggage room. lunch room
ETC., was received here ,an1 tn y
report was out that work would
begin that spring or summer. But
the flood came that year and after
its devastating work in the Glas-
gov bottom and elsewhere, moth
ing more WAS heard of the conf
templated improvements at this
place
The local officials seem to take
a different view OF the situation
now. Two years ago, for reasons
best known to themselves, they
did rot believe the work would
be done. Now they claim that TIL
improvements are a necessity and
will doubtless be made Slater

Ruth Bryan Leavitt to Wed

Lincoln, Neb. April 27.-At Fair
view, the residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
William Jennings Bryan, their old
est daughter, Mrs. Ruth Bryan Lea
witt, will be married next Tuesday
to Reginald Owen of the British
royal engineers. No formal an
nouncement will be made of the in
teresting event until the young
couple are fairly on their way to
the bride-groom's ancestral home
in England. 1t is their intention
to leave Lincoln a few hours after
their marriage for New York and
embark for England. The report
of the engagement from London
was confirmed by w. j. Bryan to-
night.
In March, 1909, Mrs. Leavitt OBJ
tanned a divorce from her artist
husband, William Homer Leavitt,
almost twice her age, whom she
married seven years ago, when she
was Is. For two years before the
divorce was granted they lived
apart he pursuing his artistic
career in Paris, and she residing
with her parents at Fairview with
her two children, now and 41-2
years old. Mrs. Leavitt has taken
up voice culture at Hanover. But
her English suitor pressed his
suit so hard, both upon her and
her parents, that with their con-
sent she abandoned her studies in
Germany and came back home to

Slater Short on Coal

Thre prospects for a coal fam
inc in Slater are distre ssingly good
and unless the city succeeds in
getting coal from Fish Greek, or
the railroad company the town
will be in darkness by tomorrow
night, as the supply on hand is
only sufficient for one nights run.
This state of affairs has been
brought about by the miners
strike and the extreme cold
weather this month. The railroad
is also getting short of coal and
is absorbing all that that comes
from the mines not affected by
the strike.
Efforts to get coal in Kansas
City and Chicago have failed
Yesterday Frank Birch, street com
missioner, went to Fish Creek to
see if he could obtain coal from
the mines there. 1t is hoped that
Fish Creek will come to rescue us
from darkness.-Slater Rustler.

The Best Ration for Hogs

Ir & recent bulletin the College
of Ag. icnlture OF the University
of Missouri has published the re-
suits of a number OF swine feed
ing experiments, by E. B. Forbes.
These experiments prove that
corn-good corn-is a good feed
for any animal and that there is
no reason for withholding it from
any animal needing food. At the
same time, it Is shown that corn
alone is not nearly SO good or SO
profitable a feed as corn supple-
mented by some proteid food such
as tankage, linseed oilmeal, or
soy beans.
In hogs fed exclusively ON corn
the animal becomes very fat and
chubby and does not develop pro-
perly; the bones are brittle and
easily broken.
Sixty-five hogs were used in
this experiment and they were di-
vided into lots of five each. Twelve
different rations were used with
corn alone in two of them and
corn supplemented with some och
er feed in the others.
The hogs fed on corn and lin
seed oilmeal and those ed on
corn and tankage gained the most
those receiving corn alone were
most unsatisfactory.

Effect of Rations on the Develop
ment of SWINE" may be obtainei i

$4,000 Of license fees annually. Six
months later, commenting on the sub

increase in the consolidated levy over
last year amounts to 1915 mills, the
greater portion Of this being made BY
the school district. which Of course
must have funds to take the place Of
over $4,000 In license money which
It has lost. Its levy Is increased from
19.5 mills to "a mills. OF this. Is mills
is for general purposes and 2 mills
for the payment Of bonds and inter-
est" To be more specific. the above
recital means that the dry policy
adopted by Lincoln has saddled upon
the taxpayers an additional burden Of
$66.000. This condition was brought
about by the emotional agitators who
pay no taxes. while the property own

PROTEST OF PROPERTY OWNERS.

VoVsSoS VI FnOpeNl Z OWNeHS.
The taxpayers of every dry town in
Nebraska know that the no-license pol.
Icy results in an increase of tax as
sessments. Such additional burden OF
taxation may be imposed by majority
vote under the local option clause Of
the Slocumb law. and while many vot-
ers pay little or no taxes. the policy
is adopted only by voters of the local
community. Not SO under the pro-
posed scheme of county option"
which would give voters outside of
the limits Of villages and cities the
right to vote to force the no-license
policy upon the taxpayers of all vii
lagos and cities in the county. 1t is
an attempt to deprive the public
school fund Of the benefit of liquor
license money and to compel local
property owners to submit to exces-
sive taxation, while clandestine sales
OF liquor are constantly carried on.
The result is that a tew large property
owners must bear most Of the burden
OF cost of local government, while
the care free end propertyless agitat-
or pursues his calling and gets q liv.

Conditions in prohibition states are
