Rattenborg of this city,, holder of
$4,000 of the 100000 bonds of
the Atlantic Northern railroad,
through his attorneys, H. M. Boor-
man of Atlantic and Nigga Lying
by of Council Bluffs, yesterday fit
ed in district court am application
for the trustees of the railroad to
bring foreclosure proceedings a
gainst the railroad.
One condition under which the
bonds were sold and acquitted, is
that default in the payment of in
terest upon any portion of the
bonds makes the entire issue i'm
default and collectable.
Some time ago the farmers of
Elk Horn and Kimballton and in
nearby territory subscribed $4,000
for the purpose of repairing the
railroad lhe and making it posi-
Bile to carry on the large amount
of traffic that was held up be-
cause OF the bad condition of
the road. A portion of the sum
subscribed was also to be used
in paying the accrued interest ON
the bonds but for some reason
as yet unexplained, Mr. Ratten-
borg's interest was not paid, hence
this action to foreclose.
If the matter is carried out as
planned the railroad will doubtless
pass into the hands of receiy-
er.
The action has caused consider
able surprise as it was believed
that the affairs of this end OF
the much troubled railroad line
were in good condition.

Sufficient stores of good quality,
strong colonies, vigorous queens
and dry situation are the es-

successful wintering of bees i'm

Pellet, State Inspector of Apiaries.
If these essentials are provided the

little in spite of the prejudices Elk
listing in favor of certain methods.
The necessity of good stores is
emphasized by Mr.. Pellet, in a
bulletin issued by the extension
department of the college at Ames.
White honey is suggested by him
as the best winter food, there be-
ing no better feed than that coming
from white clover. Where it is
not practicable to winter the bees
on such a good sugar syrup, made
of the best grade of graduated
sugar has been found to answer
the purpose. The method of feed
