Nebraska...Our Towns


This small Nebraska town, first called "Skull Creek Station," changed its name to "Bruno" honoring the capital city of Moravia, Czechoslovakia, the homeland of many of its residents.

Pictured is a wheat field like those along Skull Creek with two newfangled McCormick "reaping machine" in use, each pulled by teams of four horses. [Valda]
