The viilne of a Stnllion remlKlra- lion law can readily be realized when we analyze the industry within Ihe state. Nebraska with one-tw elve- hundrtidth of the world's populntion has one twentieth of all the horses within the L'nited States und one hundredth of nil the liornes in the world. Only five states in the L'nion exf-eed Nebraska as to number. In 191- registration shows only 43 tier cent of the breeding stallioUH of Nebraska were pure bred. In 1914 th pure breds had increased to 53.7 per tent.. IMirltiK the same period of time the pound animals Inereahed J'roni CS per cent in 1912 to Sfi per cent In 1911. Anions the pure bred .'tallions, I'ercherons lead with 55.5 per cent of the total number, Ilel Siiiuis are second with 11.4 per oenl. In the near future we hope to nee Nebraska with i's splrn.lid climate and natural resources occupy the pinacle of success In the horse breed ing industry.

Kjor the firnt lime In ninny years, information collected by the lepHrt inent of AKrlculture nhows thnt till clas.teH of 'live utoek In thn lTnitel Stales an? IncreHsin In numbcrn. Thus the real facia contradict, absol utely, Rcnmttlonal reports that prices for meat and Bhoes would rise to un precedented nnurea In the immediate future. It has even been said that a government KtatlBt Iclan predicted meat at 50 cents a pound nnd shoes at $10 a pair within Ihe next two years. Such a prediction, the real government statisticians say, is quite unwarranted. On January 1, for example, Ihe number of beef cattle showed an In crease of G.4 per cent over the num ber a year hko, and an actual In crease of 1.212.0O0 head. Hitherto the number of beef entile in Ihe Tailed States has declined steadily since 1!'10. There are also more milch cowh in the country than luU year, the Increase la inn 2..r per cent, or in numbers f2f,000. Swine, how ever, showed the Kt'calest increase ol ull claques U.6 per cent. On Janu ary 1, 1914, there were only 58,9:13. 000 swine In the country; on Janu nry 1, 1915. 64,618,000. This Is ac counted for by Ihe fact that the pro duction of swine can be Increased more rapidly than that of other classes of live stock nnd consequent ly an enlarged demand ean be met more readily. The prediction of 50-cent meat and $10 shoes was accompanied by the declaration that France alone has taken from America nearly 300, Ouo horses within the last flvv months and that the other countries at war have drawn upon our resour ces iri the same proportion. The facts are that more horses were on the farms of the United Siatea on January 1, 1915, than there were u year before, the Increase being 233, 000 head, or 1.1 per cent. So far from France alone having taken 300,000 horses from us, the total ex ports hince (lie war be win have cer tainly been much less than 100,000 and very likely not over 75,000 Since there ure nfproxiniately 25,- ooo.ouo horses altoKether in the United States, the drain on' account of the war is scarcely alarming. It is, In tact, pointed out by yo- erument statisticians that the mark et value of farm horses has actually declined to sut U un extent that tlu' average is now about $6 u head les.-. than a year ago. this decline ia most noticeable In the cotton elate mill In those slates which make a business of breeding horses lor sak In other sections. Mules have de clined even more than noises, then .value being now $11.50 per head ler than a year rc.o. The explanation i; to ue tounu in the depression on ac count of the cotton situation in th Suulli, which Is the great market fui mules. An improvement in this re epect will do much to rettore the dt - itiiinti for horses, so that governmen t pecialisis, wiiile ridiculing the no t ion of a horse fa mine, are ior,viin td that farmers will iiad It prolil.ibl' to use good woik mares for breeding more stock. s for hides, the nit nation is no quiie so ciear, but even here thel'. ha:) been much gross exaggeration From two-httha to less than one halt ol the leather used in this couii ry is imported, about 25 n r "in o the loreign hides coming from Ar gentian. 15 per cent from Cai.Pila, 1 J per cent from Mexico. 8 ' ,? per c from Fun. pear.

Simpson of Omaha answered the last call and at the age of 81 years passed away. It will be of Interest to the volunteer tireinen of Nebraska, to know that this splendid old pioneer of Omaha was the tlrst chief of the Volunteer Fire Department in Omaha and even in Nebraska. He came to Omaha In 1858. and in 1860 organized the lirst V'-H'.iH r 'ire P" .--, -t. i w,if Iowa, to purchase a fire apparatus, what we now cull a "Man Killer", but was In that time a wonderful piece of machinery and today the old settlers will tell of the great stream It could throw, and for a hand pump It mirely was a dandy. The next apparatus waa a hand drawn hook and ladder truck. Mr. Simpson was up to bin death engaged In the carriage manufactur ing business and it ban been my pleasure to be In close business re lation with him for the past 30 years. A more stanch friend and a heller, more thorough business man than this tire chief would Indeed bo hard to find, and I should like to see Ihe Nebraska Volunteer Firemen re member this and at their next con vention pass a resolution to his mem ory.

For I n roineri have not advanced with this war-time soaring of food prices. Waste of food as well ns cost of food must be considered and mini mized In these days of exorbitant prices. Fortunately, the greatest food waste with which the housewife has to contend bake-day failures ami Ihe wast" of costly baking materials is rendered preventable by tlu per fect leavening power of Calumet Ilaklng Powder. Calumet ts an absolutely suro baking powder of absolute purity. It never falls lo produce fully raised bakings that are tender and tempt ingly delirknm. For Its wonderful leavening -strength liever varies. It's always uniform nnd always unexcelled. Calumet costs u mere trifle more than cheap Ilig Can brands, but it is li'cideillj' more cionomicnl to use. For big bulk powders of inferior quality are never dependable never certain. Consequently failure as frequently as success follows their u:ie. So remember when Ompied to pave by securing greater baking pow der bulk that yon sacrifice quality and Invite bake-duy. failures thnt usually cost many times the price oT the baking powder. Many Trust Hrand baking powdera sell at a higher price than Calumet. But none pRses the high quality of this excellent Inuvener as la con clusively proven by the fact that Cal umet received highest awards at World's Pure Food Exposition.
