How to Care for Prisoners.
How Nebraska prison labor
should be used to avoid compet
ing with free labor is a problem
before the Manufacturers' as
sociation. Lieutenant Governor Morehead
spoke by invitation to the manu
facturers yesterday. He advised
that short-term convicts should
be put at building roads. Long
term and life convicts should be
put to farming. Their products
be believed would not by competi
tion greatly injure agriculture,
as I he demand for farm pro
ducts is always beyond Ihe sup-
Ply.
Manufacturers who pay for
their labor and are forced to com
pete with prison manufacturers
will fail. II is unfair to employer
and lo employe to put them in di
rect competition with prison
labor, ho said.
Vice President Sanborn in
dorsed i no lieutenant governors
views and said making pond roads
and raising crops to be used in
supplying the institutions would
be the best solution of the prob
lem. World-Herald.

Mi.
m
(i
l), S. Cream Seperator
with their new inter-locking
disc, is a great improvement
over their old style disc and
cone style seperator.
' By the use of this style bowl a greater
repeating surface is obtained, therefore be
ing able to reduce their size and weight of
bowl and still be able to seperate more
milk per hour than any other seperator of the same
size, and by having a lighter bowl is much easier to
run and also gives you a great deal longer life in the
wearing of wheels and bearings.
. The new inter-locking style of U. S. Seperator
has made a world's recpre for scperating milk and
cream that has not been equalled by any other make
of seperator.
If you are in need of a Seperator this Spring or
Summer do not fail to see the U. S. Seperator in op
eration. We also want you to have one of them set
up beside and Seperator that you have in mind or
may have now and be convinced that the U. S.
Seperator is the easiest running and best made.
