ARTHUR FARMERS TO
UTILIZE CROP WASTE
Plan to Construct Denatured
Alcohol Factory.
IJncoln. Dec. 4. According to in
formation received by the state board
of agriculture, fanners in Arthur coun
ty are preparing to prevent waste on
the farms in that region by utilizing
potatoes that cannot be marketed.
Many of the producers of Arthur
county are far removed from a suita
ble market. For this reason thousands
of bushels of potatoes are wasted each
year. The farmers have conceived
the idea of manufacturing denatured
alcohol from the waste. Twenty-five
farmers have banded themselves to
gether to erect a denatured alcohol
factory.
A change has been made in the de
natured alcohol law and after Janu
ary. IfUJ, farmers are allowed the
privilege of manufacturing the prod
uct from the waste of the farm.
It is estimated that denatured al
cohol can be made from potatoes at a
cost of between 20 and 2. cents a gal
Ion.

SEEK CHANGES

Large Number in Attendance at
Commissioners' Meeting.
COUNTY CLERKS IN SESSION
Discuss What They Consider Error in
Having State Furnish Office Sup
plies Assert Bocks Are Poor ana
- They Want Better Material.
Omaha, Dec. 4. By a unanimous
resolution passed by 2iV county com
missioners and supervisors in com-n
tion in Omaha, amendments to tin
present state laws are to b inisted
upon that will change the proced.ir
in building bridges, and reduce tht
tonnaee capacity required of tlx
tr!d?es. Michael Cavey, ftuiniisionr
of Booue county, introduced the reo
lit ion. He fcpoke for it at some length,
pointing out that the state require??
bridges of a twenty-ton capacity, wtile
in most parts of the t-tate bridges of
that capacity and com are nut at a!I
necess.uy. Perhaps a dozen men
epoke in favor of the resolution, while
no one defended the present laws on
this subject.
The resolution points out that th
twenty-ton requirement for . the
bridges is a hardship on the taxpayer
cf the various counties, as few of the
counties n red bridges of that Ftrei.icth
The resolution bound the commission
ers to insist on legislation that would
allow bridges to be made of a reaon
able capacity for the various counties,
according to their respective needs.
The second part of the resolution
complained of the new law which
takes from the commissioners the
pr.wer of ordering the plans drawn for
br'dges of over $".00 in cost and p!ac
this work in the hands of th fetafe
engineer, allowing him to receive bid
and let the contract. The resolution
bound the commissioners to ?eek an
fimendnient through the next legisla
ture that would give the county the
power to secure its own plan and
tpe( iterations where it pleased.
Work of County Clerks.
The County Clerks association de
bated what they consider the error in
the present system of having the state
furnish the supplies of tax lists, as
sessors' books, and other blanks for
the otTiccs of th- county clerks
throughout the state. The matter wa
left to a resolutions committee. A
resolution favoring the abolition of
the present system of obtaining ad
office supplies from the state printing
board was introduced, but Instead of
coming to a vote, was allowed to rest
until the regular resolutions commit
tee reports. It was argued that nndet
the present system the state print in?
board lets the contract for printing
the state supply of county books to
the lowest bidder, with the result that
the books are so poor that they fall
to pieces, and the paper is so poor
that one can hardly writ" on It. Also
it was argued, that since every conntj
requires a little different form of tai
lists and other blanks on aeeount of
varying condition?, it Is not well tc
have a uniform set printed by the
state and forced upon all counties
Many of the counties are buying their
own blanks and lists even though th
state Is furnishing a set. because they
want good material.
