Copy for this Department 4 furnished by County Agent . Must Handel Fuse with Care: Better results are obtained when fuse is properly stored. Although the fuse i snot explosive itself, it re quires a certain amount of care in order to obtain the best results. It is the spark from the end of the fuse that explodes the cap which in turn explodes the Pyrotol, the new war salvage explosive. If the fuse has been improperly stored or hand led roughly, either a misfire or a hangfire will result. Both of these are dangerous and entail a loss of time and explosive. Fuse consists of a thin string of black powder wrapped in several coverings of cotton and tar sub stance, thus insulating it against moisture. However, if it is stored in a damp place, it will gradually absorb moisture and after a time re fuse to burn. On the other hand if it is stored in a hot place, poorly ventilated, it may become soft and oily which will cause it to burn with difficulty or it may become so hard and brittle that it will break when unrolled. Fuse should be stored in a cool, dry place. It can be stored I in the house without danger to the ' occupants. In cold weather it should be warmed before unrolled. Any cool burning fuse is suitable for Pyrotol, the new explosive which Nebraska farmers are using on I stumps in cultivated fields. Fuse I ordinarily burns about two feet per minute. 1 Annual Farm Bureau Meeting: , in the conversation between Stewart!"'3 hands.

SETTLE INSURANCE CASE From Monday's Daily The case of Joseph Lahoda vs. th Modern Woodmen of America et al.. UVer?V ii the moi involved the disposition money due on an insurance policy carried by the late Henry Lahoda in the Woodmen, was set tled Saturday afternoon. The insur ance company had paid over to the clerk of the district court the $1,000 due as the face value of the policy ami the trial was to determine the right of the heirs to share in the dis tribution of the money from the pol icy. The deceased Henry Lahoda had carried a policy for a number of years in the Woodmen and had it transferred to different beneficiaries from time to time and at the time of his death it was carried In the name of his mother and two daugh ters, Opal Lahoda Parsons and Mar garet Lahoda. A few days before his death application was made to have the beneficiary designated as Joseph Lahoda, a brother, but before this could be done he passed away. The court after hearing the evidence on all sides of the case arranged a very pleasing compromise of the case. The brother, Joseph Lahoda, who had the care of the deceased for the last few years, was given $331.75 and the two daughters of the de ceased each given $202.80 and the remainder of the value of the policy taken out in the payment of the fu neral expenses and costs.
