Murdock, Heb. Krst Door Worth of Bank Business Looking Better The Lincoln Telephone and Tele graph company have had in progress a campaign for better business, and have been rewarded by good results over their entire territory, as is evi denced by the results in Murdock, where with the efficient work of Misses Helen and Mary Bornemeier, they have added some sixteen new phones to the list on the exchange. A new service being inaugurated is the market phone, which allows the sending of markets for a brief period at nine o'clock. The message is lim ited to two hundred words at each period of dispatch and is now sent out three days of the week by Mrs. George Miller and the other three days by the Warren Produce com pany. It is expected to extend this service to include quotations on grain as well. The poultry and cream mar kets are now being furnished regu larly, as well as the weather, which makes it very convenient for those in business as well as the farmer, for it is a farm service. The telephone is well nigh indis pensible to the conduct of modern day business, and instead of being a luxury,-is ai investment that can be made to yield good returns. WHEW two cars collide, scmeone must pay for the damage done. The cost of accidents comes mnch higher than the cost of insurance. Carry ade quate, dependable insurance! Searl S.

More Poison Asked to Com bat Hoppers Senator Anderson Arrives to Appeal to Governor Bryan for Addi tional Funds. An appeal for delivery of as much more poison bran as has already been furnished northeastern Nebraska to combat grasshoppers will be carried to Governor Bryan Thursday by State Senator Andersen of Bristow. Ander sen arrived in Lincoln Wednesday night to appeal to the state to come again to the relief of the territory which is suffering its second serious grasshopper infestation in three years. "The poison we have had has checked the hoppers," Andersen said, "but it will take as much again and maybe more to continue to hold them in control." The state already has spent more than 56,500 of the 510,000 fund available for the next two years for poison, chiefly in half a dozen north eastern counties. The infestation is not as general a3 in 1931 when drouth and hoppers almost devastated the territory but infested districts re port local conditions .more serious than two years ago. Senator Andersen said he also would ask Governor Bryan to plan hand and team labor road work for that section to furnish cash employ ment for hard-pressed farmers and laborers, who have seen their grains, hay and pastures destroyed by heat and drouth. He said rain can yet save the corn crop but must come soon. Rain also would permit farmers to plant forage crops to help take care of feed for livestock next winter. COMMUNISTS HOLD FUNEEAL Omaha. Communists and com munist sympathizers gathered at Workers hall here to conduct fun eral services for Edward Fritsche, 59, who died June 28 of a blood clot which affected his heart.

The protest is aimed at the Douglas coun ty board and was coupled with a de mand for larger relief rations and fcr unemployed insurance. The handbills said fiatly that starvation was the cause of death. Mrs. Fritsche said she turned funeral arrangements over to communists be cause she had no money to pay for them. Bryan Leaves Home for Trip to His Farm First Time Executive Hes Been Out in Eight Months Is Slowly Building Up Strength. Lincoln. July 5. Governor Bryan's first trip from the executive mansion in eight months was a happy mem ory today as he spent long hours, as usual, on state business. With Mrs. Bryan, he rode to his farm four miles southwest of here Monday and inspected the live stock raised there under his direction. Seated on a wagon tongue he watched while employes led out spring calves, pigs and colts and showed just how the farm had pro gressed during the months of his ill ness with heart disease and compli cations. "I'm sitting up half the day now and working around my room in business clothes. I can go down stairs with a cane and I was out on the front porch the other day," he said. "The poison's out of my system now that the teeth are gone," he said. "And now it's just a question of building up my strength."

WARNS OF FARM RACKETEER Washington. Farmers were warn ed against employing experts to draw up their contracts in the acre age reduction campaign under which farmers will be paid benefits for agreements to reduce acreage in 1934 and 1935. Chester C. Davis, director of crop production, said reports had come to him that individuals posing as experts had offered to "make cut the papers" for farmers who intend ed to sign agreements for 10 percent of the cash payments the farmers would receive. "No wheat growers who intend to participate in the program for ad- Justing production and to receive compensation payments for his co operation needs to pay anybody for helping him make out the necessary forms, statements and agreements," Davis said. "All necessary forms will be presented to the wheat growers by authorized agents of the secretary of agriculture. In some instances the county extension agent3 will repre eent the secretary; in other cases, special agents will be employed and assistance will be given without cost to the farmer." DRYS FAVOR THIRD PARTY Milwaukee, July 5. Dissatisfied with the stand taken by both major political parties, the annual conven tion of the national Women's Chris tian Temperance Union adopted a resolution proposing a third party which would attract dry voters. The plea for the resolution was made from the floor of the convention. The members of the committee were hastily .assembled and submitted the following resolution: "As the leaders of the major po litical parties are supporting the re peal of the eighteenth amendment, we call upon dry men and women in every state to consider sympathet ically proposals for the formation of a new political party which will actively support the principles and policies of prohibition, along with other great moral issues. The times call for citizens to return to the standard of justice and honesty set by the framers of the constitution." The organization adopted the resolu tion as the final act of business of the annual convention, which ended with the acceptance speech of the new president, Mrs. Ida B. Wise Smith, of Des Moines.
