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!

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 funeral was described in 5,000
handbills distributed by the organ
izers as a "mighty protest that will
be heard thruout the state." 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. I
