preme court a few weeks ago, has

heard at Lincoln, both cases being
important rulings.

. That state bank can only pledge
its assets for the security of deposits
when duly authorized so to do by
law.
2. Under section 77-2601, Comp.
St. 1929, a state bank designated

longing to a city of the second class,
may by contract pledge assets for
the security of the deposit, and such
contract is binding on all parties
thereto.
3. The statute requires that a de
posit of public money in a bank shall
be a secured deposit subject to ne
gotiation. hetween..the bank and the
city and the provisions of section
S-140, Comp. St. 1929, do not apply.
The second case that was reviewed
by the local jurist was that of Woods
vs. The County of Brown, an appeal
and the judgment of the lower court
affirmed. In this case the court held:
1. The county treasurer is a min
isterial officer ' only, charged with
many duties, and without judicial
power to .pass on the validity and
regularity of the acts and proceed
ings of other officers.
2. All money received by the
county treasurer for the use of the
county shall he paid out by him only
on warrants issued by tne county
board according to law, except where
special provision for the payment
thereof is or shall be otherwise made
by law. Comp. St. 1929, sec. 26-1301.
3. By statute it is made "unlaw
ful for the county board of any coun
ty in this state to issue any warrants
for any amount exceeding the aggre
gate of So per cent of the amount
levied by tax for the current year,
except there be money in the treas
ury to the credit of the proper fund
for the payment of the same; nor
shall it be lawful for the county
board to issue any certificate of in
debtedness in any form in payment
of any account or claim, nor to make
any contracts for or to incur any in
debtedness in, any form in payment
of any account or claim, nor to make
any contracts for or to incur any in
debtedness against the county in ex
cess of the tax levy for county ex
pense during the current year; nor
shall any expenditure be made, or
indebtedness be contractd to be paid
out of any of the fund3 of said coun
ty in excess of the amount levied for
said fund." Comp. St. 1929, sec.
29-116.
4. A county treasurer has no au
thority to liquidate claims against
the county.
3. A county treasurer's duties as
to the payment of public money be
ing prescribed by statute, he cannot
excuse their discharge in a different
manner. He cannot pay out the pub
lic funds entrusted to his custody in
an unlawful and unauthorized man
ner, take an assignment of the claim
and be reimbursed by the county,
and thus do indirectly what the law
prohibits him from doing directly.
6. Where a county treasurer un
dertakes to pay unallowed salary
claims against a county from cer
tain sinking funds of the county en
trusted to his custody without a legal
warrant being issued thereof, said
treasurer cannot take assignments of
said salary claims, and thereafter file
and recover the same as a valid obli
gation of the county, unless the said
sinking funds are reimbursed prior
thereto.

Turkeys Need
Shade, Redditt
Points Out
Shelters Should Be Built Where Na
tural Shade Is Lacking Alfalfa
Hay Is a Good Feed.
Where only a small amount of
shade is available to turkeys pre
cautions must be taken to keep the
birds from using the same ground
and possibly becoming victims of
blackhead, J. R. Redditt of the Ne
braska college of agriculture points
out.
"Inexpensive, yet rather service
able sun shelteis may be made of
marsh grass, weeds, straw or brush
piled over a wife covered frame of
poles," Redditt declared. "In some
instances the side of a brooder house
will probably roost on this crude
shed so make it strong enough to
support them."
Some poultrymen use "A" type hog
houses, not in use, for shelters for
poults. Set on legs about two feet
above the ground with roosts level
with the bottoms, they-make satis
factory quarters for small broods of
poults. Poultry nesting may be used
under the roosts and around the sides
to keep the turkeys away from the
droppings.
Redditt points to observations at
the North Platte experiment station
which indicate that urkeys on clean
alfalfa are produced at a lower cost
than those on dry lots with plenty
of feed before them. Turkeys on al
falfa eat less feed but grow faster.
The two comparative flocks eat about
the same amount of grain but the
one on alfalfa uses much less mash.
