Imogene Wilson, one of the most stunning of Ziegfeld beauties, became embroiled in a scan dal, went to Europe, returned to try her luck in Hollywood but failed to click, and married a mil lionaire who shortly, after went broke.

J HICHEY Telephone 128 Nebraska livestock 13 valued at $219,065,000 arrainst $122,045,000 a year ago. All livestock on farms total 7.383,000 head against 6,802.000 head a year ago. The significant fea ture is the increase of 79 percent in value over a year ago on an increase of only 9 percent in the number or head, says the State and Federal Di vision of Agricultural Statistics. Horses and mules decrease while other classes showed slight increase except sheep where the Increase was marked. The Increase in value of 79 per cent over a year ago Is very signin- cant In Nebraska because 70 percent t the income of farms is derived from livestock and its products. Milk cows, other cattle and sheep are nor mal or slightly above in numbers. Work stock is considerably below normal and swine are far below nor mal. The trend of production of swine is upward with a substantial increase of the fall pig crop and the prospective Increase of the spring pig crop. Horses total 612,000 head against 651,000 head a year ago and the 1931-35 average of 689,000 head. The average value is $86 per head against $64 a year ago and the total value of $52,377,000 against $41, 941,000 a year ago. The estimate of mules 13 70,000 head against 75,000 head a year ago and the 1931-35 average of 86,000 head .The average value is $105 per head against $81 a year ago, and the total value of $7,358,000 against $6, 063,000 a year ago. All cattle on rarin3 total 3,491,000 head against 3,232,000 head a year ago and the 1931-35 average of 3,- 479,000 head. The average value per head is $34.30 against $18 a year ago and the total value is $119,715,000 against $58,193,000 a year ago. The reduction in cattle was not nearly as heavy as expected and the present value is over twice the value a year ago. Milk cows and heifers two years old and over total 720.000 head against 750,000 head a year ago and the 1931-35 average of 748,000 head The average value of milk cows is $49 per head against $27 a year ago and the total value is $35,280,000 against $20,250,000 a year ago. These values are Included under all cattle There are 1,074,000 sheep on farms as compared with 810,000 a year ago and the 1931-35 average of 1.013,000 head. The average value per head is and the total value $32,066,000 j fov1 against $12,391,000 a year ago.
