Governor Neville has shown him
self to bo not only a good stntcsmun
but also u real patriot as it lias been
announced that, on Saturday, lie was
placed in command of tho Seventh Ne
braska reserve infantry. His resigna
tion as chief executive of the state
will take effect immediately after the
Seventh has been mustered into ser
vice. The chair will be filled by Lieu
tenant Governor Edgar Howard. -
According to tho monthly report is
sued by Secretary of State Pool, Ne
braska now has 142,000 automobiles.
The number in the state last year was
100,600. During the month of Sep
tember tho secretary's office issued 4
150 licenses. A hundred motorcycle
licenses were issued.
The more potatoes you cat the less
bread you need at the same meal.
Potatoes do not contain the same,
amount of food value as the same
weight of bread, as the former con
tains much water, but it may be
stated that a medium sized potato will
supply as much starch a most im
portant food as two medium slices
of bread. In a mixed diet, five paits
of potato are equal to one part of
cereal which means that those who
like potatoes can, by their use, safely
cut (town on their use of bread, wheat
mushes, or macaroni and yet supply
their bodies with that needed food
starch. Wherever potatoes are lo
cally plentiful, as they promise to be
this year, housewives are urged to
use them as a substitute for wheat.

The Devil Resigns in Favor of Kaiser.
An exchange says the following is
the best yet: "The devil set by a lake
of fire on a nilc of sulnhcr ketrs. his
I head was bowed upon uiis breast, his
ms tail between his legs, a look of
shame was on his face, the sparks
dripped from his eyes he had sent
up his resignation to the throne up
in the skies. 'I'm down and out.' the
devil said ho said it with a sob
'there are others that outclass me and
I want to quit tho job. Hell isn't in
it with the land that lies along the
lunne; I'm a nus-ucen and a piker and
therefore I resign: one ammunition
maker with his bloody shot and shell,
knows more about damnation than all
the imps of hell. Give my job to

Potato Storage.

done much in the past to discourage
potato atqrage.in JNebrasHtui tulmse
losses may bo largely avoided if the
following precautions arc taken:
1. Carefully grade the crop and
do not store diseased or bruised po
tatoes. 2. Treat these graded potatoes
with formalin. This must be dono
within 24 hours uftcr digging to be
most effective.
3. Maintain a temperature of 35
degrees to 40 degrees Fahrenheit,
preferably nearer 35 degrees.
1. Arrange for thoro ventilntion of
the pit or cellar. It is important
that no potato be more than three
feet from free air. Storing in deep
piles leads to ovei heating und may
seriously damugo the tubers for seed
purposes.
Further information may be ob
tained from tho department of plant
pathology und physiology at Lincoln.

The Chicago Title & Trust Co., as Trustee for the sale of the
50,000 acres of irrigated land, under the Farmers' Reservoir and
Irrigation Co. system, has authorized us to offer this land in' any
size tracts to suit the purchaser, with assurance of plenty of water
for irrigation, on terms of ONE-TENTH DOWN, with ten annual
payment, without any payments required for the first four years
except Two-Fifths of the crop and taxes. ,
Any balance left unpaid after applying Two-Fifths of tho crop
will bo extended over to the tenth and last payment, so purchaser
cannot possibly become delinquent before the end of the fifth year.
This 50,000 acres of land is second to none in tho State of
Colorado. It lays noith of Denver, and east and west of Brighton,
1-ort Lipton and Platteville. 40,000 arc under irrigation canals
that are completed, but only from (7,000 to 8.000 acres are under
cultivation.
This leaves 32,000 acres ready- for the plow today. Farmers

which is only about from one to two hours drive from Denver, and in
