Marketing Plan i Is Held Solution of Farm Troubles I I Inspection of Personal Inter est Urged by Speaker at ' Dawson County Feder ation Celebration. By Associated Press. Lexington, Neb., July 4—Active | personal interest of the farmers of Nebraska in the activities of the Ne braska farm bureau federation is absolutely essential if the farm bu reau is to fulfill the mission for which it is intended, C. B. Steward, the new secretary of the federation, lold farmers assembled here today for the annual Dawson county farm bureau picnic. Today was the new secretary’s third official day as sec retary of the organization, he having , assumed the duties of the office July 2. "The very foundation of agricul tural success and welfare is laid in your farm liame." Mr. Stewart said. "The home and community form the only sure and safe foundation on which to rear the farm bureau struc ture. “The men who are charged with directing the policies of the farm bu teau look to you to determine what those policies shall lie. You cannot • vade this responsibility, and the i g iod which the farm bureau may ren der the cause of agriculture is lim ited only by the influence and thought which the individual member puts into bis ores nisri t ion iy a ir na . e ter rific upheavals of the past few years our economic balance wheel lias been thrown off center. No readjustments of political, economic or social con ditions can be maintained except it be based upon the principles enunci ated in the declaration of inde | pendence, because the value of our political institutions cannot be measured by the dollars that are earned or the power that is wielded, but rather by the measure of human happiness that is being dispensed.

L Lumber Millionaire Sued Miss Olga Kalpli. John K. Kirby. New York.—John K. Kirby, b.t-yearold I eras luiiibii' niilhonaire, has been directed to appear ill N'e^York for examination before trial ,in the suit for $5,000 begun against hint by Olga Ralph, pretty blonde of 23. Miss Ralph is suing under the terms of an alleged agreement by wl ich liirliy was to pay her $6,000 a year for life at the rate of $500 a month. She is suing for ten months' bark payment. Miss Ralph says that when she and Kirby became close friends, she agreed to travel with him as Vis daughter, secretary and companion, adopt the name .f Kirby, and make Kirby's life happy. Then, she says, things did not go so smoothly, and they agreed to separate. tention and resptc of related indus tries. ■'Born of the necessity of agricul ture for a unified vehicle to repre sent its interests, the farm bureau federation ha's edme to be recognized as the great national organization for farmers. Agriculture Recognized. "We find ample evidence of the ac ceptance of this new order of things by the fact that no conference called for the purpose of discussing and set tling policies of a national character is considered complete without the presence of the accredited reprcsenta fives of agriculture at the council ta ble. "We now come to consider another form of farm bureau activity that is of great importance to farm inter ests. Farmers have studied the con ditions governing production and prof ited by this study to the extent that the American farmer is today the greatest producer of foodstuffs for man in the world. “Unfortunately, our study of the marketing of our products has not kept pace with the production. In order to correct this evil, the farm bureau has set itself to an exhaust ive study of the world marketing con ditions and to the development of bet ter marketing methods. "Farm products, with a value far in excess of that of any other indus try, make the least returns to those primarily responsible for their pro duction. The farmer does not receive his fair share of the price which the consumer pays for his products." Th% solution, the speaker said, was being found in the organization of farmers' co-operative marketing agencies. Great Fall* Children Paid for Digging Dandelion* Great Falls.

Strange Man-Fating Beast Is Slain in Fast Africa Mombaso, July 4.—It is thought that the strange man eating beast which for years jjasi has terrorized the lvericho district of east Africa has beeji killed at last. It is certain that a weird animal hitherto unknown to science has fallen to the gun of Mr. J. Herman Burge, an American sports man, who is at present on a shooting expedition in Kenya colony. The beast was “spotted" early one morning outside the camp, and was shot In the act of charging one of the party. The animal is described as a species of giant man-eating hyena of a strength and bulk hitherto unheard of, and with jaws as powerful as a lion's. ^ht* skin is striped like the ordinary hyena's, but, unlike that animal, its hind and forequarters are of equal heights. It has a mane of long, stiff bristles, which are capable of being erected to form a terrifying fringe to the massive face. Not long ago this animal, which is known by the natives as the ketet, or Nandi bear, dragged a live ox over a five-foot wall. A few da\s later it killed a native with one blow of its paw.

Changed economic conditions in Eu rope and the Cnlted States are given by the officials here as the reason for the great influx of tourists from abroad.
