(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, Jan. 17. (Special.) Mur
tey of Cass has introduced a bill in
the lower house which is intended to
surround tile -slate guaranty banking
law with greater 'safeguards. The
bill, according to Mr. Murtey will
take the guaranty law out of the
realm of politics and place it on a
permanent business basis. He insists
that the present law is only a limited
guaranty, yet many hanks arc allowed
to represent that itv is an absolute
guaranty.
The bill is aimed principally at the
banking promoter and would prevent
such a man from representing, when
starting a banking corporation that all
other state banks are going his se
curity. He opposes the idea of allow
ing the State Banking board, which
he insists is usually under the influ
ence of one man, to assume the right
to say who shall go into the banking
business.

The Hungerford Potato Growers'
association is a newly incorporated
concern in Omaha, which plans to sell
farms to the wage earners and then
farm the farm for the buyers' profit
besides.
The association is the owner of
several thousand acres of land in the
northwestern part of the state, which
it will now sell out in five-acre tracts.
It is said to be excellent potato land.
and potatoes are to be the principal
csnp. The land, according to offi
cials of the company, has been pro
ducing from 1st) to JOO bushels ot po
tatoes to the acre. i
However, the association says that
it does not make use of these higher
figures in arriving at the estimates of
what can he made per year. Neither is
the present high price of potatoes
used as a basis tor their calculation.
hut they are more conservative than
that. It is pointed out. however, that
at 100 bushels per acre, and at a con
servative price per bushel even much
below the present price of potatoes,
the purchaser should be able to pay
for his land in two years from the
profits of his crop alone.
People's Association.
It is planned to make it strictly a
people's association. The building and
loan plan of operation is followed
and applied to purchases of farm land
instead of merely to the purchase or
building of a city home. The idea is a
new one.
The land in five-acre tracts is to be
sold to the wage earner on monthlv
payments. The company will then
farm the tracts for the purchaser on a
large scale, on a co-operative basis,
and with the most modern machinery.
By having many of these tracts in one
locality to farm, the company be
lieves it can make use of modern
machinery and do the farming on a
large scale with such equipment as
the small farmer could not afford to
have on hand for the cultivation of
merely his individual farm.
1 Ins, it is maintained, will reduce
the cost of labor about 75 per cent.
To Rotate Crops.
They expect to rotate the crops.
getting every penny the land will pro
duce, but the potato is to be looked to
as the principal crop. Northwest Ne
braska potatoes are known all over
the country.
The purchaser is to have two-fifths
of the profits each year to apply on
the payments.
The association is incorporated for
$50,000. Arab L. Hungerford is presi
dent and manager, Edward P. Snow
den is secretary and treasurer, and in
addition the following are on the
board of directors: G. J. Hungerford,
Earl W. Snowden and H. S. Hunger
ford. Arah L. Hungerford has dealt in
land for ten years, with headquarters
at Crawford, Neb., where he has ac
quired much knowledge of the agricul
tural conditions and needs of the
northwestern part of Nebraska, hav
ing, it is said, farmed more land in
northwest Nebraska than any other
five men in the section, li. P. bnow
den came from St. Joseph four years
ago. He has during the last year been
associated with Mr. Hungerford in
dealing in land in the northwestern
part of the state.
Plan of Development.
It was during their operations in
Dawes, Box Butte and Sioux counties
that these men studied out this plan
and came to the conclusion that they
had discovered the way to develop this
part of the state as it has never been
developed before, and at the same time
fill a long-felt want among those ot
medium financial means who are desir
ous of becoming the owners of at least
a small farm.

According to the railroad reports
reaching Omaha, the cattle men of
Wyoming are beginning to feel some
anxiety over the live stock situation
in that state. There xhavc been few,
if any losses so far, but indications
are that there will he soon unless
there is a let-up in the severe weather.
The feed situation is what is the most
alarming.
As a rule, the thrifty cattle man
figures one ton of hay per animal
during the winter. Generally on the
ranges and at the ranches, this quan
tity of hay was put up last season,
hut owing to the severity of the win
ter and the unusually heavy fall of
snow, most of the hay has been fed.
The heavy snow has kept cattle off
the range and close feeding has been
the rule for weeks.
The railroads have taken hold of
the situation and have put in emer
gency rates on both hay and grain
for western Nebraska and Wyoming
points. Large quantities are being
shipped with the hope of relieving
the situation before losses are heavy.
Under the rates now in effect,
Wyoming and western Nebraska
stockmen are paying $9 to $15 for
tame and $5 to $8 per ton for wild
hay.
Throughout western- Nebraska cat
tle men send in reports, asserting that
this has been the most severe winter
in years, not that there has been so
much intense cold as at other times,
but that the cold has been steady
and has continued for weeks without
a break. Again, they say there has
been an unusual quantity of snow, and
that contrary to the experience of
former winters, it has remained
spread over the ground, instead of
blowing away. As a result, the whole
of the range has been buried.

Paving Tax Row
At Plattsmouth
Taken Into Court
riattsmoiith, Neb., Jan. 17. (Spe
cial.) A temporary order, issued by
Judge Begley, was served on the
I'lattsmoulh city council last night
forbidding its sitting as a board of
equalization at a session called for
that purpose.
The controversy grows out of the
levying of a special tax for the pay
ing for paving of District No. 12,
which is between the center of the
city and the Missouri Pacific sta
tion, about a mile distant. Those
signing the petition asking for the
restraining order are: Kdward Fitz

Alkali Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too m.ch alkali, which is
very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
( The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified coc- I ut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. - It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensive
soaps or anything else all to pieces. I
You can get this at any drug store,
and a few ounces will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is
all that is required. It makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out
easily. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, anl soft, fresh looking,
bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han
dle. Besides, it loosens and takes out
every particle of dust, dirt and dan
