.Summaruiug hi tritiiiumy, he
4erted, he had shown that "the ap
palling transportation eriii.," at the
time federal control wa inaugurated,
"forced, a vital military and econo
mic necessity, the taking over of the
railroad;" thai "federal control alone
could save the filiation and did save
it." and that "congestion was broken,
railroad linn Mere co-ordinated as an
effective national machine and the
equircd amount of transportation to
meet military needs va supplied.
Claims Offset
Over maintenance of the railroads
during the period of control, Mr. Me
Adoo contended, offset alt claims for
under-maintcnaucc. The monthly
operating cot under federal control.
Ite aid. was 5.?7a,9iW,8IJ, compared
with $473,J5",2J' under subsequent
private management. This, he point
ed out, was equivalent to a saving un
der government operation of $97.2o8.
,86 month, or $I.1(7,220,63.. a year.
' He attributed the increased cost of
operation under private control, in
part, to the "loss of all marked
economies resulting from unified con
trol under the government" and advo
cated establishment of a system of
unification to bring about an econom

j $2,000,000 in Unpaid Taxes
delinquent, County Finds
Approximately $2,000,000 in delin
quent school taxes has accumulated
during the last 17 years, according to
tax records, and the county board is
now considering means to collect
them.
. In addition to these delinquents
there is also another $2,000,000 for
interest and other items of expense in
connections with the delinquencies.
" Those who are promoting the tax
collecting schemes are confident that
half of this tax can be collected.
There are many pieces of property
not worth the accumulated taxes.
W. Lincoln Byrne has endeavored
to persuade the county board to ap
propriate $5,000 of the $30,000 sur
plus fees, and send out notices of the
delinquent tax. A collection of half
of the tax would put the board on its

Sugar Beet Acreage in
State May Be Reduced
((:illnurl from !( Oar)
market and with freight rate so
high, it has been impossible to ship
out much of the aJialfa hay which
grows so well on irrigated land. J ho
conviction that this hay can be sold
through feeding it to milk cows at
$15 a ton is strong and imy make
this valley a grtat dairy section. , At
present it does not produce enongu
milk lo supply its own needs. Con
densed milk is shipped by the carina J
into Gcring. across the North I'lattc
river from Scottsbluff.
Banks in the western country arc
encouraging farmers to obtain four
or five milk cows. If a man has a
few cows, it is easier for him to ob
tain credit than if he confines his
operations to sugar beets. 1 here
are great possibilities in feeding het
tops and dried pulp from the rentier
ies, and a beginning has been made
at making silage of the tops.
High Interest Rate.
With their right hand the banks
arc doing that which is good, but
with their left they are not bringing
the relief that they might. The in
terest rate is 10 per cent, and a year
ago a bonus frequently was charged,
which raised it to 12 per cent, and in
instances clear to 20 per cent. N'ot
much use is being made of the War
Finance corporation, through which
8 per cent loans can be obtained. In
many of the smaller towns the farm
ers are told that there is a prohibi
tive amount of red tape or that ;
bank has to have a pull to get any
share of these government funds. As
a result, credit is still tight. Uf
course, this is a new country, where
interest rates always tend to be high,
but, on the other hand, irrigated land.
which docs not depend on weather,
produces crops without chance of
failure if properly handled. Accord
ingly the risk is not great.
Beet farmers that were not eaten
up by debt made money last year.
There has been a good profit in
sheep, one man recently making $3
a head on -1,400 shipped to the
Omaha stock yards. There are,
however, only 40,000 sheep, about a
half supply.
Absentee Farming on Decline.
Large losses were suffered by
sheep and cattle feeders last year. A
good deal of this fell on business and
professional men. ' Almost every man
of means in these towns-owns a tract
of land, and 46 per cent &f the acre
age is faftned by tenants. A good
many of these are Russians. It the
disasters of agriculture have accom
plished nothing else they have at
least taught these people that they
are not able to farm any better than
the men on the soil. Bankers are go
ing 'back to their banking, doctors
to their healing and merchants to
selling their goods, instead of specu
lating in land and crops.
The lesson is being driven home
that a farm should not be expected to
support two families. Absentee farm
ing cannot be depended on for a
profit to either the landlord or the
tenant. A good many city folk who
bought land for speculative pur
poses are now ready to get out and
let the actual farmer have his chance.
Balancing the good and bad out
in this corner of the state between
Wyoming and Colorado, it is plain
that the farmer is coming into his
cwn through better production, and
marketing, reducing labor costs and
practicing economy. Thc idea of
smaller farms, more intensively cul
tivated, also is taking hold. The
streets of Scottsbluff on a Saturday
are filled with farmers' automobiles.
Merchants report that trade is pick
ing up as the people gain -confidence
in themselves and in others. One
of the cash stores here has d-ivx a
larger business this year than last.
A hotel clerk in Gering. whose view
may not count for a great deal, ex
presses the opinion that cconornv is
the chief characteristic of his fellow
citizens and that "some day they
will get tired of carrying it around.
, Hardest Part Over.
Because this is a new country
and schools, bridges and all pubi c
improvements have had to be put in,
tJxes are hih. Nevertheless, there
is no popular, support for attacks on
the school system, and no one
doubts that the election th-.s month
on bonding for $300,000 more to
erect a high school in Scottsbluff will
be favorable.
One heavy burden is that of pay
ing for water rights. Farmers hope
that congress will pass favorably on
a bill to postpone payment for irri
gation service. There is no doubt
that this would go far toward put
ting agriculture in this peculiar sec
tion of Nebraska on a surer basis.
These . farmers are coming out all
right. They will be better off five
years from now han if they had
not gone through this experience,
and the hardest part, is over.
In parts of Scotland it is a com.
mon superstition that if crickets for
sake a house which they have long
iuhabied, some evil will befall the

A Silly Song
By A. CUCKOO BIRD.
Most every day I build my share
of wonderous castles in the air and,
like the starlight in the dawn, before
I know it they are gone. But, when
today has swept away the ones I
builded yesterday, tomorrow's prom
ise heals my pain and gives me
strength to build again. I always fail
somehow it seems, to build founda
tions for my dreams; but when one
castle falls to earth, its wreckage
gives another birth; and by my
dreams I'm well repaid, in happiness,
before they fade.
Parents' Problems
How can an over-impetuous boy
of 1 1 be taught to be more cautious
both in doing and deciding what to
do?
Such a boy is sure to learn by his
own experience, and life may be
trusted to put caution into him. Let
him carry a good part of his energy
and initiative into later years. There
would be more reason to worry
about him. at this age, if he lacked
these qualities. To steady him. give
him scope for independent action,

Senator Bliss said bankers in his
section were getting back of the
stockgrowcr who wants to raise cat
tic for beef and dairying, as the
country was in need of more cattle.
In reference to the failure of pas
sage of the tax on gasoline, Senator
Bliss said that the measure was de
feated because it was unpopular and
that the people of the state were not
familiar with the bill. He said he
thought if the people had been bettei
informed the gas tax might have
been carried.
