MINISTERS NEED FREE HOSPITALS Survey by Interchuroh World Movement Reveils Pulpit's Poverty. $1,242 HIGH AVERAGE SAURY FOR PROTESTANT PREACHERS Clinic and Homts for Aoed an In. firm and Bettor Salaries for Pas tors Are Part of New Co operation Program. Jlm a result of the campaign now being made by the Interchurcb. World Movement the combined Protestant churches of America will provide many more hospital, cllntca and homes for the aged and Infirm. An Interesting feature of these Protestant hospltaU will be free treatment for ministers, aa recent surveys made by the Interchurch organization have made the need for special dispensa tions very obvious. The following startling facta were divulged as to the average salaries in the various denominations. Starting with the highest, the average for, Epis copal ministers is 91,242; the average for Presbyterian (North), HAT?; tot the United Presbyterians, 91,006; ter the Reformed Church (Duteh), $1,1T; tor the Mefcoalst Episcopal (North), 1,176; Congregational, 91,042, and for the Baptists, (Northern), 9990. With government experts announc ing that 91,600 Is the lowest salary upon which a fasally can be decently maintained aad saggoatlac budgets for aone lower, uMsters have a dtscevr igtag outloek. Such tfcbegs as hospi tal bills are almost lraaosatMe to meet, snd yet every nersaal fasally has some Bines in Its midst every year. Ac- tordlngly the Interchurch Movement, while eo Its way to obtain higher aver igts In salaries, will assist by provid es free care In its institutions. Draft Horses In Demand The demand for draft horses should stimulate breeding this spring, says the Nebraska College of Agriculture. Good drafters weighing 1,700 or more pounds are bringing $275 to $450 in eastern markets. Only sound, ma ture and good draft type of horses are wanted. Tho low price of the common medium-weight type of horses in tho last few years checked breeding, and there is now un actual shortogo of good draft animals. This shortage together with the tendency to use more heavy horses, has opened up a market for the right knd of stuff. Present conditions point to a continued good market for the bet ter quality of draft horses. Catarrh Cannst Ba Cured r LOCAl. APPLICATION, as they cannot reach tho aaat ot the dlMaso.

Two yean ago, on account of the scarcity of sugar, considerable sorghum cane was grown in the state. Old milU were repaired and started up again and new ones established in several cdun ties. Five mills were operated In Seward county and six in ! ouglas county. "The sirup was sold for Sl.?.5 to $1.50 a gallon. Sugar was then celling for 11 cents a pound. Accor ding to the United States Depatt nient of Agriculture farmers' bulle tin 477, "Sorghum-Sirup Manufact ure," the average yield of sirup per acre of cane is about 155 gallons. Hence an acre or less will produce enough sirup for the average family. Sorghum sirup often can be substi tuted for sugar In cooking. This bul letin, which may be obtained lree from the College of Agriculture at Lincoln, gives valuable information regarding growing sorghum cane nd making sirup. MATRIMONIAL VENTURES.

This is enough to supply an average family during the high-priced winter month. Errs laid during May and early June have been found to keep better than those laid later in the reason. Only ef;gs known to be absolutely fre3n should be used. Infertile eggs keep jotter than fertile eggs. Only clean un washed eggs should be used and the shells should be strong and sound. Circulars gjving details about eg preservation will be sent freebytne College of Agriculture. 11 m m Practical I! i! OS 01 !
