CIVIL SKKVICE SCHOOL, Klttredge lliilldiitg, Denver STATE CAPITAL NEWS Another Cut Made In State levy by Id hi nl of AftMosMtiient and luallxAtln (I!y Herald Correspondents) Lincoln, Nebr., Aug. . 23 Food Commissioner llarman hits put the kihosh on hatnberger stands Ht the state fair this year. The fair asso ciation is to co-operate with the pure food departnent and will not Issue concessions for this ancient fair-time provender. It has been proven by previous Inspections on the fair grounds that the word "nnlcent" Is not only a prefix to, custom In this case but that hatnberger often pos sesses other propensities of a like nature which make Its food qualifi cation of a doubtful value if health Is to be considered In Its consump tion. The row which was staged at the republican state committee meeting a week or two ago, and which re sulted In the resignation of State Chairman McNish, is causing consid erable worry among candidates for state. office. A meeting which was called for August 12, to name a new chairman and to pour oil on the troubled waters, was not so product ive of good as at first thought. Mr. Sutton was at the Saturday meeting attempting to fix matters, but appar ently was not very successful. Two very disappointed state of ficials were compelled to forego the state press association trip across the northwestern part of the state last week owing to an unexpected press of state business. They are State Auditor Wm. H. Smith and Secretary of State Pool, both news paper men and members of the asso ciation. These gentlemen are, by virtue of their official titles, members of the state board of assessment and equalization. A rush of extra work In connection with this board forced them to either be derelict in their duties or stay on the Job. They de cided their duty to the state was of more importance than the pleasure this trip would afford them, and those who have never been associat ed with the Nebraska newspaper men's annual meetings cannot, begin to realize what real disappointment means when one is compelled to stay at borne while their brother and sis ter editors are galavantlng around over the state on one of their annual pleasure trips. Auditor Smith and Secretary Pool have hardly been out of their offices more than a day at a time, and very few ones at that, dur ing their more thnn eighteen months incumbency, and they had planned on this week with their newspaper brethren as a Justly deserved one of vacation ami recreation. Hence their very keen disappointment. The state board of assessment and equalization has about completed Its work for the year 1916 so far-as the state assessment and levy Is concern ed. Another cut In the levy was de cidedon after a thorough investiga tion of the necessary expenses need ed for state purposes during the present year. A comparative state ment of the last two administrations will be interesting to the voters and taxpayers of Nebraska. During 1918 14, while all the executive officers Including the state board of equaliz ation, except the governor, were re publican, the total state tax levied for those two years was 7.8 mills, raising for state purposes the sum of $7,352,470.35. During the years 1915-16 the situation Is reversed, and the state executive officers In cluding the state board of equaliza tion are democratic. In 1915 the state board cut the state levy from 7.8 mills to 6.8 mills. In 1916 this same board, which has Just conclud ed its deliberations so far as the as sessment and levy Is concerned, again cut the levy to 6.1 mills. Dur ing the years 1915-16 the amount raised tyr state purposes will total $6,334,325.05. or $1,018,145.80 less than was required when our repub lican brethren bad charge of the state government. Even with this saving to the taxpayers of the state the present democratic administra tion has paid off large deficiency in debtedness Inherited from the for mer Incumbents of the offices, and In addition have placed the state on a sound financial basis such as has not been recorded before In years. IIP F8 t ill 1 RINK H Fills M AT WATER Open sluices of system each morning wash away the poisonous, stagnant matter, says authority. and A glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, drank each morning before breakfast, keeps us looking and feeling fit. Life is not merely to live, hut to live well, eat well, digest well, work well, sleep well, look well. What a glorious condition to attain, and yet Inns' very easy it is if one will only adopt the morning inside bath. Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise, splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by open ing the sluices of the system eaeh morning and Hushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stagnant matter. . Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning, before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoon ful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and puri fying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonder fully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the water and phos phate is quietly extracting a largo volume of water from the Idotxl and getting rtady for a thorough Hushing of all the inside organs. The millions of peopc who are bothered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism; others who have sallow skins, blood disorders and "sickly complexions are urged to get a quarter jxnind of limestone phosphate from the drug store, which will cost but little, but is sufficient to make anVone a pro nounced crank on the subject of internal sanitation.

A weed cut or pulled up in time will prevent production of thousands of seeds, and will mean a smaller weed crop next year. In j the case of annuals, pulling, hoeing, plowing under and mowing, if done before seeda are ripe, will help erad icate weeds. liut ill the case of per ennials, seed destruction Is only part j of the remedy.
