Hecnnse of the fart wheat crops in
other countries are no greater this
year than lust and t ho t-nifed States
thej-efr.re will bo called upon to fur
nish wheat in larger quantities than
vT hi fore. 10-cent bread ani n
pharp it-crease I nil t lie necessities
of lift1 will result to tin- people of
this country.
This is the opinion of an expert
who discussed the subject last week.
He declared the demand being made
by the warring nations on America
for all thinzs that are made In those
countries in peace times would bring
this about. He said that with the
supplies in the I'nited States In no
way appreciably increased over last
year and In some Instances lessened
by reason of reduced crops and pro
duction, prices would necrpsarily In
crease this winter.
The first and most far-reaching ef
fect of this trade condition, an ex
pert In the Bureau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce observed, would
very probably come in the increase
of bread to 10 cents, or what
amounts to the same thing, a reduc
tion of the 5-cent loaf to about half
its present size.
Administration leaders are alarm
ed at the prevailing high prices and
fear that while they are caused by a
fixed condition of supply and de
mand, the public will blame the pres
ent administration for the situation.
According to an expert, wheat,
condensed milk and wrapping paper
all must be considerea in making the
price of bread. As Europe gets more
of these things as the war progress
es the price steadily Increases in this
country until it is next to impossible,
this expert said, to furnish the same
size loaf of bread at 5 cents.
In 1914 the United States exported
92,393,775 bushels of wheat. The
exportation rose to 259.64 2,533 last
year and In the fiscal year of 1916,
ended June 30. 'wheat exported
amounted to 173,274,015 bushels.
There was also a slight increaso in
Hour. In 1914 the Hour exports
amounted to 11.821,4 61 barrels, In
1915 it amounted to 16,182.765 and
in the fiscal year of 1916 was 15,520
619 barrels. Omaha Trade Exhibit.

Do you take the time to read the
short items in your local paper that
are supplied by the " country corre
spondents." those who send in the
news regarding their own particular
neighborhood? If you don't you are
missing a great opportunity in your
advertising. The next time your pa
per conies to you read clear through
the news from "Happy Hollow,"
"Moore's Grove." or "Cullom Creek."
You will be surprised how many tips
for business such a reading will give
you. You will know those who have
moved and are likely to need some
thing new; you will learn of the sick
and can telephone or send words of
sympathy. Wo have known cases
where you might even know where
you could likely sell a new outfit for
housekeeping, for there Is nothing
too trivial or personal for some of
those keen country correspondents to

Lincoln. The railroads Saturday
afternoon dismissed in the supreme
court of Nebraska the appeal they
had taken a year or more ago from
the reasonableness of class rates es
tablished by the state railway com
mission in order No. 19.
The dismissal was filed for all of
the railroads in Nebraska by Judge
E. I. Holmes, attorney for the Hock
Island, and J. W. Weingarten of Om
aha, attorney for the Rurlington. No
reason is given In the tilings for this
action on the part of the carriers.
The railroads as apellants have a
right to distills an appeal which they
themselves tiled. The court Is not
now In session, but at its next meet
ing will as a matter of course grant
the request of the roads.
The abandonment by the railroads
of their fight against the reasonable
ness of rates established by the state
railway commission brings to a sud
den close what promised to be the
most important rate legislation ever
commenced in the state of Nebraska.
It is in a legal sense an admission on
the part of the carriers that the state
rates are reasonable, but it does not
mean that the roads have stopped
their fight on these rates. It is con
strued to mean that the light has
only commenced In earnest and that
the railroads find their own appeal
in the state court in the matter of or
der No. 19 a stumbling block in the
way of their winning in the federal
court. The roada art! attempting to
set aside the state-made rates and
enforce in their stead rates which
they allege the Interstate commerce
commission has prescribed. With a
.suit pending in the state court in
' volving the reasonableness of state
i made rates might in a measure inter
j fere with the program of the roads to
! enforce higher rates, so the carriers
wipe out the litigation in the state
court and will now devote their en
ergies to the fight in Hie federal
courts.

Washington. Officials of the navy
department today declined to com
ment on the charge that Secretary
Daniels has suppressed reportH of
two boards of experts condemning
Edison batteries as used In American
submarines.
Admiral Henson, chief of opera
tions, who was acting as head of the
department today, declined to give
out the reports in question. He said
if Mr. Daniels had suppressed them.
It was up to Mr. Daniels to give them
out, if they were to be made public.
Admiral Henson, however, Insisted
that no more Edison batteries would
be Installed In submarines if, as
charged, it is true the experts of the
department have found so over
whelmingly against them.
"I know," he said, "that the Edi
son battery has some excellent fea
tures. If it is seriously defective or
throws off excessive quantities of hy
drogen gas, as reported, I wish to
say as a leading naval officer that I
know Secretary Daniels will not or
der Its Installation on ony submar
ine." In reply to questions Admiral Ileti
ron said the whole subject of storage
batteries for submarines Is In an ex
perimental stage, and that the great
est problem has been to evolve a sat
isfactory battery.
One of the boards which reported
against the Edison battery found It
to be the cause of the explosion on
the submarine E-2 in the Ilrooklyn
navy yard January 1G.
The explosion resulted in the kill
lug of four men and the wounding of
ten others.
Another board was named after
Secretary Daniels suppressed this re
port, to investigate the general sub
ject of st orage batteries. This board
reported that the Edison battery
