THE ALLIANCE HERALD, FRIDAY. APRIL 22, 1021
Steady Market is
the Greatest Need
of the Cattle Men
The proa tost nord of the live stock
men is a talili7.pl market, Dc;in 10. A.
Burnett of the Nelnn-ka college of
Jipricuture told nmicultuial editors at
a mretinp here Thursday preliminary
'to the annual meetinp of the Nebraska
Live tock Feeders' association, held
ut the state farm Friday.
All the esperimental herds at the
college ecopt the laby beef i-how a
loss rnntrinir from $3. SI n heail in the
csi.'P of ycarliners to $:".2S on one lot
-of 10 2-year-olds. Con p.pondinp los es
sue said to have been sutTend by
farmers generally through slumps in
the market.
"Feeders operating on a fallinpr
market inevitably face a loss," .said
Dean liurnutt, "and this has born the
cao for practically two years. No
one is able to foresee when the bot
tom will be reached, and I fear we
have not yet o.u'to reached it.
"When values become ptahlc, costs
can bo calculated with reasonable safe
ty. The man who takes fix months
or a year to prepare animals fr the
market can't be riehtly expected to
i-tand meeting an unfavorable market
on his whole year's work. Enormous
Dosses on cattle feeding drive men from
the industry and shorten up the food
supply. If something can be done to
stabilize the market and prevent the
fluctuations from day to day and week
to week, it would be an immense aid
to the farmer even if it only standard
ized prices and did not increase prices.
"I can see no stimulation of the
market until labor is once more Riven
rmplovment, thus broadening the de
mand." The man who breeds, his own Ftock
Tean Burnett said, is on a safer basis
than the one who buys Ftock. Kijrhty
five per cent of the corn prown must
ibe marketed through live stock in or
der to keep the price of corn from
rfalling, he declared.
THREE
Auto License Fees Are
to be Split Between
the County and State
A considerable amount of interes'
!has been felt in this portion of thr
state with reference as to just what
the legislature planned to do wit!
the auto tax money, and in fact there
liavinp been a mmorial or two sen)
from this region to the lawmaker'
concerning the question.
The policy of the legislature in re
.parti to use of road funds was "settler
vhen the senate in committee of th
whole recommended the passage of 1'
Tt. 343 without amendment. A figh
"was made on the division and use c
automobile license fees, known as thr
"highway fund, but the bill as it came
irom the house was accepted without
change. It is a b'll that was introduc
ed in the house after the state depart
ment of public works had conferred
with county boards, county clerks and
county treasurers. The county officer.1
.gave the bill their endorsement .
The bill as it came from the house
T0(uires county treasurers to pay 3,;
per cent of automobile fees to the
state to pay expenses of administra
tion of the motor vehicle law. It pro
Titles that the tate department aftef
conferring with county boards in re
card to the amount needed for a year
to maintain the state highways, shall
make out a budget foV such expendi
tures, not more than 73 per cent of
the motor vehicle fees to be set aside
ly the county treasurers for mainten
ance of state highway roads, known,
as state. and federal aid roads. The
balance in the highway fund in coun
ty treasuries shall be credited to the
road dragging and equipment fund
and for no other road purpose.

Minatarc Man Expects
to Retain Possession
cf "Soaked" Overcoat
A letter received fioni a woman nt
present employed at an eating hou-e
n Alliance, addre ..-ed to Mannger K.
P. Ciiicr of the I!. S. PinucUit company
ik if he is still in possession of a
ceitain overcoat which was put up
with him some time ago as security
by a man giving hi. name as "Dr.
Spalding," says the Minatare Free
Press.
The letter aroused unpleasant mem
ories in th.e mind of Mf. (trier. It
will be recalled that a bad (beck ar
tist, 'raveling under the nnrno of Dr.
Spalding, secured some merrhi.nd'so
and a small amount of cash fiom Mr.
Gr'er a few week? asro on n check. A
litt'e later during the same day, and
before the man had left town, Mr.
Grier insisted that Spalding pive him
some security on the check. Spalding
therein on left his overcoat, promising
to return for it the next tiny, but he
has not b' en seen or heard of from
that thy to this, and In the meantime
Mr. Grior had disposed of the coat,
to M.n. hal Fred Conklin, who is now
Wearing it when occasion demands and
who wid probably Tint be overly en
thusiastic about giving it up to ary
woman from Alliance or anywhere
else.
