Nebraska Banks Unrivaled.
The recent bankfullures In Oklahoma
and the Bcandals growing out of the
back door connection between the state
government there and the fulled con
cerns, causes the people of Nebraska,
where the supreme court recently sot
aside a Nebraska bank guaranty law,
to consider the conditions of Nebraska
banks.
Secretary Itoyco of the Nebraska
State Banking bord saB: "There has
been no bank failure in Nebraska this
year and only one failure since 1901."
The deposits have increased in tho
Nabrnska banks $8,000,000 during tho
last jcar, and notwithstanding the
strong detvnnd for loans on account of
the bad roads that have hindered tho
delivery of crops, th. banks now have
aboutdoublc the legal reserve on hand.
Thirty-four new banks have been
started wi&in the last year, and the
secretary Congratulates the bankers of
the state and the depositors on the
good showing of the banking business.
Whatever may be said for c against
tho bank deposit guaranty proposition,
tho Nebraska depositors certainly have
no reason to complain of the banking
situation in Nebraska. Sioux City

Big Postal Deficit.
Confronted with a deficit of $17,470,
770, the present administration of the
post office department began its opcr
ations. This was tho largest defi
cit in the history of the postal service.
So long as the deficit in tho department
aggregated only a few millions of dol
lars annually, little attention waB paid
to it, but when, in the last few years, it
leaped to upward of $10,000,000 and fir.
ally in 1908 exceeded $17,000,000, "or
dinary business prudence suggested
that tho cause bo definitely located."
These are statements in tho annual
report of Postmaster General Frank II.
Hitchcock, made public Monday. Con
corning tho results of inquiries into the
deficit the postmaster general says:
"Recent investigations have shown
that tho two great sources of loss to
tho postal revenues are second-class
mail matter and rural delivery.
"The loss on second class mail matter
has been increasing for many years,
until it now amounts to $04,000,000.
"The loss from rural delivery, a ser
vico Begun hardly a dozen years ago
and of unprecedented growth, reached
as high as $28,000,000.
"In these two items alono tho postal
scrvico now suffers an annual loss of
more than the entire deficit of the latt
fiscal year.
Wheat And The World.
Mr. James J. Hill continues his
warnings nnd exhortations, the latest,
uttered at tho National Corn exposition
at Omaha, being to tho effect that wi
shall beforo long have to import wheat
if we do not increnso the productive
ness of our farms. Coals to Newcastle
would on tho face ofit seems to bo rea-
Bonablo trado compared with shipping
wheat to the greatest wheat growing
land on earth. Yet tho essential facts
S are not all on tho surface. To those
i1 who look deeply into tho matter there
is seen to bo only too much cause for
Mr. Hill's warnings, for tho fact is
that tho United Stutcs is steadily de
dining In its production of wheat in
proportion to its own population and
is very rapidly declining in proportion
to tho product of other countries.
Tho United States has the unenvia
bio prominenco of being tho only great
wheat country excepting Argentina
where conditions nro so uitlerent ns
not to bo rightly comparable tho pop
uiation oi wiiicn is increasing more
rapidly than tho production, of wheat
In tho twenty-five years from 1881 to
1900 tho thirteen wheat growing coun
tries of Europe increased, in popula
tion.26 per cent and in production of
wheat 28 per cent. As for Canada and
Australia, their population increased
61 por cent and their wheat yield 120
per cent. 'But in tho same period the
United States and Argentina grow in
population 68 per cent, but in wheat
production only CO per cent. In Argon
Una tho grow.th ot, population has been
mora largely through immigration
than in the. United States, and the
difference between it and' thq growth
In wheat production is loss-significant.
But1' hero it should be qulto obvious
that If tho population continues to in
crcrtBo considerably faster than tho
growth of wheat it is only a question
' of1 time when tho wheat crop will be
..insufficient to feed the people
At tho present time the United
States produces about one fifth of tho
world's wheat crop and is probably stil
tiw clilef' whoftt country, though la
some years Russia has surpassed it.
But Argentina now produces one-fourth
as much and Canada one-sixth as much,
while Australia's crop is at Wast onc
Beventh as large as ours. The propor
tionate exports of Homo of these coun
tries are far greater than ours. In some
years Argcntlnn has actually exported
more wheat, not only proportionately,
but absolutely, than the United States.
As for tho outlook for future growth
we have already pointed out that if all
tho available and highly fertile wheat
and of Canada were cultivated and
produced at the samo nvorago rate
as
the present wheat farms of that coun
try they wouiu do ample to supply tno
whole world. I
Now, the most important point in
Mr. Hill's address was the reminder
tnat our decline as a wneat growing
country is duo to our failure to get
as great a yield from the aero as our
rivals get. Russia alono ranks below
us, with less than 10 bushels; but sure-
wo do not wish to bo compared
with a land in which agriculture Is in
so primitive n state. Our own yield Is
less than fourteen bushels, whllo Aus-
tra-Hungary's is ne.trly eighteen,
Franco's ia nearly twenty, Germany's
Is twenty-eight nnd Great Britain's is
no less than thirty-two. Mr. Hill con
tends, with reason, that wo ought to
improvo our methods of farming so as
to incrcaso materially our average
yield.
It ought to be possiblo for us to in
crease our . average to, say, twenty
bushels, or about the same as that of
Canada and Franco. Certninly we
should not lag behind either in scientif
ic knowlcdgo of soils and tho treat
ment of them, and it would be a sad
oproach to us to bo their inferior in
enterprise and thrift. The vastucss of
our western wheat fields has too much
blinded us to the need of maintaining
and Increasing their virgin fertility.
It has been a great thing to measure
wheat farms not by the acre, but by
tho square mile, but it is tho size of
the crop rother than tho size of the
field that counts. New York Tribune.

Miss Alton's pupils will givo a double
number ar Keith Theatre Tuesday even
ng, Jan. 28th. At eight o'clock the
curtain will rise for the beautiful little
play arranged by Miss Allen, "When
Dolls Come Alive." Following this
nine young ladies will present "Pyg
malion nnd Galatea," by W. S. Gilbert
and made famous by Mary Anderson, a
mythological play founded on the old
Grco story in which Pygmalion, tho
sculptur, falls in love with his own
creation, the statue of a beautiful wo
man. In tho nbsenco of his wife he
prnys that the statuo may como to lifo.
His prayer is answered, tho wife re
turns nnd of courso t oublo ensues. The
play is a comedy through-out but dis
tinguished by the refined influence.

R. G, Dun & Co'8 weekly roview says
trade, on tho whole, has been very
satisfactory, , especially in the west,
whero some of tho cities report a retail
distribution in excess of all provious
years. The cooler weather has cont lb-
utcd to mora wholesome trade condi
tions in several lines. The general
business situation thorcforo, presents a
somewhat mixed appearance, though
there is no fundamental change in con
ditions, the outlook being in tho main,
exceedingly bright.
WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps us Strong
and Healthy.
All the blood in the boay passes
through the kidneys onco ovory three
minutes, Tho kidneys filter tho blood.
They work night nnd day. When
healthy they remove about 600 grains
of impure matter daily, when un
healthy somo part of this impuro mat-
tor is loft in tho blood. This brings on
many diseases and. symptoms pain in
tho back, headache, nervousness, hot.
dry skin, rheumatism, gout, gravel,
disorders of tho eyesight and hearing,
d.zziness, irregular heart, debility,
drowsiness, dronsv. ilnnnqlfn In th
