Ono den was fuond within a nicho of tho ranch buildings and only a short distance from the railroad. Maxwell Tele-post SENATOR Mrs. Marie Weeks, editor of the Norfolk Press, made tho following comment in a late Issue of her paper concerning J. S. Kroh, candidato for state senator of the 31st district, which is appreciated at Its full value because Mrs. Weeks is not only u good newspaper woman, but very ac tivo in the politics of the state as well.

FREE TRIP Soreral local business men havo been victimltlzcd by bad check artists in tho past few weeks and as Is usual i such cases the victim is satis fied if ho gets his money back nnd lets tho guilty ono oscapo tho law. This proceeding Is entirely wrong, tho right thing to do would be to send tho guilty ono to tho penitentiary, then thoro would bo fewer checks coming back marked "No Funds." This office printed warning cards for ono firm this week, and if they live up to the wording of the cards, the next bad chock tendored them will mean a free trip to Lincoln for the guilty party. Tho Parent Teachers' Association gave half tho amount an hand and tho Sutherland Woman's Club gave a $50 Liberty Bond. Thcso funds will bo i usee to purchase new books.

Yet they are packed, once more, with dirt. Tap your shoe on any rug and see the dust arise. Daily that gritty dirt, laden with germs, is tracked in from the streets. Tramped under foot, it settles deeply into rugs, out of reach of hand sweeping, to grind off nap and menace health. The bother and expense of frequent outdoor cleanings once excused its accumulation in rugs. Present standards of cleanlness do not. For it is now easy, with The Hoover,' to beat out all such nap-wearing, disease-bearing grit from rug depths. At the same time, this efficient cleaner also sweeps up stubbornest litter, erects crushed nap, revives dimmed colors, and powerfully cleans by air suction. The Hoover does all this in one rapid, dustless oper ation, guaranteed to prolong rug life and to clean thoroughly. Its ait-cleaning attachments also permit dustless "dusting" of upholstery, portieres, etc. Why not live amid cleanliness the year around, enjoy better health and preserve your rugs from wear? Repeat edly a Hoover thus saves its cost. North Platte Light & Power Co. A weekly report will bo made Ir Jtheso pages and an accurate nco -:. ' or battles, casualties and etc. will be reported.

Tho family wero awakened by the squaking of tho chickens, and think ing sqmo of thorn might bo caught In n trap, Mr. Roberts had set for rats, ho and his wifo rushed out to find a man in tho chicken house with a sack ful of chickens, and several under his coat. Mrs. Roberts hurried Jnto the house to call for the marshal from Farnnm, nnd while she was gono Uio thief knocked Mr. Roberts down, es enping. No trace of the thief has boon found. Suspicion has been thrown on a man seen driving two covered wagi ons the same day of tho attempted robbery, camping near tho stockyards who disappeared evidently Immedi ately after the attack on the Roberts chickens. Tho two wagons and three horses wore left at tho stock yards, It would seem tho party left town a horse back. Tho wagons wero turned ovor to the city offlcinls, and found to contain a numbor of chicken coops nnd numerous secret compart ments for chickens. Mr. Roberts is keeping tho horses until further dis position is made of them by tho city officials. Farnam Echo. CIRCUS JUNE 3.

Tho Midwest Veteran, tho woekly newspaper for world war veterans of Nebraska, published at Lincoln, says: With colors Hying and a battalion of husky Legionnaires working day and night, North Platto Is holding third place among tho posts of- No. braska. Grand 'Island, defender for theso honors and third largest post during 1920 and 1921 made a desper ate chargo on Selby'a cntronchments this week, but was repulsed. Hardly a day has gono after tho an nouncement that North Platto held third placo than Commander Treat rallied his goneral and a great drivo was mado. This offensive brought in fifty-six new members and the nec essary report of samo was mado to G. II. Q. However, tho North Platters retaliated and storming tho ground of tholr opponents returned with for ty ono now prisoners. This" .left tho final count as follows: North Platto 301; Grand Island 227. Both gonorals and their armies are now pausing for breath and aro busy replenishing tholr supplies and got. ting replacements. A mossago from Grand Island adviBcs us that "they havo a surprise in storo for North Platto," whilo tho North Platto de fenders staqp that "they nra going to hold their ground at any cost." Thte promises to bo tho blggost battlo of tho year a,ml wo advlso nil out readers to watch for tho results. , Tho bird counting work of tho Bio-' logical survey of tho United States department of Agriculture, which was seriously decreased during tho period1 of tho war, is now being taken up' more energetically, with tho aid of many voluntary observers. Any In- f.nristiv1 nnramia wlin nrn fntnint"l ' ' w . v ........ with birds of their rcspectivo locali ties can contributo data in connection with this survey, which will extend ovor a number of years. Tho infor mation which this study will furnish concerns not only tho total bird pop ulation of the United Stntos but also Its fluctuations from year to year, and tho effect of tho present state and federal laws on tho increase of game and insectivorous birds. Instructions for properly making n bird count will bo sont, with report blanks, to anyone, upon application to tho Bureau of Biological Survey. Of ficials hopo that counts will bo con-J tlnued ' on all lands whero they havo bcon previously made. It Is especial ly desired to obtain series of counts Indicating bird life on tho Plains, the dosorts and In tho southern and west ern states. Tho "height of tho breeding sensd'n should bo choson for this woek. In tho latitude of Washington, D. C, this comos about May 30. Near Boston It Is about a week lator, nnd south oi Washington It Is earlier. In any lo cality tho count should be mado ns soon ns tho birds -aro well sottlcd on their nesting grounds, but not until after tho end of tho migration Bon-' son. What Is Wanted is to learn how ! many pairs of birds actually neBtj within tho selected areas. Birds that visit tho area only for feeding pur-' poses must not bo counted. Tho best tlmo to mnko tho count Is early In' tho morning when malo birds are usually In full song, and each mny. safoly bo taken to roprcsont a breed-1 lng pair. A 40 to 80 aero tract should! bo selected, representing averngt . farm conditions without an undue' amount of woodlnnd or orchard. In formation is desired In detail as to the character of tho land survoyed, I Tho bureau hopes that mauy persons interested In bird llfo will make ono or moro counts this season.
