current expenses and meet pending
claims not yet allowed without the
necessity of again registering war
rants.

The city of Omaha following the
present custom of regulating every-j
thing by law has decided to let the
city council regulate the weater by ]
.-solution instead cf leaving this im
portant function to mere govern
ment weather prophets. The weatn- i
er forecast in the World Herald of j
Monday morning read: ‘By order
r» the city council: For Nebraska,
fair and warmer." The council’s ac
tion was made necessary by the recent
cloudbursts, baby tornadoes and hail
storms turned loose in the vicimty of
the metropolis by irresponsible per
sons. Out-state attorneys however
express grave doubts ns to the i ght
of the Omaha city council to regulate
the weather anywhere in the state
outside of the corporate limits of the
city and point out that such a prac
tice might result in untold harm to
the agricultural interests of the cen
tral and western portion of Nebraska,
which might need rain nd need it
badly while the city was pulling oft"
some public gathering for which the |
council had ordered fair weather.

week of summer, which began Sun
day, June 21.

WHY MILK REMAINS SWEET
II have just installed a new Reid Milk Cooler and Areator. The
milk passes over the coils and cold water passes through, them.
Hie milk is cooled from 98 degrees to 55 degrees as fast as it is
, milked. The milk looses all the animal heat before being bottled
' “nd. W«H remain sweet much longer. Due to the rapid increase in
business since installing the cooler I believe it is a great help to
my customers.
I have als9 built a large cooler holding 1200 pounds of ice for
storing our butter and other dairy products. This insures you
receiving them in the best of shape.
;l AH the leading dealers in town handle our butter! When buy
i : mg, ask them for it.
