NEBRASKA WANTS ADMISSION Makes Formal Request for Entry Into Government Circle of Health Registration. Dr. L. II. Dillon, chief of the state lepartment of health and Dr. P. H. Bartholomew, also of the state de partment, have returned from Wash- ngton, D. C... where they attended i conference of state and national lealth authorities. Every state was epresented along with certain Ca nadian provinces, Hawaii, Philippine Islands and Panama. Nebraska made formal request for ldmission to the registration area. oth in the matter of birth and Jeath certificates. The government will send men over the state to gather statistics and to check up on the state department. After the check is made, decision will be reach ed as to admission. One of the ad vantages of admission is the fact that the state will save $50 or $60 a month in postage via the franking privilege. If the investigation by the government shows that 90 per cent of statistics from over the state are of record at the state office, ad mission will follow. About 75 per cent of the states already are admit ted on deaths and 25 per cent on births. Nebraska wants in on both. Rural sanitation or health on the farm was a subject to receive care ful attention at the conference. An effort is being made to procure gov ernment financial aid to handle the situation in the same manner as the road problem is being met, the gov ernment to appropriate a lump sum and the county to match the sum available from government and state. This plan contemplates a full-time health officer in every county of the state. There are no full-time coun- jty officers at present. This program will not be framed at present.

James Lewis and Alexander J. Mattes will not have to stand trial for the second time for an alleged violation of the Reed prohibitory amendment. United States Judge T. C. Munger Monday sustained the plea in bar made by the attorneys of the defend ants that they could not be placed in jeopardy twice. The indictment charged the de fendants with the unlawful transpor tation of intoxicating liquor from a wet to a dry state to be used for beverage purposes. An indictment handed down previously by the fed eral grand Jury charged Munson et al. with the unlawful transportation of intoxicating liquor for purposes of sale. The first indictment fell by the wayside when Judge Mungor held that the government had not proved a sale and the jury was instructed to submit a verdict for the defendants. It was the contention of attorneys for the four men that they could not be tried twice for practically the same offense. Farmers, mechanics, railroaders, laborers, rely on Dr. Thomas' Eclec tric Oil.

CAR During all the years the Ford Model T One Ton Truck has been on the mar ket, we have never had one complaint of rear axle trouble. We have had no complaints of motor trouble. As the motor and the rear axle are the vital funda mentals in a motor truck, we have the right to conclude that the Ford One Ton Truck has not only met the demands of business, but has done so in a satisfactory and economic way. There is no other evidence so convincing as that which comes from long practical experience. Ford One Ton Trucks are serving along all industrial and commercial lines. You will find them everywhere. If these statements were not facts, the demand for the Ford One Ton Truck would not be as large as it is, because people are not buying trucks which do not give service. Coupled with the dependability of the Ford One Ton Truck in all classes of usae, comes the economy in operation and maintenance. On the farm, in factory delivery, for the merchant, manufacturer, and contractor, in these days of modern business methods, this worm-driven One Ton Ford Truck has become an actual necessity, viae in ana iaut ic over.
