The Plattsmouth unit was the first organized in the first congres sional district and has the distinc tion of being the only unit in the district that is 100 per cent In the requirements made by the national organization for their work in var ious lines of activity , and in which the members can feel a very pardon able pride. The program for the meeting yes terday was prepared by Mrs. Frank R. Gobelman of this city, state vice president, who Is also the chairman, of the publicity committee of the state organization and who prepared the programs for all of the units over the state- for the November meeting. Mrs. Gobelman was select Big Slump Felt in Feeding Game Short Corn and Hay Crops and High Price of Feeders Combine to Make Uninviting Prospect. Decreased cattle feeding in the corn belt is still indicated. All in formation shows a marked reduction in Nebraska, says the state and fed eral division of agricultural statistics. Shipments of stocker and feeder cattle into the state for the four month period July to October are 34,000 head less than for the same period last year. This represents a 20 per cent reduction. Railroad rec-, ords of cars of cattle received at feeder stations July to September compared to last year. However,' about 30 per cent of the cattle fed in Nebraska are produced locally and do not show up in station receipts.' The number of locally produced cat-' tie placed on feed will probably be about normal except in the central area and southern third of the state, where considerable reduction has taken place due to hay and feed shortage. In the Scotts Bluff clis-l trict where nearly 50,000 head of! cattlo were fed last winter there are about 5,000 head on feed at present! with a prospect of 15,000 head foil the winter. Some Increase in cattle! feeding is reported in the northwest ern part of the state. In general, information from cor respondents and basic data indicate a 30 per cent reduction in cattle feed ing in Nebraska. The principal causes of this reduction are a 41 per cent smaller corn crop, a 34 per cent de crease in the production of all tame hay and a smaller crop of wild hay and other feeds. The narrow margin between the prices of feeder and fed cattle, together with unsatisfactory have tended further to reduce cattle feeding. Shipments of stocker and feeder cattle from markets into the corn l.elt states for the four months period Jul to October were below last year and the smallest since 1921. Princi pal decreases were in states west of the Missouri river. All states east of the Mississippi river, except Wis consin, showed small increases. Iowa had about 20 per cent increase. De creased cattle feeding in the corn belt is still indicated. Decline in corn prices has, however, stimulated the demand for unfinished cattle. ?

These facts, together with much other valuable information are dis cussed in a recent report of the Wom en's Bureau of the U. S. Department of Labor, on a textile study based on the records of 18 mills. 9 In' the North and 9 In the South, and on interviews with over 2,000 women mill operatives. In the mills included women con stituted more than two-fifths of the total number of employees, the northern mills" showing a slightly higher percentage of women than did the southern mills. The northern mills, however, far surpassed those in the south in the proportion of foreign-born women workers, since one-third of the wom en employed in the former mills were born in other countries as compared with slightly over 1 per cent in the southern mills. "A mill village in the north where many workers are of foreign birth is surprisingly in fluenced by its American setting,' the report states. "Many of the women visited could speak no Eng lish even after living in this coun- dinner, and care for the children. Sometimes there is the additional re sponsibility of live stock. .Even when the father is living at home and working at the mill with the moth er, it is the woman usually who does the housework and attends to the cow, pig or chickens belonging to the family.. Since women , in the mills ofen are engaged in the same work as men and have the same hours, these additional home burdens borne by the women seem hardly fair, and force one to realize that in. the trans ition from home making to Industrial liff women have apparently kept the burdens of the home and , added those of the factory.
