Advance to Continue, Omaha Grain
Hen. Believe Farmers Are
Holding Grain. , .
Continued advances in the price
of wheat, which Tuesday rose 12 to
11 cents above the lowest day's quo
tation this year 38 to 40 cents, in
August has added more than seven
million dollars value to the 75 mil
lion bushels of wheat stored in Ne
braska. Farmers in Nebraska now have ap
proximately 40 million bushels of
wheat stored on their farms, the of
fice of A. E. Anderson, federal and
state crop statistician at Lincoln, re
ports. Nearly 20 million bushels is stored
at Omaha. Lincoln and Fremont ele
'vators have approximately 10 mil
lion, while fire million bushels more
Is stored in country elevators.
"But the price of wheat is going
higher." is a common prediction
around -the Omaha Grain Exchange.
Predicts 75 Cents.
"Personally, I expect it to go to
75 cents thi3 winter," declared J. L.
Welsh of the Butler-Welsh Grain
.company. "The Nebraska farmer
' hasn't been stampeded, into shipping
his grain to market. He still feels
that the cost of production is beyond
;what the market offers today. Wheat
must pass .0 cents before he will
begin to figure that he will make
money by selling. Right now he pre
fers to hold his crop.
Mr. Welsh said he. based this state
ment on reports from the company's
10 branch offices which indicated an
unusually small movement of farm
grain to market in the past week in
response to the price rise.
Great Possibilities.
If this bullish prediction should
come true and there should be a 30
cent rise in price, the 40 million
bushels held by the farmer would
be worth 12 million dollars more
than they were in August, while the
total value of all wheat in the state
would rise 25 million dollars above
the August total.
What this should mean to gen
eral business in Nebraska should be
apparent even, to a pessimist, grain
men say.
Applied on a nationwide scale,
where the visible supply of wheat
this week was 225,078,000 bushels,
the bullish swing of the market be-
S comes still more significant, It Is
pointed out.
Cash wheat prices rose in Omaha
1 to 2 cents Tuesday. This was a
response to the Jump in the futures
market influenced by an unconfirmed
report that the federal farm board
has sold from 20 to 50 million bush
els to France, grain men explained.
On Substantial Ground.
But the general upward trend is
based on more substantial ground, it
is said. More confidence has been
expressed in heavier buying for in
vestment, on a pickup in the export
demand, evidence of determination
of farmers to hold the "good old
wheat in the bin" until prices mend.
Most of the farm-stored wheat is
held by the more prosperous fanners
in central and eastern Nebraska who
are not likely to be forced to dump
their bushelage until they are good
and ready. As observers say: "It is
in the hands of farmers who can af
ford to hold it."
AWARDS MADE IN CONTEST
Last spring Henry Jasper, the lo
cal florist, decided to offer several
prizes to the pupils in the grades
from 4th to 6th in the public schools.

After investigating the possibil
ities of using- wheat as human food,
Miss Margaret Osborne of the. Ex
tension Service at the agricultural
college says the grain Is one of the
cheapest sources of energy from tha
standpoint of nutrition.
Wheat is a good source of protein
and with the addition of meat, milk
or cheese may be depended upon to
provide an adequate supply of pro
tein in the diet. Wheat bran not only
furnishes roughage but it also con
tains valuable mineral salts, partic
ularly iron and phosphorus. In addi
tion, wheat bran is a dependable
source of vitemin B.
In using the wheat for human con
sumption the whole grain can be
cooked or the grain can be ground
and used as cracked wheat. The
cooking time for cracked or coarsely
ground wheat is longer than for
finely ground commercial cereals but
the flavor is pleasing.
Miss Osborne has worked out sev
eral recipes showing different ways
to use wheat as food. In testing the
recipes. Miss Osborne explains that
the cracked wheat used was cracked
to about the size of corn meal. The
wheat was crushed, then passed In
succession over sieves and then Thru
a 12 mesh miller's sieve. These re
cipes may be had by writing or call
ing at the Farm Bureau office.

following recipe:
Thick slice of ham

Vx cup bread crumbs
1 teaspoon prepared mustard

inch thick. Trim off the rind and
the lean edge. Fry out a piece of
the fat In a seavy skillet. Brown the
ham on both sides and transfer it to
a shallow baking dish. Pour off the
fat from the pan drippings and with
the remainder in the skillet mix the
sugar, bread crums, mustard and
pineapple juice. Cover the ham with
this mixture and bake without a lid
in a very moderate oven (300 de
gree F.) for about one hour. Baste
the ham occasionally.
Abcut 15 minutes after the ham
is put into the oven, arrange the
pineapple slices, cut In halves. In an
other baking dish, and pour over
them some of the liquid from the
ham. Bake the pineapple slowly at
300 degrees F. for about 45 minutes.

tion to a Taken
Falls City, Neb., Oct- t7. County
Attorney J. H. Falloon tonight an
nounced he had solved the myster
ious shooting story of 17-year-old
llert Dahike of Humboldt through a
complete confession from the youth.
Falloon said extensive question
of the youth brought admission that
Dahike had written the threatening
letters to himself and to his girl
friend, Lavonna fahnherr, IS, Hum
boldt, and that be himself had shot
up his automobile with a revolver.
After obtaining additional letters,
purporting to have been written by
some unknown' person styled "The
Mink," the county attorney said he
was convinced that Dahike was the
author. Falloon said the letters to
Lavonna were highly complimentary
to young Dahike.
Falloon also said the letters to the
girl showed the writer's affection for
the girl, while letters to Dahike
threatened both the boy and the girl.
The county attorney said tracing
of the gun, reputedly found near the
spot where the youth said he was
attacked last Sunday night, brought
the solution. He found Dahike had
bought the gun in Auburn last
Thursday.
After admitting that he fired sev
eral bullets into his sedan, Falloon
said Dahike declined to give any rea
son for his act, but authorities be
lieved it was done to Impress the
girl. The authorities said It is un
likely that any action will be taken
against Dahike. World-Herald.

A TRUE ST02T
Bob Walling of Plattsmouth is one
of those men who would rather -see
a football game than eat. And Bob
likes to eat. When Crelghton played
Washington he: was all set to do a
little grandstand quarterbacking on
the 60-yard line. Then came a din
ner invitation, and it looked like Bob
would have to run the Bluejay team
by remote control. .
Bob went out to dine. The radio
was tuned in on the game. Bob ate
chicken while the Bluejays ate up
the yards. The Jsys scored one touch
down. Then another. " Bob could
Stand It no longer.' When the first
period ended, he mumbled something
about forgetting to feed the cat, ex
cused himself,, jumped into bis car,
and was In the Crelghton stadium
