Baking 'Luck'
"There is no such thing as 'cook
ing luck. " declares Mrs. Grace Davis,
nationally known cooking school ex
pert. "All good cooking and baking
is the result of using only the best
of materials. It is no economy to use
inferior ingredients because they are
cheaper, for then your results are
also second grade. I always insist on
VICTOR FLOUR for my demonstra
tions. I cannot risk a failure, and
I'm always sure of success when
using Victor. Even for the most deli
cate angel food cakes I use -Victor,
and know it will be perfect."
Many women believe it is neces
sary to buy special cake flours for
baking angel food, but that is be
cause they haven't tried Victor. Af
ter several years of demonstrating
the making of this most delicate of
cakes, Mrs. Davis insists that angel
food made from Victor Flour stays
moist longer, is just as fine, and much
less expensive. By using Victor Flour
you need buy only the one sack for
bcth your bread and cakes.
Try a sack today. Victor Flour is
made by The Crete Mills of Crete,
Nebraska, whose reputation for good
flour has grown steadily for 64 years.
You can buy it at all Better Grocers
in riattsmouth.
ANCIENT VILLAGE DUG UP
DIES OF RUNAWAY INJURIES
Albion, Neb. Roy Williamson, 43,
died Thursday afternoon five hours
after being dragged 200 yards be
neath a corn cultivator. Rev. Oscar
Creech, who was with Williamson
on his farm at the time of the acci
dent, freed him from the mcaiiine,
called help and had him brought to
a hospital here.
An unruly team broke the tongue
of the two row cultivator William
son was driving and threw him be
neath it. Then the Jiorses galloped
to a fenceewe.re,e,petbjem fen on
the machine "Creech lifted both the
horse and the cultivator off William
son. The miinster preaches in the
Baptist church here and, has a gar
den plot on the Williamson farm. He
wa3 offering to help cultivate in ap
preciation for use of the garden.
Besides Mrs. Williamson, the sur
vivors are a daughter, Margaret, 16,
and cons, Emroy, 13 and Duanc, 6.
Ilartington, Neb. Evidences of an
ancient Indian trible whose living
conditions were superior to those of
the western pioneers, have been un
earthed on a bluff near St. Helena
by a group of University of Nebraska
students.
Residents of tliia extinct Indian
village which is being brought to
light had more comforts, better built
homes and a greater variety of tools
and impliments with which to work
than most of the white settlers which
"brought civilization" to this region.
according to Prcf. Earl Bell, leader of
the expedition.
Diccovery of the site is described
by Bell a3 one of the most important
in the entire middlewest. He is of the
opinion that the finding in Cedar
county may have a sufficiently far-
reaching effect to alter archaelogical
terminology. He believes the dis
coveries near here may prove a link
which will connect ancient Indian
civilizations.
Excavations have been carried to
a depth of four feet in an area 23
by 26 feet. Pieces of charred corn
cob were found in an old fire pit. A
carved bone fishhook, curved to form
a perfect hook and having a small
groove at the shank where the line
was fastened was another find. Evi
dences that the tribe appreciated
personal adornment included a buckle
made cf bone and a pendant, carved
from Missouri river shells.
In all, Professor Bell has disclosed,
he expects to excavate two or three
houses of the village. Several speci
mens unearthed here have 'been re
moved to the Nebraska university
museum. Residents of St. Helena are
considering restoring one of the In
dian houses to make a site of historic
value similar to that of the Wiseman
memorial at Wynot. The old village
is located on land owned by William
Schulte, -of St.' Helen'a. - '

Rye Races Up
with Wheat Just
Tagging Along
Black Bread Grain' Hits the Dollar
Per Bushel Mark During
Wild Trading.
Chicago. Rye, the "black bread
grain," ran wild Tuesday, soaring
almost eleven cents a bushel before
its advance was checked. It rose more
than 8 cents Monday. Running in
terference for the dashing cereal was
the official crop estimate Monday,
indicating a yield below domestic re
quirements and the belief of brok
ers that processing taxes on wheat
would lead to greater consumption
of rye products.
Two deliveries of the "little bro
ther" of wheat, September and De
cember, smashed thru to a dollar a
bushel or better, a gain of almost 20
cents a bushel since Saturday. De
cember delivery reached a peak oi
$1.04. September Just touched the
dollar mark. So great was the de
mand for rye that all other grains
were, pulled up with it. Wheat scored
maximum gains of almost 5 cents a
bushel with all deliveries running to
new highs for the season. May wheat
climbed to $1.14 a bushel and closed
at $1.13 5-8. Corn closed, with net
gains of almost 3 cents a bushel with
May at 77 5-8.
Trading in all of the pits except
oats was at a frenzied pace. Short
sellers were punished severely. Offi
cial crop estimates indicated the
smallest wheat crop in forty years
with the July 1 estimates showing a
probable wheat crop of around 49 6
million bushels or about 150 million
bushels less than the annual domes
tic requirements. The December rye
delivery closed at $1.02 or 2 cents
below the peak of $1.04. State Journal.

From Wednesday's Daily
The BREX team in the National
kittenball league, last evening moved
nearer the league leadership when
they turned back the Fetzer Shoe
Co. team, which has been one of the
league leaders. The shop team had
the score of 11 to 6 against their
opponents.
The game was filled with more
than usual argument and dispute and
which caused the last inning to be
played in a growing dusk, but as
the winners bad their final bats it
was possible to eliminate the last half
inning of the contest.
The Fetzers were scoreless in their
opening half inning while the BREX
took a gain of two runs, with two
down, two errors permitted men on
bases and the bingle of Louie Svo
boda scored them.
In the second the shoemen were
able to add three runs to take)a tem
porary lead, hitting by Ryan, Shafer,
McClanahan and Hartford bringing
in the runs. The BREX came back
in their half of the inning with three
also to make a five to three lead, with
Thompson, 'Skalak' and March" being
the stickers.
The Fetzers scored one in the third
and two in the sixth frame of the
game, but could not overcome the
lead that the shopmen had acquired.
The BREX in the fourth inning
made four scores to take a safe lead
that was never seriously threatened,
three of the runs being made after
two of the BREX had retired, cosily
errors and hits by Gradoville and
Svoboda making possible the scoring.
The tabulated score of the game
