ja score of guests and resulted in dam
jagc, mostly by smoke and water, esti
i mated at 5C3.000. Nobody was in
jured. Firemen had the blaze under

! among old mattresses.
Chicago. Secretary of the Interior
Ickes charged the republican party
had repaid the "tremendous" elec
tion services rendered it by Amer
ican Negroes by permitting their eco
nomic exploitation between cam
paigns. "From the time cf the Civil war
until 1932 the republican party de
liberately and in cold blood exploit
ed the Negro," the cabinet member
said in an uddres3 prepared for de
livery at the 20th anniversary meet
ing of the Chicago Urban league.
"During political campaigns the
republicans were the solicitous
friend3 of the race," he continued,
"but between campaigns it was a dif
ferent matter; then the economic ex
ploiter could have his will of the Ne
gro." These "economic exploiters,"
he said, "generally speaking, have
been members of the republican
party."
FIRST ACT ONE OF CONTRIBUTION

he contributed 5 5 to the fund to pay
off indebtedness on the community
building and an additional $1 for the
purchase of equipment for the Jun
ior Drum Corps. It is not required
that the president make any personal
contributions, but Mr. Bowman de
clared he wanted to do so, and the
money was gratefully received ana
will be used for the purposes desig-
! natc-d.

Acnte Shortage
of Grain Feeds
Seen for State
Early Corn Patch, Barley, 0at3 end
Milht are Suggested by Pi-of.
Gramlich, cf Lincoln.
"Nebraska liestocfc feeders are
going to face a serious feed grain
problem next summer until a new
ercp cf corn can be harvested," says
Prof. H. J. Gramlich or the agricul
tural college. An unusually large
percentage of corn is cf low quality
now. This is shown by the fact that
out of 3,145 cars graded in Chicago
during December only fourteen cars
I graded No. 2. Nearly two-thirds
jwent in the No. 5 class.
"State and federal statistics indi
cate that we have 50 per cent more
lambs cn feed than a year ago and
twite as many cattle. Hog numbers
are down. However, the number cf
spring pi.is will be materially above
the crop of 1935, and these will be
consuming considerable grain long
before new torn is available unlets a
considerable quantity of early crops
can be produced.
"The situation is doubly acute be
cause we have had two light corn
years. Only 112 million buehel3 were
gathered while normally we would
have harvested an annual crop of
22 5 million bushels, or a total of 4 50
million. In a big feeding state like
Nebraska, it would be impossible to
go on indefinitely with 25 per cent
Df the usual amount of corn.
"There are several alternatives
which might help the livestock man
solve his summer problem. They in
clude planting of a patch of ninety
day corn early in order to have some
new corn at earliest possible date,
sowing barley, which normally Is
harvested soon after July 4 and can
be available for feeding by middle of
month. Barley when ground makes
very good corn substitutes. Fed with
cracked corn, results should be satis
factory as where a - straight corn
ration is used.
"Sow considerable oats acreage.
Should they mature into a crop of
good quality, the grain could be used
to advantage in starting lambs and
cattle on feed, likewise as part of
ration for sows and growing pigs
Oats were also splendid feed for
horses. ' :
"In southwestern Nebraska, where
proso or hog millet does well, a con
siderable acreage of this could be
planted. Put in early, it should bo
available by midsummer as it is a
short season crop. Ground hog mil
let has been used at the Akron, Colo.,
substation for fattening hogs and
has proven fully equal to corn. It
has been used considerably as part of
fattening cattle ration and when fed
ground has proven satisfactory, es
pecially where mixed with other
grains or ground alfalfa.
"Permit fall sown rye to mature
for harvest as grain crop for summer
feeding purposes. At the college, we
not infrequently pasture rye during
early spring months and then permit
the crop to imature. We have usually
harvested 12 to IS bushels of grain
per acre in this manner. Should the
spring be a wet one and the rye not
be needed for pasture, it would prob
ably make a materially larger yield
than otherwise."

ed butcher at the Ellis Mickle homo
Tuesday.
It is reported that a former busi
ness man of Alvo, John Woods, has
sold his grocery store at Elmwood,
where he has been in business for a
couple of years.
Virgil Woods, a Bon of Mr. and
Mrs. John Woods, left recently for
Fremont, where he and Stanley
Woods are operating a fine new Sin
clair filling station.
A crew of men assisted the snow
plow Friday and opened the road
east of Alvo. This road has been
closed for several weeks, probably for
a longer 'period of time than any
other In this vicinity.
The Alvo firemen answered a fire
call Friday at the John Elliott gar
age behind the hardware store. The
fire, however, was soon extinguished,
and little damage was reported.
A number from here went to Lin
coln Saturday evening to hear the
address by Governor Landon, of Kan
sas, who is a potential candidate for
the presidency on the republican

Church services were held at the

the coal shortage that the people of

tion is not as serious as it was first
thought to be. She is at the Bryan
Memorial hospital in Lincoln and at
last reports it was thought no opera
tion would be necessary.
Friends were indeed very sorry to
learn that Mrs. Swanson's mother
was not so well on Wednesday. It was
necessary to move Mrs. Walstrom
from the Lord Lister hospital to the
Nicholas-Senn hospital during the

ed her to become weakened.

Crews of men continue to aid with
snow shovels in opening roads in this
vicinity. Most of the roads have now
been cleared sufficiently to permit of
traffic on them. As a result, school
was re-opened last Wednesday and
the teachers and students resumed
their work and studies once more.
It is hoped that the school work
can now continue uninterrupted to
the end of the term. However, people
can truly be thankful tbat no trage
dies resulted because of the snow
bound condition and extreme cold cf
the past several weeks.
With the sun sliming so LrisMiy
and the weather sj warm as it is at
the time this is written, it is hard
to believe that only a couple of weeks
ago everything was so different.
