Iron is a fine conductor of heat Therefore, when an oven warms up the hot iron conducts a great deal of the heat to other parts of the stove and radiates It into space. As as bestos is a poor conductor of heat, a lining of that material will save an immense amount of heat. It will ac tually keep the hidden iron part of the oven from becoming hot. As less heat is lost, an oven so lined becomes hot more qnlckly or else on a less amount of gas. STATE BOARD ISSUER WARNING FARMERS URGED TO ENFORCE EFFECTIVE QUARANTINE ON CHOLERA. 60SSIP FROM STATE CAPITAL Items of Interest Gathered from R* liable Sources and Presented in Condensed Form to Our Readers. Western Newspaper Union News Servlc*. Serum, the prevention of hog chol era and the precautions to be taken by farmers is the subject of warnings being emphasized by the state board of directors. Farmers are urged to en force an effective quarantine when cholera breaks out on a farm. It is a mistake, it is claimed, to neglect sani tary precautions and to rely wholly on serum. The serum is useful, not so much to cure sick hogs, as to prevent other animals from taking the disease. The following precautionary meas ures are necessary: "Do not locate hog lots near a public highway, a stream or a railroad. "I)o not allow neighbors or strangers to enter your hog lots and do not go into your neighbors' lots. If you are compelled to pass from one hog lot to another, clean your shoes and wash them with a 3 per cent solution of the compound solution of cresol. “Do not put new stock, either hogs or cattle, in lots with herd already on the farm. "If hog cholera breaks out, separate the sick front the apparently healthy animals and burn the carcasses of all dead hogs on the day of death. "If hog cholera appears on the farm notify the state veterinarian at once. "Serum is furnished from the state agricultural college. The department of agriculture does not distribute serum direct to farmers." Officials Deeply Puzzled. State officials are deeply puzzled over the manner in which the univer sity location proposition should be 1 submitted to voters this fall. The i form meeting with the greatest ap i proval thus far. but which is not alto I gether satisfactory, puts it up in this ' form: "(A). For removal of the university ; to the state farm campus." At the end of this line will be a square ovet which are printed the words. “For re i movai to the state farm." i "(B). For extension of the univer sity on the present campus." At the end of this line wiil be a square ovet which are printed the words, "Against removal to the state farm." The aim is toward simplicity. The officials want to avoid the least con fusion in the matter. The question has been raised with regard to the above form, that if the largest vote is cast "against removal to the state farm." that the proposition B, provid ing "for extension of the present cam pus," might not be held to have car ried. On the other hand, if the squares for the crosses of the voters are la I beled “for removal” and "for exten sion." respectively, the officials be> lieve the proposition will not be as simplv stated as it should, i Aboriginal Implements. Nebraska university museum has j been further enriched by another con signment of aboriginal implements from eastern Nebraska's underground : house ruins from R. F. Gilder of Om aha. which have arrived at the state mueseum.

The shipment of specimens just received at the state museum is the last of the material secured by Mr. Gilder last year while acting as archeologist in the field for the uni- j versitv and is considered a splendid addition to the anthropological collec tions which have made the ins'.itution famous. Duncan McEwan t f Chicago, a rep resentative of the cc-mpany now oper ating a chair and furniture factory at the state penitentiary, has offered the plant for sale to tli* state apon the expiration of the contract under which i: is now operating.
