TO ENLARGE SCOPE SENATE PA8SES HENRY WARE HOUSE MEASURE AFTER THEJAX DODGERS Item* of General Interest Gathered from Reliable Sources Around the State House Western Newspaper Union News Service. The senate committee of the whole has recommended for passage S. F. 145 by Henry of Colfax, designed as an amendment to the present ware house law to enlarge the scope or the law and to permit the recovery on the warehouseman's bond for failure to deliver grain shipments on call. The original law applying tp “eleva tors and warehouses” is amended to include any merchant or grain dealer who accepts grain for storage or al lows grain to be stored in his place of business. Terminal warehouses. exempted from the operation of the law under Henry’s bill, were included in an amendment offered in committee of the whole by Senator Beal of Custer. The bill allows the railway commis sion to call on county attorneys to help prosecute. Pig Raising for Boys and Girls Boys and girls who want to do a little farming "on their own hook” have an opportunity to do so by en rolling in the pig-raising project con ducted by the agricultural extension service of the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. Children who enter this project raise and feed their pigs under the direction of the extension service and keep accurate records of gains, ex penses. and receipts. At the end of the year, the boy or girl who scores the highest with respect to cost and rate of gains, merit of the pig pro duced, and the kind of records kept, will be awarded a prize. Completion of this work may take the place of an examination in agri culture for eighth grade promotion. High school credit may also be given Further particulars may be secured by writing the Extension Service. University Farm. Lincoln. After the Tax Dodgers Mattes of Otoe obtained the ap proval of the committee of the whole for his bill, S. F. 94. directed against tax dodgers, but which Beal said would not hurt the dead but might in jure the innocent living. It provides that estates transferred by deed or will which have escaped taxation shall be put on the tax lists for every year they have been omitted, together with an annual penalty of 50 per cent. He said it did not refer to real estate, only to personal property. He sug gested that real estate need not be included because it was easily found by assessors and if omitted from tax ation the fault is with the assessors. Stilt Contends Sales Illegal Nebraska railroads have appropriat ed state, school and saline lands through the years since 1S96 without j paying either a purchase price or a rental, according to the alleged discov er}' of Land Commissioner G. L. Shum way. According to this finding the Burlington railroad secured the most land belonging to the state under the 1S69 act which gave the roads the right to enter state land but made no provision as to compensation. The law has provided a way for the rail roads to purchase land and the con stitution provides that stale lands j shall not be donated to railroads. Since Land Commissioner Shumwa. finds no record of anything having been paid, he assumes that the rail roads appropriated the land. Bill for Agricultural Research Governor Neville's recommendation for a better system of collecting and disseminating information in regard to Nebraska's agricultural resources met the approval of the lower branch of the legislature at its first session of the week. The Naylor bill, making it incumbent on local assessors to col lect this information and to furnish estimates where they could not secure the exact data, was sent to third read ing. Entries for the coming state high school basketball tournament, which is to be staged in Lincoln. March 7 to 10 under the direction of the athletic department of the university of Ne braska. are still pouring in. The total so far surpasses the mark made by Guy E. Reed, assistant director of the athlete department, who predicted that the full list would include not less than 130 entries. The 1916 Nebraska tournament attracted about 90 entries and the tourney was the biggest event of its sort in the annals of American basketball. Are Making Co-operative Sales County agent work in Nebraska is bearing fruit in a new form—the co operative sale of live stock. Utah in terests have called upon county agents of this state to supply ten carloads of pure-bred cattle and ten carloads of brood sows. This foreign demand is the direct result of co-operation of farmers in county agent work. For some time, farmers associated togeth er in farm bureaus have been pur chasing live stock co-operatively, but this is the first big sale they have | effected. A bill to exempt from paying poll tax the members of the Nebraska mil itary organizations that have been serving on the Mexican border was rescued and placed on the general file in the house. It had been report ed by the revenue and taxation com mittee for indefinite postponement. Beal of Keith made the motion, where upon Chairman Osterman of the com mittee said that the bill had been given full consideration and the vote was unanimous in yie committee but If the house saw fit to place it on tha calendar he would not object. PA8SES "BONE DRY” BILL Drastic Measure Goes—Final Vote Will be Taken at Once. Tuesday morning was set as the hour for the prohibitory enforcement bill, H. R. 793. Following the adop tion of the “bone dry” rider by Con I gress last week the standing commit ; tee on prohibition proceeded to form | ulate amendments to the bill making it as drastically "dry ' as the English language contains words to do so. Not only was every permission of ship | ment into the state cut off. but the ■ person who had "stocked up" in April I in order to have something at hand in ■ his home when the fatal 1st of May ar rived, was automatically created a vio lator of the law and subject to its penalties. At 10 o'clock Tuesday the house commenced consideration of the en forcement bill and in less than two hours completed the measure and or dered it engrossed for third reading. The committee amendments above reviewed were adopted without com ment or debate and the bill was then read section by section and approved without opposition or question. As it now stands the bill is probably as drastic and uncompromising a "bone dry" law as has ever been submitted in this country. The final vote in the house on the bill will in all probability be iaken before the close of the pres ent week. | Passes the Salaries Bill In committee of the whole, the ; house, while refusing to allow an in i c rease in several minor salaries, has taken up and recommended for pass | age the following appropriation-, lor j departments: ; Governor's office ...J 16.S00 ! Secretary of state . 18,000 | Auditor .- 21,480 Treasurer . 18.100 j Land commissioner . 2“.6S0 j Superintendent . 16.280 I Attorney general . 2U2S0 | Supreme court . 105.680 \ District courts . 192.000 Railway commission . 34.200 j Banking board . 55.S00 National Guard . 13.800 Eoard of control . 36.920 Insurance board . 9.0S0 I Irrigation board . 13.480 j Equalization board . 3.200 State prison board . 10.680 Board of Health .. 11.760 Live stock board . 21.760 Game and fish commission .. 12.4S0 Labor bureau . 4.6S0 Printing bureau . 3.000 Library commission . 6.600 •Historical society . 13.280 There were also appropriated out of the fees received hy the following de ! partments the sums stated for em j ployes: State superintendent .$ 1S.4S0 Food commission. 13.120 Fire commission . 19,000 These appropriations are all for the full time of each employe and no war rant is to be drawn for any person who has taken other employment for a compensation paid or promised. As a Patriotic Measure An opportunity for members of the ' legislature to express their patriotic | sentiments has been presented in the I house in a bill introduced by Messrs. Peterson and Regan, providing for the display of the American flag on state, county and municipal buildings. It was laid over in order that an amendment might be prepared taking cars of school flagpoles, which are not always erected on top of the sehoolhouses. One section of this bill forbids the display of any foreign flag j or emblem on a public building, ex cept when a foreigner is being re ceived as the guest of the United j states, the state of Nebraska, or a ! city. Want School of Journalism The Nebraska State Press associa tion wants a school of journalism es tablished at the state university, and : wants it established soon. The asso | ciation said so in resolutions adopted at a meeting held at Lincoln, and at j tended by nearly seventy-five of the ! leading newspaper publishers and ed I itors of the state. Moreover, the as ! sociation wants Prof. M. M. Fogg, the | man who put journalism on the map | in the state university, to be the head i of the school. The resolutions com mend Professor Fogg very highly and suggest that he has done enough for the course now in operation there to deserve the elevation. The state senate has unanimously passed the Norton hill from the house calling a constitutional convention. It was by unanimous vote that the house acted on this bill. Reversing its rec ord of a generation the senate is now unanimously in favor of a constitu tional amendment Prior to the adop tion of the prohibitory amendment by the people last fall the senate had re fused to permit the people to hold a convention to amend or revise the constitution. It is now willing to let the people do as they please with the constitution. Sawyer Saved the Squirrels Sawyer of Lancaster made such a telling plea for the saving of squir rels that Oberlies of Lancaster willing ly consented to the indefinite post ponement of his bill. S. F. 155, a bill to repeal the present law which pro tects squirrels except two months in the year. Oberlies said he introduced the bill for the killing of squirrels at the request of lovers of birds. He said he did not have the affection for squirrels that his colleague did, but he had an affection for his colleague and would not defend the bill. Repair Fund for Capitol With the idea of bringing square ly before the house the question of repairing the old capitol building or levying a special tax to construct a ! new one. the finance committee has incorporated in the maintenance bill an item of 150,000 for repairs on the present structure. Six members of the committee voted to put this in. while two were opposed on the ground that it is a waste of the state’s money to attempt to make the old building habitable for human being*. ' PRESERVE THE FOOD — I j ONE WAY TO BEAT H. C. of L. SAYS SECRETARY HOUSTON. 1 ——— GREATER CROPS ESSENTIAL I — * Declares $700,000,000 Worth of Vict uals Wasted in American Kitch ens Every Twelve Months. Washington.—Greater food crops and the practice of household econo 1 mies were urged by Secretary of Agri culture Houston as measures to help reduce the cost of living. American families, he estimated. In a statement on the food situation, waste in their kitchens annually more than $700, nfin.ftoo worth of edibles. There is nothing in the situation to justify hysteria, however, he declar ed, because there is no real shortage of food in the country. Mr Houston emphasized the im portance of the food cost investiga tion directed by President Wilson and held out hope that increased acreages this year may insure greater food sup plies. Wheat and potatoes, he said, were unusually short last year, but nevertheless there will be enough to supply every nearly norma! need. The food problem cannot be solved, in the secretary's opinion, through price fixing by the federal or state governments, but by "intelligent plan ning and constructive action in con junction with the operation of normal forces." . Prices must be maintained at a cer tain level or farmers will not increase their output, Mr. Houston declared, and either the government or the community must guarantee a reason able price. “Those who are urging that farmers be induced greatly to In crease their acreage beyond that which their own judgment indicates. ! he said, “know very little about the psychology of farmers and the funda mental situation.” China May Enter War. Washington.—Negotiations looking to China’s entrance into the war against the central powers now are in progress at Peking and in all en tente capitals. It is regarded as practically certain that China will sever relations with Germany, and a declaration of war probably will fol low, if the entente will guarantee sat isfactory relaxation of the restric tions imposed upon the eastern em pire by the world powers after the Boxer troubles. China desires to se cure the complete remission of the Boxer indemnities, which total over $30,000,000 a year and continue until 1940. If it entered the war the part which otherwise would be paid to Austria and Germany could be repaid. The entennte powers, on their part, are anxious to have China in the war, not only as a reservoir of men, but as the biggest open trade market aft | er the war. Villa Practically Eliminated. Washington.—Practical elimination of Francisco Villa as a factor in the Mexican situation has been reported to the State department. An Ameri can consul w-as authority for the statement that Villa is practically eliminated' because of his physical condition General Murguia. Carran za's commander, was quoted by an other commander to the same effect The belief is expressed that Villa forces have been pretty well dissipat ed and that the question of peaceful conditions in northern Mexico has largely resolved itself into one of po licing. Shipping Suffers 10 Per Cent. Washington. — Shipping destroyed since the war began, exclusive of war vessels, represents 10 per cent of the world's merchant marine as it existed August 1, 1914. according to figures published by the Journal of Com merce. Construction of warships has offset most of the losses, it was stated. The statistics record the de struction of 2,573 vessels of 4.811,100 gross tons, of which more than half was owned by Great Britain. The next heaviest sufferer has been Nor way, with France third. Italy fourth i and Germany fifth. Papers Cant Print Flag. Des Moines.—The State depart ment of justice has ruled that news papers printing the American flag at the head of their editorial columns or at any other place in the paper are violating the federal law. The statue provides that no flag or repre sentation of a flag shall be printed or stamped on any article of mer chandise. Forger Makes Good. Los Angeles.—Thirteen years ago Charles Russ, arrested on a forgery charge, was put on probation and told to go out and make good. The other day he walked into Judge Willis’ court with credentials to show that he is now a very wealthy land owner. Street Car Killed Woman. Omaha. Neb.—Mrs Alice E. Platz of Florence was killed when a south bound car at State street, Florence, struck her and dragged her on the fender for 100 feet. Prize for Sighting U-Boat. London.—Sir Alfred Yarrow, head of a Scotch ship building company, of fers to pay twenty pounds sterling to any person on board a commercial ves sel who shall first call the attention of the captain of the vessel to the pres ence of a submarine. Newspapers to Suspend Publication. Copenhagen, via London.—All news papers in Hangary, says a dispatch to the Frankfurter Zeitung, must cease publication within a few days. This la the result of lack of paper. Sccifiek Sc Work l . Many Women in this Condition Re gain Health by Taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. ] , _ _ Convincing Proof of This Fact.

Ex cessive amount is caused by eating too much meat and foods that' ferment in stomach. The kidneys, being the filters of the blood, are supposed to separate and throw the poisons out of the system. Weak, tired and overworked kidneys fail to do this, hence the uric acid accu mulates and the urate salts are carried by the blood to the Eolid tissue structure, causing backache, lumbago, rheuma tism, dropsy, drowsiness, and tired feeling. To overcome the trouble is only a matter of toning np the kidneys, and this is best done by a treatment with Anuric, three times a day. Anuric is a recent discovery of Dr. Pierce of Buffalo, N. Y., and can be obtained at any drug store. * Experience taught Doctor Pierce that : Anuric is a more powerful agent than lithia in dissolving uric add, it is then carried out of the system.
