This project is very similar in
every respect to the Julrsburg,

completed at a cost of $20 an Sere
about M years ago.
According to government statistics.
180,000 acre feet of winter storage
water is available for . use on this
project, but it is now believed that
about onr-half of that amount will
be all that will be required.

Haka Good Bcport.
St. Edward A large voluma ef busi
ness and a good profit were shown by tha
Farmera' Union Co-operative association
here In the fiscal year closing June 30.
In tha produce department, which han
dles cream, butter, poultry and eggs, th
volume (or the year waa 134,186.75, with
a net profit of (1,111.56. The grain and
merchandise volume waa 1138, 6S3.il,
handled at m net profit of 2, 165.43. The
elevator received and shipped 301,604
bushsls of grain, which, waa handled at a
coat of only l.S cent a bushel, said to be
a very low figure. Twenty-live per icent
of the net earnings will ba set aside for
reserve, and the balance will ba used to
pay dividends. The association now has
sufficient reserve capital, the officers
atate, to make It almst Independent of
borrowed money.
Pay Insurance Promptly.
Concord Frank Reynolds, a farmer of
this community, thlnka ha holds the rec
ord In having an Insurance claim paid
promptly. He suffered a loss by fire at
In the evening of August 1. The loss
waa reported to the locar adjustor of the
Farmers' Union Co-operative Insurance
company of Nebraska, In which the prop
erty was Insured, and tha adjuster took It
up with th head office in Omaha. A
check for 1485, covering the loss in full,
waa mailed at 4:30 p. m. on August 3.
Btducee Operating Coat.
Wisner Operating costs In tha Farm
era' union store of this place have been
reduced from 10 pe; cent of sales two
years ago to 10 per cent at the present
time. The result la attributed to care
ful accounting, which ahowed where costs
could be reduced in proportion to vol
ume. In .th six months ending Juno 30,
thia store had total salea of $89,978.48,
and showed net profits of $2,(26.61. The
Wisner Farmers' union store la said to ba
one of th largest co-operative stores In
the state. On the marketing aide It han
dles) cream, butter, poultry and eggs, and
on the merchandise side groceries, dry
goods, boots and shoes, hardware, farm
Implements, plumbing supplies, pumps
and windmills. The association employs
men to do plumbing, make wells, repair
pumps and set up windmill.
Vnlqoe Lose Sharing.
Tutan By sharing losses on a per
centage basis the Farmers' Union Co
operative association here has done
something which ia unique In co-operative
affair. At the close of the fiscal
year last January, the association had a
deficit of 13,790.46. At the annual meet
ing the officers explained that this ap
parent loss waa due to buying grain and
selling merchandise on narrow margins,
and that what appeared on the books of
the association aa a loss waa In the pock
eta of the members. The meeting voted,
therefore, to make good the deficit by
an assessment In proportion to patronage.
In the first six months of this year the
asoclaed showed a ne profl ot $1,011.34.
Manager Reelgne.
Orchard S. B. Whltmore. manager of
the Farmers' Union Co-operative associa
tion alnce It was started, has resigned to
engage in business for himself In Wayne.

first seven months of this year the as
sociation had a turnover of 1130.000. In
addition to operating an elevator, the as
sociation has a general store and lumber
yard, and sells coal and farnrimplementa.

Blue Springs A profit of per cent ra
grain volume of HS.000 and a mer
chandise volume of $J1,08 was msda by

profit reduces the deficit of 11,30 carried
ever from last year down to S1.10. Th
company operates an elevator and gen
eral store, under one corporation, but
with separate managers. This Is one of
the earliest farmera' elevators In the

poultry flocks have an Inadequate sup
ply of shade. This leads to hens being
overcome by heat after which they will
retire Into corners to die and the cause
of death Is laid to some other factor. The
county agent advises chicken raisers to
oonstruct frames covered with burlap for
shade on farms where there la insuffi
cient sun shelter. Some form of shade,
he saya, aids materially In keeping up
the summer egg production and also Is said
to be Important in postponing the moult

Improved Strains of "Wheat
Greatly Increase Yield
Lincoln If everv farmer in Ne
braska grew an improved strain of
winter wheat, the extra wheat pro
duced would be worth in the' neigh
borhood of ?16,(X)0,000, according to
experts at the University ot NebraS'
ka agricultural college. These im
uroved strains have constantly out
yielded the common wheat in the
ncinhborhood of four bushels per
acre, they declare, it rapiaiy in
creases the cost of producing wheat
to put in extra work on the seedbed
and often this does not pay, it is
reported. 7 few dollars, however,
will Dav the extra cost of better
seed wheat and this will turnish seed
for the future.

By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Omaha Bsc Lrur4 Wire.
Chicago, Aug. 5. Buying power
gave out in the wheat market today,
While there was a fair early advance
in September on a continuation of
short covering, the finish was about
the low point. There were net losses
of 1 3-82 l-8c. Other grains were
influenced by the action of wheat.
Corn closed at losses of 5-8lc,
while oats were off l-25-8c, and
rye, 1 l-4(a)2c.
All grains sold at a new low for
the season during the last week.
Speculative buying was not sufficient
to absorb the hedges without price
recessions. Wheat closed with net
losses of 1 1-8(3)3 l-4c. while corn was
off JfS'l 3-8c; oats, 1 1-41 l-2c, and
rye, 4 l-8(n'5c. Lard finished with a
loss of 471-Z5Jc and short ribs,
80c.

Corn and oats are completely under the
domination of wheat. There was UMle In
the situation to cause any material buying
and with Increased hedging pressure oats
sold down to within a fraction ef the
lowest figures of tha season. Bulk cf the
trade was of a local character. Crop re
ports on corn were generally favorable
except from parts of South Dakota and
Minnesota, where rain Is needed.
While there was no material pressure
on rye. the undertone was easier In sym

Tha longer course of events will de-
