SEARCHING THE RECORD Taking exception to the statement of the Lincoln Journal that he is of the "conventional senatorial set against which the country is apparently in revolt," Even with tha shortened acreage and tha low re sulting from the sever drouth and heat of August, tha yield of ths principal crops is moat imposing, Corn retsins its place as king of fsrm products, with an estimated total yield of 2,875,000,000 bushel. valued at f 1,801,900,000 on September 1, Hay Is second of th great billion-dollar trinity, with a valua for wild and tarns of 11,160,200,000. Cotton comes third, with a total estimated value of $1,004,400,000. To th valua of th cotton will be added finally tha Income from th seed, which may bring tha total worth of tha crop ahov that for hay. Wheat Is set down for a contribution of $720,600,000 to th grand total; oats adds $404,100,000; potatoes bring $3H6, 400,000, and apples $227,200,000; and other yields com In order, making up a grand total of $6,600, 000.000. Thes figures ar of aervlc because they afford a reasonable starting point for calculating tha eondl tion of the greatest of basic industries. They ar well below the showing of th wag peak, but ar the more dependable became they ar down. Some thing approaching stability has been attained in th matter of world consumption, and this will be re flected in the market.

What he succeeds in doing in thus setting up the first and sifond. The total loss sustained by the Nobraitka crop Is estimated at 38,000,000; South Dakota losing 19,000,000 bushels; Kansas, 20,000,- record is to establish himself not as a member of the 000 buxhels, and Iowa 18,000,000 bushels respec "conventional senatorial set," but as a member of the I tivcly. "conventional democratic set," which opposes all things republican whether from progresaive or con servative republican sources. Al! around, the report from th department Is en couraging, for it means that the march of prosperity in the United States is not going to be halted becaus It would seem that nothing but a blind faith In his I of short crops or price that ar below th profit line. ability to fool the people would impel Hitchcock to bring forward his record and make it an issue in "CHIEFEST" AMONG MILLIONS. Nebraska. It means that Hitchcock believes the To be crowned queen of bathing beauties and women of Nebraska have forgotten his opposition to I dubbed "Miss America," as Mary Katherine Camp- woman suffrage; that women and men alike have forgotten his opposition to prohibition and his con nection with "big business," of such intimacy and long standing that the present senior partner of Bryan-Hitchcock, Ltd. has time and again been im pelled to call it to the attention of the people of Nebraska and elsewhere. "I have never been able to keep Hitchcock away from Wall street," said Bryan many times. What constitutes a "progressive" senator? When Hitchcock failed to vote to put a tariff on hides, protecting a product of Nebraska farms and ranches, waa he prompted by a desire to be "pro gressive?" Although requested so to do by the republicans , and democrats alike in the Nebraska state legislature, Hitchcock voted against the emergency tariff rates on agricultural products for the protection of Nebraska's one greatest industry the farm. Was that an act to substantiate his claim that he is a "progressive?" Hitchcock voted "No" to the resolution declaring an end to the war with Germany. Was this in lint with his "progressive" ideas? When the bill to regulate the packing houses, to which Nebraska ships millions of dollars worth of its products, was up in congress Hitchcock did not vote. Was this according to his ideas just being "pro gressive?" Hitchcock did not vote on the Important revenue bill when It was up for consideration. Surely this was more an effort to be "conventionally democratic" than to be "progressive." When the peace treaty with Germany was pre sented for ratification, Hitchcock did not vote, and neither did he vote upon the ratification of the Aus trian peace treaty. This action certainly would hardly be other than that of a "conventional demo crat" opposing all that is republican. He voted "No" when the senate approved the four-power treaty, making possible the carrying out of the arms limitation program and ending the mad race for armed supremacy. Was he thus adding to his "progressive" record, or was it further evidence of his being "conventionally democratic?" When it was proposed to appoint a committee to negotiate for the funding of the foreign debt owed this country, a matter involving the repayment of nearly eleven billions of dollars, Hitchcock was present but did not vote. Was Hitchcock sustaining his claim then that he is a "progressive?" Hitchcock did not vote when it was proposed to bell of Columbus, O.. has been is no mean distinction It does not matter that only 66 competitors were entered in the final lists; every bathing beach In the country had its competition, and from among the millions of fair swimmers, anyone of whom deserves to be called a peach, and "the on altogether lovely," were selected the 66 who were there at the finiiih. So the winner may be considered as fairly representa tive of the whole. She may wear her crown and title with com posure, but she will not be free from the inspection of the most critical of all observers, those of her sex and style, who also wear the one-piece suit and have fun in the waters or on the sands. This jury has not yet reported, and until it does the entire record may not be made up. Another interesting reflection is that Columbus has neither lake nor ocean on which to construct a bathing beach, yet the storied Scioto seema to have afforded sufficient moisture to bring forth a nymph whese attractions won for her the proud distinction of eclipsing those mermaids whose habitat is on one or the other of the great oceans, along: the lakes, or where water is present in abund ance. It is but another victory for the great agricultural empire, of which Ohio is the eastern and Nebraska the western guardian. Something worth while, for this region takes a back seat for none, and even Solomon would have some trouble to decide which of all its myriads of worth while girls is "chiefest." ru. n..a. Thrra .7.

Have you ever written a letter, and changed your mind, and then destroyed the letter? Of course you have, and so has everyone. Sometimes, though, you have mailed that letter before changing your mind. Then you are not happy. Whatever the reason, such a letter is a source of worry. Now comes Dr. Hubert Work, postmaster general, with relief for those who are so troubled. Under his recent ruling it will be possible to get such a letter out of the clutches of Uncle Sam. All the writer has to do is to notify the postmaster in time that such a missive has been mailed, and furnish reasonable proof of having writ ten it. Then it will be returned, and, in cases of emergency, such a letter will be halted en route by a telegram to the railway mail clerk. How much of trouble this will save in the world is beyond estimation, but surely it will help to quiet the qualms of many an uneasy letter writter. Folks may now change their minds with comparative safety, because Dr. Work, continuing the humanizing of the increase the agricultural extension work of the fed- I postoffice, begun so well under Will H.

EUROPE TAKES THE HINT. Recognition of the ideal of disarmament is made in reports to the council of the league of nations by a number of nations. It is significant, however, that the greateat reduction of armament did not originate with th league, but with th International confer ence held in Washington. Great Hritain report to th council a 65 per cent cut in naval tonnage, Japan 69 percent. Italy 49 per cent, and Franc 36 per cent. Ther is no reason to bri eve that this would have been posaible had not the United Stairs, acting Independently of th league of nations called on th power to agrc to a program of economy and armament limitation. American prJur, exerted in a different way, must b accorded soma part of th crtd.t for such military retrenchment as is shown by th seating down f IVUnd's army from 1,000,000 mra to SdO.000.

Wagner: Having returned from the editors' convention at Omnha, we are convinced of the Im portance of these gathering and their helpfulness to the country newspaper. It brings the country and city editor closer together and Increaaea their mutual Interest. The country editors, appreciate Omaha and its organization whlrh helped to put across the best newa paper convention wa have ever at tended. Ifolrlrcge Prograae. E. J. O'Bhea: The Omaha Cham ber of Commerce, the governing board of Ak-Sar-Ben, member of the Stockyards association, the peo ple of Omaha, collectively and In dividually, exhibited a brand of gracioua generosity to the editors of Nebraska seldom met with, and made this occasion one long to be remembered. The warmth of the handclasp, the friendly slap on the shoulder, tho readiness Omaha peo pla display In directing th stranger within their gate, seems to be more ardent each succeeding year and causes the visitor to feel the interest la one of genuine friendliness. Blair n'lot, Don C. Van Deusen: There Is a decidedly better feeling among the newspaper men of the state now than there was a few year ago when an Omaha paper dubbed the j newspaper men "Country Yoke!." It has taken a long time to wear this off, but the meeting last week shows It has finally worn off. I can re member when we had our annual meeting In Omaha and the Chamber of Commerce or business men took no notice of us at all. We even had to furnish our own room In which to meet. Naturally the newspaper folk didn't' fall In love with Omaha after such treatment. Lincoln al ways treated us better and It was even written In our constitution that we meet In Lincoln every other year. When Omaha began to alt up and take notice of us the majority vote has been for Omaha each year. At ono time when tha wet and dry fight was on Omaha didn't want to remain a pnrt of the state of Ne braska and a lot of us didn't care whether It did or not. Even now, Omaha doesn't abide by the laws that govern the balance of the state, but there Is no open antagonism and we all recognlz that there are n lot nf Just as good folks In Omaha as there are anywhere, but sometimes they ara In th minority, as 1 true of most of the other towns In the state. Another evldenc of the changed feeling between Omaha and th newspaper men of the state Is In the j Omnha wat dolrfg fact that the I'ilot and ninny other ! selfish Inti rt ats but pnpara puhlloh th "Notes Hun thi;.tt; wmit benefited Omnha bene Metropolls" furnished us bv the pub- , fjjrd Nebraska.

It la the hop of the publisher of the state that thla attitude of mutual helpfulness will continue to the and thnt Nebraska will attain that place In the firmament of atnte as rightfully as belongs to her. Hick mini K.ntcrprixf. Cyrus Block: Owing to th fact that the attendance of Nebraska ed Itors at th recent meeting In Omaha wa greater than ever before In the history of our association th attl tuda of the people In tha central western part of the state toward Omaha Is about all that could b de sired on the part of Omnha. I feel unite sure that th members of thn Nebraska Press association who uc cepted th Invitation of the Omnha Chamber of Commerce to ba the guests of your city are duly appre ciative and will alway cherish a kindlier feeling toward Nebraska's metropolis and by way of reciproca tion will endeavor to Impart thl feeling to their constituency through their country newspapers, end In so doing will eliminate any prejudice or feeling of Jealousy which might exist In the minds of the people whom they are serving.

I must suite that by her own sdmlsslon sh Is not entitled to the I'gnntur slid 'red, for by respecting a strike breaker or "scab" It Is contrary to ell the principles th unions have fought so fiercely to mali'aln and sh Is a traitor to a Just causa, her own best interests and thoaa of tha "wnse earner's children." The strikers wnnt mora than bread and writer for their children, as well as for tha neighbors' babies not only for today, hut for msny daya to come and why should any woman ba willing for her man to sell himself for a few paltry dollars a a strikebreaker? We all hold that every man owes much to his family and ther I no respect for tha mn who Is not am bitious nor farslghted enough to provid for their welfare, but why criticize th unions when th strik ers are only trying to Insure a liv ing for their families? We are willing (If necessary) to endure hirrtshlps rather than tol erate hardships brought about by the rnllroadt' enforced layoff dur ing .the winter months, and did th"sa railroads which Tour "respect ed" strikebreakers are now helping, care If the workman's babies had even bread? The unions are not allowing th6 babies to suffer hunger, so there is no excuse, for your defense of the "scab" nnd If you hnve Joined fores with the wrong side, may Ood pity you.

Yoti sho"M do so for both the baking and broiling oven. Ten minutes is an average al lowancc for tha baking oven nd five minutes for the broiling oven. This method involves no waste of y-as, because If food Is placed in a cold oven, the cooking will take just so much longer; be-s-des, tho results will not be so good. If the recioe calls for a moderate oven, reduce the flame one-half at the end of ten min utes. For a quirk oven, keep burners lifrhted during all cr nearly all the baking. Also bpar in mind that it ! better to boke in tin pans instead of sheet iron or agate pans. The Iron absorbs the heat and is more liable to burn the contents at the bottom and sides before the baking is done. You may not have noticed this in using the coal range, but the heat of the gas range is much more intenss and direct. If there is anything about your gas appliances thnt you do not understand, your gas man will be glad to instruct you. He wants you to get the best re sults from the gas you use.
