■ Peteet Pleased With Gain Made by Co-Operatives I'arm Bureau Director Sees Success for Wheat Growers in Commodity Market ing Plan. Special Dispatch to The Omaha Bee. Lincoln, July 29.—Walton Peteet of Chicago, director of co-operative marketing of the American Farm Bureau federation, has returned from a week’s trip through Nebraska un d?r the auspices of the Nebraska Farm Bureau federation, accompan ied by C. B. Steward, secretary of the state organization. Mr. Peteet ad dressed meetings of farmers and busi ness men and held marketing confer ences with leaders at Lincoln. Be atrice, Kearney, Odessa, Battle Creek, Chadron and ScottsblufT. Be fore leaving the state Mr. Peteet said: “After a week's visit to many sec tions of Nebraska and conferences with representative farmers, farm leaders, agricultural college officials end business men. I am convinced that Nebraska is ready for a great forward movement in co-operative marketing. Everywhere I , found recognition by farmers of the truth that many of the ills from which they are now suffering are economic in character and can he cured only by the application of economic reme dies. "I have found that Nebraska farm ers are doing a lot of hard and clear thinking about their problems and that they are abreast of the times in their readiness to accept and apply the sound principles of true com modity co-operative marketing in sell ing their crops. They have learned that neither the speculator nor the small, isolated and detached co-opera tive association can or will do all that needs to be done for them. They are asking why, if cotton farmers in a dozen states can co-operatively finance and market in an orderly way their great staple crop, the grain farmer cannot do the same with grain? "The alfalfa growers around Kear ney and Odessa have asked the Ne braska Farm Bureau federation to work out a plan for marketing hay r n a commodity basis and present them to a district meeting to be held in September. "That potato growers in the Platte valley around Scottsbluff and extend ing over Into Wyoming, have asked the state and national farm bureau to aid them In organizing in line with the national plan adopted by potato growers from Maine to California. “The sugar beet growers of Ne braska snd Wyoming have asked the American Farm bureau to call a meeting of all the western beet grow ing states parly this fall to consider the application of the principles of commodity marketing to their selling problems. “I am Impressed by the distinctly friendly attitude of Nebraska busi ness men towards this movement. They, also, have been doing some thinking and investigating and have . found that wherever commodity mar keting has been established it has brought profit to business men as well as to farmers." Soybean Crop Extensive in South Dakota County Tyndall, S. D., July 29. — Bon Homme county is carrying on an ex tensive soybean growing project this year, according to County Agent Monroe, who is urging the growers to produce more seed. All growers of soybean are urged by the county agent to use as much South Dakota grown seed as could be obtained as this kind is best suited to state con ditions. "The largest number of growers are using Manchu,” Mr. Monroe said, "but such kinds as Ito San, Man churia. and Mandarin are also planted. Tins selection of varieties gives Bon Homme county an excel lent. opportunity to study varieties ond make some determination as to those kinds best suited for the country. "The growing of soybeans fits in well with the corn crop and hog raising of the country and it also helps to take care of the chinch bug pest slnc4 these insects do not bother the soybean crop.

Lincoln, July 29.—The lamb crop saved In the western range states during the lambing season of 1923 Is estimated at 77 per cent of the ewes on hand January 1, 1923, according to the division of crop and livestock estimates of the United States De partment of Agriculture. This esti mate is based upon reports from state representatives of the department in all of these states, whose information was derived from special Investiga tions and from reports direct from producers. “Because of lack of comparable data no exact comparison can be made with last year's crop,” the re port said. “However, in most of these states all conditions were much more favorable this year than last. Kwes entered the winter in strong condition, winter feed was ample and winter weather not severe; weather conditions during lambing was gen erally very favorable with only a few storms of short duration. While grass was somewhat late in starting this spring, ample moisture produced abundant spring and summer range. Losses of lambs have been light.’’ U. S.

NeaIr i father Is considering a business trip fol Ills firm to South America anil the Weal Indlrs, Neale, since his graduation, ll anxious to secure a job anil be self-sup porting. •‘I’ve traced a plank from the tree to tidewater, ineh by inch, my note book in my hand, wetting down every sixteenth of a cent per board foot that it cost til we sold it to the retail dealer, watching it as if It were the prince royal of a reigning house and I the secret service man set to keep track of him! I've covered reams of paper figuring out the cost of the office work of getting that plank sold —extra office work, you know, not ordinary overhead—and, by heck, I don’t see how they've ever managed to run their old business a minute, the haphazard way they've been go ing at it! Nobody knew anything, not all of anything! I seem to have been marking time, but just you wait till I get out of the office and into the real game. I know more about some things than any of the buyers, even the oldtimers.” "Well, there must be a big profit in business or they wouldn't be able to conduct it that loose way,” said Martha. "Oh, tke profits are big, all right,” Neale concurred. "Old man Gates has more cash than he knows what to do with. And not one of his grand children amounts to a whoop. When his son, the one who's our general manager now, retires, there won't be a Gates left in the Gates Humber company.” "They won't mind,” said Martha. "You bet your life they won’t mind,” said Neale. “Far from it! Most likely they’ve hardly heard the name of it. They’re nil living in Eu rope now, buying villas and things out of the money the company makes. Our Mr. Gates never sees any of his family except when he takes a vaca tion and goes to Florence or England. A11 they want out of the lumber busi ness is a fat wad of easy money.” ' That's not right,” said Martha sud denly. "That's not right." “It's not right if getting something for nothing is wrong,” Neale agreed casually. “But what are you going to do about it? There you are. That's the way things go." Martha made no answer. There was a little silence. Then she said: ''All that account keeping, that detail work—it doesn't seem so terribly in teresting to me, Neale. Haven't you found it awfully dull sometimes?'' Neale rolled over and sat up with an effect of entering again Into ac tive and energetic life. “Well. I might have.” he said finally. "But you know, Martha, that I have a special reason for wanting to get on quick in business, and I’ve been mighty glad enough to grab hold of any end that was handy.” He smiled at her confidently. “All a fellow needs in the business world is a crack in the wall to get his toes into for a start. I've got my crack. Now you just watch me climb!” It was perfectly understood between them what he was climbing to reach. CHAPTER XXXII. Father had written from Caracas that mother whs taking the next boat back to New York because she need ed a lot of dental work done and hadn't any confidence In Venezuelan dentists, hut when Neale met mother at the dock she told him at once, laughingly, that the dental work was only an excuse, and that she had come to have a visit with her son. She had added with a whimsical de fiance that, such being the fact, she had no intention of putting up the usual Crittenden bluff of something different. "I'm not a Crittenden.” she told Neale gayly in the cab on the way to the hotel, "though I married into the family so young! And now that I've worn a mantilla, w.lh a rose In my hair, I'm not going to try any longer to pretend that I am." Neale looked at her. admiring her now quite distlnguisl.od aYpearance, hut feeling a little alarm at hpr tone. She sounded almost disturbingly elec tric. "I've come up to have a real New York spree with my big son and his nice girl, now that he has conde scended to let us know he has a nice g.rl." she told him. her smiling eyes at once tender and a little mocking. "You can afford it. can't you, since your last raise?" "Oh, I i-an afford anything in rea son." "Your father says they tell him you're getting on splendidly.” • "They never let on as much to me,” said Neale dryly, "though they are treating me very white as to pay.” They were at the hotel door now, where mother made arrangements for a stay of a month. “Dental work takes so long." she told Neale gravely In the elevator, making him laugh outright. Hhe looked very well pleased at this, and after they were inside her room, stood up on tiptoes and gave him another kiss. He had never entirely recovered from his father's chance remark that mother had been only 20 when she married. Hhe must have been about ns old ns he was now when he first began lo remember her. Just a girl— nnd she had seemed older to him then than now He told her this as he unstrapped her valise. “You seem younger to me every time I see you lots younger now than when I was 6 or 7 years old." Hhe laughed out. "I was s child myself when you were (1 or 7." HJn turned grave for a moment. "If I had you to bring up, now that I am a really grown person with a personal ily of my own and some experience of the world, I'd do It very different ly. I'd make a better Job of It.” "You made a good enough Job,” he protested mildly. "How can you look at me nnd think you could have done any better?" Hhe atopped her unpacking to laugh. "It Just spoils a person for other forms of Joking to live with one of you dry Crittendens Other pen pie's humor seems so flamboyant. I like the Crittendens " she pronounced Judicially, "though I did waste about 20 years of my young Ufa trying to make myself Into one. I'm glad you're one. But It you try to make Martha Into one—” "Martha's one already,” he told her triumphantly. "We're exactly alike —the way ws think and do things. That's why we get on so well to gether.” At this Neale's mother looked at him so hard thatrhe felt a little annoyed, and turned* the talk back to Its earlier channel. ‘‘How else would you have brought me up. I'd like to know?” “I'd have taken dynamite to you,” she Informed him briskly. “Dynamite?” “Oh, you don't understand. And I dare say It would have been too early anyhow. You'll probably get your share of dynamite when your turn comes.” She changed the subject: “How's business? Seriously!” Seriously he told her of the results of his promotion six months before from the "Intelligence bureau,” as he called lt^ to the real business of life, to buying and selling. "The only real money Is in that," he told her, warm ing as he spoke. "All those other Jobs, office Jobs, don’t lead you any where. Buying and selling, especially selling, that's where you get ahead. I'm earning twice what I did, and by this time next year I’ll be doing twice what I’m doing now. I may soon be able to do a little on the side, on my own hook, pick up something good and dispose of It well. Grandfather is sure I can. He may have some tips for me later on. Grandfather Is a wise old scout." Mother laid some underwear away in a drawer. As she shut it, she asked casually: “Do you read any Emerson nowadays, Neale?" How in the world did mother know he had ever read Emerson? "No, I (fcn't," he said. She noted the shortness of his tone with raised eyebrows, and began to hang up her dresses in the closet. One evening, Martha perched on the arm of Neale’s chair, the quiet air about them crackling and ting ling with the high-tension current, Martha caught and grasped a com parison which had long been float ing elusive In the back of her mind. She jumped up and ran to the piano. “Listen, It’s like this,” she told him, and played with one hand, clear and defiant and compelling, the call of the young Siegfried. “That was how It was in football. And now—" She sat down before the piano, and, stretching out both hands over the keys, she filled the room with the rich clamor of the same theme rein forced by all the sumptuous strength of harmony. Neale sprang to his feet. “Tou know what Siegfried went through fire to find.” he cried, stooping to put his Ups on Martha’s cheek. "All he wanted was to get to Brunhllda. And that's all I want, my Brunhllda! All I want In the world!” (Continued in The Morning tier.I Former New York Woman to Wed Russian Prince Hr Culver**! Service.
