Winning Babies Named Special Dlupalrh to The Omaha Bee. Lincoln, Sept. 5.—Today marked the close of Nebraska's annual state fair, one of the most successful In the his tory of the fair.

Toleti, superintendent of gates, and the ex penditure of money by visitors amounted to two or three times as much as a year ago, according to the fair managers. A speech by Adam McMullen, re publican nominee for governor, was one of the chief features of the day. The speech was well received by a large crowd of listeners. Mr. McMullen stressed the agricul tural situation and asserted that "ag riculture has far too much political organizing and not enough business organizing. "It has too many alleged leaders who talk and lecture theories,” Mr. McMullen said. "Men who do not get down to brass tacks or to practice' «nd tangible things. Legislation Isn't the all Important thing with agricul ture; business action Is what counts and this Is true of all Industry. Farm Tax Too Heavy. "Legislation can help the farmer to help himself, and that is all we can do. Industrial and agricultural progress has been made In the last 30 years, especially along Industrial lines. This has been due to the in telligent effort and dlligenca on the part of the farmera themselves. The have made steps toward organ! zatlon and In many ways have co perated and worked together. “The taxation problem In Nebraska Is closely Identified with the agri cultural. because 73 per cent of the revenue raised by taxation Is as sussed against real estate and ap proxlmately 77 per cent of this ren estate tax Is levied on farm property This places a tax burden on agricul ture out of proportion to Income The only way in which this burden may be lessened Is through econo mical management of public affairs not alone In the state government but In all subordinate units of gov ernment. “Money should be spent only for necessaries and above all else, we should see to It that every tax dal lar expended for public service should purchase 100 cents worth of value.” Prize Winning Babies.
