phoon wept areas of Japan and
China; the pushing on through days
of sweltering heat and tropical rains
^ in Indo-c’hina, Burma and India; and.
, -"e fter the comparative safety of
Kurope, the unflinching answering of
the formidable challenge of the fog
encompassed and ice locked stretches
of the north Atlantic—these are facts
that are dipped in an indelible dye—
the nucleus of a story that will fire

*like aw long as appreciation of hu

Plea for More Planes,
j "The flight clinches beyond any
further dispute the argument for
strengthening our national air forces
it also proves the urgency for com

family of nations a little closer to

Thayer Exhibit
at Dairy Show
Project Developed in Nebras
ka Feature of National
Display.
T.inroln, Sept. 28. — An attractive
exhibit showing the results of the cow
testing work in Thayer county left
the agricultural college here recently
on its way to tell the story of the
work to the thousands of people who
are expected to attend the national
dairy show opening yesterday at Mil
waukee, Wis.
The project developed in Thayer
[county by county eitension agent-I,.
C. Christie during the last two years
has attracted statewide attention for
some months past, but this exhibit is
expected to bring national recogni
tion among the dairy men.
A request from the officials of the
national show prompted the prepara
tion and sending of the exhibit.
Christie stopped at Milwaukee to put
tip the exhibit while on his way into
the dairy section of Wisconsin after
tntlch cows for the farmers of his
county who are again pooling their
orders for ihe fifth cat-load of good
dairy cows.
"Are you milking cows for exer
cise or for profit?” is the question
asked in the exhibit and answered by
the statement that “Records tell the
truth.” In the renter of the display
is the barn record holder, designed by
the farmers of Thayer county, a set
of milk scales, and actual copies of
Ihe records kept by farmers co-opera
tors In 1923. Two charts showing the
comparative returns front cows that
give the farmers only exercise and
those which give profitable returns
tell the story of what the farmers of
Thayer county learned in 1923.
Copies of the monthly reports writ
ten by Mr. Christie last year and of
the Nebraska agricultural extension
service extension circular No. 820.
"Hoard and Room." are available for
distribution.

Bond Prices Move
Steadily Toward
•
New Hijdi Levels
_____
Fasy Money ami Favorable
Trade News Accentuate*
Advance—Several New
Marks Set.
By A'sitrliilrd I'rfrtt.
New York, Sept, 29,—A progre**ive
forward movement last week carried
bond prices back to within striking
ilistance of the year’s high levels at
tained at the end of July. The steady
advance, accentuated by easy money
conditions and favorable trade news,
was excepted in investment circles as
an Indication that the market was
being prepared for I ho reception of
ihe German loan and other foreign
financing.
New 1924 high records were estab
lished by a variety of foreign. .United
States government, railroad, public
utility and industrial obligations. Not
rains in the active issues ranged from
one to eight points, with a marked
ixpansion in the volume of trading.
Morgan Returns.
The return of J. P. Morgan to Ron
dun to open formal negotiation* be
tween allied bankers and German
representatives for the $200,000,009
international loan provided in the
Hawes plan Indicated that the stage
was being set for the outstanding
-vent of the year in the investment
market. Intense interest in this
financing was evidenced at the annual
meeting of Investment hankers in
Cleveland last week and the dele
gates were clearly disappointed over
i he failure of the Interests In close
touch with the situation to shed any
light on details of the transaction.
Estimates of the offering date con
tinued to range from October 15 to
some time after election.
A sudden burst of strength and
activity in Mexican government obli
gations was one of the mysteries of
the week in bond trading. Based ap
parently on rumors that Mexico was
about to obtain a long sought loan,
the advance continued despite official
denials by hankers and treasury
representative* that negotiation* were
under way. In some quarters the
demand for the bonds was linked with
recent visit* of an American Indus
trial mission and a committee of oil
men to Mexico City.
Treasury Rond* High.
Gompared with the abnormally
heavy offerings of the preceding
week, there wa» a sharp contraction
in new financing, although the total
"t approximately $55,000,000 was close
'o the recent weekly average. Rail
road Issue* aggregating $30,000,000
constituted the bulk of the week's
business.
Record breaking ear leadings re
ported for the second week in Sep
tember and the remarkable operating
economies effected by the earriera in
August stimulated trading in railroad
securities. Renewed accumulation of
high grade rail bond* accompanied a
resumption of speculative activity in
lower priced issues which were ex
pected to benefit by merger and divi
dend developments.

iWtirh as One Cow on Half
as Much Feed.
Herron, Neb., Sept. 28 When (lie
milch cows of Thayer rounty are
ns carefully culled as the poultry
flocks, the returiies from the dairy
cattle can be expected to more nearly
approach the profits from the'mighiy
hens, says county agent 1.. C.
Christie in his fifth monthly report
on the cow testing project.
During Augiltt. 17 hene returned
as much profit as one cow. One cow
ate more than twice as much feed as
17 hens, however. As a money making
project, the good hens in the poul
try project, “accredited farm flocks,
have the average cows in the cow
testing project beaten, it seems, the
county agent reported. These two
projects are major ones of the county
farm bureau organization this year.
The work has been conduct'd for
several years longer in the poultry
project than in the cow testing.
Mr. Christie put the 25 liest cows
on the honor roll each month. In Au
gust, this select group produced an
average net profit of $10.46 per cow,
while the other 75 cows in the project
averaged a profit to their owners of
only .26 apiece. If the 75 cows had
been traded for 31 as good as the
honor roll cows, the total net profit
would have been the same and the
farmers would have had the cash
from the sale of the 44 extra cows,
the agent pointed out.
Dairy cows have appeared 111 times
on the honor roll in the last five
months, while the cows of strict beef
breeding ^nve made the position but
14 times. The dairy cow is the animal
for the high priced land, said the
county agmt.
"Milking good cows pays. h» said
The returns from the honor i 1!
cows averaging $1.25 per hour of
time spent upon them during last
month.
The 10 leading poultry flocks in the
county averaged 16 egg* per hen and
the other flocks (!6> averaged 10 eggs
per month. During the last 10 months
the sales from 23 flocks have totaled
over JP8.000. $14,000 of which has
been net prefit. August was the loth
month of this project, the new year
in work beginning November i, nf
each calender year.
Momentary Drop

New York, Sept. 28.—Momentarily
there arc* not so many expressions of
business confidence as were current
recently. The issuance of the Pitt*
burgh plus order has disturbed th»*
steel industry somewhat. Improve
ment In the oil, copper and textile
industries is slow in coming. There
are unpleasant reports that in Vari
ous large cities of the cast the build
ing Industry is near a letdown, con
struction of dwellings having been
overdone.
On the other hand, the automobile
industry shows pronounced better
ment. crop prices are at or near tlie
top for the year, railroad orders for
equipment are c xcellent, the tohaec«»
industry has an output 10 per cent
above last year, retail trade is satis
factory, railroad earnings ate good
reading, money rates are low and the
European situation looks better every
day.
Nothing is more pronounced at this
particular time than the elimination
of the national election from conver
sation among business men or having
influence on business.
Economically, the report of the cen
sus bureau on the cotton crop had a
pronounced effect, cotton advancing
approximately >20 a hale in the week.
It whs generally supposed that with ..
textile Manufacturers able to mark ^ .
Up their In' entorles to conform ■ to x
the higher pi h o of the staple there *
would be a good demand from the %
mill people. This seems to be wrong. ;
American demand Is negligible »nd
spinners say prices of raw cottoji
must come down or they cannot buy.
Women continue to wear fewer gat"
merits than formerly. Kurope, how
ever. is taking a fair amount of the
staple. From one southern port 31 *
steamships cleared with cotton car
goes the other day.
Coincident with the American situa
tion getting a bit muddled the out
look abroad improves every day.
1 Besides money continues very cheap.

on cloudy teeth <
4 Modern science, by perfecting a new
,~T way of combat; - the stubborn
film that covers * :th, now opens
\T the road to whiter teeth, »mfeJy.
I"'HAT cloudy teeth, yellow
ish, discolored teeth can be
made whiter is now an accepted
fact. Foremost dentists of the
world are widely urging this new'
method. You can have cleaner,
prettier teeth if yoe will start
Inday.
This is accomplished by com
bating a viscous film that covers
teeth. A stubborn, hard to re
move film that old ■'type denti
frices do not fight successfully.
Run your tongue across your
teeth and you can feel this film.
Under it are the clear, attractive
teeth you envy in others. Com
bat it, and your teeth become
many shades whiter—more glis
tening. This offers you a 10-Jay

Tho groat onomy of tooth
Film is the great enemy of teeth
beauty. And a chief cause, ac
cording lo world's dental au
thorities, of most tooth troubles.
It clings to teeth, gets into crev
ices and stay*. Germs by the
millions breed in it. They, with
tartar, are the common cause of
pyorrhea. It holds food in con
tact with teeth, inviting the acid
that causes decay.
You can't have prettier, whiter
teeth; you can’t have healthier
teeth unless you combat that
film.
