STOPPED SHORT Taking Tonics , and Built Up on Right Food. The mistake la frequently made of trying to build up n worn-out nervous system on so-called tonics drugs. New material from which to rebuild wasted nerve cells Is what should bo Eupplled , and this can bo obtained only from proper food. "Two years ago I found myself on the verge of a complete nervous col lapse , duo to overwork and study , nnd to Illness in the family , " writes a Wis consin young mother. "My frionda became alarmed because - cause I grew palo and thin nnd could not sleep nights. I took various tonics prescribed by physicians , but their effects were off shortly after I stopped taking them. My food did not seem to nourish mo and I gained no flesh nor blood. "Reading of Grape-Nuts , I de termined to stop the tonics -and sco what a change of diet would do.

STIPULATION NOT AGREED ON State's and ' Attorneys Company's Lawyer Fall to Agree on Terms of a Test Case. The prusnuctK of ti enlt by Chief Food Commissioner Mains against the National Biscuit company , says the Lincoln Journal , for failure to brand the net weight on packages of food sold In Nebraska are not any brigntcr than they wore a few months ago. The legislature , nearly two years ago , passed an act , to require food packages to be branded with the net weight. The National Bis cuit company , after a long delay , In dignantly withdrew Its business from Nebraska and for months and months the people of Nebraska got along with the crackers made by the Loose-Wiles company and an Omaha biscuit com pany. Finally the National Biscuit company wandered back to Nebraska and offered Its wares without taking the pains to pay any attention to the act of the legislature. Finally Mr. Mains , food commissioner of the state , made up his mind to enforce the Btnte law , but he has not done so up to date. For several weeks John L. Webster , attorney for the National Biscuit company , County Attorney Tyrrell 0ml Assistant Attorney Gen eral George Ayres have been trying to agree on a state of facts as a basin of a prosecution against the biscuit company , but no1 agreement has been arrived at. First County Attorney Tyrrell balked on part of the stipulation pro posed by John L. Webster. Then steps wore taken to pacify the" county at- the brunt of the prosecution that the brount of the prosecution that was to be , he would have his way about It. Mr. Tyrrell sat down nnd dashed off a page or two of stipula tion that suited him. This was sub mitted to Mr. Webster and another conference of the three attorneys was held. Mr. Webster went back to Omaha to ponder over the situation and he soon reported that his clients insisted on having certain things In the stipulation that were left out and on having certain things in the stipu lation lett out. Now th conferences between the attorneys will begin over again. In the meantime State Food Commis sioner Mains says ho intends to win the suit against the biscuit company which lb to be made defendant. Also in the meantime the blsoult company itdicatos that no dllt'erence what t o Nebraska supreme court may say about the , matter , the com pany will take the case to the fed eral court and ascertain whether or not the state of Nebraska has power to Interfere with interstate commerce and shut out a food product , just be cause the net weight Is not branded on every package. Testing of Seed. The Nebraska seed laboratory lo cated at the state farm which has been closed for a time throughout the summer has again been reopened and is now prepared to test samples of seed for purity and germination. This department Is a branch of the United States department of agriculture. The tests are made free of charge for all farmers and others who send seeds for this purpose. In order that no one man shall flood the depart ment with work to the exclusion of others In the state , the number of tests that any one man may have made for him Is limited to ten. Commissioners Must Appoint. Attorney General Mullen , being ap pealed to , gave It as his opinion that the county commissioners of Chey enne county must appoint a county judge to 1111 n vacancy caused by the death of the elected judge. The deci sion is in line with the opinion of At torney General Mullen in the case of the vacancy on the railway commis sion caused by the death of Commis sioner W. II. Cowglll. The attorney general held in the matter of the rail way commissioner that vacancy must occur thirty days before the general election to be filled at an election , all of the statutes on the subject being construed collectively. He so holds in the case of the vacancy In the county jndgoship of Cheyenne county. The county board has no power to ap point , ncordlng to the attorney gen- oral. Preacher Sues Newspaper. The Rev. James R. Gettys of Da vid City , has filed suit against the Lincoln Dally Star for a 515,000 for libel. The Rev. Gettys asserts that he was libeled when the Star denied his. defense of Chester A. Aldrich. Suit Against Telephone Company. The railway commission has In structed Attorney General Mullen to file a complaint against the Nebraska Telephone company on the charge of discriminating in rates. Governor Sells Bull to Prison. T.

"Despite the blue outlook In the spring , and especially during the mid dle of the summer season , Nebraska again comes to the front with big crops this year , " said Deputy Labor Commissioner Maupln. " \Vo have just finished compiling the crop statistics , and wo find that the nine principal agricultural crops this year total approximately $2120- 000,000 In value. "Tho com crop of 1910 amountcd'to 178,82o,128 bushels , an Increase of 9 , . 7dni : ? ! ) bushels over 1900. Thu vnlno of this years corn crop Is $87,877,340. "The winter wheat yield this year was 80G17,5U5 bushels , a decrease from 11109 of ii.827,200 bushels. The value of this year's wheat crop Is ? ; JO , fi5D,7Gl. ' "Tho sprhiR wheat yield this year was -l.bM.DlT bushels , an Increase of ( Ji ( ! , ( > 52 bushels over 1909. The value of the spring wheat crop this year is $ 4,079,908. "The 1910 yield of wild ami tame hay , not Including alfalfa , was 2,111- 394 tons , a decrease of 1,141,910 tons Irom 1909 , which is easily explained by the unfavorable weather condi tions during the season when hay should ho making Its best growth. The increased price , , however , more than compensates for the shorter crop , the value this year being $37,330,728 , or nearly $8.000,000 more than last year , Alfalfa Crop. "The alfalfa crop amounted to 1,803,681 tons , a decrease of 8,889 tons from last year. This year's alfalfa crop Is worth $28,265,215. "Tlih was Nebraska's banner oats year , flic totaf yield being 71,502,877 bushels , worth $17,989,090. Last year's oats crop amounted to 59,053,479 bush- elft. "The rye crop amounted to 823,018 bushels , worth $193,559. "The barley crop amounted to 2,333 , . 199 bushels , worth $1,073,271. "Tho potato crop this year is short , amounting to 3,330,198 bushels , worth $1 a bushel now and bound to go up. "The sugar beet crop shows an In crease of 120 per cent over 1909 , the production this year amounting to 105,309 tons , worth $520,851. "There were 1,149,028 bushels ot speltz , 154,018 tons of millet , 171,154 tons of sorghum cane and 18,042 tons of kafllr corn. "The department did not take the manufacturing statistics this year , having co-operated with the govern ment census bureau and thus avoid ing the duplication of the work. There , are plenty of evidences at hand to' show a healthy Increase of production over the previous year , and it Is safe to say that Nebraska's total manufac tured output during the last year Is upwards of $250,000,000. Live Stock Gratifying. "Tho live stock figures for J010 are gratifying. The total valuation for the year is 5171,983,050. "During the period covered by the report just completed the grand total of Nebraska's output grain , hay , live stock , buttter , eggs , poultry ? mihcel- laneo'us crops and manufactured pro ducts will approximate $680,000,000. I do Tiot believe the state has ever had a better year .taking everything as a whole. " Money for Soldiers. Governor Shallenbcrger has re ceived $1,925.51 for the Soldiers' home at Grand Island and $2,100 for the home at Mllford. , The money was ' sent by the government as a quarterly - ly payment on the $100 per member of the soldiers' homes , which It pays annually. Hanging Pays Stryker. George Stryker has filed his bill with the state for $113.40 , which is the amount he charged for superin tending the execution of Bert Taylor at the state penitentiary. Of thin amount ? 43 40 is for expenses and the $100 is his fee. Deep Waterways Convention.
