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. I
nto Grape-Nuts four times a day ,
with cream and drank milk also , went
to bed early after eating a dish of
Grape-Nuts.
"In about two weeks I was Bleeping
coundly. In a short tlmo gained 20
pounds in weight and felt like ) a
different woman. My llttlo daughter
whom I was obliged to keep out of
Bchool last spring on account of
chronic catarrh has changed from a
thin , palo , nervous child to a rosy ,
healthy girl nnd has gene bock to
echool this fall.
"Grape-Nuts and fresh air were the
only agents used to accomplish the
Lappy results. "

NATIONAL COMPANY PREPARES
TO RESIST WEIGHT LAW.
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. W. Smith has paid out of the
cash fund at the state penitentiary
$100 for fi bull which he bought nt
the publu sale of Governor Shnllon-
berger Iru-t October. The freight on

STATE'S CROP VALUE.
Labor Bureau Figures It at the Sum
of $220,000,000.
"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.

Ono request frop.i a Lincoln citizen
to be appointed as a delegate to the
lakes-to-the-gulf deep waterways con-
\ontion , to be held In St. Louis on No
vember 25 and 2f , has been received

ized to appoint ten delegates to attend
the convention. This being the num
ber to be sent from cities of between
20,000 and 56,000 population. C. II.
Tedd of Elm Creek , Neb. , has written
the mayor that he would like to be ap
pointed n delegate , but from the In
structions received Mr. Love Is of the
opinion that ho must appoint the del
egates Irom Lincoln.
The Kidnaping of Miss Wood.
In an eflort to arouse the United
States state department to an investi
gation of the kidnaping of Miss Grace
Wood , a former Nebraska girl , who
