Ivan Armstrong Mrs. Eva Gray came from De NORMAL LOSSES to farmers which occur when corn is stored in average circular snow fence cribs can be averted by building- a pole type crib. Plans for such a crib (no. 73271) have been developed by University of Nebraska Exten sion offices at a cost of 25c per copy. Dollar losses through snow-fence crib storage justify construction of a pole-type structure such as the one illustrated, which will cost the farmer 20-25c per bushel on the corn to be stored, excluding labor. The crib features a concrete floor, roof hatches for easy filling, and poles cross-tied with four strands of No. 9 wire twisted. A drag trench is optional. The poles are about 22 feet in length and should be set 5 feet apart. Roof decking can be of any type of material. Snow fence is used between the poles. The crib is pro vided with removable doors to save labor while shelling. This particular plan for a structure is 8 feet wide and 25 feet long; however, the length can be varied. A crib of these dimensions will hold about 1200 bushels of corn. Farmers who pick and shell corn in the field will need light bin storage. Plans for a variety of buildings equipped for drying or aeration are also avail able. Write to Ag. Engineering Extension office, College of Agriculture, Lincoln 3, Nebraska for a copy of "Gram Storage Plans Catalog" or see your County Extension Agent for further information.

Home Front 18G1-1863 Nebraska Territory was not the scene of any battles between North and South during the Civil War. However, the war created problems on the home front. Among the problems was a wartime direct tax of $19,312. levied by the federal government which the territory could not afford to pay. Another was local strife due to lawless riders called Jayhawk ers and to differences of opinion as to what course of action con stituted patriotism and loyalty. The Territorial legis 1 a t u r e sought a painless means to pay the war tune direct tax. A plan to confiscate property in Ne braska which belonged to citi zens of the South was rejected by the U.S. Congress. It was then decided that Nebraska would be willing to forego a meeting of the territorial legislature thus eliminating the necessity of the annual federal appropriation of $20,000 for the purpose. As a result the legislative ses sion of 1862-1863 was not held, to the disappointment of can didates who had campaigned successfully for a seat in that body and of hotel keepers in the capital city. The Jayhawkers caused much consternation in southeastern Nebraska during the first mon ths of the war. They were irreg ular bands of riders, sometimes with a semblance of military ; and family of Lincoln were Sun, organization, who claimed to oe dliy supper guests at tne ArthUr Union men in operation against Laughlin home rebel sympathizers. More often i they were thieves and looters!. , , , who were using the war to give: Clyde Birds 5on troit, Mich., Thursday for an ex tended visit with her son Mr. and Mrs. Dwight Beetison and other relatives.

COME IN AND TRY US. A an w flies Lessee and Standard Oil Agent Tjam a veneer of patriotism to their thievery. Some of the bands operated from Missouri and Kansas, the most notorious was led by a Kansan named Cleveland. Most of the persons they robbed were loyal to the Union. Feeling against the Jayhawk ers ran so high that a bill "to suppress jayhawking" was in troduced into the Territorial Council. It would have declared an open season on Jayhawkers, making it legal for Nebra.skans in dealing with the thieves "to kill slay and destroy by all and every means known for taking life." The bill did not pass but anti Jayhawk societies were organ ized in the counties concerned which carried out its spirit. The Nebraska City News of Jan. 25, 1862, reported that one suspected Jayhawker had been shot and another pushed under ; the ice of the Missouri River. ; The editor mildly disapproved of these actions. He wrote, "But ! don't let us have any more per 1 sons, jayhawkers and horse- thieves included, chucked under ! the ice. It is murderous, unwar ! rantable and very cold."
