and asked him to use his Influence to
keep the printing from going outside the

In letting the contracts for printing

a firm In Missouri made a bid something
like 1804 less than Nebraska bidders. An

the Missouri firm to do the work and
It was found that the firm does the same

Warning to Tillers
to Get Good Seed
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Sept. 10. (Speclal.)-Gov-ernor
Morehead has taken up the propo
sition of seed corn for next year and
urges the farmer to be most careful In
the selection of seed for next year. Ho
goa Into the matter quite fully (and has
Usned the following proclamation' on tho
subject:
Tb . experiences of successful; farmers
and tho results of tests made- by experi
ment stations Bliow conclusively that
proper selectloiuand care of native grown
seed corn always results In seed' .of strong
germinating and high fielding power,
It Is especially Important that we should
use caro this year because section of our
Mate have been visited by a severe drouth
which will leave some farmers without
seed. In most of these sections, however,
there are those who can save sufficient
seed for many of their neighbors. If
they fall to do so these neighbors will
be required to send away for seed.- A test
made at the Nebraska experiment station
shows that seed from other states has
averaged 6.2 bushels less per acre than
native grown seed.
Stalks of corn which Have withstood
tha severe conditions of tho season and
still produce ears shot; great vitality.
Seed from such Btalks should be tho very
best. Nature has helped this year In
eliminating the weak plants, and W
should use obery effort to savo our seed
from the winners In the batte of the sur
vival of the fittest.
If it is impossible to Becure seed, in the
Immediate neighborhood, tho farmer
should go no further .fro mhonie than la
absolutely necessary. H is always better
to secure seed from the nprth than from
the south. .For these reasons It Is urged
that the farmers In the more favored sec
tions of our state carefully save a largo
amount of seed.
Vhere It Is Impossible to secure good
seed of this year's crop, It may bo pos
sible to locate some of last' year's corn.
If the germinating power of old corn Is
good, It will ordinarily give better results
than seed brought from a distance.
If these precautions are observed, it
will not be nccescary for any Nebraska
farmer to go far from home for seed, and
thus the yield of com for next year will
not be decreased because of Imported
seed, .but will be Increased because of
careful selection.
Our experiment station at Lincoln will
be glad to send bulletin nn .'Mi.i,-..,

GRAND ISLAND, Neb,, Sept. 10.
(Bpeclat Telegram.) The general store of
P. Martin & Co, was robbed during the
night and $600 In oath taken and an tin
known amount of clothing and Jewelry,
Including gold watches. The entire loot
may run to $1,000. Entrance was gained
through a basement window by one of the
presumably three burglars, who then
went through the basement and opened
the alley door. It Is believed tho men
must have hod an automobile to carry
away such an amount of goods, though
no trace of such a vehicle can be found.
The police discovered the robbery at i 30
o'clock this morning, but have no clue.
It Is stated that the safe had not been
locked. Tho Jobbers separated the cas!j
