T1IE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1913. Nebraska FIR&T KICK MER ON RAISE State Departments Object to Lift to the Fourth Floor. THEY WILL QO, NEVERTHELESS dnnrlrr KurnUliril Vniter Hip llool Snld to De Mont Modrrn at Any In thr Snt Hollar. ' (ftom a Staff Correspondent) LINCOLN, Oct. 24.-(Speclal.)-"I don't want to so up on tnat fourth floor." Is the wail that Is going- up from all points of the stato house this morning from different departments which have been assigned offices In the new rooms which the stato has Just completed on tht fourth floor of Uie state house at a cost of something like K5.000 or JM.0C0. The board which has charge of the state house met this morning and after looking aver the situation, decided that the following departments must go on high: Board of Agriculture, adjutant 'general. Grand, Army of the Republic; Stallion Registration board, state veterinarian, Pardon board, Labor commission, Flro commission. Hotel commission and game warden. Tho offices now used by the adjutant general will be taken by the State Bnnk Ing board, which will then give to the Hoard of Control the rooms occupied by the Board of Agriculture, State Bank- Ing board, the Grand Arriiy of the Re public and tho basement rooms used by the Stallion Registration board. Secretary Mcllor of the State Board of Agriculture says that on account of the largo number of people who como to his offices In the summer he does not feel thHt ho can go up and will probably se curo room down town. Other depart ments do not want to leave their present quartern fearing that the rooms will be hot In the summer. However it Is probniblo that tho adjustment will be made. MoNt Moilrrti of All. The fact is that the rooms on the fourth floor are the neatest and most modem of any In the stato house. Of course tho Inside rooms will not enable tho employes to gaze xout of the win daws, as there are fio windows, but tho rooms which have windows, notably those on tho cornors, are tho most pleasant of any In tho whole building. Is expected that the elevator will bo completed nnd in running order by an other week, so that It will be nn easy matter to reach the fourth floor. The rooms will be numbered and a directory placed at the entrance to the elevator on each floor so that It will be easy to find the different departments. Numbering of tho offices began this afternoon, those on tho ground floor starting with 100 at the state superln tendoit's office, while the governpr has 101, secretary of state 103, treasurer 10L auditor 105, land commissioner 10 and so on, . The second IoOr start with 200', the thjrd with 800 and the fourth with 400. Policeman Ttralnrns.

(Special.) The man on the smaller farm must come to tho rescue of the under supplied meat market If prices are to be permanently reduced So declares W. J. Spillman, agriculturist In charge of the office of form manage ment of the bureau of plant Industry. Tho result of his labors for the last two years are embodied In a report. In order to avoid the permanent scar city of meat which comes sooner or later to alt densely populated countries, the causes of tho present shortage must be remedied, he says. The farmer Is not making exorbitant profits from live stock and Its products. If such were the case ho would produce more Instead of less of them. Except on ranges beef cattle havo been produced at a very small average profit, frequently at a loss. Farmers have produced beef mainly be causo they havo been taught that live stock In somo form Is necessary to con' serve soil fertility. We aro now beginning to learn that this Is not necessarily true, Mr. Spillman de dares. The farmer feels that he Is no longer compelled to keep unprofitable animals, hence the decrease In tho num ber pt cattle' In the'larft few years. This factor seems likely to Increase Instead of decrease as tlmo goes on. selective distribution Is described as follows: "An Important reason why farmers produce less meat than formerly Is to be found In the method of distribution from producer to consumer which has grown up In this" country. In most of the countries ot Europe public abattoirs have been constructed, to which farmers may consign their fat stock, the meat from which Is then sold to the con suther without passing through the hands of an Interminable line of middlemen, each ot which takes his, toll. In this country the farmer receives only a small fraction of the price paid by the con sumcr, Enormous pocking establish' ments have monopolized tho business and there Is little or no competition In buying the farmers' stock. The enormous for tunes which have grown up In this buel ncss In recent years thow that the farmer is not getting his full share of tho profits. "Again, tho retail meat business as at present conducted in cities' renders enor mous profits necessary. Numerous small groceries, each with Its Independent de livery system, cterks, fixtures, etc., each serve a few patrons scattered over consid erable overlapping areas. Better organiza tion of the retail business, whereby It shall bo conducted In larger units, with well systematized methods of delivery, are scrlo'usly needed. Such 'organization would greatly lessen the retail, price of meats and at the same time permit the farmer .to receive better prices. This would encourage greater production. Pri vate organizations for systematizing the retailing of meats, without public super vision, will not meet the situation. Such organizations havo grown up around the retail milk business, but ' Instead of cheapening the price to consumers or in creasing the price to producers, they have converted the saving thus effected Into exorbitant profits. Public abattoirs, with the public sale of the animals slaughtered at them, have become a crying need In this country." Key to the Situation Bee Advertising. Ifoung Christians .
