With tho numerous snows of tho winter and tho recent heavy snowstorm thut was gen trul over all thu territory covered by our lines, groin Is corning Into tho spring In uplendld condition. I don't hesitate in putting the condition at 100 per cent. plus. It could not bo better, nor could the ground bo In better condition than right nt this time. The soil Is thoroughly soaked nnd the winter damage to the grain sown last fall has beon less than tho lowest minimum In years. It nothing should hap pen to Uio crop between now and harvest Nebraska and - Kansas would rulse nnd harvest tho largest wheat crop In the hhttorv ot tho two states.

Here is the Greatest Cook Book in the World A $2.00 Book for 89c "Let Me Show You My Economy Book" ""Tr is the moat fascinating book I have ever read. And it is just as practical 1 as it can be. Usually I am not interested in reading anything but stories, but I can't let this book alone. The suggestions are ALL rrne and it tells so much about people whom I have heard a great deal about but never met. It gives one a real glimpse into their home life and I have learned many help ful things from my 'ECONOMY BOOK.' UP 1 M-IE High Cost of Living is getting to be such a real problem that I don't I wonder the most prominent and the brainiest women in America decided to look into the matter. They have done a splendid thing in an entirely novel way. I don't see how they ever thought of it or how so many of them worked it all out. "TTO other book is ANYTHING like it. There are four parts to it. Part I XI One is written around the autograph book of the President's mother who was a very famous housekeeper and it gives you such a PERSONAL FEELING that you cannot miss a word. Part Two gives so many excellent sug gestions that it will take me months to master them all. And here are the most interesting biographies of well known women that I have ever read. Then there are so many splendid photographs of the contributors that it is a regular gallery of all of the notables. ""DEALLY I can't bo J. gin to tell ydu a hundredth part of hi good ness. It is a perfect gem of a book. See how beau tifully it is bound, in blue and whiteand gold. There are nearly 700 pages and for 89 cents it is the big gest bargain 1 ever got. Why, 1 can save enough in two days through its help to pay for two books. Do get one. I know you will be ju$t as pleased ma I am." If after reading the Econo my Book you are not pleased with it your mon ey will be refunded, if you will part with your book. Nothing but praise ia heard for the truly mag nificent work these ladies have accomplished.
