It is that run-down condition of the system that results from impure, impoverished, devital ized blood. It is marked by loss of appetite and that tired feeling, and in many cases by some form of. erup tion. The be?t' wy' to treat spring sick ness is to take Hood's Sarsaparilla. Ask your . druggist for "this all-tho-year-round medicine. It purifies, enriches and revitalizes tho blood. Between 75,000 and 100,000 aeres of gov ernment land in Nebraska may revert to tho government through prosecutions which have been and aro being Insti tuted on evidence furnished br special agents of tho flold service of the general land office. H, 15. Durham, special agent, Is In Omaha completing reports on recent in vestigations which he has niado. He has had charge- of the work on some of the larger Nebraska cases, several of which involve more than 3,500 acres of land. Tho common charges in the prosecu tion of these cases has been fraudulent entry and the use of dummy entrymen by cattlemen In the western section of the state. It is said that tho United Stutea De partment of tho Interior through the land office and its special agents Intends to clean uj ii number of cases now pending In Nebraska, and while, this work Is be ing doncMt Is believed that a number of now cases will be Instituted. During tho period when the cattle busi ness was at Us zenith In 'Nebraska many acres of government land were illegally fenced. When the government compelled cattlemen to remove these fences their rango was shortened considerably, and it is said that tho practice of using dummy entrymen became a common one. Much of the land thus acquired went Into tho bigger ranches, and though some of these suits have been pending for sov eral years the department has determined to clean up theso cases during the pres ent year. It Is believed that the greatest activity TvllI occur during the summer months. Tnu' that Mn.tilin im I tit ..iilnHil htiL f district f which Kansas City Is to have tho reserve bank, Kansas City bankers aro already biuy trying to cultivate a better feeling with the Omaha banks. Nearly every one of the big Omaha banks Is In receipt of letters from the Kunsas City banks with which they correspond, suggesting that Kansas City would like to send a committee up hero to "talk It over" and smooth out the rough places, or Inviting the Omaha mon to run down to Kansas City for a friendly conference, ! Presumably, the whole question will be , taken up at a clearing house session, and i If a committee of Kansas City bankers ) come, they will be received and enter tained by the Omaha bankers as a group.
