Railway Men Expect
Kansas Wheat Crop
I 150,000,000 Bushels
Traveling Passenger Agents McNutt
and Cundlff of the Katv and the Union
Pacific, respectively, are In town from
Kansas and they bring glowing report
of the outlook for a bumper wheat crop
all through Kansas and Oklahoma. Said
Mr. McNutt:
"Never but once haa there been such
a prospect for a wheat crop aa now. I
have traveled over the state constantly
during the last two weeks and the lowest
estimate placed by farmers, grain men
and ethers Is IM.000,000. bushels. Wheat Is
a bit late, but In the southern part of the
state they will be cutting about he middle
c.f June. In Oklahoma they will begin a
week sooner. . ..
"Tho Hessian fly "game has been over
played for purpose, but It has not had
the desired effect. The longs in wheat
could not boost the prices simply because
the fly was not apparent as reported.
Bonis few fields early in the season werei
slightly injure, but this injury extended
over only a limited area.
"Corn Is coming on fine and every Indi
cation Is for one of the best and big
gest crops raised.
Mr. Cundiff, discussing the crop ques
tion, said:
''After traveling over all Kansas and
getting In tourth with every section of
the wheat belt. I find that the yield by
the most conservative farmers and grain
men is placed at 150,000.000 bushels, with
many of the opinion that it will exceed
this estimate. The crop is perfect and
Is rapidly maorlng. The ' Hessian fly
damage has not amounted to anything
except in a few isolated case. If prices
continue high as now farmers are going
to have more money than they will know
what to do with."
South Omaha people need no
longer fear that under a Greater
Omaha they will have to spend val
uable time in the middle of the day
to come to Omaha and pay taxes.
This la a "care that has been held up
to them in the past by those who are
opposed to consolidation.
"You may say for mc(" said City
Treasurer William G. Vre, "that I
will, In accordance with the law,
establish a sub-treasury In South
Omaha when the cities are consoli
dated. We will have a deputy treas
urer In charge, so that South Omaha
people may pay their taxes there
without coming to Omaha.
"This statement Is made to clear
up any misapprehension in the minds
ot South Omaha people."

Gould Diets, chairman of the Greater
Omaha campaign committee, laauea this
statement:
"Our campaign for a Greater Oman.
thus far warrants Just one conclusion-
that Omaha. South Omaha and Dundee
will be consolidated Tuesday, June 1, pro
vided all who favor consolidation go to
the polls and vote. There Is no sort of
doubt about It. But we ought to remem
ber that no vote counts until it is cast.
So here Is our slogan:
" "We can't pull together till we get
together.' "
"We are all for a Greater Omaha, .here

from all the cltlsens. la urging ever)
body to vote. The Selby-Murphy affair

K. C Kenible. deputy state food
Inspector making investigations
here, made this statement In the city
health office, following a conference
with Health Commissioner Connell
and Hairy Inspector Honsle: "I am
at a loan to know of any excuse for
milk dealers offering for sale in this
city bottles of cream which teat as
low as 13 per cent butter-fat, when
the state and local laws require a
minimum of 18 per cent."
This Inspector recently gathered fifty
samples rf milk end cream from wagons
orcrMing in Omaha and South Omaha.
On of every oir of the samples tested
low enough to warrant filing complains.
8ome samples showed narrow margins be
low tha legal limit, while a few were
slightly over Ihe requirement.

of butter fat In cream as a gross viola

During the conference In the health of
fice Dr. Connell told the state Inspector
that the i hlrf trouble here has been a
lack of support In the node court.
"We have taken our evidence to the
police court, have even taken the poll.-
Judge to our laboratory to show him how
the samples are tested, and yet In most
rnses no fine are Imposed or the fines
