CORN HATDRES IM
CDTTD AD CDACm
arum ur mvoi
Hailroad Eeports Show There Will
Be. More Marketable Oorn Than
Normal Thii Year.
LAST WEEK'S FIGURES GOOD
There- Ii more marketable corn
than normal in southwestern Ne
braska, in spits of damage by frost,"
declares R. W. Lovelace, assistant
Immirration agent of the Burlington
Route.
He bat Just returned from an ex-
tenslTe trip along his road's lines In
that part of the state and visited
every station along1 the way and
talked to many farmers.
Lorelace's information about corn
Is in line with the Burlington's
weekly crop report, Just issued,
which says:
"Reflecting that we are past the mid
dle of October and there ia much corn In
Nebraska atUl maturlnK. we must agree
that the aeaaon's finish, so far as corn
la concerned, la most satisfactory.
Cora Helds Up.
"Our atatlon agents have practically
repeated estimates of last week on the
condition of the corn crop, which give
the following percentages of normal:
Omaha division, 101 per rent; Lincoln
division, 98 per cent; Wyrooro division,
10S per cent; McCook division, 101 per
cent."
The parados of considerable frost dam
age to corn, and yet more marketable
com than normal, is accounted for by
the fact that a much greater acreage of
oorn was planted this year than for
merly. 'Therefore," says Lovelace, In speak
big of the situation, "25 to 50 per cent
of this year's corn crop can be unmar
ketable because of softness, and yet the
good marketable corn exceeds the normal
marketable crop."
Poll Condition Good.
Soli condition la reported as quite sat
isfactory, with precipitation during the
last week of from a half Inch to an inch
In the Omaha division; from .16 to 1.25
Inches In the Lincoln division; from .12
to 1.96 Inches in the Wymore division,
r.nd from .12 to 1.60 inches In the Mo
Cook division.
"Threshing continues In a limited way,"
the report states. "But It la surprising
how small a part of the total crop has
actually been threshed. The wheat rieias
cpntaln many stacks of wheat and only a
few stacks of straw.
"A fourth crop of alfalfa la being cut in
some places, flowing ana seeains is wen
advanced. Sugar beets are being har
vested and the crop la average, being
estimated at about twelve tons to the
acre."
Supplementing the official report with
remarka on his observations in south
western Nebraska, Aslstant Immigration
Agent Lovelace says:
. "The farmers have plenty of money
now, yet haven't marketed thelf 1915
crops. Many are buying new automobiles.
"Other crops besides corn average 200
per cent In that part of the state. There
Is a lack of feeder live stock to utilise
the soft eorn there."
Sunday Declines
Invitation from ,
Toronto to Talk
i "
"Billy" Sunday has declined to go to
Toronto. Canada, for one day between
the close of his Omaha engagement and
the opening of his Syracuse, N. T en
gagement. Ben H. Spence, secretary of
the Dominion alliance, has wired him of
their disappointment and states that they
had secured the arena of the largest
building In Canada for the meeting. He
asks Mr. Sunday to reconsider and offer
S500 above all expenses "rather than be
deprived of the pleasure, honor and privi
lege of hearing you."
Up to the Police
Omaha is again stirred by a sensa
tional murder apparently the cul
mination of a series of holdup
operations which are baffling the
ileuths.
Whether the surface indications
are correct or not, it is up to the
police to omit no effort to unravel
this crime and bring the perpetrator
out in the open.
Safety to life from murderous out
laws is the first demand of the
community watching for a tilt of
the lid or setting a dragnet for un
derworld women are secondary con
siderations. The eyes of the people are looking
for tangible results from the police
department.
Former Omaha Man

HALT OF THE FORCE ON BEATS
Out of a total o'f 182 members of
the police department there are
thirty-two patrolmen on duty In
Omaha and seven in South Omaha
during the second shift, from 4 to
12 p. m. During the third shift.
front midnight to 8 a. m., there are
twenty-one patrolmen In Omaha and
five in South Omaha. Most of the
patrolmen assigned to Omaha work
are within the district bounded by
Twenty-fourth, Leavenworth and
Cuming streets, leaving a bare cor
poral's guard for outside protection.
The few patrolmen walking outside
beats follow the main thoroughfares,
such as Sherman avenue, Ames ave
nue, West Cuming street. North
Twenty-fourth street and Vinton
street, leaving a vast area of resi
dence streets unprotected.
Kipht patrolmen have been taken oft of
beats and assigned to "special duty,"

locating bootlegging places and disor
derly houses.
Of tie total number of police depart
ment employes, from chief down the list,

shifts.
If the city would be evenly divided
among the three shifts of patrolmen now
on duty each man would have more than
a square mile to cover.
Some neighborhoods of the city have
engaged special night watchmen who col
lect a monthly assessment from each
householder protected.

lice Dunn hava repeatedly contended that

While attending a performance at the
Cayety a young couple left their pet dog
In charge of H. Brown, colored, 2 Far

pool hall. After the performance they
called for the dog, and Brown denied
knowledge of lta whereabouts. "I'll give
you twenty-four hours to deliver the dog,
or to Jail you go for sixty days," In

Face powder simply covers up an un
attractive complexion and leaves no
lasting benefits. Those who have tried
a simple spurmex face lotion find It
much better, as It removes skin discol
orations, such as freckles and tan, and
makes the akin smooth, white and vel
vety. This lotion Is made oy dissolving
four ounces of spurmax in one-half pint
hot water, then adding two teaspoonfuls
glycerin. This - complexion beautlfler
does not rub off or show like powder,
and gives a more refined appearance. It
removes both shlnlneas and - saJlownesa,
rapidly giving the skin a permanent
healthy, youthful appearance.
An especially fine shampoo for this
weather can be had at trifling expense
by dissolving a teaspoonful of canthrox
In a cup of hot water. Four slowly on
scalp and massage tirlskly. This creates
a soothing, cooling lather that dissolves
and removes all dandruff, excess oil and
dirt. Illnslng leaves the scalp spotlessly
clean, soft and pliant, while the hair
takea on a glossy richness of natural
color, also a fluff iness which makes it
seem very much heavier than it la. After
a canthrox shampoo arranging the hair
is a pleasure. Advertisement
Soft, Curly, Wavy Hair
Now Easy to Have
(Woman's Realm.)
Beautiful, fluffy, natural-looking curls
or waves, without the use or the ruinous
curling Iron, are now possible for every
woman. Yes, not only possible, but very
easily acquired over night, and with bene
fit to the life and health of the hair, it is
only necessary to apply a little liquid sll
merlne before retiring, using a clean tooth
brush for the purpose, drawing this down
the full length of the tresses from root to
tip. In the morning the hair will have a
most delightful curlinesa and lustre, with
out the least suggestion of grease oi
stickiness, snd will be quite controllable,
no matter how the hair is done up.
As liquid sllmertiie Is procurable at any
drug store and aa a few ouiicea of it will
last for mouths, no woman note! put up i
with that flat, lank, dark apptarame oi
tha hair which fctvea suh an unwhole
some look of plainness to most faces.
