ister Objections to Increase
- v in Feeding Bill
AT OMAHA STOCK YAEDS
. (From a Stiff Correspondent )
Lincoln, Dec. 1. (Special Tcle-
1 grm.) For the first time since the
flood farmers are objecting to a raise
in the price of corn. However in this
instance they are the buyers and not
the sellers. The case is one in which
the Omaha stock yards applied for a
permit to raise the price of com fur
nished shippers at the yards from $1
to $1.50, claiming that there was no
profit, but a loss, in the present price,
as set by the commission.
General Manager Buckingham of
the stock yards company showed at
the hearing before the commission to
day that other stock yards in ditter
nt parts of the country were getting
a higher price and quoted Chicago
Denver and Wichita as receiving $1.50
and Sioux City, St. Joseph and .Kansas
City $1.25 per bushel.
C. H. Gustafson. president of the
Farmers' union, and Secretary Short

Live Stock and Grain association pro

THE BEE:
Suit to Set Aside
Plattsmouth High
' School Bond Issue
Platrcmmith Vh TW 1 (5n-
.) Suit was filed in the district
court Wednesday to set aside the
vote of an additional tax levy of
$15,000 for the completion of a new
high school building in flattsmouth.
The proposition carried by five ma-
jority. Now comes a number of citi
zens, namely, 1 nomas Wiles, jr., U
L. Marten, John McN'urlin, Warren
A. Tulene, Albert Tulene and John
Cory, who seek to have that portion
of the election declared illegal. The
plaintiffs allege in their petition that
the carrying of the election was pro
cured by illegal votes, furnishing a
list of those who voted who, were
not entitled to vote. They also al
lege that one of the members of the
school board hauled voters to the
polls and solicited votes for the carry
ing of the bonds and that the bal
lots were not in the hands of the city
clerk in the time specified by law.
In the petition the Board of educa
tion, composed of C. A. Marshall,
E. H. Wescott, T. n. Pollock, Phil
lip Theirold, F. E. Schlater and John
A. Schuhloff, are made defendants
in the suit.
Box Butte Potato
Crop Worth $700,000
Alliance, Neb., Dec. 1. (Special.)
The report recently issued by the
state board of Agriculture, listed as
Bulletin No. iW, confirms the asser
tion that Box Butte county leads in
potato production. This county had
5,577 acres in potatoes, which yielded
689,875 bushels. Figuring these at
$1 per bushel (the price has ranged
from SO cents to 11.50 per bushel)
and we find that the value of the po
tato crop for 1916 in Box Butte coun
ty is practically $700,000,

the disease, the federal veterinarians
advise. Affected animals should be
kept to themselves until the disease
has run its course, and animals ex
posed to infection should also be kept
separately for at least eight days.
Barns, premises and other equipment
with which the diseased animals have
come in contact should be carefully
cleaned and disinfected. Well animals
should be prevented from getting at
food or water mouthed over by those
with sore mouths. It is a good plan
first to wet down with disinfectant the
partitions of the premises to be
cleaned, so as to lessen the likelihood
of spreading the disease germs in in
fected dust. The premises then should
be thoroughly cleaned and again disin
fected. Drinking troughs and feed
racks should be disinfected and then
rinsed with clear water.
A compound creosote solution made
up of four ounces of the chemical to
each gallon of water is recommended
for use in this work. A solution of car
bolic acid of approximately the same
strength also can be used. These solu
tions should be applied with a spray
machine or otherwise to all portions
of the walls and floors.
