NAVY NEARS ITS QUOTA Even the unfavorable weather is faiting to stem the tide of war volun teers now sweeping m under the stim ulus of the; draft bill. Amicw record for morning recruit ing was made Thursday, when 126 volunteers had been enlisted by noon. If the rush continues through the day officers expect to equal, or even pass, the new high mark, of 156 for a day, made Wednesday. When the army station opened eighty-six "rookies" were waiting to be examined. Of these fifty-one ar rived unannounced at midnight from Des Moines. Sergeant Hansen got out of bed to arrange for their lodg ings. A big crowd was also on hand early to join the navy. Groups con tinued to arrive from small towns in the district. One bunch of fifteen came from Clarkson, after receiving a big scudoff from the townspeople. Examine Reservists. One hundred and thirty-five Omaha volunteers for the officers' reserve corps have already been examined and passed by Colonel Root and Captains McKinley and Bower, Captain Mo Kinley having examined more than half the total number, in addition to his heavy work ill charge of regular army recruiting. Almost as many more have been examined and re jected. Those accepted must wait until selected for training and ordered to go to Fort Snelling next week. Figures on navy recruiting for the last full week in April show that Omaha advanced from thirtieth to twenty-third among forty-seven main stations in number of enlistments in proportion to population. All the high ranking stations are in the middle or far west, with few exceptions. Omaha had 356 applicants and 195 enlistments during the week tabu lated. In number of actual enlist ments, without regard to population, Omaha stood eighth in the list, being beaten only by Baltimore, Philadel phia and other larger cities. Singe April 1 Omaha has recruited 655 of its required quota of 800. With three days remaining before this quota is supposed to be raised, Lieu tenant Waddell expects to make it.

Land in Spink county, South Da kota, has also been appraised and papers are coming in, but the Red Willow appraisements and necessary legal papers have preference. , "We will probably make some loans next week," said Secretary Frank G. Odell of the bank. "The bank's capital is paid in, we have the money and are all ready. The com pletion of appraisements and. details of drawing documents is all that now remains to be done."

TALKS FOR LAND BANK "It would not be good to plow up every foot of Nebraska soil in the present agitation for war crops," said Dr. George Ev Condra of the Univer sity of Nebraska in his illustrated lec ture on "Nebraska Soils" last night at the Commercial club. "If you should ask me whether there is not much land in the state that should be plowed and put into crops, I would answer, 'Yes, very much.' "But, on the other hand, much sod has already been broken up which would have been much better left in native! grasses. "I refer to some of the land in the , bottoms, land subject to flood, and land of particular kinds of soil. "There are lands of this kind which produce excellent hay in great quanti ties when left in the native grasses, but which do not produce well under cultivation. We must select these lands with reference to the type of soil and other conditions." Under Auspices of Land Bank. Dr. Condra spoke under the aus pices of the board of directors of the Federal Land bank of Omaha. The directors wanted to get some techni cal knowledge of the soils in various parts of the state as a rough basis upon which to .work in making ap praisements for farm loans to be made. Secretary Frank G. Odell of the Federal Land bank of Omaha in troduced the speaker. Dr, Condra had with him county maps, drawn by the department of geography and geology of the Uni versity of Nebraska. The maps give the soil conditions of every quarter section of the area of the counties. He said the university is working on this soil survey and is turning out five of these county maps every year. Copies of these will be placed with the Fed eral Land bank for reference. Tells of the Soil. The speaker traced the various soils of the state, and tabulated and com pared their productive possibilities. He illustrated the lecture with col ored lantern slides and showed pic tures of gullies and ravines cut into the soil in the southeastern part of the state. He pointed out the impor tance of checking these washouts when they are first noticed. This, he said, could be done to some extent by piling brush into the ravines, driving stakes, etc. He held it to be a pa triotic duty of the farmer to try to prevent washouts and the cutting up of the farm hind. The narrowing down of the channel of the Platte river, and consequent reclamation of some of the vast area over which that river now spreads it self, he pointed to as one ef the prob. lems Jhat must and will eventually be worked out. "There are six cnbic miles of good sand in the Platte bed," he said, "and much of this is already being dredged." 53 BveFootXmind THURSDAV'S MUSTER ROLL FOR OMAHA Thursday. Total.

TAKE 4 PER CENT PROFIT E. M. Staler and H. A. Tukev. speaking for the Real Estate board before the city council, assured the mayor and commissioners that their organization will not neglect any pa triotic duty in reduction of rents for small houses. The realtors appeared In the citv council clumber in response to an invitation, this being oia phase of an effort by city officials to reduce high cost of living during the period of war stress. "We would expect," said President Slater of the Real Estate board, "that you will enlist co-operation of wholesalers and retailers, as well as real estate men." "It is your patriotic duty to re duce rent-i," declared Mayor Dahl man. Accept Four Per Cent. Mr. Tukey went into some of the vagaries of the rental business, ex plaining that 90 per cert of houses controlled by agents are owned by individuals, and that one-sixth ot the rental is paid for taxes. He said he be lieved real estale men would be will ing to accept 4 per cent profit as a oatriotic concession. . "I think. Mr. Mayor, you have started in the wrong place, but our hearts are in the right place," added Mr. iukey. "Well. I believe owinrs should forego their profits in a time like this," rejoined the mayor. "We will report back to the ex change and we wilt do our part, iust we did in the time of the tornado. said Mr. Slater in conclusion. Wireless Outfits to Set Clocks Are Dismantled Several hundred jewelers in all parts of Nebraska are sad because Uncle Sam has made them pull down wireless apparatus which they in stalled less than two months ago. When the Nebraska Ketail Jewel ers' association was in session at the Paxton hotel February 22 and 23 last several hundred jewelers bought wire less apparatus to give them aerial connection with Arlington and thus obtain an accurate system of regulat ing clocks. A representative of an eastern house was here demonstrating and selling the equipment in the lobby of the hotel. His demonstration was a somewhat attractive feature. A speaker on the regular program talked long of the importance of such wire less stations to jewelers, particularly their importance as advertising fea tures, as the jeweler in a town who was regulating his big clock hourly by wireless would have an advantage over his competitors. The outfits cost from $75 to $100 apiece. Dandruff Surely Destroy! The Hair Girls if you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. .It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dis solve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning most if not all of your dandruff will be gone and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all Itching and digging of the scalp will stop and your hair will look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid ar von at any drug store. It is inexpen sive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never fails.
