..yet received official notice of the
change, but, of course, we are ready
to co-operate with the government in
; every way possible toward the win
: ning'of the war. It is too early to
speculate as to the effect the change
.' will produce."
; W. B. Tagg, president of both the
f Omaha Live Stock exchange and the

Summer Tourist Tariff
Schedules Reach Omaha
Summer tourist tariffs have reached
the Omaha offices.
Although there is some reduction in

not one that is likely to encourage
travel. Here are-the round trip rates
to some of the leading eastern points
and apply only to chair car travel:
Last Year. This Year.

Heavy Rains PrevJI in
Western Par. of State
Heavy rains prevailed over the
western part of Nebraska Wednesday
night, with an inch to an inch and one
half at Sidney, Scottsblutf and
Bridgeport. Scattered showers fell
elsewhere in the state.
Through the southern part of Ne
braska the wheat harvest is in full
swing, according to reports to the
railroads. It is said that farmers do
not want rain until' the cutting is
finished. '
Railroad men who have come in
from southern Nebraska and Kansas,
where the wheat harvest is under
way, assert that it is the general opin
ion of the farmers that the grain will
yield 20 to 25 bushels an acre. The
quality is of the best.
Doctor Says Wife Hampers
His Professional Career
Dr. S. Goodrich Reed, answering
his wife's divorce suit in district
court, alleges she has been guilty of
cruelty and has greatly hampered
him in his endeavors to rise in the
profesLnal world. He says she has
been "arrogant, haughty, flippant and
fault-finding" toward his friends, both
professional and personal, and that
this conduct has been detrimental to
his practice. He asks that her peti
tion be denied and that he be given
the divorce.
