FINANCIAL AID
IS WANTED FOR
STOCK GROWERS
Help in Providing Money for
Calf Crop,. Which Must Be
Fostered' to Aid
War.
Stockmen in the west and south
west have been very much exercised
regarding the outlook for financing
their operations during the coming
season. The drought in Texas and
Oklahoma has blocked the 'prospect
for a calf crop for this year in that
direction, and present indications pont
to a very small calf crop in the south
west next year. This made it Very
essential that the stockmen in the
west and northwest should stock up
their ranches and run them to the
fullest capacity. r
Banks and loan companies in the
live stock territory, with the aid of
the Federal Reserve banks, so tar
have been able to handle what we
known as feed lot loans and loans on
aged cattle, but parties who are run
ning breeding herds and those men
in the northwest who handle stock
cattle were having some trouble in
getting financed on the long time
loans. This matter was taken up by
the various live stock associations
with the authoritiies at -Washington
Ask Government Aid.
The managers of the Federal Re
serve banks at several of the western
reserve districts also took the matter
up and at the request of the different
exchanges the National Live Stock
Exchange last week sent a strong
letter to the authorities at Washing
ton requesting their co-operation in
helping to take care of the emergency
proposition, and suggested that the
War Finance Corporation arrange
to finance the western stockman on
his breeding herds, and also on his
stock cattle business. The stockmen
evidently made their wants so plain
to the War Finance Corporation and
to the Tresury department officials
that they are to be granted relief.
A committee of three from the War
Finance Corporation at Washington
met in Kansas City Friday with mem
bers of the Federal Reserve banks
from Kansas City and from Dallas,
Texas, together with representative
stockmen and bankers from several
of the western statef. This meeting
was to iorm plans lor tne actual aid
of the stockmen who are handling
breeding herds and stock cattle. The
authorities at Washington seem to
be alive to the situation and they fully
realize the necessity of the increased
production of live stock. They have
already signified their intention to
aid deserving stockmen, and the de
tails ot the plan will soon be worked
out and made public. W. J. Coad,
vice president of the Packers National
bank, represented Omaha at this
meeting.
J. Z. Miller, jr., manager of the
Federal Reserve bank at Kansas City,
will have charge of the distribution
of funds in this territory .

(In a previous adventure Peggy has helped y.
souurv mf imuuin vi ajvuvbuuiv iivtu
his master, whom ha haa heroically saved.)
CHAPTER I.
Captured by' Tramps.
"S
EE the bear! See the funny
dancing bearl
Down the street from
Peggy's home the children were
gathering in an excited crowd. Peggy
who had been' taking an afternoon
nap in the hammock, ran to see the
tun.
"A bear! I wonder if he is as good
a dancer as Lonesome Bear," she
said to herself. "And I wonder if
he loves the free forest and hates the
hard city pavements as much as
Lonesome Bear did before we helped
him gain his liberty."
The children were shrieking with
laughter and applauding the odd an
tics of the bear. Peggy could see
he was askillful performer.
"How much he looks like Lone
some Bear," she thought. "Perhaps
this is the brother he lost when he
was a youngster."
Just then the bear waltzed around
so that he faced Peggy. Instantly
his dance stopped and he held out im
ploring paws to her.
"Save me. Princess Peggy," he
moaned. "I'm in worse slavery than
ever,"
If was Lonesome Bear himself. He
had been captured again. Peggy in
dignantly looked at his master. It
wasn't Pete his former owner. This
man was a rough, ragged, unkept
fellow, who in some way seemed
strangely familiar to her. He turned
around, showing as he did so a great
hole torn in the tail of his coat Then
Peggy recognized him. He was the
tramp who had interrupted the wed
ding of General Swallow to Miss
Purple Swallow. The hole was the
one made when Johnny Bull grabbed
him and chased him into the woods.
The tramp prodded Lonesome
Bear with a long, sharp stick.
"Waltz, you lazy bear," he ordered
"or you'll not eat tonight."
Lonesome Bear began to waltz
again in a weary, heartsick way.
Come waltz with me, Princes
Peggy," he grunted, "so that I can
talk to you."
Peggy pushed her way through the
crowd, and lo to the delighted sur
prise of the other children danced
with Lonesome Bear. A large crowd
gathered to enjoy this queer show
but Peggy didn't care, because she
was too busy listening to what Lone
some Bear had to say.
I was wonderfully happy in the
free woods," he sighed. "I found so
many berries and grubs that I was
growing fat while I had a lot of fun
dancing for the Birds. My only fear
was from a gang of tramps who had
a camp by the river. That I had cause
for this fear is shown by the fact
that one hot night when I carelessly
napped beneath a tree they pounced
upon me and made me prisoner.
lhis fellow here is lags, the lead
er of the tramps. He knew I was a
dancing bear, because he had seen me
frolicking with the Birds. So he
brings me here to town every day,
and I am unhappier than ever be
cause I have tasted happiness and lost
it."
"Poor Lonesome Bear, this tramp
has no business living off your mis-i
Sweetness Other Than
Sugar Is Urged for All
Who Would Help Save
While sufficient suear for canning
and preserving will be available in
Nebraska, if used economically, the
federal fuel administration for
Nebraska is urging the use of other
sweeteners wherever possible.
Included in ths list of other sweet
eners are honey, molasses, sorghum,
maple syrup and glucose, which may
be used either singly or in combina
tion with sugar.
Molasses and sorghum give charac
teristic flavors to the products in
which thev are used and should be
utilized in canninig plums and other
very acid fruits. Corn syrups are
less sweet and give a more tart prod
uct. When honey is used, the flavor is
slightly noticeable but a very rich
product results.
For a thin syrup the combination
should be in the ratio of four cups of
water to one-half cup of sugar and
one cup ot otner sweetener, ror a
medium syrup only 3 cups of water
should be used.
Even if other lines have to suffer
the Nebraska Food administration
will see that there is sugar for can
ning and preserving. Definite restric
tions, however, are being placed on
the certificates issued. Applicants are
asked to take as little sugar as they
can possibly use and to come for cer
tificates oftener.?
Raid Leavenworth Street
Drink Stand; Find Booze
Sunday night the morals squad un
der Sergeant Anderson raided the
soft drink parlor of Chris Peterson,
2229 Leavenworth street,, and con
fiscated several quart bottles of whis
ky. The charge of the unlawful pos
session of an intoxicant was preferred
against reterson. v
M. Paulson, street car conductor,
2408 Ames avenue, was arrested on
the charge of transporting liquor
from Peterson's house to the soft
drink stand. Paulson told the police
that Peterson asked him to go to his
house and get a package and that he
had no idea that it contained liquor.
"I'm the fall guy," he told the
police, "and had I known that there
was booze in the package I would

some way of rescuing you.'
There was a big burst of applause
as the dance ended, and Peggy, to
her embarrassment, found that a
large share of it was for her. Every
one was eager to throw their pen
nies into the hat which Tags passed
around, and the tramp was shrewd
enough to see that Peggy was a real
drawing card.
"Dance some more," he said to her,
with an evil smile. "I'll give you a
nickel. '
Peggy shrank away from him. It
would be horrible to have to obey
such a dirty creature as he was. She
pitied Lonesome Bear with all her
heart.
The tramp came close to her.
"Dance, I tell vou," he hissed. "I'll
give you mony if you do, and I'll cut
your ears off if you don't." He scowl
ed so horribly that Peggy gave a lit
tle cry of fear and pressed back into
the crowd. Lonesome Bear growled
at the tramp and showed his teeth.
The tramp prodded him cruelly with
his stick, doubling him up. I

of the old and new crops, will pur
chase all sugar at the old price and

The increase to consumers, it has
been said, will not amount to more

"Here, none of that! spoke up a
man. "That bear is more human
than you are, you brute. Clear out
before I call the police."
The word "police" had a magical
effect on the trtmp. He looked up
and down the street aj though fright
ened, then hurried away as fast as he
could, dragging Lonesome Bear be
hind him.
"I'll save you," cried Peggy to
Lonesome Bear.
But how was she. going to do it?
Perhaps the Birds could help her.
The first thing was to find where the
tramp was taking his captive. Try
ing to keep out of sight, like a detec
tive, she followed Tags. The tramp
was evidently very much afraid of
the police, for he looked back fre
quently as he made straight for the
country, and Peggy had to dodge
quickly to avoid discovery.
After a time thejr came to a woods,
and here the tramp and bear disap
peared from view.
It was lonesome in the woods and
scary. What if the tramp and his
companions were hiding behind a
tree? Peggy stopped and listened
Yes, there was the sound of a break
ing twig. She turned to run, only to
find herself in the hands of two other
tramps, with Tags right behind them
Now we have you, my pretty
danced," sneered Tags. "With a pair
like you and the bear we II soon grow
rich. Bring her to camp."
Peggy gave a wild shriek for help.
Instantly the tramps stuffed her
handkerchief into her mouth and tied
it fast with her hair ribbon. Like
Lonesome Bear, she was a helpless
captive. Perhaps, like him, she
would be carried far away from home
and family. There was no one to aid
her.
"Princess Peggy, we'll save you,"
shrieked voices from the air. General
and Mrs. Swallow were poised just
above her.
"Go tell Billy Belgium," shrilled
General Swallow to his wife. "I'll
rally the Bird army to rescue our
Princess 1"
Away flew Mrs. Swallow at top
speed as the tramps dragged Peggy
deep into the woods. ,

John Huff Recovers
Automobile Stolen
In Iowa Last July
John Huff, Taylorville, la., has re
covered his automobile, stolen from
Wheaton, la., on or about July 22,
P. H. Leonard, sheriff of Traverse
county, and Huff came to Omaha
Sunday to identify and claim the
car. ,
The Huff car was recovered a few
days ago near the Oxford hotel, but
the thief eluded the detectives. A
search of his room netted two suit
cases in which were found letters that
furnished considerable information
concerning the man's movements and
business. From the tenor of the
letters the detectives believe that he
was not only engaged in stealing
automobiles, but was a member of an
organized gang of white slavrs
which has its headquarters in am
eastern city.
The detective department is now
in communication with the officials
and expects to locate the thief within
a short time.

GRANGE CHURCH
DESECRATED AND
FLAG TORN DOWN
Officers of the Law Take Case
In Hand and Propose to
Hunt Down Parties to
Outrage.
The Grange church in Boomer
township, 14 miles north of Council
Blufls, has been broken open, its al
tar violated and a big American flag
back of the pulpit torn down and des
ecrated. The desecration of the
church was unquestionably for the
purpose of showing the hatred of the
persons who did it for the American
flag.
The Grange church is undenomina
tional and is used by many religious
organizations. It is a handsome lit
tle hjiilding on a picturesque site and
is as modern as such a building can
be. The congregation is intensely
patriotic and a service flag on which
there are 25 stars occupies a place on
the wall by the side of Old Glory.
On the right of it is a big Liberty
flag.
Flag Torn Down.
The church was?violated last Sun
day night, a week ago. The buildin
was opened during the afternoon for
the funeral of Mrs. Killpack, mother
of W. 11 Killpack, Council Bluffs
The clergyman, standing at the altar
with theflags at his back, could not
avoid making a patriotic address as
he extolled, the character of Mrs.
Killpack.
The church was not opened again
until Wednesday, and it was not un
til then that the discovery was made
that the Huns had been there. The
big flag had been ripped from the
wall and torn, and, twisted into a
rope, soiled and dirty. It had been
wound around the knob of the frnnr
door. Other flags had been disturb
ed, but not mutilated.
After dejecratinir the flat? the van.
dais looted the church. Two of the
lamps, two new brooms and the ex
pensive grave cloth connected with
the lowering device and used to con
ceal the sides of the grave when the
casket is being lowered, were taken.
a nandbag left in a pew bv some
woman who attended the funeral and
later hung on the door knob was
also taken.
