THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: MARCH 2, 1919.
OMAHA TO HAVE
$1,000,000 HOG
INSURANCE GO.
Sufficient Capital Already
Raised to Guarantee Suc
cess of the Big Un
dertaking. A group of representative busi
ness men and farmers have formed
a $1,000,000 hog insurance company,
which expects to insure a large per
centage of the one-quarter of the
world's hog supply situated in the
nine Corn Belt stales, surrounding
Omaha.
Not only will the farmers' hogs he
protected, but the feed which he has
in the cribs and pens and on which
insurance ordinarily ceases when
fed to hogs both will now be pro
tected and the farmers will be as
sured of getting hogs to the mar
ket.
To insure a pig at a living rate
from its sticking to its market stage
has been the dream of hog raisers
for years. Such hopes are soon to
be realized through this company
which has been organized in Ne
braska along sound financial lines
and officered by some of the best
and most responsible business men
of this state.
Under the same plan each person
may buy a limited number of shares
in order to distribute the stockhold
ers all over the state, preference be
ing given to such men as are ac
tually engaged in farming. Sufficient
capital has already been raised to
make the company an assured suc
cess.
Arrangements are being made to
deposit the legal reserve with the
state insurance commission. Seven
hundred and fifty Nebraska bankers
have expressed in some form or
other their jjesire to co-operate on
this matter to important to them
loans having been impracticable
heretofore. This is now possible.
The following are some of the in
corporators and prominent stock
holders: J. DeForest Richards, of
the Alamo Farm Light Co.; Robert
B. Zachary, a well known western
banker and loan man; Charles F. W.
Schwager, former president of the
Alamito Dairy Co.; Fred L. Tubbs,
F. E. Pratt, president Golden Rod
Creamery, Fremont; A. L. Haecker,
secretary Nebraska Creamerymen's
association; George B. Dyball, mem
ber of the gtate legislature; Yale
Holland, Charles II. Mullin, Arthur
English, Tom Kelly, and others.
Mr. Schwager and Mr. Zachary
will devote their entire time to this
institution.

Supreme Court Rules
That Omaha Attorney
Has Only One Spouse
J. E. Von Dorn, Omaha attorney,
won his matrimonial case which
was taken to the state supreme
court on an appeal from the decision
of the district court in Omaha. The
supreme court's reversal of the
lower court in effect establishes that
he now has, and has had for some
time, only one wife.
Mrs. Louise Von Dorn, nee Miller,
obtained a divorce from Von Dorn
in 1908, at which time Von Dorn
states he paid her $18,000 in settle
ment. Thereafter, for a period of
two years, Von Dorn and his di
vorced wife lived in the same house,
merely for convenience in the mat
ter of reducing living expenses, he
contended.
Von Dorn later married Nellie
Rubin, and seven years from the
date of that marriage the former
Mrs. Von Dorn brought an action to
have the second marriage annulled
on the ground that after her divorce
she and von Dorn lived together as
man and wife. In her second action
Mrs. Von Dorn No. 1 wanted $10,
000. She was upheld in the lower
court, but Mr. V on Dorn has won on
his appeal to the supreme court.
The former Mrs. Von Dorn is to
retain possession of the home at
Seventeenth and Sprague streets.
and the supreme court upheld ali
mony in the sum ot 40 per month.
Mr. Von Dorn asserts, however, that
he will resist the payment of that
alimony on the grounds that it was
tor the support of a child who is now
living in his present home.
Omaha Girl in Buenos Aires
During Bolshevik Trouble
Ruth Sheldon. Omaha girl, in Y.
VV. C. A. work in Buenos Aires,
was in the midst of the bolshevik-
uprising in the South American city
the first ot the year.
"There is as much shooting as on
the Fourth of July in ye olden
times, Miss Sheldon wrote to Miss
Irma Gross of Central high school
faculty in a letter dated January 11
and just received.
Miss Sheldon instituted the first
gymnasium department in Buenos
Aires. "It is quite like a North
American city, not nearly so old
fashioned as Rio de Janeiro," she
wrote.
It Led Then and
Leads Now
Hudson Super-Six Gained Its Leadership
on the Speedway. It Maintains It
With 60,000 Users
The records Hudsons made in the tests that prove endurance are
just as important today as they were when made two and three
years ago. ,
That was the only way then in which it could be proved a life car.
The abuse which only the speedway and the hardest touring and hili
climbing would reveal in a few hours had to be used to demonstrate
Hudson limits of endurance. Ordinary driving was too slow.
Now 60,000 inert through .very kind of service and neglect are individually con
firming what was shown in thoia test. They have established the leadership of Hud
on Super-Six in every way that provei performance and long life.
Rivals' Imitations Make It the Pattern Car
Every car produced since Hudson Super.Six design showed the importance of min
imizing motor vibration, as it does with its exclusive motor, has reflected Hudson lead
ership. First it was mechanical leadership. Now it is in body designing as well, that
others look to Hudson.
This year's auto shows reveal that influence. Comparison of most cars with earlier
Hudson models show it. Present Hudson models in such types as the Sedan, the Tour
ing Limousine, Coupe and others are regarded as forecasts of what others will offer
next fall.
When you get a Hudson you may expect to see a similar type on models which
others bring out six months to a year hence. But there is a shortage of Hudsons this
spring as there has been every spring for the past three years. You should speak
early to assure delivery.
