mercial potato crop report made
public here today by the United
States bureau of crop . estimates.
The crop was damaged to the ex
tent of 10 per cent by freezing on
October 10, the report says. Most
of this loss was confined to the un
harvested potatoes in Box Butte,
Sheridan and Dawes counties.
There was some loss in pits not
properly protected. The . irrigated
sections escaped with a slight dam
age. . Kinball and Brown counties
report very little, if any, loss. Com
mercial shipments are expected to
approximate 50 per cent of. last
year. This is only slightly less
than estimated a month ago, as the
yields are better in the irrigated
sections than earlier reports indi
cated, which offsets partially the
loss from the freeze. Most of the
dry land potatoes are grading No.
2, while a large per centiof the irri
gated potatoes grade No. 1. The
total crop is estimated to average
35 per cent of No. 1, 55 per cent of
No. 2 and 10 per cent culls.
Conditions In U. S.
"The condition for the United
States shows some changes over
last month. Larger yields per lcre
in New York. Maine and Pennsyl
vania offset largely the damage from
rot in some counties ot those states.
The earlot movemeent from those
states may exceed earlier estimates.
Increased vield per acre over earlier
estimates are reported in Michigan,
while Wisconsin and Minnesota re
port lower yields and some frost
damage, with a probable decrease in
carlot movement out of these states
from earlier estimates. Nebraska
suffered loss from a freeze also, but
will probably ship as many cars as
estimated, owing to the higher yield
in the irrigated sections tnan ex
pected. "The western states show a de
crease in production from former
estimates. Frost damage in Mon
tana, drouth and lack of irrigation
water in Idaho, disease and freeze in
late October in Washington, and
lighter yield than was estimated in
California are the chief reasons for
the decrease.
"A final quantative estimate of the
late or winter commercial potato
crop will be made in December.

ARGUE FOREIGN
LANGUAGE LAW
IN HIGH COURT
Constitutionality . of Siman
Bill Attacked by Sec
tarian School
Attorneys.
Lincoln, Nov. 17. (Special.)
The well known foreign language
case was argued Monday before the
state supreme court. 'It hinges
purely on the constitutionality of
the law passed by the last legisla
ture, known as the "Siman lan
guage law," introduced by Senator
H. E. Siman of Winside. The law
prohibits the teaching of foreign
languages in schools below the
.ninth grade, and comes to the su
preme court on appeal from the
district court of Douglas countv.
Attorneys for the Lutheran synod
and several Catholic schools of
Omaha attack the constitutionality
of the law on the following points:
Quote Constitutional Rights.
Because it violates Section 11 of
Article 3 of the state constitution,
which reads that "No bill shall con
tain more than one subject and the
same shall be clearly expressed in
the title;" because it violates the pro
visions of Section IS of Article 3,
which says that: "the legislature
shall not pass local or special laws
in any of the following cases:
granting o any corporation, asso
ciation or Individual any special or
exclusive privileges, immunities or
franchises whatever;" it violates
Section 4, Article 1, which reads that
"all persons have a natural and in
defeasible right to worship God ac
cording to the dictates of their own
conscience and it is the duty of the
legislature to protect every religious
denomination in the peaceable en
joyment of its own mode of religi
ous worship and to encourage
schools 'and the means of instruc
tion;" that Section 1, Article 1,
reads: "All persons are by nattlre
free and independent and -have cer
tain inherent aiid inalienable rights,
among these are life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness;" and because it
is contrary to the fourteenth amend
ment to the federal constitution.
In the argument Judge I. L. Al
bert said that the enforcement of
such a law would deprive the young
men and women of the country
when they were children and had
their ambition to be foreign mis
sionaries, from learning the lan
guage of the country where they
might want to work and would also
work a hardship on those who could
not understand the English lan
guage in the home.
Makes Convincing Talk.
One of the most convincing
speeches made on either side was
that of Representative Byrum, ap
pearing for the law. Mr. Byrum
spoke for a half hour. He was. fol
lowed by Arthur Mullen, speaking
on the other side.
Mr. Byrum said that the object of
the law was to teach the children
how to read the declaration of inde
pendence Lincoln's Gettysburg
address and other great American
documents.
Attorneys who spoke for the law
were A. H. Byrum and Deputy At
torney General Ayers. Those who
opposed the bill were Judge Albert
and Judge A. M. Post of Columbus
and Arthur Mullen and Joseph Vo
tavia of Omaha.
Charge Fraud in Sale
Of Bank Stock;
Cashier Is Arrested
Beatrice, Neb., Nov. 17. (Spe-r
cial Telegram.) Frank E. Leffer
dink, who recently disposed of. his
stock in the Farmers and Mer
chants bank of Wymore to V. B.
Rogers, was arrested at Spencer,
la. by Sheriff Schiek and brought
here for trial. The complaint
against Lefferdink was filed by Mr.
Rogers, who charges him with
fraudulently misrepresenting the
condition of the Wymore bank
when he sold the stock. Mr. Rogers
charges that soon after he pur
chased an interest in the bank he
found about $18,000 in loans to the
Evans Auto company, which went
into the hands of a receiver here
recently. Lefferdink is a brother
of W. L. Lefferdink, who, with
others, is alleged to have been im
plicated in the failure of the State
bank at Salina, Kan., some time ago.

TIME LIMIT SET
FOR MAKING TEST
OF DAIRY COWS
Department of , Agriculture
Taking Necessary Steps
, For Enforcement of
New Law.
Lincoln, Nov. 17. (Special.)
Testing of dairy cows has been one
of the problems which the State
department of agriculture has found
it hard to handle. The new dairy
law, passed by the last legislature,
became effective July 18, 1919. One
of the provisions of the law re
quires dealers in milk and cream to
obtain an annual license from the
department of agriculture in all
cases where the product in whole or
in part is sold to be consumed as
milk or cream when produced from
a herd consisting of more than five
cows and does not apply to herds of
five or less cows. Covering the
matter fully, Secretary Stuhr of the
department has issued the follow
ing:
The law alsq provides that no milk shall
be sold which" has been taken, (a) from
any animal having any disease or slck-nef-s;
(b) Irom any animal which has not
been examined by a duly llcenaed veterin
arian, arid certified by him to be free
from direasp, within not to exceed one
year previously. Milk which hasl been
taken from any animal which has not
been examined by a licensed veterinarian,
must be pastuerlzed before It Is offered
sale. This latter provision applies to the
pale of all milk and cream regardless of
the aize of the herd from which It Is
produced, whenever the product ta sold
to he consumed as milk and cream.
The policy of the department of Agri
culture has been to Rive ample time to the
owrera of dairy cows, in which to have
the same tested. An effort has also been
made to co-operate with local officials
specially the boards of health, who would
naturally be Interested In the enforcement
of the provisions of the dairy law. Mem
bers of these boards are requested to In
form the department of any violations of
the above provisions or any others of the
dairy law, so that prompt action can be
taken In enforcing this measure.
The licensed veterinarians are requested
to co-operate In every way possible and
especially in the way of designating a
certain day at which time cowa can be
hunched in one place, bo that the rates
for testing will be as small as possible for
the owners of these small herds. Veterin
arians are also requested to ahere to the
scale of fees for such tests as have been
recommended by the Bureau of Animal
Industry of this department.
County agents are asked to co-operate
by giving every assistance possible to the
owners of dairy cows. In bunching them at
convenient places and at designated times
so that the fee for testing can be reduced
to a minimum and not be a burden, especi
al!" to the one cow or small herd owners.
This is a subject in which everyone is
vitally Interested. The owners of dairy
herds should be interested in knowing that
their herd is free from desease; the public
at large Is Interested In obtaining the beat
quality of milk possible, so that everyone
should co-operate in every way possible
and assist In carrying out the provisions
of the dairy law. '
It has been deemed advisable to set a
date prior to which dealers of milk must
he licensed and dairy oows must be tested.
This date has been et for February 1,
1920. After this date it will become neces
sary for the department of Agriculture to
prosecute violations of the above provisions
of the dairy law.

tive of 1,000-horsepower that uses
