Howls Your Weight?
While it is true that too raufh weight
is not to be desired yet the facf remains
that many men and women are thin to the
point of danger. This danger lies in their
having no reserve force or nerve power to
combat deadly diseases.. A little extra
flesh is needed by all to feel well and to
look well, and this' calls up the question of
how best to increase the weight. Physi
cians and chemists by experiments have
solved the problem of increasing the white
and red corpuscles of the blood by the ad
ministration of S grain hypo-nuclane tab
lets, and this is usually followed by an in
crease ofweicht. Obtain in sealed pack
ages, and take for a period of several
months, according to directions with pack

BumperHay Crop in
Western Nebraska
O'Neill, Neb., April 29. (Spe-cial.)v-Holt
county, which is the
leading hay producing county in the
state, already is assured a hay crop
bigger than any for the past several
years. .The floods in the Elkhorn,
Niobrara and their tributaries are
responsible, as the vast hay
meadows have been under water for
a week or more, enabling the young
grass to get a better than usual
start. This year's crop of market
hay will aggregate 350,000 tons, ac
cording to hay men. The ranges
also are in excellent condition, ac
cording to the ranchmen of the
southern and central sections of the
county, in which stock' raising is one
of the principal industries.
The floods, aside from: the dam
age to highways and bridges, did lit
tle other damage in the county arid
the waters now are receding rapidly.
The pleasant, clear and slightly
windy weather of the last few days
already hag dried up'he fields suf
ficiently for farmers to get into
them in most localities and the small
grain crops are being planted.

Stage Big Crow Hunt Soon
O'Neill. Neb., April 29. (Special.)
Holt county sportsmen and farms.

to be staged within the next' three
weeks. The hunt will be under the
direction of James McPharlin, vet
eran sportsman of this city, who has
made a study of bird life and agrees
with the farmers that crows are
more destructive than beneficial,
preying mostly on the nests and
young ot other birds, rather than
upon insect life, and that they are
carriers and spreaders of livestock
and bird diseases through their pref
erence for carrion. Crows have"
been on the increase in certain sec
tions of the county the last few
years, during which no crow nunts
were held. the hunts iormerly
were annual events.

Sneakers representing the sides

meeting of the Concord club in the

that no forced solution of the high
price problem can be reached.
John W. Gamble, vice president
of the First National bank, speaking
for the financial interests, and Col.
T. W. McCullough of The Bee,
speaking from the standpoint of
conservative organized labor, both
stated that the solution to. high
prices and inflated values cannot be
settled by resolutions at meetings
of those concerned, but must be
worked out according to economic
iaws.
Mr. Gamble, who spoke first, said
that the proposed meeting of repre
sentatives of capital and labor for
the purpose of working out a plan
for reducing prices was a good idea
but would have no value in the
present situation.
Colonel McCullough advised the
members ot the club that represen
tatives of labor are always willing
to meet with representatives of
their employers. , There are funda
mental differences between them
that will always exist, he said, but
agreements for stated periods ad
vantageous to both can be arranged.
Under-production , and over-consumption
are responsible for the
present inflated prices, he said.
