Dairy Interests
to Hold Meeting
Methods of Utilizing the Large
. Increase in Products v, ill
He Discusser.
Lincoln, March 16. (Special.)
Methods of utilizing; the large in
crease in dairy product in the last
six mouths will be dincussed at a
state-wide conference of dairymen
called by Leo Stuhr, secretary of
agriculture, in Lincoln, March a..
"The report received by thi de
partnient within the last six month
show that there ha been a material
increase in production of dairy
product in this state," Stuhr said.
"Thi increase in production was
proliably largely due to the financial
stringency which hsf existed and
which affected the farmer more seri
ously than other lines of industry,
and which has been the cause of
the increasing; size of dairy herds,
so that ready money might be real
ized from these products. This in
crease ranges from 20 to 30 per cent
over the production of a year ago.
"It can be easily realized that this
increase in production will be greater
during the summer months. It i
tor this reason that it is deemed ad
visable by thi department that the
various interests directly concerned
in the dairy industry should know
these facts so that possibly some ac
tion may be taken to remedy the sit
uation by stimulating the consump
tion of dairy products.

Reduction of Taxes
Nebraska Problem
(Continued From Pace One.)
the law ha been adequately financed.
ine blue sky law has been tight
ened up to give investors better De
tection and end the- scandalous
frauds of promoters. In 1917 noth
ing wa spent for this numose. the
railway commission passing on ap
plications to sell stock. Last year
$37,217 was used for the bureau of
securities. It is but fair to state
that most of the failures have re
sulted from early charters.
According to the most careful es
timates, the state government re
ceives 19 cents out of every $1 paid
in as taxes. Of these 19- cents edu
cational institutions received S cents,
more than one-fourth. The Uni
versity of Nebraska has been built
into one of the leading state uni
versities of America with a splendid
faculty and an enrollment of 7,500
students. The expenditure for this
school has increased $825,927 since
1917. Taxpayers devoted $2,092,927
to its support in 1921.
Normals More Expensive.
Some mav ouestion whether Ne.
braska needs four normal schools
and if money would not be saved
by conducting them all under one
roof. However that mav be. in 1921
the support of these institutions for
training teachers has cost the oeo-
ple of Nebraska $258,407 more than
before the war. A further item for
education consists of state aid to lo
cal schools. This consists of sub
sidies to weak schools and to schools
giving normal training and the like.
In 1917, $94,000 was devoted to this
purpose; last year the bill was $187,-000.
Three cents out of the .19 cents
of the Nebraska tax dollar goes to
the maintenance of state institutions,
penal and charitable, and the re
formatory. Two new institutions
have been established since the war,
one for first offenders and another
for wayward women,
Supplies Are Higher.
It is explained that the cost of
supplies, also, has risen. This does
not cure the pain in the citizens
pocketbook which comes from the fact
that the board of control spent ?2,
26,790 for this purposfr-m 1921. This
represents an increase of $718,000
since iyi.
The prohibitory laws' called for
dded vigilance in law enforcement.
This resulted in 1917 in the appro
priation of $25,000. Last year the
tate sheriff s office consumed $45,-
000. To balance this it has been
shown that counties have received
fines amounting to $185,000. The
im received from confiscation or
utomobiles seized for 1 carrying
liquor in 1921 amounted to $21,000,
which sum also went to the coun
ties. Fines and automobile license
money totalling $40,000 were obtain
ed for the state highway department.
The federal - government, it Is
claimed, was enabled to collect $94,
000 in liquor fines through this en
forcement oftice. Another work has
been the recovery of stolen motor
cars. The value of machines re
turned to owners through the aid ot
the state's index of stolen cars Is
said to be $129,000. ... -
Bridges Cost More.
Stale aid for bridges total $175,
C00 last year, an increase of $74,000.
The special session cut $150,000
off the total appropriation for the
biennium. This means that only
$25,000 will be levied in' 1922.
A number of smaller items helped
inflate the tax balloon of 1921. One
of these was the increase in salaries
due to the change in the constitution
and the increased number of district
judges. In the old days the gov
ernor was paid $2,500. Today he
receives $7,500. Other state officers,
including the judges of the state
supreme court, received increases,
adding a total of $127,000 over 1917.
When this expenditure for state gov
ernment, is pointed out for criticism
the reply is made that it receives
only 4 cents out of each. $1 paid in
for taxes.
Tax laws have been revised and
the work more centralized. This ef
fort at efficiency has resulted in an
expense of $16,000, where before
only $2,775 was expended. A re
vised issue of the statutes added an
other $20,000. Faring about state
institutions . took $50,000 - more.
Thus the comparison eit past and
present stands.

Don't Let
That Cold Turn
Into "Flu"
Rub On Good Old Musterole.
That cold may turn into "Flu,"
Grippe or, even worse, Pneumonia,
unless you take care of it at once.
Rub good old Musterole on the
congested parts and see how quickly
it brings relief.
Colds are merely congestion. Mus
terole, made from pure oil of mus
tard, camphor, menthol and other
simple ingredients, is a counter-irritant
which restores circulation
promptly and helps break up the
cold.
As effective as the messy old mus
tard plaster, it does the work with
out the mustard plaster's sting and
blister.
During .the "Flu" epidemic a few
years ago Musterole was used in
our training camps. The Y. M. C. A.
War Board sent thousands of jars
to France for our soldiers overseas.
Doctors have been recommending
it to their patients for years for
colds, aches and pains.
Just rub it on with your finger
tips. You will feel a warm tingle as
it enters the pores, then a cooling
sensation that brings welcome relief.
Your druggist has Musterole; 35c
and 65c, in jars and tubes; hospital
size, $3.00.
