Yield Of Wheat Good In Quantity and
OuaIity-Corn Grows Well.
United States Department Of Agri-
culture, Nebraska Section, Climate and
Crop Service of the Weather Bureau
Weekly Crop Bulletin-University Of
Nebraska, Lincoln, July 10.-General
summary:
The past week has been hot, with
heavy showers in eastern counties.
The daily mean temperature has av-
eraged 5 degrees above normal. The
maximum temperatures for the week
generally exceed 100 degrees in
southern counties and were but little
below 100 degrees in the northern.
The rainfall of the past week has
been heavy in southeastern counties,
varying from one to nearly six inch
es; in the northern and western coun-
ties it has generally been less than
half an inch.
Winter wheat harvest is nearly
completed and thresh1ng has COM
menced in southern counties; the yield
is good in both quantity and quail
ity. Spring wheat and oats have
been considerably damaged by chinch
bugs and dry weather in central and
southwestern counties, and in many
fields these crops will be about a fail
ure. In some places chinch bugs r
leaving the wheat fields and attacking
the corn. Corn has been damaged
slightly in a few southwestern
ties by the hot weather of the past
week; generally, however, corn has
grown we'll and in a large part of the
state has grown very rapidly. Corn
is small for this time of year.

THE NATIONAL GUARD ENCAMPMENT
Adjutant General Colby Goes on a Tour
of Investigation.

LINCOLN, Neb., July 10.-Adjutant
General Colby will make a trip in
northwestern Nebraska for the pur-
pose of visiting several sites that
have been proposed as suitable and
desirable for the next annual en-
campment Of the Nebraska National
guard. He will leave the railroad at
Valentine and travel southwark
through the cluster of lakes lea -
ergreen creek, in the eastern section
Of Cherry county, and from there he
will go westward along Snake river
and other branches Of the NiObrara
river. This territory includes the
widest and most secluded scenery in
the state. 1t is about midway be-
tween the main northwestern lines of
the Elkhorn and Burlington railroads.
Several wooded spots along Dismal
creek, which flows through Blaine,
Hooker and Thomas counties, have
also been suggested and General Colby
may visit them before he returns.
We wish to locate the encampment
where it will not benefit one railroad
to the exclusion Of all Others" said
General Colby. "The places sugge sted
in Cherry county meet all require
ments that cannot be found anywhere
else. They are isolated and far from
numerous lakes all along the creeks
in Cherry county and the water is al
ways clear and cool and i~nvigorating.

NEBRASKA'S GAME LAW
Deputy Simpkins Outlines Plan for tt
Enforcement.
NEW ENACTMENT NOW IN Effect
Annual Encampmont OF the National
More or Less Interest.

LINCOLN, Neb., July 10.-Members
Of the Nebraska Fish commission met
in the office of Deputy Warden Simp-
kins and outlined plans for enforcing
the provisions Of the new game law,
which went into effect July 1. So far
as known there will be no organized
efforts on the part of the market hunt
ers to violate the law, but all of the
under deputies have been instructed
to be on the lookout and if any one
is found shooting or attempting to
shoot for the market he will be
promptly arrested and vigorously pros
ecuted.
Under the new law the deputy game
warden is held responsible for the
management of the state fish hatcher
les. Several changes in the admins
tration of this institution have been
proposed and the commission will
probably meet next week to give them
consideration. Complaints against
Superintendent O'Brien will also be
given attention at the next meeting.
Governor Savage and Deputy Game
Simpkins refuse to disclose
the nature of these complaints until
after the accused has had a hearing.

Demand for Refund of War Stamps
Makes Business Brisk.
OMAHA, Neb., July 10.-The de-
mand for the refund of money used
in the purchase Of stamps under the
war revenue law which are not re-
CURED under the amendments to that
law which went into effect July 1, is
keeping the office force Of the inter-
nal revenue collector busy.
1t is estimated that in this dis
trict there are $4,000 in stamps sub
iect to redemption, but these stamps
are so scattered that the redeeming
Of them is a slow process. Applica-
tons for refunds come from people
holding hundreds of dollars in stamps
and from those whose total refund will
not exceed 25 cents and the work re-
quired in each case is the ame
1t is believed that the revenues of
the government will be swelled to a
marked extent over estimates by the
failure Of many persons to have their
money refunded, as in many cases
the time necessary to prepare the nee
essary papers is Of greater value
than the stamps to be redeemed. The
redemption of these stamps coming at
the beginning of the fiscal year when
the force is busy preparing the reports
for the year just closed, together with
the fact that several new clerks are be-
ing instructed in the duties of the Of
fee, consequent upon the change in
the head of the Omaha office, keeps
the force at work overtime.

COFFEE Is TO GO IN FREE.
Ruling of the Treasury Department
Gives Foreign Shippers Chance,

UiSeS roEeISu ShippeIS ShdnCos
WASHINGTON, July 12.-Under a
ruling of the Treasury department cof-
fee shipped from the United States to
Porto Rico will be admitted into Por-
to Rico free of duty as soon as free
trade is proclaimed between the United
States and that island.
This in practice will result likely in
all coffee shipped into Porto Rico
from any country being admitted free
of duty. Although the Porto Rican
tariff provides for a duty of 5 cents a
pound on all coffee imported from a
foreign country, it is expected that
coffee importers will take advantage Of
the fact that coffee is admitted free
into the United States and ship their
coffee into the United States and
thence to Porto Rico, thus avoiding
the duty which would be imposed if
SHIPPED from a foreign country direct to
Porto Rico.

Hitchcock Telegraplis There
can Be No Postponement.
WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE
complaints from land Offices in Okla
homa other than Ell Reno and Lawton
that they should be allowed to make
registrations from the opening of the
reservations are regarded officially as
not well founded. The matter was
taken up some weeks ago and Delegate
Flynn at the time unsuccessfully en-
deavored to have the other Oklahoma
Offices included.
It is claimed here that the reports
Of the number of cattle on the land
to be opened has been exaggerated
and chat there are in fact on the
Wichita reservation only $4,000 head.
The opening of certain lands on Au-
gust 6, which stockmen are seeking to
have postponed, is mandatory. A
large part of the $4,000 head on the
Wichita lands, it is claimed, car be
SHIPPED to market by the allotted time
and the rest moved down to the XII
owa grazing lands. which will not be
thrown open to settlement.
