said DR.. Miller. 1T is true an effort was
made to get the business men interested
in hopes they might contribute the $500
or so requisite to maintain the force for
the remainder OF the year. With the ex-
ception of Count Creighton and one or two
others who offered to- put in $500 apiece,
there has been no response. Apparently
nearly all the really influential and solid
commercial factors OF the city are holding
aloof and exhibiting no interest In the
matter Of policing the town.
AT the very best and up to its full
strength our police department is altogether
too small to insure the maintenance of good
order in Omaha. Last winter when the
charter revisionists were busy l had the
facts in the matter revealed to Herman
Kountze and he was much surprised that
a city One-third as great in area as Lon
don should have only ffty-eight regular
patrolmen to watch its streets twenty-four
hours in the day. l thought he would
come out openly and favor Chief Donahue's
move to have the police fund increased
from S115,OO0 to $4,000. but l do not know
that he. or other wealthy men ineS. ested in
the new charter, did so. l do know the
limit OF the police fund was not increased.

fortunate situation.

Thirty-fve officers OF the Omaha police
force were laid on for an indefinite time
by the Board OF Fire and Police Commits
sioners at a meeting held yesterday after
noon. The list begins with Captain Haze
and Affects nearly every alternate man In
the order in which their names appear on
the October detail sheet. The effective
policing force OF the city Is practically cut
into halves. a number OF the men being
used IN the jail crew and the total OF
ninety-two including the chief, clerks and
attaches.
An estimated shortage OF from $500 TO
$4,000 In the police fund for the year is the
cause for the reduction. The deficit is
caused by changes in the last city charter
preventing money realized from back taxes
going in the current years funds.

The reduction will take effect today.
While the orders to the chief are clear and
definite and the chief will proceed to exc

make no secret that they anticipate posi-
bic assistance from the city council and the
city legal department. Before the resolu-
ton was adopted and the men tolled on

with the commissioners behind closed doors.

to have the city council make provision
for keeping on the entire police force for

afternoon a number of millers from
various parts of the state, and some
from Minnesota, met in this city for a
conference and the discussion of mat
ters bearing upon the milling interests
of this part of the northwest. Geo.
SeXauer. of Brookings, presided, and
during the session much valuable in
formation to those directly concerned
was cleaned from brief addresses and
the relation of experiences in the mill
and grain business. The last year was
one of unusual hardship to many mill
men because of the scarcity of a good
quality of milling wheat. but there is
reason for great rejoicing over condi-
tons now prevailing, and the present
year gives promise of being one of
exceptional success and profit to those
interested in the grain and milling in
1ustry in this section of the country.

BREAD FROM

Miller. S. D., Sept. 4.-Twenty-ive
cents less q bushel for than
other wheat is causing loud complaint
here from the farmers, who believe that
the big mills are mixing and grinding
it with the other wheat for their best
flour. They believe that prejudice is
making its lower price. This belief is
strengthened since the BrookingS col-
lege issued u special bulletin on maca-
roni bread experiments. The bulletin
treats e~Xhaustiveiy on the subject from
a scientific standpoint. 1t says that the
uses of the macaroni wheat are more
extended than those of the wheats used
for that purpose. Then some OF the
macaroni wheats make elegant bread.
bread that is scarcely eGualed by the
best of the bread wheatS AS a rule
the products from m;icaroni wheat are
richer in protein or muscle building ma
teriai than amy of the bread wheats.
but in order to satisfy the American
trade demand a rigid course of selection
must be resorted to in choosing the
macaroni variety which will Nove
most satisfactory. 1t is now well known
that macarcni WheatS are pre-eminent-
ly dry weather wheats. In certain
years rust and smut ruin the more ten
der wheatS. AS "A rule the macaronf
wheats are strongly resistant TO these
adverse crop conditions and il now re-
mains to select from the available
durums such as give the hest results
when used for the trade demands" The
bulletin is full of figures and tables. 1t
has pictures of macaroni bread in the
different stages of making. The state
chemist, Professor Shepard, is its auth
or. For the farmers to be thus told
that nlacaroni is all right and to be-
lieve that it is being made into choice
flour when bought at such Il reduction
is stirring up some bad blood. but they
will SOW it again next year in the hope
that by the time another crop is ready
for market the price will be equal with
that of other wheat. 1T was not en-
irely free of blight here this year.
