Presentation of Diplomats 9Th grade by

A great big rain" began weather re-

able efforts made by the speakers.
The reading by Mrs. Moore was a
felicitious compliment to both the gradu-
ates and the listening throng.
Supt. Pinckney's address proved not
only "chock full" of good things for the
boys and girls awaiting presentation OF
their diplomas, but kept the crowded
church much interested. We do not re-

Wheat may not be kept up to
the dollar mark, but there are
several elements which have
that tendency, and even a higher
point may be reached if the out
look for the spring crop should
be discouraging. There is a
shortage of foreign wheat, the
winter wheat belt has undoubted-
ly.sutfered and the crop is short.
The spring wheat crop is late
and depends more than usual on
the weather conditions from now
until harvest. Altogether the
wheat situation is favorable to
the bull interests in the market,
and the speculative features will
be interesting from now until the
first part of August.

The system of handling jurors
and their treatment is disgrace
to the courts. The jury system,
itself, is one of the hazy tradi-
tions of the past that might
much better be supplanted by a
trial before three men learned in
law. But if the system is to be
retained, why the necessity of
treating every juror like he was
criminal? IT the juror is an
honorable man, intelligent
enough to sit at a trial, accept
able to the court, the prosecution
and the defense, why does be
Immediately become such an
object of distrust and suspicion
the moment he is sworn in? The
juror is not permitted to go to
his home for his meals nor to his
bed at night; he is not allowed
to walk alone ON the streets of
his home town-all because he
is suspected as a criminal and
might accept bride to influence
his decision, no matter how
honest and honorable he may be.
Some judge can win credit for
himself and his profession by
cutting loose from these ante
diluvian methods and establish
ing a new precedent for handling
jurors. If member of a jury
violates his oath or accepts a
bride there is adequate punish.
ment for the offense. The juror
is entitled to square deal.

Pure bred or high grade cattle
give so much better results both
for beef and milk that a man
cannot afford to waste his feed
on animals without blood behind
them. Some successful sales
have been conducted in the state
and more will be held which
should be attended and purchases
made by those farmers who are
raising only scrub stock. The
raising of good stock is the kind
of work in which the breeders
cast their bread on the waters.

There is great deal of money
in the chicken business, but like
everything else it requires an
expert to make the industry high
ly profitable. The great trouble
is that almost everybody who
can discriminate between tough
old rooster and a young pullet
constitutes himself an authority
on poultry. Armed with a few
punches of lathes he will start a
hen coop and tell his friends how
much money he intends to put in
the bank in few months. The
poultry and egg business-unless
it be Colonel William Jennings
Bryan-is about the biggest thing
that ever happened in the United
States. Its possibilities are be-
yond computation. Nebraskans
who used to boast of buying their
eggs by the crate are now indulg.
ing in the homelaid variety. More
attention is being paid to the in
dustry and the poultry raiser'
are making study of the pro
blem to get the best breeds fo
their especial purpose, and t.
find the foods, as we'll as tn,
comfortable and sanitary house
for their chickens. Scrub stool
doesn't pay, but thoroughbred
are in demand.
