Alfalfa Fed Cattle Wanted.

When q train load of cattle sold in
Omaha last week for ss20, 600, being ex-
actly SO per hundred pounds for every
steer on board, the buyers for the South
Omaha packing houses said "rhey
were among the finest ever brought to
this market and were fattened on a
mixture Of corn and alfalfa"
The great packers have recognized
that the alfalfa fed cattle are Of super
iorsquality and are doing all that they
can to encourage feeders to mix the
great proteid food with corn in such
proportion as will enable the stockto
utilize all the carlo -hydrates and oil8ia
the corn These they cannot use with
out waste unless q protein ration is
given as a nentralizer.
To encourage feeders to takeaup the
balanced ration as the best for cattle,
the packers are to have exhibits at the
4 National Corn exposition TO be held in
Omaha next December. and will show
in the cuts Of meat the superiority OF
that from alfalfa corn Esd steers. II
will be one OF the most interesting ex;
hibity ever shown at any EXPOSITION and
the expense will be entirely paid by the
packers.

COUNTY, OFFICIAL PAPER
"A Nations Grief.

In the death of Grover Cleveland the.
United States is compelled to mourn
the loss of one Of our most respected
and most public spirited citizens. The
report came as a shock to the whole
country of citizens whom he has serv-
Cd and whose esteem and love he held.
MT. Clevland was born on the 18th
day Of March, 1887 in Caldwell, N. j.
and passed most Of his life in that
state and New York. He practiced
law In Buffalo In 1859 and from that
time he enjoyed a public career as few
men have, He advanced quickly in
I the regard of his fellow citizens and IN
1882 was elected governor Of the state.
of New York by. an overwhelming ma
jority of $4,000. In 1884 he was elect
president Of the United States on the
democratic ticket and again IN 1902
His administrations were faultless and
he Is recorded as wise and able ex-
ecntive.
The later years Of his life were spent
at Princeton, n. D., where his death
took place Wednesday morning, June
"a at $40 O'clock. The whole country
mourns him as one of her first citizens
In ability, wisdom and regard for the
scountry's advancement.
Acting promptly upon hearing the
news of the death of Mr.. Cleveland,
w j. Bryan sent the following to the
Associated Press "The death of ex.
President Grover Cleveland brings to a
sudden end the phenomenal career OF
one Of the strongest characters known.

an extraordinary degree. He was de-

and ever ready to accept responsibility
for what he did. Few men have ex,.
erted more positive influence upon
those associated with him. We are
not far enough from the period in
which his work wasSdone to measure
accurately his space in history, but the

like In the Sexes.
"a man is man down to his
thumbs, and woman Is a woman
down to her little toes" writes DR..
Havelock Ellis in his book "NIen and
Women" There is hardly a measur-
able quality Of any sort which is not
unlike in the two sexes. Women even
button their garments on the other
side from that chosen by men and
choose Sunday instead Of Monday as
their favorite day for making way
with themselves. So far as laboratory
tests 60 Dr. Ellis says that women are
unquestionably superior in general
tactile sensibility and probably SUI
perior in the discrimination of tastes.
with no advantage either way in the
case Of the other senses. Women have
better memories, read more rapidly,
bear pain better, recover better from
wounds and serious illness, are less
changed by old age and live longer.
Furthermore, according to the same
authority, women have relatively
larger brains, especially in the frontal
region. It has long been said that
women are the more like children, but
DR.. Ellis says that men are the more
IKE apes. Women, In short, are more
civilized than men, and civilization it
SELF is but the process of making the
world ladylike. In fact, the only thing
left IN which man Is superior is mus
Gle. Men are two, three and even four
times stronger than women, and the
occasional exceptional woman hardly
reaches the level Of the average man.
Even between the ages Of eleven and
| fifteen, when girls are taller and
heavier, boys still retain their single
advantage in strength. EaHs 60
