in it's stock raising and the stock raising
must necessarily depend upon cheap FOOD.
The cultivated products of the soil must
replace the buffalo grass and hay of the
ranges. The increased production VIII be
increased further by the vast amount OF
irrigated and government lands rapidly
Expositions like this one will teach us to
improve the quality and increase the guam
tity of the grain. Modern machinery and
s~cienticif farming will increase the yield
and decrease the cost of production ana
to harmonic this increased production or
grain, the farmer and stockman must work
hand In hand.
Mrs. Harriet MacMurphy, deuty state
fool inspector, of Lincoln delivered a short
talk upon Labor Saving Devices in the
Household of the Farm" which was full
of interest and showed how the labor OF
women on the farm had been tremendously
reduced by these devices, and how better
products of the dairy, poultry yard and
garden had been produced, thus adding
enormously to the farm revenues, as well
as to the comfort Of the farm household.
Prof. W.. ]. Kennedy, vice director Of the
experiment station of Ames Qa.) college,
spoke upon the subject OF The Se.ecion,
Care and Keeping of Live Stock" He be-
gan his address with a tribute to Governor
elect Shallenberger whom he had known
for a number of years. Prof. Kennedy
stated that he operated a farm IN ADDITION
to his college work and sought to practice
what he preached.
II am an arden advocate Of diversified
farming he said, land know from experi-
ence that the chief success in farming lies
in the diversified method.
There is a business end to farming as
there is in live stock industry. The ques-
ton of the balanced ration In live stock
feeding is one OF vital Importance. This
applies not merely to the horse. but to fat
tening and dairy cattle as well, and must
be adjusted to the purposes needed. The
essential ingredients of the balanced ration
are protein, carlo hydrates, fat and ash,
Protein for building VI the muscles, blood
hair, wool and sides and milk in the dairy
stock; carbo hydrates for the breeding in
terests and for fat and ash for the pro-
duction of bone, each Of which Is an '}n"
portant constituent Of the whole animal.
The balanced ration must be constructed
according to the purposes needed. II should
not be constructed too economically or too
prodigally, but fer the growing dcnand.
Corn and alfalfa constitute the most eco
nomical ration. Alfalfa is especially rich
IN protein, and in this respect because of
it's better growth Nebraska leads Iowa In

so exceptional here, in Great Britain is the
rule. Farm after farm will raise corn like
this and they make no ado about 1t.
80 1 want to say to you, my friends,
whenever, as ] said before, you see live
stock or grain from England you can take
II as a standard, and there is no reason
why we should not bring live stock de-
velopment to as high a point as corn Is
being developed. We should develop farm
products along all lines, to the same point
to which corn has been brought and then
carried still farther. You think we have
such splendid cattle here. You should see
some OF England's cattle. and not prize
cattle, at that. On one farm in Scotland,
which, after all. is part of England. there
is a gentleman who raises cattle, on a
small scale. and who on an occasion not
long ago sold nineteen calves for a sum
a~ggregating A 1000, which is not bad. when
compared to the price received by western
cattlemen for their cattle. The only diff
ference is tina he has developed the kind

revered p~aternal ancestor a little mercen-
airy item.
1t doth appear that Indian custom Is
somewhat the reverse of the continental
European. So far from the girl bringing
a dot, dowry or settlement, the family of
the groom is supposed to come across with
the kali. Putting 1t more or less ~profanely
and coarsely, he buys little Laughing Eyes
from her great father, Chief-Ought-To-Be
Observation-Disclosures.
When these base details have been hig-
gled over to a satisfactory conclusion,
Chief Kicked, ETC.. will take Annie by the
hand and start to lead her to the groom.
1t is now up to little Annieis cue to cut up
and be coy. After she has been urged suf-
ficiently, however, she will permit Chief
Runs Swift to take he by the hand and
draw her toward him. 1t seems that this
taking by the hand is the really essential
part of the ceremony which will be enacted
in deadly earnest at the exposition Sat
urday evening.
1t is the indian equivalent of the

after an arduous courtship in which Annie
kept him guessing a long time, and how
well he is going to treat her, and all that
sort of thing which brldegrooms generally
say, although usually to the bride herself.
Seventy persons will take part in the
ceremony, mostly Indians of one kind or
another. The real master of ceremonies
will be Chief Raymond Swift, a full-blooded
Sioux chieftain who is a graduate OF st.
Johns university OF Minnesota and a really
well educated and cultured man.
Chief Raymond will also act as the coro-
mater in the imposing pageant Immediately
following the Indian wedding. He will

elaborate ritual and the two great products
will thus be symbolically united as in

Foundation OF Business.
1.-THE farmer is still the foundation Of
business. and, like Atlas of old, is holding
the world on his shoulders. In the recent
panics. when business was stagnated all
over the east, Nebraska bears the enviable
record of not one business failure. This
is almost wholly due to the fact that Ne
braska people are more in a position to
pay their debts than any other one state
in the union, because you have products
that have a cash value. and you can take
them out at any time and sell them for cash.
We are all farmers in Nebraska. and we
ought to be good farmers Our who
fortune, as a state and as individuals,
rests on agriculture. We are educated,
having the largest amount of educated
people, and the smallest amount Of illit-
eracy, of any state in the union.

that he feared he would soon succumb
under their weight.
The Pope announced that he was trying
to get his own affairs and those OF the
church in such shape that his expected
death would not seriously interrupt the
progress OF the church
There was an unmistakable touch Of
sadness in the Popes words. Bishop
Burke said. in relating the interview

day that he had been appointed counsel
for q number OF the creditors Of A O.

the bankruptcy proceedings against the
firm. He said that the claims Of his clients

firm being adJudicated bankrupt the
committee OF creditors represented by
him would probably present two names
for appointment as trustees, one Of them
a lawyer versed in bankruptcy matters
