GIRLS OUTNUMBER BOYS ON
HIGH SCHOOL HONOR LIST
Male Sex shade Ahead, Nevertheless
when Total of Both Sexes in
InstitutiOn ia Considered.

Twenty-Five girls and twelve boys have
been announced on the list eligible for com
petition on the commencement program Of
the Omaha High school. The difference in
the number between the two sexes Is not
entirely due to the superiority of the girls,
as might at first be supposed, but is due
partly to the fact tina the percentage Of
girls to boys in the high school is almost
two to one.
To become eligible for these commence
ment programs is considered quite an honor
In the Omaha High school, as 1t shows
that the student has been a faithful stu
dent. The eligibility rules declare ANY
pupil who has received an average Of 80 or
above for his work in the eleventh and
twelfth grade Enlish of the Omaha High
school shall be eligible to compete for a
place on the program of commencement
exercises"
Thursday Miss Kate McHugh. head OF
the department of English at the high
school, announced the following pupils as
being eligible under the above rule;

CRABTREE is ACCUSED OF
BLOCKING SCHOOLS INTEREST
State Treasurer Brian Takes steps to
Induce Peru Educator to
Leave at Once.
(Trom a staff correspondent.l

LINCOLN, March 4.-(Special.)-To pre-
vent further injury TO the Peru normal
school and to save the summer school at
Peru, an effort will be made at the COM
ing meeting of the State Normal board,
March II, to discharge Principal Crabtree
without waiting until the close Of the school
year for his resignation.
Reading notices are being sent out from
Peru knocking on the summer normal, II
is reported here, and hat Mr.. Crabtree's
Teachers organization in not working for
the interest OF the school, At least one
member Of the board has decided that II
is time to put the school in the hands Of
its friends.
When the board gave Mr., Crabtree untll
the close Of the school year to resign, the
member expected that he would con
duct the school In such a manner that II
would be turned over to his successor in
first class shape, but recent developments
nave convinced Treasurer Brian, at least,
that the longer Mr.. Crabtree remains, the
more injury will be done the school.
Three employees OF the school resigned
Tuesday. one OF them being the engineer
1t was not until S O'Clock in the afternoon
that Member shellhorn discovered that
these designations had been rendered. He
at once called upon Mr.. Crabtree, who

steps to notify the members Of the board
or to secure men to take their places.

Roads win BE bad for Farmers
Farmers will rave a time this spring. try
ing to move hay and grain,' said Bud r..
Latta Of Tekamah, who was at the Mer-
chants Friday. THE heavy rains Of No
vember and the extra heavy SHOWS we
have had this winter will make the roads
too heavy to handle any sort Of a load
this spring. Farmer in our section moved
all the hay they could from the lowlands
during the winter while the ground was
frozen, 80 they would not be shut off from
feed this spring"
Horses Scarce, Prices High-"scarcity
OF horses is being noticed all over the
west and has forced up the prices" said
John Donovan of Madison county, deputy
game warden. I'VE had a sale at Madison
some time ago when the average price for
ordinary horses was about $3.50. A good
team will easily bring $500. This scarcity
will interfere materially with considerable
work which is mapped out for this sum-
mer, especially by the railroads. 1 know

for bids without receiving a bid, because
II was all work which had to be done by
horses or mules"
Looks Good for Bumper wheat Crop
w are looking for a bumper wheat crop
this year" said Walter Hopewell Of Te-
kamah at the Merchants. "The fall was
fine for the wheat and the SHOWS have pro-
tected 1t all winter, so that It now looks
like nothing short of a calamity will head
off a bumper crop Of winter wheat. Farm
lands in our section are increasing most
materially in value since the farmers have
discovered they can grow winter wheat or
some Of the low land. Some of this land
has practically doubled in value in the last
two or three years. The farmers are doing
a large amount Of thing on the lower land
and this is working toward a big increase
in values"

COMMERCIAL CLUBS IN LINE
IN SEED CORN CAMPAIGN
Action by Omaha Organization Meets
with Prompt and Hearty Re-
Spouse All Over State.

Nothing tina has been started in Omaha
for some years has met with as hearty
response from all parts OF the state as the
campaign Of the Commercial club urging
the farmers Of Nebraska to test their seed
corn.
Commercial clubs all over the state have
taken up the idea, creameries nave fallen
in line, n are urging the farmers to
follow the suggestions OF the Commercial
club, big grain companies have instructed
their agents at their elevators to give as
much publicity TO the idea as possible, the
railroads nave not only instructed their
agents to post the prepared notices, but
the superintendent of the various divisions
have been instructed to see that the agents
do it and the country press has taken up
the campaign.
Much good has already resulted in this
educational campaign and, judging from
the numerous inquiries which these differ
ent agencies ave received, the farmers
will follow out the idea.
one farmer, however. who lives near
Madison. could not stand the idea OF av-
Ing experts try to tell a farmer what to do
about his corn and has sent the following
letter to the Madison Chronicle. which that
paper published.
OBJECTIONS TO SUGGESTIONS ON
SEED CORN TESTING.
Dear Sir; ] have seen an article In your
last issue by the Omaha Commercial club
saying that the corn IS unfit for seed or a
whole lot OF IL at least In Nebraska and
telling the farmers to test their seed corn
or have a big loss to them.
Now / think that the club thinks that
the farmers Is nothing but a dumb brute
and don't know anything but work, sleep
and work again, but 1 believe IL the club
tend To their own business II would be
better for them and all, for we have seen
our corn before they knew what corn looks
like, and II they think they know our bust
ness better. than we do they had better
come and show US and not talk smart and
don't know anything but smoke cigars,
Now, dear people, l am not an old farmer
yet but i have picked seed corn for twenty
years and l never failed yet. but 1 might
fan this time and wish the club would
come and pick my seed corn this time for
1 think our corn is better for seed this
year than II was two years ago, so II Is
! easier TO pick seed from Il.
1 / wish you would publish this so they
| can read Il, 80 they know that the farmers
knows more than eat, work and sleep over
and over. ONE OF YOUR READERS.
