McNEAL FAIR Is
 A SUCCESS

iety in the southwest. is of very in. ferior quality. Better varieties must be introduced
 Among the white wheats, the Early Bart sometimes enormously called Eariy BarfJ, and White Aus tralian are among the best. These varieties are much harder than the white Sonora and are just about as productive. : The substitution 1f these for the inferior white Sonora would be worth much both to the farmers and millers.
 Turkey red wheat, which is the sort commonly grown in Kansas and Oklahoma. can be grown in Arizona IL is not quite so productive as the white Sonora or Early Bart, but If aiven proper culture the superiority in quality will probably make good the disadvantage.
 When irrigated excessively all wheats tend to become soft. It Is therefore, highly advisable to pro duce the wheat crop on only a med crate supply of water, and above all it should be so irrigated as 10 bring about a rapid ripening By this is meant the time between the milk stage and that Of the ripe grain should be made as short as possible. This can best be accom- plished by having the ground be- come fairly dry at this period. The last irrigation sbculd therefore be given at about the time the wheat is coming out of the boot. If the irrigation is stopped earlier the grain is liable to shriyel too much. On the other hand if water is ap. piled as late as the dough stage. it prolDngs the ripening season and thereby sCftens the wheat.

JAMES IS PEssImIsTIc

That the railroads are facing either own ersp or financial ruin the of the political situation and the continual harassing of the properties by public utility commissions was the statement yes erday of Arthur curtss James member of the execu- tive committee of the Chicago Rock Island X Pacific Railroad Mir. James has just returned from an in. specton trip over the Rock Island properties with T. M Schumacher the newIy-elected chairman of the board.
 NIT. James said: Business in the Rock Island terri tory is very shaky of the political situation and the continued harassng railroads by the va rious public utility commissions. AS result the rail roads will either go broke or become Government, owned. The commissions take it on themselves to order station here an overhead crossing there and various other expenditures but the people at large are beginning to realize the roads cannot bear these additional burdens render the service de- handed"

The Creighton-st Louis university foot
ball game scheduled for the coming SAT-

off because OF failure on the part Of
the two managements to come TO te ms

We will not permit them to play their

we could not make this concession.

In answer to the above Faculty Direc-
tor Wise OF Creighton said last night
The question of not playing freshmen
was not made known TO the Creighton
athletic management until last week
and Creighton insisted upon playing ac-
cording to the written contract, in which
nothing was said about freshmen
The news OF the cancellation OF the St
Louis game came as a severe blow to
the members OF the Creighton team and
their followers. Creighton was conceded
to have the best chance in its history
of walloping the Missourians on their
own grounds, and amply revenging them.

Louis on Creighton field last year. The
st. Louis team has made a poor showing
this year, and Creighton had every hope

COYOTES TO PLAY CREIGHTON
Game for Thanksgiving with South

Both squads Feel quite Equal to
Each other and Arc Red Hot %
Try out Their Gridiron
PrOweEs.

The Crelghton-Dakota Turkey day con-
test which has been hanging fire for the
last three weeks, was assured last even
ing when the Creighton athletic manage
ment received a telegram from Vermillion,
s. D., the location of South Dakota state,
declaring they would play the Thanks
giving game according to schedule.
The telegram came as an answer to
letters from Creighton asking the Coyotes
if they intended to play the game. Some
time ago, because. several of their num-
ber were suspended for hazing a fellow
student, the South Dakota team struck,
and the remaining games on their sched-
ule were cancelled. according to press
reports from Vermillion. After some par
leying they agreed to play Denver uni
versity according to schedule, but again,
after the Denver game, they quit the
field
It was then that the Creighton manage
ment wrote asking for information, and
have since been awaiting Developments
The action on the part of the South
Dakota management came as the result

were concerned. Coming on the eve OF

Waterloo Gives
Largest Sum Yet
For Big Highway

over half the male population OF Wa
terloo turned out to a IAncoln highway
booster meeting held in the town hall
last night. II. r. Fredrickson drove out
to attend the meeting and urge the Wa
terloo people to get out and make a
noise.
J. c. Robinson, the town consul for the
Lincoln highway, announced that he Lad
secured promises of 1850 which would
be used to purchase Lincoln highway
certificates This is the largest amount
so far raised in any city. not even ex-
cepting Omaha. Three men, James
Walsh. J. c. Robinson and II. r. Wal
dron. contributed 81 800 OF the total. while
A. II. Campbell and B. F. johnson do
mated $500. G. b. Compton and A. c.
Compton. both of whom live four miles
off the road contributed 800.
Every person present had a good word
10 say for the Lincoln highway and ex-
pressed gratitude that Waterloo was TO
be on the route. Every one thought that
II would increase the value OF property
along the line and would act as one OF
the greatest advantages Nebraska will
possess.
Mr.. Fredrickson assured Waterloo and
Elkhorn that the road would pass through
their cities. 1t was suggested that the
route be changed to the military trail
through Benson, and several Bensonites
were present to present their side OF the
question, but Mr.. Fredrickson explained
the feasibility OF the Elkhorn- Waterloo
route so the minds of the skeptical were
pacified.
W. @. whitmore, one OF the Board of
Regents of the state university, who re-
sides at Valley and who recently sub
scribed $1,000 II the citizens OF Valley
would subscribe 500. was present and
advocated the advisabillty OF subscribing
for certificates. Mr.. Whitmore asserted
that It was a financial proposition 10 the
land owner and he stated that he was
positive land would so increase In value
after the completion Of the road that
any farmer along the route could well
afford to contribute a dollar for every
acre and may be even S for every acre
ana still come out with large percentage
Of gain merely from a real estate point
