Big Winter Wheat

Ernest Stenger. general manager or

the city from St Joseph in conference
with Union Pacific officials. Mr. STEM
ger asserts that all through southern
Nebraska and Kansas conditions at this
time of the year were never better than
now for big crop Of winter wheat SAD
Mr.. Stenger:
''The winter wheat acreage 10 about
up to that of last year and on account
of the great quantity OF precipitation IN
the early fall after sowing was com
pleted, the grain got good start, gong
into the winter in the best possible con-
dition. While there has been little snow
to form a blanket over the wheat, there
has been enough TO keep the ground
moist and prevent the dirt from blowing

at a good advance from a year ago. The

DEMAND FOR MACARoNI
is GREATLY INCREASED

An enormous increase in the amount
Of macaroni and kindred products eaten
in this country is noted in recent years.
This is said to be largely due to the clean
factories in which it is made, one OF the
largest OF which is located in Omaha.
Durum wheat from which IT is made
grows to its greatest perfection here In
the middle west. even better than in its
native Russia from which country the
seed was imported.
Only the outer she'll is removed from the
wheat. The rest is ground into coarse
flour. mixed with water and kneaded
in big machines into a dough which Is
then pressed by hydraulic presses into
the various shapes and is finally put
through a curing process in humidors.
The American made product Is made In
strictly sanitary manner, in marked
contrast from the handmade foreign
product. Its richness in nutrition has
caused 1t to take the place largely OF
meats since they have risen in price ana
its adaptability to scores OF different
fishes explains the vast increase in It's
use. Prepared with cheese, with tomato
sauce, oysters, cheap cuts or meats
mushrooms. fish. eggs, cream It affords
a dish that for wholesomeness. savor-
mess. nutrition and economy can hardly

Cupid is to Be More Potent Than
Mars and They viii Wed Sunday

Misc Bessie Harris. pretty English
girl. born In London twenty years ago,
will be married 20 Frank Blau. 81. a
German-American, Sunday, as the re-
suit of a romance which proved Cupid
moro powerful than Mars, the war god.
Blau already has secured a marriage
license at the court house, making GER
tain that no further delay will occur
in the celebration OF the nuptials. Once
the marriage was postponed because the
young man and girl thought they loved
their countries better than each other
and a second time It was delayed be-
cause of an injury 20 the bridegroom's
mother.
Young Blsu had been going" with
pretty Bessie Harris for six months when
the European war broke out Although
Blau was born in the United States, his
parents were natives OF Germany and
he called himself "German-American,"
They disagreed and ceased to keep COM
pany"
Nine months ago the present bride and
bridegroom began to appear together in
public places and young Blau frequently
visited the home of Joseph Harris, her
father, of the South Side. They found
they no longer cared whether Germany
or England was victorious, so long as
they could be together.
I'VE are American" at last they said.
There is no reason why we should
quarrel with each other about England
and Germany"
Now they never talk about war Blau
calls himself an American and so does
his pretty bride.
After tho marriage the bride and bride
groom will go to the home of Joseph
Blau, 1912 Burt street, where they will
live.
What do you think of an English
daughter-in-law? the elder Mr. Blau,
was asked
II will be glad to welcome her" the
old man said heartily. Il have lived in
the United States twenty-nine years and
] am an American. We are all Amer
leans"

The offending dealer recently opened a
place at Eleventh and Douglas streets,
and last week was brought before the
commissioners because of Objectionable
signs at his liquor emporium. He agreed
to remove the signs, and now he has
sought to attract business in Council
Bluffs by advertising the fact that when
the town across the river goes dry next
week he will supply a-plenty, furnish
street car tickets or deliver by automo-
bile without extra cost
The Omaha commissioners object TO this
city being advertised in Council Bluffs
in the manner indicated.
Whether the license will actually be
turned down will be determined Friday
morning.
