WAY TO COLLECT ON LEGALS
Nebraska Publishers Propose Meas

the Publication.
MONEY BEFORE THE AFFIDAVIT
tFrom a Staff Correspondent

LINCOLN. Jan. Especial -Three
newspaper publishers in the legislature
propose to see to II that all legal notices
shall be paid for promptly instead of the
publisher being compelled to wait several
months for his money and, in some cases.
failing to get it at ALL
Leaves No LOOphOle.
The plan for bringing this about is
somewhat novel. 1t leaves no loophole
whereby a needy publisher. anxious to
get any kind of business, might consent
to wait the prompt payment and thus
be deprived of the advantage which the
proposed law would give him.
Whenever a legal publication has been
made, this bill provides that the owner
of the newspaper or someone in its en-
ploy must swear to an affidavit contain
ing this clause:
publication fee has been paid to the
publisher of newspaper in which such
publication was made"
Penalty Provided.
A penalty of SIS fine is specified in case
any publisher makes false affidavit In
this regard. Consequently, in order to
play safe, he must collect the fee before
he certifies that the legal notice has beer
printd in the manner required by law. He
is allowed thirty days after the last pub
lication to make the affidavit.
The bill will be introduced Jointly by
Representatives Broome, Cronin anC

GET RID 0F TICKS
 |NSTATE BY 1920
C. A. Cary Talks About Plans Under Way to Make
 Cattle Raising Safe

"No more ticks in Alabama after 1920"
 C. A. Cary, state veterinarian, who v'as yesterday in Birmingham. de- elared that Alabama should adopt the above quotation as it's motto. In the following statement he tells the farmers how, by the investment by the state of $5Oo.00o more than s2,OO0, 900 can be made
 "The proclamation of Governor Hen derson setting apart the last week in April as a special time to study, teach, preach and promulgate tick eradica- ton in Alabama should be needed by everyone in Alabama regardless of his or her work, or business, or profess sion. Tick eradica ton means profit able cattle raising in Alabama. Cattle and other live stock are the keys to diversified farming. Cattle will turn our grasses and feeds into milk and beef and fill our soils with humus that will hold fertility and increase the water-hol6ing capacity of the soil and improve it's texture and mechanical condition
 IT <AldDdind must lebQ nefSelT Sne must feed cattle and other live stock :; If we raise and feed cattle we must set rid of cattle ticks. Let the slogan for tick eradication be, No more ticks in Alabama after 1920'
 What will it cost to eradicate the cattle tick from Alabama? Up to date 1t has cost 50 cents per head to erad- 1cate the ticks from territory already cleaned. Alabama has 800, 900 to 1000, = 900 cattle. It would cost s400,000 to S5OO.000 to eradicate the ticks from Alabama at 50 cents per head; but many of our cattle are already clean and free of ticks. Many of our pas. lures and farms are tick free.
 .'On an average, from various cal culations and estimates, tick eradica- ton will increase the value of cattle s7 per head Eliminate the ticks from Alabama and increase their value s5,- 60000 to $7,000000 Will it pay to spend $500,000 to make $7,000000? put this s7 per head is not all we make by tick eradication. Southern tick marked hides are graded as No. 1 and the same hides without tick marks grade as No. ?. The difference is cents per pound 4o-pound tick mark ed hide will sell for s1.20 less than the same hide without tick marks 'Ticl free ca tile will make nora beef with the same feed than ticlly cattle. Tick-free cows will give l5 10 20 per cent more milk than ticky cattle, both on the same feed. Ticlty cattle are always more or less sick nd some may die, especially the young native cattle that must become tick infested ih ticky pastures. More native southern cattle die of tick fe- yer every year than of all other cattle diseases.
 ''Tick-free pastures cut out the losses that come when improved breeding cat tie are brought from the north or from Europe. Hence tick eradication means cheaper and more certain condition and opportunity for improving the Breeds and blood of Alabama cattle
 'rick-free cattle can be sold on any rsarket in the United States, hence it means higher prices, more and better

----.a.----------- - ADJUSTMENTS
At The Lyric

When an act that could easily be termed a headliner opens the bill it is sure indication that the balance of the acts are good ones. This is the case at the Lyric this week for Johnny Dooley and Yvette Rugel present the cleverest open ing act .een this season and every other number on the bill is of the highest merit. That the excellence or the per formance became known last night was evidenced by the capacity audience that packed the theatre at the closing show.
 Harry Beresford and company present a delightful comedy playlet full of human interest and excellently acted. Twenty Odd Years is a story of springtme and youth and age, all mingled prettily and interestingly. MT. Beresford added much to his reputation as a character actor by his fine portrayal of "Nunky." The playlet is exceptionally well staged.
 Billed as a musical comedy pair. Johnny Dooley and Yvette Rugel make good from the jump. Johnny is there with the comedy stuff and raises many laugh by his antics. Miss Rugel is very pleas ing and sings well. The act winds up in a scream
 Winsome as ever. Miss Ethel Green proved her popularity in Birmingham by the generous reception the audience gave her offerings last night. despite the fact that every one had been presented here before. Her songs and stories are very clever and rendered in her own inimitabe style.
 Arthur Geary, well known to theatre goers the principal tenor in the Pink Lady company, in song numb bers and at the piano, gave an act of the highest merit.
 AS acrobats pantommists comedians and dancers the LaToy brothers proved wonderful Their line of work is en- tirey different from acts of this kind and made an excellent closing number to a really clever show. Motion pictures followed the vaudeville numbers.
