IS LESS THIS YEAR
Reduction in Levy Will Cut Down
Receipts Over Nebraska Nearly
Half Million.
INSURANCE MEN PROTESTING
(From Staff Correspondent }


LINCOLN. Neb., Sept 4-(Special.)- y
Receipts from taxes raised by the state
levy will be A1,945.s3 less this year than
in 1914, according to figures given out
by Secretary Bernecker of the State
Board of Assessment. This In face OF the
fact that the assessed valuation of the
state is nearly s9OOO,OOO more than last
year.

in the state levy by the board of assess
ment and will result in the receipts
from Douglas county to the state being
$S7, ,6S5.62 less than in 1914. while Lam
caster county will pay in $2l,971.42 less
than the 1914 tax.

Crack at Gerdes Law.
The last session OF the state legislature
made an appropriation of $1,000 for the
relief of the blind at the Nebraska City

day the first donation came in amount
ing to 50, and the state treasurer has
placed the same in the cash fund of the
institution State Accountant DeFrance
declares that cash funds of state institu.
tions do not need to be appropriated by
the legislature and thus the Gerdes Law
gets another crack.

What Causes tuberculosis.

DIR. John North of Toledo. o., is
working on the theory that tubercu-
losis may be due to a lack of lime
in the system, as he says that while
tubercular germs are everywhere, they
only thrive in ripe soil and Just what
is lacking in persons subject to tuber-
cular trouble gives food for thought.
He says that there is less tuber-
culosis among people living in arid re-
gions and plants in such places have
more lime in their composition than
those growing in humid regions.

Crosses between wild and tame tur-
Keys are harder than the common

4 the wild nature OF their uncivilized
parents and are difficult to control.
In Rhode Island some interesting ex
| periments have been made crossing
| turkey gobblers on White Holland and
Bronze turkey hens. From the White
Holland eggs the poults were particu-
larly beautiful. with white breasts and
white plumage across the backs, and
wings penciled with black. Occasion
ally one OF the pullets would be pure
white.
The Bronze hen cross produced
poults resembling the Bronze. with the
lighter yellow in their tail feathers.
The poults from these crosses grew
quickly and were extremely hardy
Half-wild gobblers are easily tanned
but the half-wild hens do not take
kindly to confinement and are not
easily domesticated.
A quarter-wild cross is better fol

crosses are bred together the stool
