DISCUSS PUBLIC WAREHOUSE
Frank @. 0dell Tells Economic
League Plan is Full of 0ppOr-
tunity for Spectators.
MAY WORK TO PUBLIC GOOD


The public warehouse az a general
proposition was again threshed out last
night when the Economic league got to-
gether at the court house to hear Frank
q. Odell discuss the subject. There we're
two sides TO the subject. and the members
found both Sides Odell said he did not
wish to be regarded as against a ware
hOuse as a general proposition. but, he
said. II am not in favor Of any old ware
house bill. There are things 10 be guarded
against"
He said among the evils TO be looked
for were the mixing OF grain, which re-
suits in an advantage to the dealer and
works against the best interests Of the
farmer; the possibility of the warehouse
men themselves dealing in the grain or
becoming themselves spectators in the
grain they store; the permitting Of the
speculative element TO dominate the
terminal. He said also, that a public
warehouse must have federal inspection
n the best results are TO be obtained.
Mr.. ODell reviewed the history of the
cooperative grain elevator movement and
led up TO the movement for public ware
houses which has brought them into
existence in Missouri. Kansas. Minnesota
and Illinois
Abuses in Marketing.
The abuses In grain marketing led to
the demand for public warehouses" he
said But the public warehouse has not
been sufficient to correct the evils Of a.
giant business. The owner or operator
Of the warehouse should be performing
a public function and should be impartial.
QffnTOinC N al fo,, -
store their grain. But by devices oper-
ated In defiance of the law. creating a
public warehouseman. he has become a
competitor OF every legitimate trader in
grain and with special advantages which
renders competition practically impossi-
ble."
Prfcea I'm Kansas.
Tom Tibbles quoted General Test at
length in favor Of the public warehouse
He said the general had made a study
of the subject fer years and could show
that grain was bought cents a bushel
less In Nebraska than in Kansas because
Ncbraska has no public warehouses.
g. Vincent answered him by saying that
the difference in the price OF grain in
hansas. City and Omaha is the difference
In the price OF freight. "A law creating
a public warehouse in NebraslrH,-' he
said, 'rs about as important as a law
for Nebraska regulating the business OF
oyster dredging or the operation of cotton
gins"
just ArGuinR a Little.
Tom Ttbbles persisted In breaking into
the argument. He shook his gray locks
and became heated. Vincent said: at
is unfortunate that this question should
stir up bad blood
There Is no bad blood" replied Tib-
oles. I'VE are just getting up a little
excitement over this. A question that
can't arouse little excitement amt

Harley @. Morebead, election commits
Sioner, secs no chance for q dispute over
the bill he has rendered the Board Of
Education for its share OF the November
election expenses.
The amount, 81 .oss. is not excessive. -
says Mr.. Morehead. my right to make
a charge against the board surely. is not
questionable, but clearly defined by eec-
tion 5Ss OF the election laws under cleo
ton commissioner"

Formerly Held Separate.
Previous TO this election separate
primaries and the final contest were held
for the choosing OF Board Of Education
members. This election Combined the two

proportionately. in Mr.. Morehead's judg-
ment.
II have record here" says he, show

That is true" says w. n. Bourke

cost OF both primary and election. but Il
was above the average. Our books show
that the two contests since then, lnclud-
ing the primaries and elections, cost the
board. respectively. sl,7OT.e4 and 81 i,stO e0"

a little advice to mothers. Better ba-
bies physically was the mainstay of
her speech.
In "Guarding the Child Against Dis
ease" DR.. H. B. Wood, the health Of
ficer, made a plea before the Baby
Week audience that the parents start
several years earlier in their activities
than what is usually accorded. He
said: I'VE do not want more babies
only, but healthier, more vigorous
children. 1t is not the number of
babies saved but the number of nor
NAL children born of healthy parents
that will increase the valuation of the
community. Every child should be
taught what might be the future of its
life and help to guard against the
dangers which may assail it's future
generation.
1.-The young couple seeking marriage
should assure themselves that they are
in normal condition both in regards
to hereditary conditions and to their
own physical condition. Through
modesty young women are too prone
to neglect to call their physician early
enough and the result for the expec-
tant mother is frequently a broken
maternal constitution and decreased
vigor of the child. Severe work being
performed by the woman too close to
the established date has the same re-
suit. Maternal health, strength and
vigor develops a proper training and
medical attention insures the same
qualities in the future generation.
Cases of expectancy should be report
