Women Readers Are Waiting :...

Miss irma Gross Will Write on
Domestic Science and Eco

ing for The Bee.

Housewives who read The Bee are
all agog with interest in the an

section, to be in charge of Miss Irma
II. Gross Of the Central high school
domestic science faculty. Wherever
progressive housekeepers consregate,
they are discussing this latest feature

The Bee, and the initial appearance Of
the new department is eagerly
awaited.
The special training and fitness OF
Miss Gross to conduct such a depart
ment is fact commented on by all
who knew this efficient young wom-
an. Miss Gross. is an Omaha prod
uct, an honor graduate of Central
high school, after which she took the
domestic science course at the Uni
versity OF Chicago. Much of her
training here was received under
Sophonisba Breckenridge, a woman
OF national fame, and Marion Talbot,
whose textbooks are recognized as
among the best written on home eco
Monies subjects. Miss Gross supple
mented her own study by teaching
domestic science at the University
Settlement, headed by Miss Mary Nc
Dowell. She has been connected with
the local high school classes since her
return to Omaha.
Miss Gross is not the type of do
mestic science instructor who believes
that the modern woman is woefully
ignorant Of housekeeping methods,
and that her mother, before her, was
equally unacquainted with sanitation,
food chemistry, food values and the
like.

DEMOS ARE MAKING
DEMAND ON CLERKS
Five Per Cent Assessment in
Sight on ALI the State
House Employees.
GREAT ROAR IS GOING UP
tFrom a Staff Correspondent

Lincoln, Sept. l6.-(Special. State
house employees, or at least some OF
them, are facing 5 per cent assess
ment for democratic campaign pur-
poses, according to reliable rumors
emanating from those who are OBJ
jecting to so high an appreciation of
their services by the powers that be.
Officials Of the departments do not
care to talk very much about the high
handed methods being used to make
them loosen up. Some Of them do not
object to paying 10 per cent assess
ment on their own salaries, but they
say that they will not stand for a s
per cent assessment on the clerks
working under them.
Republican state officials, which In
clude the state superintendent, land
commissioner and the railway COM
mission, emphatically stated to The
Bee that there had been no assess
ment in their offices and there would
be none.
Some of the state officers, who
have understood that the 5 per cent
assessment will have to come, declare
that if the order comes they will adj
wise their employees not to pay it. It
is probable, however, that they will
stand for half that and not grumble
very much.
On a S per cent basis deputies will
have to pay $50; bookkeepers, SIS;
clerks from $50 to $50, and stenog-
raphers, $42. There are half dozen
democratic deputies in the state house
with assistants who draw a like sal
airy, which will make total sum, if
all pay the 5 per cent, of $3.50. There
are the same number of bookkeepers
who will donate $3.50; about twenty
clerks who will cough up about $1,000

Lincoln, Sept. 16.-(Special.)- In-
spectors Of the state pure food depart.
ment have seized 400 baskets OF
grapes in possession Of Omaha fruit
men, so notice was received by Com
missioner Hartman this morning. The
eonfiscation was made because the

1t is generally understood that
each basket should weigh eight
pounds, but in this case the number
Of pounds did not show on the bas-
ket. The national law requires brand
ing OF baskets.
Commissioner Hartman has notified
wholesalers to obey the law. 1t is
said that the law Is being evaded by
fruit men in Council Bluffs who are
shipping grapes to Nebraska points.

charges in district court at Nebraska
City against Robert Nix, agent Of the

to allow inspection OF coal oil in tanks

DESTROYING VERMIN ON HOGS
Crude OIL, Mixed With Equal Volume
Of Warm Water, Is One Of Best
Known Applications.

Crude oil is one of the best appllca.
tons for killing lice on hogs. 1t is
sometimes used IN cattle, though less
often. Use ii mixed with an equal
volume of warm water. Apply with
rag, sponge or spray pump.
For quicker but less thorough work
1t can simply he poured on from a
Kerosene cal and allowed to run down
the sides. For a large number Of ami
mails, use a dipping sank or hog Oiler.
Crude oil makes dark stains. and is
objected to by some men who keep
white hogs. One gallon of crude car
bolic acid added to each barrel of oil
makes II more effective.
Machine oil mixed with kerosene,
half and half, ran he used in the same
way. Pure Kerosene is too harsh on
the skin.
Tobacco infusion is an old reliable
remedy. Soak tobacco stems for -
hours in water, using one pound stems
to two gallons water, then bring the
water In boiling for a few minutes,
and let ii cool. This detection can be
used on all kinds of animals, applied
by hind or as n dip.
With all these preparations, the
treatment should he repeated after
one week. Most Of the lice will be
killed the first time, hut not all the
lice eggs.

GOOD
ROADS
NORTH AND SOUTH HIGHWAY
Memorial to Character and Achieve.
ment Of Andrew Jackson-Road
Born In Sunny South.

(By j. J.. ATHERTON. President OF
Jackson Highway A~ssociation,)
The idea Of a great North and South
highway, as a memorial to the charac.
ter and achievement OF Andrew Jack
son was first conceived about 1910 by
the Daughters of 1912, an ~organiza-
ton of patriotic representative south
ern women.
AS first outlined, the scheme was to
perfect a highway leading from Chi
cago to New Orleans. More or less
missionary work was done along the
proposed line of the road by the Jack
son highway committee of the Daugh-
ters of 1912, of which committee Miss
Alma Rittenberry of Birmingham, Ala,
was given to the organization until in
July, 1915, at a meeting in Birming-
ham, Ala.
AT this meeting a temporary organi-
cation was formed, consisting OF men
interested in good roads from Indiana,
Kentucky, Tennessee. Alabama. Mis-
sissippi and Louisiana. II was further
determined at this meeting that the
Jackson highway should run from Chi
cagO on the northwest to Louisville,
Ky, and from Niagara Falls on the
northeast TO the same point. the two
divisions here joining and continuing
southwark through Nashville 10 New
Orleans.
A fnu urnnEo 1pfn~ tln va.1FCnn IItnI
way association convention. for the
purpose Of forming a permanent or
ganizatiOn and of formally launching
the whole movement. was held in
Nashville, Tenn, The permanent or
pani2ation was effected al this conven-
ton.
In the rapid development OF the
good roads movement in the last five
years various local road organizations
have been formed in the states through
which the Jackson highway runs, and
a great deal OF valuable work lone
in improving roads controlled by these
organizations, The Jackson highway
completed. will he largely the welding
together of road systems developed by
these smaller associations. making a
continuous north and south highway
between Chicago on the northwest,
Buffalo or the northeast, and New Or
leans on the south.
AT the present time about nine
tenths of the road in Indiana and Ken
lucky is In very good condition; in
Tennessee about th%ree-fourths Of the
New Mexico state record. (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1914-19??, 1916-07-14
HARVESTING CORN WITH HOGS
tening Animals-AIso Feed Al
falfa or Glover.

Hoeging down corn is an ecunomi-
cal and practical way of fattcming
hogs and Of harvesting corn. For
best results some supplementary feed
like alfalfa or clover is advisable. II
you have such a field adjoining til"
corr field the combination is ideal. II
neither of these crops is available and
you have ii stand of rape in tn" oats
stubble or curuStalkS, this makes Il
good combination. You have to plan
ahead to get this, and many farmers
SOW a little rape in the corn along in
July, especially if there is a thin stand
of corn.
In the absence Of pasture good re-
suits are obtained from such feeds as
tankage, oil meal or meat meal. These
can be fed as n slOp or in Il sclf-feed-
er with corn. With both available the
pig will balance the ration To suit him
