COMMITTEE TO HEAR
STATE HOUSE TALK
Thursday Evening Set Apart
for Discussion of Needs
of New Capitol.
OPINION NOT UNIFIED

From Staff Correspondent
Lincoln, Feb. 6.-(Special. Jon
Thursday evening a joint session of
the two committees on finance, ways
and means will be held in representa-
tivev hall to consider the merits OF
H. R. |, the Richmond new state
house bill which provides for levy
of one mill on each dollar to erect
new state house.
The bill calls for an appropriation
of i$5,500,0OO to be raised annually
until the amount produced by the levy
shall have reached the required
amount.
That new building is sadly needed
most OF the members are willing to
admit, but they do not seem to be
able to agree as to the amount and
the method OF raising it. The plan in
bill introduced to move the state
house to Grand Island or some other
point is considered by many to be
simply scheme on the part of those
most interested to knock out the
proposition for new state house at

A driveway through the farm connect

ESTABLISH CREAM
COllECTI.G LfPOT
FOR COLUMBIA TRACE
CUMBERLAND VALLEY BUTTER
co. OF NASHVILLE TO OPEN
LOCAL MARKET.
IMPETUS To LIVE SlOC. RAJ ING
All-the-Year, Spot-Cash Market Will |
Bring New Money for By-Product
of the Farm Without Possibility of
Loss.

Establishment of cream collect
ing station in Columbia was the SAs-
sion Thursday of Prof }. d. Jarvis of
Chicago, advisory expert OF the De
Laval Separator Co., r. +. Lewis OF
the separator company, and r. F.
Coling manager of the Cumberland
Valley Butter Co. Of Nashville. These
gentlemen were in Columbia to make
arrangements for the establishment
CT the station and to discuss with
business men the benefits that will
be derived from it.
The plan of the Cumberland Valley
Butter Co. is to establish a cream buy
ing and collecting station in this great
live stock producing section, which
will eliminate the necessity for ped
ding milk and butter but will give an
|all-the-year, spot-caSh market for but
ter fat in large and small quantities.
This station will be operated by a
local merchant who will buy the but
ter fat as agent for the Cumberland
Valley Butter Co. The cream, or but
ter fat will be tested by local man.
and can be delivered in any quantity
Producers can make deliveries each
week, as it will not be necessary to
keep the cream sweet until it Is sold.
This cream station will establish a
market here that will encourage dual
purpose cattle raising rather than
dairying as business. 1t will make
possible the sale of butter fat While
the milk from good beef cattle will
go to the calves, hogs and chickens.
There will be no outlay of local
capital and all the money paid for
butter fat will be new circulation in
this community. The station will be
operated for the purchase of butter
fat just as the produce houses and
grain dealers buy chickens, eggs, corn
and other farm products
The establishment of this buying
station is not calculated to increase
the dairying business as it is usually
| thought of, but will give impetus to
all-round cattle raising and pure bred
stock business. More particulars of
the new business will be announced
later.

reckon Anse Havey won't hardly let hit go by without doin' nothin'. Thank heaven. thar's some men left in ther hills like Anse Havey-but ef Jeb don't do nothin' I'll do hit myself"
 Again Juanita shuddered, but 1t was not the time for argument. and SO she went on. bitterly accusing Havey in her heart for his wizard hold on these people-a hold which melted them to bloodshed as the fanatical priests of the desert urge on their wild tribes men.
 She did not know that Bad Anse Ha- vey went every few days over to the desolated cabin and often persuaded the boy to ride home with him and spend a part of the time in his larger brick house. She did not know that Bad Anse was coming nearer to lying than he had ever before come in with holding his strong suspicious from the boy because of his unwillingness to incite another tragedy.
 So when one day . McBriar hench- man by the name of Luke Thixton had left the mountains and gone west, Anse hoped that this man would stay away for long while. and he refrained from mentioning to Jeb that now. when the bird had flown, he knew definitely of his guilt

Jeb McNash shook his head. A spasm of battle went through him and shook him like a convulsion to the soles of his feet He had but to crook his fin- ger to appease his blood-lust-and break his pledge.
 T done give Anse my hand ter bide my time 'twell war dead sartain." he told himself. T haint quite dead sar- tain" he told himself. '1 haint quite dead sartain yit. reckon I've got ter wait a spell"
 He uncocked the rife and the other boy rode on. but young Jeb folded his arms on the wet earth and buried his face in them and sobbed. and it was an hour later that he stumbled to his feet and went groggily back. drunk with bitterness and emotion. toward the house of Anse Havey. Yet when he arrived after nightfall his tongue told nothing and his features told less.
 
 Juanita. living in the cabin she had built with the girl who had become her compa oion and satellite. making ire quent hard journeys to some house which the shadow of illness had in- vaded. found 1t hard to believe that this life had been hers only a few months. Suspense seemed to stretch

CHAPTER xI.

That summer Juanita's cabin rose on the small patch of ground bought from the Widow Everson. for in these hills the raising of house is a simple thing which goes forward subject to no delays of striking workmen or baking contractors. The usual type. with its single room, may be reared in a few days by volunteers who turn their labor into a frolic. She had owed much to Jerry Everson and to Good Anse Talbot. for had her building force been solidly of Havey or Nc. Briar complexion the school would henceforth have stood branded, in na- tive eyes, a feud institution.
 But Good Anse and Jerry. who were tolerated by both factions, and we.e gifted with a rough-hewn diplomacy. had known upon whom to call. even while they had seemed to select at random.
 The cabin had been finished just be- fore the news came of the death of Fletch McNash. and Jerry Evefson had gone over with her to survey and admire it.
 As he stood under the newly laid roof. sniffng the fresh. woody fra. grance of the green timbers. he pro duced from under his coat what looked like . giant powder-horn. He had scraped and polished 1t until it shone like varnish. and he hung it by its leather thong abova ths hearth
