GREAT INCREASE
IN CORN ACREAGE
Is Expected to Make Up for the
Loss in Winter Wheat;
Oats and Barley
Are Strong.

In the Nebraska crop report for
last week Burlington officials esti-
mate the winter wheat crop for the
state at 100000 bushels, as against
64,000,0O0 last year. The spring wheat
crop is estimated at 100000 bushels,
as against 100000 last year; oats,
95,000,000 bushers, as against 80,000.-
600 last year, and barley, 100000
bushels, as against 100000 last year.
There has been an immense increase
in the acreage of corn, but it is too
early to predict the outcome of the
crop.
The weather throughout the state
was favorable for the growth OF small
grain, but a little too cold for the
corn. However, cor is reported to
have made reasonably fair growth.
Generally .ie rainfall was light and
farmers were enabled to spend prac-
tcally all their working hours in the
fields. As a result, it is said that the
corn is unusually free from weeds.
Good Apple Crop.
According to th' report, there will
be better than an average apple crop
throughout Nebraska. Peaches will
be almost a complete failure, a large
number OF the orchards having been
killed by the cold of last winter. What
applies with reference to peaches. ap-
plies equally as well to the berries
and graras. Cherries are going to
make about an average crop.
The first cutting of alfalfa is well
along, and where the plant is not win
ter Killed, the yield is up to the nor

Machinists and yet more machinists are needed for the United States navy. As whole enlstmentS are very sat- isfactory, but A. T. Flynn in charge Of the recruiting station in Phoenix has been ordered to redouble his eff forts to obtain more machinists mates and firemen.
 Following is a copy of a wire re- ceived yesterday by Flynn:
 "EnlistmentS as a whole are Satis- factory in numbers, but we are not en- listing enough machinists mates and firemen. You will make special efforts in your district to secure a large num- Der of enlistments in these two branches. In time of emergency, en- ployers, heads of industrial establish ments, civic and patriotic bodies will be glad to cooperate for purpose of se- curing trained machinists mates and recruits for firemen. You will endea- vor to secure at least twenty per cent of our recruits in these two branches. Call attention to excellent pay and possibility of quick promotion for eff ficient men. Single men are pre- ferred. You are expected to produce this required per centage without un due delay. Inform new main station and sub stations"
 Flynn was also notified yesterday that the age for enlistments had been boosted one year. In the past it has been possible to accept boys as young as sixteen years, but now they must be seventeen.
 Following is copy of the wire which him of this fact:
 Minimum age limit for apprentice seamen raised to seventeen years. Un- der age waivers below seventeen no longer granted"

one box alone and these Mrs. James says can be made from the old linens and cottons. In speaking of the yoiun- teers aid the Red Cross had received, Mrs. James told a touching story of a tiny girl who saved her funds for weeks and turned over to the association her entire bank accolnt-49 glitteTing pennies.
 The supplies thus far completed con- sist of chests 1, 3. 4, and G. numbered in accordance with every Red Cross chapter in the country. Chest 1 con- tains steriliZed surgical dressings need ed even before a hurried medical corps can set up it's base hospital. Chests ,, 4, 3 and for which the Red Cross had special request and which will be duplicated are made up of clothing for wounded men, operating gowns, caps sheets, etc, sick room supplies and comfort bags.
 In an article dealing with the work the Red Cross Magazine says:
 Tn any serious war, thousands of these boxes must be kept filled with these supplies, most of which are the product of needlework and the sewing machine. Here, in the preparation, packing and shipment of these sup plies. in sewing shirts for soldiers. if by shirts youn include bandages, bath robes, pajamas, sheets, pillow cases, and other articles which a hospital pa tent needs, American women will find opportunity for patriotic service. h. deed, they must have it here if the United States enters upon any war which puts a strain upon her resources or men and materials. Such a war would fill the military hospitals with mounded men, whose lives may depend upon the steady flow of these supplies into the hospitals. Much of the Red Cross effort at present is being directed to the spread of instruction to women to the end that in the emergency they may know how to prepare these SUD- piles to conform to the adopted stan dards.'

John W. Bate, our great efficiency expert, states this about high-grade cars:
 A 7-passenger car, to be roomy, must measure l27 inches from hub to hub. To have sufficient power under every condition, 1t must have a 48- horsepower motor. The larger Mitchell is built to fit those require ments, after IA years of experience.
 But he says a 5-passenger car is just as roomy with a 120-inch wheel base. And that 40 horsepower is enough.
 So this year he brings out Mitchell Junior-a smaller Mitchell Six for those who prefer this size.
