Hearing of the application of sew
cral Omaha corporations to enjoin the
city of Omaha from enforcing pro-
visions of the wheel tax ordinance,
which should have gone into effect

Judge Leslie granted temporary

The wheel tax provides for a tax

Food Supplies on Farms

Determining by a countrywide canvass the approximate amount or important farm products on farms of the United States that is food or convertible into food, is the part the bureau of crop esti- mates of the United States department or agriculture will take in the national food survey authorized by the food production bill recently enacted. Thirty-five thou sand picked volunteers from it's corps of 150. 900 crop correspondents will oe asked to take part in the farm survey.
 Each of the field representatives, farmer himself and thoroughly familiar with farm conditions in his community, will make a report of food stocks lnclud- ing meat animals and crops on his farm and each of these representatives Will De supplied with 10 extra schedules of ln- ouirv which he will distribute among hs neighbors, for reports upon their respec- tive farms From the 3S5, 900 reports thus obtained, the experts of the bureau, knowing the total number of farms in the United States, will make final esu- mates for the farms of the country. II is believed that this estimate, judging from the accuracy of other records sim ilarly gathered, will be within a few per cent of actual farm food stocks.
 The farm survey will begin at once A second survey about November l, sim iiar1y conducted will cover the fall har- vests.
 The bureau also will extend it's regular crop estimates to crops not reported heretofore and further enlarge it's serv- ice by special inquiries calculated to gather information arising from extraor- dinary farm conditions in certain sec tions.

The demand for breeding ewes has ex- hausted the local supply in many sec uons, the United States department of agriculture finds Western range ewes are being used to start farm flocks in the corn belt and in the south. In the corn belt these ewes have already proved their ability to produce market topping lambs when mated to good rams of mutton breeds and when well cared for during the winter and after iambing. They may be expected to do well on the farms east of the corn belt and on the hi1y pas lures of the Appalachian mountain sys- tenn.
 In purchasing these ewes care should be taken to obtain those with sound teeth, udders that are soft and pliable, and teats that are sound and have no hard cores. Ewes from one to three years of age are to be preferred. These ewes may be in thin condition but should suffer no discrimination on this account alone If thin they cost less per head than if fat and the flesh needed to put them in good condition can be put on by the purchaser more cheaply than 1t cay be bought in the open market
 These ewes are usually free from stom-

 County agents, in case farmers or groups of farmers have horses and mules to sell direct to the government. may canvass the situation, ascertain the nurl- Der and specifications or animals to be furnished, and forward offers of the own CTS to the proper remount zone of the government. The general specifications for horses and mules have been furnished to the county agents.
 The agricultural colleges and the United States department of agriculture, in talk ing this up through the county agents are anxious that farmers desiring to seI direct to the government, should give this plan a trial. It is hoped that by this plan the farmers will be able to get more for their stock and that the government will be able to obtain better horses than under the contract system.
 It is hoped that the farmers will deal in a truly cooperative spirit in undertaking g the sale of horses to the government and see that the war department receives tha best possible service and the highest quality of horses and mules possible to offer.
 Farmers interested in the method or procedure should consult with their coun- ty agents or the extension service or their state agricultural college.

Direct Marketing

Renewed efforts through staff of field agents to bring about an increase in direct marketing by use of the par eel post, express, and similar agencies will be made by the bureau of mar kets of the United States department of agriculture with funds made avail able in the recently enacted food pro- duction bill Agents will be placed In several large cities throughout the country to awaken interest in direct marketing among consumers. At the same time the agents will work through the postmasters of small towns in their territory to interest producers in furnishing supplies
 This will be the first intensive field work in behalf of parcel post market ing that the bureau of markets has been in a position to carry on. It should result in the formulation of who may be depended on to supply carefully selected lists of producers various products directly to consumers.

Buttermilk Lemonade

It has been known for a long time that buttermilk makes an excellent and healthful drink-especially the buttermilk which is made on the farm. It is rich and palatable.
 To most people this ordinary butter milk may be improved as drink by making it into lemonade. It is very easily made by mixing buttermilk with lemon juice and sugar. The amount of lemon juice and sugar to add depends on the persons taste. About two lemons and two tablespoons of sugar to each quart of buttermilk will give flavor that suits most peo- pie. When the buttermilk and the lemon and sugar have been put to. gether, then mix thoroughly. It should be mixed by pouring from one jar to the other several times This makes the buttermilk curd smooth and the mixture will have pleasant flavor. This is a refreshing and delicious drink especially on hot day.

Fight Plant Disease

Destructive plant diseases which an nually make heavy inroads into the crops of the country are to be at- tackled with renewed energy by the United States department of agricul- ture. The extended work is made pos sible by appropriations carried in the food production bill which has just been enacted by Congress.
 Special work will be undertaken by the bureau of plant industry with a view to reduction of the destructive epidemics of black rust in the spring wheat areas and reduction of the in jury from grain smut, especially in the central and western states. The bureau also will place in the field additional expert pathologists to advise coun- ty agents especially in the control of destructive diseases of potatoes. beans and truck crops and will undertake special surveys to determine the causes of injury in regions suffering heavy losses from plant diseases in order that control measures may be under taken promptly.
 In addition to it's work for the con- trol of plant diseases. the bureau of plant industry will seek to stimulate the conservation of food products by demonstrating proper methods of stor- ing such crops as may be stored in common storage, by improving the methods of storage, and by demon strating the drying of farm products.

Combat Animal Disease

A more intensive fight than ever be1ore will be waged by the United States oe- partment of agriculture on hog cholera and the cattle tick with funds made available by he recently enacted fcod produc ton bill. Between them, hog chol- era and cattle tick fever cause annual losses of approximately ssOoOo,Ooo. In an effort to stem these losses and so, in effect. to increase meat production the department will put a grealy enlarged saff, of specialists to work in the field within the next few weeks. Tick eradica- tion. which is essential to building up cattle raising in sections of the south now infested by ticks. will be extended in all affected states. Twenty-Five vet erinarians will be added to the depart ment's stan to carry on the work against hog cholera throughout the hog-raising sections of the country

Use of the Candle

The candle still has a place. The home that cannot have electric gas lights probably can afford a pretty candelabra for the dining table. This, when filled with well-trimmed candles makes a ta ble centerpiece that will give distinc- tion as well as plenty of light for the meal. Candles are also nice for bedrooms, and many housekeepers like them to use in the kitchen to supplement 8 bracket lamp.

Nutritious Greens

Here is a way to add nutriment to greens, and at the same time to vary the form in which this important food is served The suggestion is made by the United States department of agri- cure:
 Cook two quarts of spinach, Swiss chard or other greens. Drain and dress with one tablespoonful of butter. Chop and add one cupful of grated cheese and bread crumbs enough to make mix ture sufficiently stiff to form into roll. Place in oblong pan and cook in moderate oven for 20 minutes.
 When cold the mixture may be sliced in half-inch pieces and served on lettuce leaves with salad dressing.
 If desired leave the mixture more moist and bake in casserole or baking dish and serve hot.
 One of the latest inventions Is a sort of halter that keeps a sleeper's mouth closed and thus prevents snoring.
