MERCHANT SHIPS
Emergency Fleet Corporation
Calls for ALI Vessels Over
$500 Tons; Work is
Speeded Up.

Washington, Aug. 4.-The Emer-
gency Fleet corporation today re-
Questioned all merchant vessels of
more than $500 tons now building in
American shipyards. Double and tri-
pie labor shifts will be put in the
yards to speed construction.
No announcement has been made as
to the amount of tonnage taken over,
but the shipping boards records sho,3
that about 700 vessel of nearly D.
100000 tons of all classes are build
ing.
AS fast as the yards are cleared of
their present construction they will
be put to work on the great fleet the
government will build, Compensa-
ton for the construction seized will
be determined later.
Much of the tonnage building is
for British and Norwegian account.
Its final disposition will be left to
negotiations with the governments
concerned, although the president has
power to retain. it if the tonnage is
needed by the United States.

FARM TRACTOR SHOW
WILL OPEN MONDAY
Forty Two Manufacturers Will
Exhibit Models at Fremont
Demonstration; ~ity
HUNS With Activity.

Forty-two tractor manufacturers
will exhibit tractors at the Fremont
National Power Farming demonstra-
ton which begins Monday morning
and lasts all week.
Thirty-six other manufacturers will
exhibit accessories.
This gives some idea of the pro-
portion to which this national power
farming demonstration has grown in
Nebraska. In 1918 at the first Ne
tional Power Farming Demonstration
there were fifteen tractor manufac-
turers who entered their machines
and the attendance at the show was
about $4,000. In 1914, twenty-five
manufacturers entered and the at
tendance was about 10000.
In 1915 there were twenty-eight
entrants and an attendance of 10000
In 1916, with seven other national
shows in the corn belt, thirty-two
manufacturers entered at Fremont
and 10000 people came to see the
machines. This year there are forty
two manufacturers entered and we
look to see great jump in attend
ance figures.
The number of entries does not give
an idea of the number of machines
on the field, as few companies have
Just one machines, some having seven
or eight different models. Besides
this, there are a number of accessory
companies, with implements, ETC., who
will be there.
Already on Ground.
Fremont is humming with activity.
A tent 200 feet long houses the acces-
sorry men. Advertising agencies from
Detroit, Chicago, New York, Cleve-
land and Philadelphia have repre-
senatives already on the ground, for
the as'ern agencies have learned that
the Fremont show is the one great
tractor show of the country.
Machinery worth in the aggregate
of 81 100000 will be exhibited at the
demonstration this year. A field of
5000 acres has been leased, upon
which the demonstrations will be
made.
A watermelon day is again planned
by Fremont people. Carloads of wa
termelons, luscious red melons from
Florida, will be sliced and given to
the visitors free of charge.

or are planning to give their children a breath of the good fresh air of the country and a chance to roll on the grass or ride on the hay and taste the joy and freedom of country life Or visit to the seashore with its in vigorating breeZes and chance to dig in the sand is planned. All this IS done that the children may gain In health and strength and be ready for the winters work. But let us not for get that there are many mothers who for one reason or another cannot give their children this coveted pleasure. Let us not forget the mothers who must remain here in crowded quarters where the heat is great and the noises distracting and whose bal bies and small children must stay With them. If every fortunate mother who can take her child away would remem Der to send to the Infant Welfare station even small gift of money, it would enable the tired mothers with sick children at home to have help in the care of their families and also would make life easier and better for the little mothers who in vacation days are should dering burdens too heavy for their years.
 Among all the recent advice on the best use of food We have never found any suggestion of curtailing the supply of milk for the children. Don't for get to send a portion of your vacation money to be used to buy good clean milk for those children who are to be our future citizens. Do your bit before you go and your vacation will be doubly beneficial.

Why Flats Are Popular.

People are still trying to answer
the question of why apartment houses
are so popular, but the answer should
come, it would seem, without much Of
a struggle. 1t is simple. 1t is due to
the ambition of people to have beau
tiful surroundings, the difficulty of Sc
curing domestic help and the growing
incidence of the human race. 1t is
not quite fair to talk about the sndo-
lence of the human race when 1t
seems that every man and every wom-
ans time is taxed to the utmost with
affairs of one kind or another to which
they are compelled to give attention.
They have so many things to do that
they do not get time to do the things
they would like to do. This is city
argument. 1t will not apply to the
small city to such a great extent
