eral assembly is that of %watchfully
waiting. No constructive business
has been taken up for consideration
in the two legislative days now at an
end. The disposition on the part of
the upper house is to await the action
of the lower body. When that bust
ness is received it will be promptly
acted on without undue amendment or
any other kind OF fuss. The attitude
of the senate is to dispatch nee
essary business and that only, and
bring the session to q close. This is
practically the unanimous sentiment.
The senate convened at 2 O'clock
and after prayer by Chaplain Strutz
and roll call a number Of petitions
were received and placed on file.
There were three with reference to
the ratification Of the national consti-
tutional amendment and two with
reference to theshome guard.
National Prohibitions
The temperance committee, having
had under consideration the concur.
rent resolution for national prohibit
ton, reported the measure f%avorably
with the recommendation that it be
passed unanimously.
The committee on state affairs rec.
commended for passage an amendment
to section 176 of the compiled laws Of
1913, and the indefinite postpone
mcnt Of joint resolution No. T.
The senate reappointed the com.
mittee on mileage which acted in that
capacity in the original session.
Four New Bills.
Bills were introduced by Senators
King, Gibbons, McCarten and Rowe
and numbered respectively II, 10, IA
and Is. They are Of similar char
acter to bills already before the house
and suggest nothing new in the line
Of legislation.
The senate at 2:3O adjourned until
Is o'clock to await the disposition of
the house. When the body was again
called to order the clerk of the house
appeared with bills numbered Z, 2, 4
and 10 calling for concurrent action.
They were assigned to- the proper
committees and the senate adjourned
at 3:45 until 2 o'clock this afternoon.
On today's calendar Senate Bills 8,
2 and 13 appear for consideration, to.
gether with House Bill 8.

taken occasion in some of his ad-
dresses to- call attention to the lack
of patriotism of certain leagures.
Resolution in Committee
That resolution still rests in COM
mittee, and The Tribune was advised
Thursday evening that 1t will be
there. The fraction Of a bill not pass
ed was that section Of the hospital re-
lief measure which would place $780,

state board OF control to make up q
deficit due to the loss Of last years
crop and the heavy increase in the
cost of all supplies. The first section
Of the hospital bill, providing that
the board of control may charge not
more than $24 per capita for the care
of insane patients, as against the pres"
ent maximum of SIS, passed without
opposition.

THE FAMER'S GOLDEN OPPOR-
TUNITY

Nowhere in the wide world has
anyone profted more from the war
than the American farmer. Prices OF
cotton, rice, sugar, grain, livestock;
in fact, everything the farmer has to
sell are higher than he ever dreamed
of-and the end is not yet.
Unlike the farmers of France, OF
italy. Of Russia, and of other coun-
tries in the war, the American farmer
a go about his work, sowing in the
spring and feeling that his fields will
not be overrun by the enemy before
harvest; reaping in the firm knowi-
edge that his stored grain will not be
seized by a ruthless invader.
IT'S true the farmer has his troubles.
Help is hard to get, and the cost OF
production goes up month by month.
What the farmer has to buy also adj
vances continually in price, but the
farmer, unlike the city dweller, can,
if he desires, purchase very little and
still get along. His living is right on
his farm. What he purchases else
where is largely in the line of luxu-
ries. He can sell now, while prices
