CITY GIRLS WILL NOT
MAKE GOOD ON FARM
Claim Made BY H. c. FiIIey Of
The University of
Nebraska
ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch. ,

Lincoln, Neb. March 2c.-Professor II.
c. Filley, of the department Of farm
management of the University OF
Nebraska, does not believe women
will work to any great extent on
Nebraska farms this summer. The
typical farm woman already is as
busy as she can possibly be with the
inside work, he declares, and city
girls will never do any considerable
amount of work on the farm. Pro-
fessor Filley thinks the real work
will only be done by eliminating I'M
necessary employment in other lines.
Some visionary city people have
suggested that women replace men
on the farm as the farmers wife al
ready is overworked. She not only
keeps house and rears family
says Professor Filley, "but usually
tends the poultry and often assists
in the garden. Her housework in
cludes washing, ironing, baking and
the care of dairy utensils. Just how
much work would our city friends
have her do?
''The city girl will never do any
COESlueIdUlc VI LII "oih
In the first place she does not wish
to, and in the second place she could
not do the work if she would. Young
farmerettes in trouserettes may look
very attractive, but they would be OF
very little vlaue stacking alfalfa or
helping to thresh wheat
High school boys from the cities
have been used as source Of farm
labor. Many Of these boys learn to
do good work, and become really ef-
ficient hands. The majority, how
ever, have unframed muscles and
are ignorant of the simple but neces-
sary things which every ten year old
farm boy knows. Their first few
weeks of farm work are hard not
only upon them, but upon their en-
ployers.
"In every city are thousands of
men who were farm raised and other
thousands accustomed to heavy work.
These men can be made available to
the farm by shutting down unneces-
sary enterprises. This is not day
for Injuries but for necessities.

LINDBERGH is ANTI.WAR
Non Partisan Candidate F0f
Governor Has Written Book
On the Proposition

Minneapolis, March 23.-Charles A
Lindberg, nominee of the NOnparti-
san league for governor of Mime
sofa, is author of a book sold at
socialist book stores entitled why
Is Your Country at War, and What
Happens to You After the War, and
Related Subjects" The book is cited
as proof of Mr.. Lindbergh's anti-war
attitude, showing the line which the
coming state campaign will take.
Scattered through the book are
statements by Mr.. Lindbergh seek
ing to excuse his opposition to the
country's entry in the war.
Mr.. Lindbergh's book breaches that
the war is an outgrowth of capital
ISM" and says repeatedly that it
could and should have been avoided.
"Why is our country at WARP he
asks, "and how does it happen that
already some of our best citizens
have gone and that great numbers
are about to be sent to the battle
fields in Europe to kill or be killed.
"Trespass upon our rights on the
high seas makes our cause just, still
| do not claim that it was wise to
enter the war I believe the problem
could have been settled without war
or sacrifice OF national honor"

CHARGE OF Staying
CASHIER IS SLATED
Edgar A. Strause Must Now
Face An indictment at
Peoria, III.
Associated Press Dispatch.]
rom Saturdays Daily.

Peoria, ILL.,, March 23-When Ed
gar A. Strause, former president OF
the State Trust and Savings bank OF
this city, is brought into the Prin-
cipal circuit court here, March 25, he
will answer an indictment charging
him with the Staying of the banks
cashier, Berne M. Mead. The tragedy
was enacted in the bank about noon
on December %, and created a big
sensation Following the shooting.
Strause's attorneys announced. that
he acted in self defense, but they
made no appearance before the cor
oners jury and the testimony there
given resulted in the jury's holding
Strause without bail.
Just what action will be taken
when Strause is brought into court
next Monday is problematic. Because
of his friendship with Strause, Judge
T. ~ Green has refused to have any
thing whatever to do with the case
Recently States Attorney Meme
mar petitioned Judges Niehaus and
Stone for the dismissal of Judge
Green from the principal court for
the March term and until December
1920, because of the judges attitude
, in the Strause case. The petition
was ignored by the two judges and
following this Judge Green entered
an order for an Investigation of the
states attorneys act with view to
possible contempt charges or dis
barment proceedings. He named At
torney w. G.. McRoberts as investi-
! gator.
Strause has not yet been formally
arraigned on the Indictment against
him A motion to quash the indict-
ment was filed sometime ago and
| this, it is expected, will be the first
matter to be considered March 25
| If the motion is denied, Strause viii
be arraigned Whether attorneys fol
the banker will ask for a continu-
ance is not known, nor is it known
| whether another attempt will b
made to obtain release of the pris-
oner on bail. The prosecution has
announced that it is ready for trial
