too much work to care for a garden
twenty feet square. Mrs. Rollins is
not a novice at gardening, for she has
been out on the firing line in the
garden the past eighteen years. About
|three-fourths Of her garden this year
will be devoted to potatoes, so Will
lis assured of plenty Of potatoes next
winter
Rev. J. l.. Boyd will certainly be a
busy man this summer. He will have
a large garden across the I. C. tracks
from the passenger depot, and also
one-third OF an acre along the right
of way south of the depot. Messrs.
NJ. A. Penny and c. A. Lee will each
have generous slice OF the same
tracts of land. These gentlemen have
large enough gardens to supply half
the town with garden sass if they
properly work the ground. Will they
do it? Time alone will tell. We are
backing the boy scouts to beat them
over the top even if the above men,
toned gentlemen have as good soil as
can be found outdoors.
Rev. G. e. Hamilton will eat no idle
bread for he will work a large garden
near the cemetery. He is right now
on the work, all set, and ready to go.
Rev. Hamilton reports that the men,
bers of the Baptist Sunday school will
have a garden exhibit, date y be an
nounced later.
Mrs E. J. Miller will have a general
garden at her home on North Pine
street. If Mrs. Miller is as handy with
the hoe as her father, who is a retired
banker of Manning she will nut to
shame many of the gardens of the
sterner sex.
There should be garden in every
backyard fertile and sunny enough
to grow vegetables. Let those who
have no garden prepare to make one
now. Food will win the war" and it
will also knock the high cost of liv-
ing at home. Produce it.

Twelve Camps Supplied by Men From

Twelve cantonments within the
United States were supplied by Camp
Dodge recently with selected men who
it is assumed will see service in France
many months before less fortunate
men left at the SSth division.
The number of men transferred can
not be used, because Of the censorship
placed on such matters. 1t is per.
mitted, however, to say that the trans

that they were not completed until
Tuesday, when the last quota OF 1000
men arrived at Camp Upton, N. Y.
Men sent from the SSth division are
from Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota
and Illinois. The cantonments to

Island project, in which the Ameri-
can International corporation, headed
by Frank A. Vanderlip, president Of
the National City bank of New York,

ENJOIN ANTS
IN COURT SUIT

The Nebraska Woman Suffrage
association brought suit in the Lam
caster district court at Lincoln yes
terday to disqualify the anti-suf-
frage referendum petitions filed with
the secretary of state. The move is
made in order to obtain court action

That dead mems names and vacant
lot addresses have been placed on the
anti-suffrage petitions is charged by
suffrage investigators.
"Names of men who deny signing
the petitions, certihcations by per-
sons other than the actual circu-
lators and Misrepresentation of the
purpose of the petitions are other If
regularities discovered. according to
suffrage leaders,"
The sufragists ask an injunction
to prevent the secretary Of state from
proceeding further with the petition
and from placing the referendum on
the ballot this fall.
, Granting the injunction would per-
nit the women to vote according to
the partia! suffrage law passed by the
last legislature, members of the asso-
citation declare.

Circulation of the message ordering

PETROGRAD RIOTS.
Concerning the situation in Petro-
grad there have been no press reports
since early last Tuesday, when dis
patches reported rioting in Petrograd
in which l20 persons were killed.
Judging from latest indications in
the German press, much dissatisfac-
ton and suspicion has been aroused
by the latest move of Foreign Minister
Trotzky. Important political and mill
itary leaders are said to be conferring
busily to find the best solution to the
puzzle.

HAYS ELECTION
TO UNITE c. 0.P;;
PLEASES HOWELL.
Nebraska Member of National
Republican Committee En-
thuSiastiC Over Results
at St. Louis.

r. B. Howell, republican national
committeeman for Nebraska, consid-
ers the election of Will H. Hays of
Indiana to the chairmanship of the
national committee as portcntious of
great things Tor the future OF the
party.
Howell stated that he was con.
vinced that the election of John T..
Adams OF Dubuque, against whom evil
dence was offered to indicate that he
made pro-German statements during
August, 1914. and after the sinking
of the Lusitania, would have been un-
wiseM
George w. Perkins was charged
with having instigated the charges
against Adams, but the records were
sufficient without bringing il any per-
sonal animus against Perkins," added
Howell.
The Nebraska national committee
man believes the election of Hays
will mean party solidarity and the
breaking up of the wv. Murray Crane
clique"
More Power to Committeeman.
National committeeman in the fu-
ture will be committeeman in fact as
we'll as in name, and each will have
something to say about his respective
state" was another comment OF the
Nebraska representative of the ma
tional committee. -.
He explained that the election of
Adams to the vice chalrmanship OF
the national committee year ago in
New York was the beginning of the
old guard scheme to elevate him to
the Craftsmanship.
Howell gave The Bee the following
statement:
THE meeting at St. Louis was of
longer duration than expected, be-
cause of developments that took
place. 1t soon became evident that II
would be unwse to elevate Mr.
Adams of Iowa to the Office of chair
man of the republican national COM
bnittee, becausesof what had -been his
and anti-British and
French record. However, it took
time for some of hiS supporters to
this fact.
Brings Happy Result.
"The election of William H. Hays
If Indiana as chairman was certainly
4 happy RESULT for the republican
party. 1t means a new era in party
and / feel confident that
rom this time on there will cease to
,e charges of old guard influence and
progressive revolts.
Following the election of Chairman
Hays, all of the members of the exec
tive committee rendered their resig-
and the national committee
decided to start with a new slate so
hat it should be in harmony with its
lew chairman, and truly representa-
i've of the national committee.
Has Marked Ability.
National committeeman decided
the members were to be no longer
nominal committeeman, without pow
er in their own states. A series of
resolutions introduced by myself was
passed providing for the full recog-
1ition of each committeeman and his |
prerogatives and including a pro-
vision for annual meetings of the ma
:ional committee.
"The new chairman is man of
marked ability as an organizer. He |
belongs to the young, active element
IF the party, and | feel confident his
will reflect credit not |
only upon himself, but upon the ma
ional committee and the party"
