Norris Urges Repeal
OF Price Guarantee On
Wheat Crop Of u. S.

Washington, Aug. 8.-Repeal of
the government price guarantee for
wheat to enable farmers to secure
higher prices, was urged at a spe-
cial meeting today of the senate
agriculture committee. Action by
the committee was deferred.
Senator Norris, republican, Ne
braska. proposed repeal of the price
guarantee, and T. c. Atkeson,
Washington representative of the
National Grange. endorsed it.
That is exactly what the farmers
are praying for" said he.
Senator Norris. Chairman Gronna
and other committee members said
the wheat price guarantee law has
not been carried out. The $40
guarantee, the declared, was intend
ed by congress to be the minimum
price, with a higher price possible
under the law of supply and de-
mand. Instead, they asserted, the
United States Grain corporation had
made the minimum guarantee the
maximum price for the farmer.
Mr.. Atkeson told the committee
that the farmer would receive an
average of only $3.50 per bushel for
wheat this year. He and Senator
Gronna declared that had the gov
eminent not fixed the price, farmers
would receive much more than the
guarantee because of the prospective
wheat shortage and world demand.

HolU to Los Your Tan,
Freckle or Redness

days motoring, an afternoon on the
tennis ground or golf links. a sunbath on
the beach or exposure on a lake trip,
often brings on deep tan or vivid crimson
or, more perplexing still, vigorous crop
of freckles. A very necessary thing then
is mercolized wax. which removes tan, red
ness or freckles quite easily. 1t literally
peels off the affected skin--just little
at time. so there's no hurt or injury.
As the skin comes off in almost invisible
fIaky particles, no trace of the treatment
is shown. Procure an ounce of mercolized
wax at your druggists and use this night
ly as you would cold cream, washing it
off mornings. In a week or SO you will
have an entirely new skin, beautifully
clear, transparent and Of a most delicate
whiteness.

PUBLIC INVITED
TO REPORT CASES
OF PR0F|TEER|NG
Secretary Stuhr Sends Out to
All Dealers in State InStruc-
tons Relative to Weights
and Measures.

Lincoln, Neb.. Aug. s.-Any indi-
vidual who has knowledge of prof
iteering @nd can produce the evil
dence of such acts, can bring the
attention of the matter to Secretary
of Agriculture Leo Stuhr at the
state house and an investiba ton
will be made. This is the infor-
nation given out by the department.
One of the problems which con-
front the public at the present time
is the method used by retail deal
ers in disposing of fruit, says Sec
retary Stuhr. A dealer will fill up
bushel basket of peaches and put
sign thereon, $40" The pur-
chaser naturally believes that there
is bushel in the basket if it is
reasonably full,
Recently a woman called up Mr..
Stuhr and asked for information as
to how many pounds of peaches
there should be in bushel, and
when told 48, she said she had
bought basket which she supposed
contained a bushel, but it weighed
only 80 pounds.
Notice to Dealers.
This bushel problem will be one
which the Department of Agricul-
ture will try to solve. Secretary
Stuhr has sent out communications
to all dealers in the state, explaining
the law on weights and measures.
1t is in the intention of the de-
partment to rigidly enforce the pro-
visions of the weights and measures
law and violations are subject to
prosecution. This matter is being
given publicity and the public is be-
ing called upon to cooperate by
insisting upon articles being sold
by weight or count and also to re-
port any violations to the depart
ment for investigation and prosecu-
ton.
Wilson Looks PIP Law.
Asst. Atty Gen. Ralph Wilson is

ing legal data relating to punish
ment of all kinds of prohteering,

selves at the expense of the average
citizen.
There has been complaint that

Lincoln, Aug. 8-Bishop Homer
c. Stuntz, at the Epworth assembly
yesterday afternoon. spoke on The
Orient and Its Problems" The I'M
rest in the Orient, according to the
bishop, is caused by the fact that
students of those countries have
learned the higher points of civili-
zation in the schools and colleges
of England and the United States,
and returned to their homes telling
of the conditions and urging their
people to set themselves upon a
higher plane of living.
These people of the Orient have
lain dormant for centuries said the
bishop, land now they are awaken
ing and will soon become the great
est market for our produce. They
contain half of the worlds popu-
lation and are practically without
any large industry of their own. To
them we are already sending large
share of our supplies, from type
writer ribbons and automobiles to
imitation tea.
Will Contend for Trade.
within the next 200 or 800 years
the great nations of the world will
be contending for the trade of these
countries of the far east. And these
countries will soon awaken to the
fact that they are an important fac
tor in the world. and take hand
in international diplomacy, industry
and war. want to see the league
of nations adopted with the peace
treaty. 1t can be amended later.
The spirit of unrest that exists
in the Orient" he continued, "is not
a cause for us to feel alarmed. 1t is
a sign that these nations are begin
ming to think. and when even ma
ton or all Individual begins to think,
that shows they are studying condi-
tons, and it will eventually do more
good than harm. They are becom-
ing dissatisfied with their govern
ments. the sanitation of their cities,
their illiteracy and want to improve
their conditions. They have started
to awaken since their young men
have returned from our colleges.

1.-THE advent of the missionary,
the steamboat, the telephone and the
telegraph and cable lines have

word came of the closing of the
war This applied to the old party
in power. The new party. which
compcses the younger generation,

the bishop believes will soon con-
troll things in Japan, but which is

believes will control things in less
