The mule was hitched to a two

The mule was paid s1.25 per day

Indeed, the mule had the best of it
in other ways. If the weather was
too bad for work, the mule had snug
shelter and three full meals day
If the man lost a day, it meant less
food on the table and less coal on the
fire. Enough lost days meant I'M

If the mule got sick. a skilled

was too valuable to lose. If the man
got sick, it was nobody's business to
see that he got we'll. There were
plenty of others to take his place.

TRUCKS prove
SUCCESSFUL IN
HAULING HOGS
Fremont Man Says They
Prove Better and Cheaper
Than Railroads for HauIs
Under 100 Miles.

Transporting hogs to Omaha
markets within a radius of so to rs
miles by truck will eventually take
the place of transporting them by
rail, according to D. w. Harness, a
young farmer of Fremont, Neb. Mr.,
Harness yesterday arrived at the
South Side market with truck Of
10 hogs.
II live about Is miles on the
other side of Fremont" said Mr..
Harness, "a total Of about so miles
from the Omaha market. ! loaded
this morning about 4 o'clock and got
in here a little after 7. The roads
we're fine. The going was so easy
that the hogs slept about all the
way in and there was no shrinkage.
that's one big advantage over ship
ping by rail. The hogs don't get
bumped you don't have to load
them till you're ready to start; there
Is no waiting Nor stock cars or
tfains, and not the slightest delay
at the chufes in unloading.
The cost is quite an item, also.
Trucking companies at Fremont are
charging about SIS load for haul
ing stock in. They have to go some
distance into the country to get the
stock. A lot of farmers are beating
that figure by getting their own
trucks. A truck is indispensable on
a farm now days."

drive TO RAISE
MONEY FOR WAR
VICTIMS IS ON
Dr.. Thomas Head Speaks al
Luncheon in Chamber Of
Commerce; Headquarters
on Court House Lawn.

The drive to raise $4,000 in Oma.
ha and Douglas county for the re-
lief of millions starving in Armenia
Syria, Persia and other suffering
nations in the Near East, was
launched yesterday at a MONDAY
luncheon at the Chamber of Com
merce with an address by Dr.
Thomas D. Head, of Bristol, Eng
land, prominent business man and
authority on conditions prevailing
in the Ottoman empire.
The campaign is being conducted
by the Advertising Selling league
and will continue throughout this
week.
DR.. Head has had an intimate
and thrilling experience with the
situation in the Near East, having
represented his own government
and worked in connection with the
Red Cross in relief efforts, among
millions of the people, who have
been outraged plundered and
butchered by the thousands at the
hands of Turks and Grmans. He
is working under the auspices of the
American committee for Armenian
and Syrian relief.
Large Crowd Present.
The large dining room contained
nearly 500 persons when E. G.
McGilton, acting as cha oman OF the
gathering, introduced the speaker,
DR.. Head pointed out that the
geographical position of Armenia
offered barrier to Germany and
Turkey in their progress towards
the east, and because of this situa-
ton Germany's plans of deporta-
ton, which were executed by the
Turks, resulting in thousands Of
deaths, were put into operation
against a people pro-ally in their
sympathies. The speaker declared
that the Armenians identified them
selves with the Russians, not in
sympathy with the objects hoped
for in the latter country, but be-
cause they saw an opportunity to
aim concerted blow at their tradi-
tional enemy, the Turk.
Armenians Are Proud.
"The Armenians are proud peo-
pie" he said, and the idea of ac-
cepting charity is obnoxious to
them. The plan is to use the $780,
100000, which this nation is going
to raise, to help them help them
selves. We will establish industries,
hospitals and other institutions,
which will enable them to contribute
with their own hands labor and eff
forts, which eventually will be their
salvation"
Turkey could not depend on the
Armenians as soldiers" DR.. Head
continued, because of their pro-ally
sympathies, and they were sent back
