will of the majority. One thing is
certain neither of the members Of

for any. They are anxious to put
the school wherever the majority
say. Now as to who can vote, that
also has been determined by the at

ARGUE FOREIGN
LANGUAGE Law.
IN HIGH COURT
ConstitutionaIity of Siman
Bill Attacked by Sec
tartan School
Attorneys.

Lincoln, Nov. 17-(Special.)-
The we'll known foreign language
case was argued Monday before the
state supreme court. 1t hinges
purely on the constitutionality of
the law passed by the last legisla-
ture, known as the "Siman Ian
guage law" introduced by Senator
H. E. Siman of Winside. The law
prohibits the teaching of foreign
languages in schools below the
ninth grade, and comes to the SUI.
preme court on appeal from the
district court of Douglas county.
Attorneys for the Lutheran synod
and several Catholic schools of
Omaha attack the constitutonality
OF the law on the following points:
Quote Constitutional Rights.
Because it violates Section II of
Article 3 of the state constitution,
which reads that "No bill shall con-
tain more than one subject and the
same shall be clearly expressed in
the title" because it violates the pro-
visions of Section IS of Article 3,
which says that: "the legislature
shall not pass local or special laws
in any of the following cases:
granting to any corporation, asso-
citation or Individual any special or
exclusive privileges, immunities or
franchises whatever" it violates
Section 4, Article l, which reads that
all persons have natural and in
defeasible right to worship God &C
cording to the dictates of their own
conscience and it is the duty of the
legislature to protect every religious
denomination in the peaceable en-
joyment of its own mode of religi-
Gus worship and to encourage
schools and the means of instruc-
tom that Section l, Article /,
reads: Cali persons are by nature
free and independent and have GER
tain inherent and inalienable rights,
among these are life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness;" and because It
is contrary to the fourteenth amend
ment to the federal constitution.
In the argument Judge l. L. Al
bert said that the enforcement of
such law would deprive the young
men and women of the country
when they were children and had
their ambition to be foreign mis-
sionaries, from learning the Ian
guage of the country where they
might want to work and would also
work hardship on those who could
not understand the English Ian
guage in the home.
Makes Convincing Talk.
One of the most convincing
speeches made on either side was
that of Representative Byrum, APP
pearing for the law. Mr.. Byrum
spoke for half hour. He was fol-
lowed by Arthur Mullen, speaking
on the other side.
Mr.. Byrum said that the object of
the law was to teach the children
how to read the declaration of indie
pendence Lincoln's Gettysburg
address and other great American
| documents.
Attorneys who spoke for the law
were A. H. Byrum and Deputy At
torney General Ayers. Those who
opposed the bill were Judge Albert
and Judge A. M. Post of Columbus
and Arthur Mullen and Joseph Vo-
| tavia of Omaha.

mercial potato crop report made
public here today by the United
States bureau of crop estimates.
The crop was damaged to the ex-
tent of 10 per cent by freezing on
October 10, the report says. Most
of this loss was confined to the I'M
harvested potatoes in Box Butte,
Sheridan and Dawes counties.
There was some loss in pits not
properly protected. The irrigated
sections escaped with slight dam
age. Kirball and Brown counties
report very little, if any, loss. Com
mercial shipments are expected to
approximate 50 per cent of last
year. This is only slightly less
than estimated month ago, as the
Yields are better in the irrigated
sections than earlier reports indl-
Gated, which offsets partially the
loss from the freeze. Most OF the
dry land potatoes are grading No.
2, while a large per cent of the irri-
gated potatoes grade No. l. The
total crop is estimated to average
IS per cent of No. /, S. per cent of
No. 2 and 10 per cent culls. .
Conditions In U. S.
1.-THE condition for the United
States shows some changes over
last month. Larger yields per acre
in New York, Maine and Pennsyl-
vania offset largely the damage from
rot in some counties of those states.
The earlot movement from those
states may exceed earlier estimates.
Increased yield per acre over earlier
estimates are reported in Michigan,
while Wisconsin and Minnesota re-
port lower yields and some frost
damage, with probable decrease in
carlot movement out of these states
from earlier estimates. Nebraska
suffered loss from freeze also, but
will probably ship as many cars as
estimated, owing to the higher yield
in the irrigated sections than ex-
pected.
THE western states show de-
crease in production from former
estimates. Frost damage i'll Mon
tana, drouth and lack of irrigation
water in Idaho, disease and freeze in
late October in Washington, and
lighter yield than was estimated in
California are the chief reasons for
the decrease.

late or winter commercial potato
crop will be made in December.

TIME LIMIT SET
for MAKING TEST
|0F D AIRY COWS
Department of Agriculture
Taking Necessary Steps
For Enforcement of
New Law.

Lincoln, Nov. 17.-(Special.)--
Testing of dairy cows has been one
of the problems which the State
department of agriculture has found
it hard to handle. The new dairy
law, passed by the last legislature,
became effective July Is, 1919. One
of the provisions of the law re-
quires dealers in milk and cream to
obtain an annual license from the
department of agriculture in all
cases where the product in whole or
in part is sold to be consumed as
milk or cream when produced from
herd consisting of more than five
cows and does not apply to herds of
five or less cows. Covering the
matter fully, Secretary Stuhr of the
department has issued the follow
ing:
The law also provides that no milk shall
be sold which has been taken. (a) from
ness; CD from any animal which has not
been examined by duly licensed veterin-
aran. and certified by him to be free
from dlsease within Mn. not to exceed one
taken from any animal which has not
been examined by licensed veterinarian
must be psstuerlzed before it is offered
sale. This latter provision applies to the
sale Of all milk and cream regardless of
the size of the herd from which 1t is
produced. whenever the product is sold
The policy of the department of Agri-
culture has been to give ample time to the
owners Of dairy cows in which to have
the same tested. An effort has also been
10 TO .,,tkk u.
especially the boards of health who would
naturally be Interested in the enforcement
Of the provisions of the dairy law. Mem
bers Of these boards are requested to in
form the department Of any violations Of
tho above provisions or any others of the
dairy law. so that prompt action can be
taken in enforcing this measure.
The licensed veterinarians are requested
to co-operate in every way possible and
especially in the way of designating a
certain day at which time cows can be
for testing will be as small as possible for
the owners of these small herds. Veterin-
arians are also requested to ahere to the
scale Of fees for such tests as have been
recommended by the Bureau of Animal
Industry Of this department
County agents are asked to cooperate
by giving every assistance possible to the
owners Of dairy cows. in punching them at
so that tho fee for testing can be reduced
to a minimum and not be burden, especi-
all" to the one COW or small herd owners.
This is subject in which everyone is
vitality interested The owners of dairy
herds should be interested in knowing that
their herd is free from desease; the public
at large Is interested in obtaining the best
quality of milk possible, so that everyone
should cooperate in every way possible
and assist in carrying out the provisions
of the dairy law.
1t has been deemed advisable to set a
date prior to which dealers Of milk must
be licensed and dairy COWS must be tested.
This date has been set for February l,
1920 After this date 1t will become neces-
sary for the department of Agriculture to
prosecute violations of the above provisions
of the dairy law
