the calculation. and the several prices are for
the state, including good land and bad. Plow
land ranges from SIS per acre for poor to $50
for good, and all farm land is set down at an
average Of $l3s per acre.
What use may be made Of these figures, un-
less as basis for determining the price OF
produce is not clear. Land, like any other ma
terial thing, is Of value in proportion to its
use, and this depends on the demand for it. In
Nebraska the good land has never been titled
to its utmost capacity. Under no conditions
have the farmers of this state been required to
practice the intensive methods of cultivation in
vogue elsewhere. Greater yields are possible,
and it is also quite within reason to expect that
diversity of farming will secure larger returns
in profits. These are the factors on which farm
values finally must rest
Sales recorded and loans made are not so
dependable as the revenue actually derived
Wien it comes to fixing the basis for valuation.
And just as the limit of productive capacity is
not yet reached, so will the farms Of Nebraska
continue to increase in price as they do in
production. Nowhere in the country is the
farm owner in more favorable position as re-
CARDS the speculative element Of advancing
prices on real property.

The head of psychopathc laboratory in
Chicago sees the end of our national greatness
coming through the ascendancy of woman
Man, the lord of creation, has abdicated his
throne and ceases to be the dominant master
of his own destiny and that of all created
things. Ambition has fed, the brave spirit of
youth has departed, thought is emasculated. So
ciety degenerate, and decay is noticed every
where.
All because Woman with big wv" is to
have share. She will not be content with the
share, urges this doctor, but, like the camel
who begged to be allowed to put his nose into
the tent, she will thrust herself more and more
into mans place, and he, poor, weak, effemnate
and uxorious creature that he is, will permit
himself to be jostled out of one thing after an
other, until nothing will be left for him to do
but housework and baby-tending.
Just think of it! And while you are set
alongside it the other picture-the part that
woman has had in the affairs OF man ever since
America set about its glorious mission of es-
tablishing new epoch in the history of the
world. Isabella of Aragon pawned her jewels

unknown seas. The Mary who sat with William
on the throne few decades later aided by her
gentle ways in building up the new land. Who
has time to call the roll of those brave and ten
der women, whose devotion brought them with
their husbands to wrest home and freedom
from the wilderness.
And so on through our history, down to
now, when man has relinquished his exclusive
privilege of voting, that his mate may divide
with him the responsibility of government
Eighteen months ago four million young
Americans stood in battle array. Ask the Ger
man leaders if they found these boys soft and
effeminate, if they showed symptoms of phys
ical or moral decay and then remember that
back of each of the boys was woman, a
mother, sister, sweetheart or wife.
Go to, doctor; examine yourself, and take
course in your own institution. As long as the
boy and the girl, the man and the woman, can
stand side by side, sharing the adventures the
duties, the hardshps and the pleasures of life
kneeling at the same shrine. looking up to the
same God, and working for the same great in
stitution, the American home, our land is in no
danger because the position Of woman is no

An Unappeased Longing.

Since death became inevitable to all crea-
lures under the sun, the desire of those facing
it to communicate with loved ones soon to be
left behind, has, existed. Love, the greatest
thing in the world, and not science, has been
the force behind that wish and hope of the
ages. If there is a way for the departed spirit
to get back and communicate with spirits still
in the flesh, would it not have been found long
ago?
If we believe in a hereafter under con-
troll Of the almighty power we personfy as God,
is it conceivable that humanity on earth has
advanced to the point where revelation of the
secrets of the grave to mankind would be
deemed advisable by Him?
For the answer, 60 to the cemetery where
lie the bodies of those loved and lost. Wander
among their graves, study the trees, listen to
the winds that sigh through their twigs and
branches, gaze into the blue canopy above
Then, perhaps, will come full realization Of the
impenetrable mystery of the future to follow
"the great adventure" we call death. Then,
perhaps, will come sense of the utter futility
Of human efforts to reveal scientifically or 9TH
erwise, what God has hidden beyond the skies.

Revolution in Germany.

How serious or how extensive the revolt
konary movement in Germany is to be can not
- told 1T this time. The weakness of the
kbeYt government and its failure to meet the
xpectations of the people were so we'll known
mt little surprise at its forcible overthrow
: expressed anywhere. What Kapp will do is
2o be determined. A bulletin from Berlin says
tis government is pledged to carry out the
krovisions Of the Treaty of Versailles in good
nth, and that no restoration of the monarchy
aimed at Accepting this statement at its
hce value, the change of administration may be
tor the better. President Ebert has been hamp-
jred in many directions by the politicians;
lome astonishing coalitions Of diverse groups
have been formed, not to accomplish any good,
5ut to prevent the president from doing any
hing. A victim of this negative influence,
Ebert's regime has been productive of almost
nothing, unless its success in securing modi-
feations Of treaty terms be credited. If Kapps
brder dssolving the national assembly has its
Atural effect, it ought to relieve little Of the
pressure by giving the people a chance to vent
heir feelings at the polls. A more unified and
bnergetic assembly may easily come from this,
Ind better day for Germany. More informa-
hon will be needed, though, before definite
Eudgment can be passed.

Code Bill Referendum.

The decision of the supreme court, sending
HE code bill to the referendum, is in keeping
With the spirit if not letter Of the law. This
|does not alter the fact that the animus of the
move to hold up the measure was partisan. Con-
fusion must certainly follow in the rearrange-
|nent Of the states administrative functions, but
Rhis will only increase the regret that the issue
WAS not definitely settled at the outset and be-
|fofe it had come to the present pass. The tech
|nicality on which the petitions were denied
hxas entirely too flimsy to support the important
cause involved, and this gives strength to the

Tempering Justice With Softness.

People who support organizations for the
reformation of criminals get occasional shocks
along with their philanthropy, but seldom one
so jolting as the case OF an automobile thief re-
lated in the Chicago Tribune. He is the
brother Of murderer recently hanged, and So
cial workers were interceding to have him
given chance to "go straight" Then one
of his letters to pal was intercepted. This
is what he wrote:
I'm full Of hell. have a forty five
ready for me and about five boxes Of slugs
and four extra magazines and I'll chase
every cop meet. ;. ! like gun

and be at it again, but I'll have machine
gun this time.
A charming subject indeed for the gentle
intercessions Of soft-hearted sympathizers with
crooks-after they are caught and face de-
served punishment. Many times the police
seem too hard on offenders, but there is too
much softness now and then, as we'll.
