' But to those that Came to Nebraska fifty years ago when corn was L for 10c a bushel, wheat at 30c and there was no work at f kind of industry in the state, we cannot figure where they I the stuff that the farmer is in the worst condition in his lory. In those days there were none of the conveniences of f present day when corn, hay and cornstalks even cow chips t fuel were a luxury and many people lived a hundred miles a the railroad, it is a very poor comparison with the con-fas con-fas of today. If the present generation were to tackle the jtlships of those days, they would realize just what hardships In." The people may be hard up but there is no comparison jth the times of the seventies in Nebraska. ' ' 1 1n all of which there is a great deal of truth. It is undoubt- y true that farm values have decreased greatly during the k few years, but so have the values of city properties, and Stocks and many bonds. The reason is, of course, the general Ifiation following the period of prosperity which came a few n after the close of the "World War. 4 The fanner who owns his farm is still a lot better off than fc average city worker. The price of the commodities he fces may be low, but he has a home and enough to eat, and still much more independent than his relative in the city. 1 The demand for manufactured products " changes. The somobfle has succeeded the carriage and the music box has sen way to the radio. But in spite of the change in styles ;? must still eat. For that reason the farmer will always i a market for his produce, poor as the market may be in js8 of depression. But when sunnier days come the farmer jU get his share of prosperity. His biggest problem now is e of taxation, and as the taxes lie pays are saddled on him lloie, it is up to the farmer himself to insist on economical faseientific home government, so that taxes may be made less, p we need now is not new sources of revenue but the will I the way to see to it, that the dollar now raised by taxation fs farther and is not spent for something whicjn, could wisely pheen done without.

Fire Insurance Beginning Fire Insurance may be said to date from the Great Fire of London, Lon-don, In 1606. Several companies were formed during the remainder of the Seventeenth century and at the beginning of the Eighteenth century, some of which still exist In the United States, the first fire Insurance company to be established estab-lished was the Philadelphia Con-tributorship, Con-tributorship, which was organized on April 13, 1752. This company was patterned In many respects after the Hand-in-Hand of London, which was established toward the close of the Seventeenth century. by only the best breeding stock, will be Bold, It is hoped the agreement will, eventually, at least treble the nura Professor Byron Alder, poultry director di-rector at the Utah State Agricultural and coHego, estimates that if the 2,000,- . ... . kSIA . 1 wu cniCKa now InninWnrt worft hatched in Utah, it would furnish an outlet for nearly 4,000,000 additional addition-al Utah egga. and keep over 250,000 blooded hens busy laying them. This is a sizable industry by . itself. Not only will Utah eventually fill practically all of her own baby chick orders, under the agreement, but she will become a greet exporter of quality chicks and hatchery eggs, Mr. Alder believes. The local investment in-vestment in the hatchery business ia now over 1500,000. Egg producers, particularly thosa with breeding stock, will be benefited benefit-ed by the plan, since hatching-eggs bring premiums of from 1 to $5 per case, depending upon quality. This great market for some 4,000,000 ad dltional eggs would come in the spring when the fo"od-egg; produc tion is normally heaviest and prices lowest, making it all the more wel come. Under terms of the agreement, the poultry association, in co-operation with the U. S. A. C. and state de partment of agriculture, will select a corps of skilled poultrymen to serve in the employ of the poultry oo-op. in the supervision of bird selection and culling for breeding purposes. A definite set of standards stand-ards has been approved to be used as a control. Hatcheries will also be inspected for sanitation and cleanliness The pedigree of every male hird must measure up to certain requirements require-ments before accepted, and then the bird Itself must have the proper characteristics and pass the rigid inspection of the poultry association cullers. Representatives of the marketing association further have the right to examine all eggs which go into the incubators, eliminating any tinted shells or light-weight eggs. In supervising breeding stock, subsequent culling and selection selec-tion of eggs, these agents will have the final say as to whether or not the quality is correct. Under such a system of check and re-check, the management of the poultry association associa-tion feels confident that local producers pro-ducers can purchase Utah baby chicks with every assurance they are as good as money can buy. Any breeder or hatcheryman who falls to live up to the standards of quality quali-ty set, will be disqualified. Following are the bonafide members mem-bers of the Utah breeders' and hatchers' association, Included in the agreement to date: Timpano- gos Hatchery, Provoj Manti-Apex Hatchery, Manti; Wasatch Hatchery, Hatch-ery, Salt Lake; Ranis haw Hatch eries, Salt Lake; Utah Co-op.

Washington Star. . ea Tn,.M. K Th tipple, Glenn ,wer' Harold Glen 'MaymetU - City of Long Ago Hildeshelm, in Germany, is a city of the forgotten days when men built homes to look beautiful. To walk its streets seems an unreal experience. The Hildesheimers of centuries ago built their gabled houses, 700 of which still remain. In every fantastic shape they could conceive. They carved into their walls and doors, posts and roofs, the forms of birds and beasts, humans hu-mans and heavenly beings, and their faces peer out as you pass along the little streets or the mar ket place, where they still stand. It is a city of long ago. Gueitt Brought Coffins A custom of the Middle ages was referred to at a party to inmates of Norwich (England) Great hospital, a hospital for aged men and women. when the Inmates were admitted years ago, each had to bring a coffin. cof-fin. It was found, however, that the coffin was used as a cupboard In the cubicles, and when some of the old people died the coffln was worn out. Nowadays Instead of a coffin, each man and woman takes n II to provide a shroud. Hittoric Eatern Spot Shlmoda, on the eastern coast of the Izu peninsula, came Into the American spotlight in the middle of the last century, when a treaty was ratified there which first opened Japan to foreign trade.

America's first diplomatic representative repre-sentative to Japan resided at Shlmoda. Shl-moda. It was a tidal wave and earthquake that caused the diplomatic diplo-matic offices to be removed from Shlmoda to Yokohama in 1859. Pretty Indian Legend The custom of sacrificing a beautiful maiden by sending her over Niagara falls in a canoe was practiced by the Indian tribes about the falls. The maiden selected paddled a white canoe, filled with fruits and flowers, over the falls. It was counted a great honor to be chosen as the sacrificial victim. Once the only daughter of a Seneca Sen-eca chief was selected by the gathered gath-ered tribes. Her father loved her dearly, yet he showed no sign of erief. The revels continued the whole day, and when the night came and the moon rose the girl paddled her canoe toward the falls, amidst much tumult and shouting. Suddenly another white canoe parted part-ed from the opposite bank. It contained con-tained the chief, her father; the Snoes met, and together they went over the falls.
