PR il Y SRS THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY, APRIT 1 LOOKING OUT FOR FRAUDS Nebraska People On the Watol For Orooked * Insurance Companies. A RATHER SUSPICIOUS CONCERN Another Slick Scheme of the Bea- trice Benevolent Fraud - Gam- blers Preparing to Move— The Mayor's Banquet. |FROM TITE BEF'S LISCOLN DUREAU.| The spring boom in fraudulent insur- ance companies is holding its own, judg- ing from the numerous communications that reach the state auditor’s offi ents in differerit parts of the state * who have their suspicions arroused by tramp insurance agents who represent Boine unknown company in secking pat- ronage. Inquiries have come from many asking after the condition of the Atchin- son and Live Stock Insurance company, of Atchinson, Kan., which 18 evidantly trying to transact business in Nebraska, Inquiries have come from A. H. Burnett, of Minden, asking about this company, also from E. T. Hodson, of Schuyler, and H. J. Linders, of Millard. The letter asks if B. Wakeman isauthorized by the state auditor to transact business for the Atchinson and Live Steck Insurance company in Nebraska. To all these the auditor has but one reply to make, and that is that thts company has not the present year and never has complied with the laws jof Nebraska, and never has been authorized to transact bnsiness in this state; neither has the above named Wakeman ever been certitied as an agent for this Atchison company in this state. t is evident from the number of inquiries rec d, and their m)minF from ali sec- tions of ‘the state, that this company is trying to do o wholesale business in the state without complying with the law. People who want to see only companies that are square enough to comply with the law do business ought to steer clear of agents of this company, and the agents will do well to keep clear of the auditor, or else they may reap trouble instead of riches for their labor. A SUSPICIOUS SPECIMEN of plans for insurance also comes to light as hailing from Atchison, Kan. This company is called by the suggostivo name of '“I'he Grand Lodge of the Na- tional Vigilantes.”” Their circulars to agents, which have been sent broadcast over the state, a number of which have been forwarded to the auditor as “‘speci- mens,” bear the name of Benjamin Young as president and L. Davis as sec- rotary. The eircular goes on to say: “We call attention to the above named sceret organization, Itis on the same principle as 0Odd Fellows, Masons and United Order of Workmen. Instead of each member having insurance on his life, as in other orders, he has in this order insurance on his live stock against theft,” or death from any cause whatever. Since this is a secret organization, and not a live stock insurance company, it does not have to comply with the insurance laws of the state, any more than other secret orgamzations which have an insurance department.” And this wonderful ecir- cular continues: “The grand lodge of this Order of Vigilantes is located perma- nently at Atchison, Kan., and locallodges are being organized in all parts of the union. The object of this order is mutual improvement, protection and insurance on live stock against theft and death, 1t at once does away with all live stock in- surance comvanies, as it is a greater safe- guard against fraud." Legitimate insurance companies will enjoy this spectacle of the National Vigi- ~lantes lodge, after the order of Masong and Odd l-u]lmvu, with the laudable end in view of insuring live stock, and itis enough to make the historic goat turn green with envy. T'he require- ments of this Masonic Live Stock lodge are that any stock owner can become a member by paying $5 on cvur{ 500 head of stock insured, and the losses are stated to be paid by what is’ known as the ‘‘grand lodge lossfund.”” The agent has a good thing ot it, for from every §20 that ho takes in as membership fees he 18 allowed to retain $19 and forward the other $1 to the “grand lodge.” It is needless to add this conumn{ has com- plied with no lawsin Nebraska. j THE BEATRICE BOUQUET AGAIN. A citizen of Lincoln, who has for two years paid without default all dues and assessmonts loyiod by the grave yard Mutuul Benevolent association at Bea- trice, and who has paid into the coffers of the concern some $73 1n cash, is now, under the alleged reorganization of the concern, confronted with a oircular in- forming him that he is o lapsed member, but that the generosity of the directors will allow him to still remain a member it _he will surrender his $3,000 . cer- tificate that he has pmd ou for the ast two years and tako in 1ts stead a ,000 certificute and presont the com- pany with §1 for making the axclmnp& This attempt at generosity will not met by the Lincoln holder, who never been a delinquent or lapsed member, and he will not surrender a $3,000 cer- tificate for one of two-thirds the amount and pay $1 to boot. Thisisa slick scheme on the part of the Beatrice outtit to re- solve that cortificats are lapsed and then oollect $1 from every one holding one of their certificates, and is in entire har- moay and keeping with their manner of transacting business. A dollar edch from all the conipany's victims would make a handsome purse to bolster up the busi- ness oflice, and the schemo is perfoctly at home, coming from the Beatrice com- pany. Phe reason given for this charac- ter of highwayman work is in itsolf a mutual admission that much of the work heretofore has been a fraud, and the cir- oular states that the company believes that agents have been insuring for a &'onler amount than they should and an the assessed could pay. The Bea- trice company needs more ventilation. PREPARING TO MOVE, It is very evident that while the gamblers are at warfare in Omaha that in Lincoln they are quietly emulating the Arabs and folding thoir fents for depar- ture. Under the Iaw that takes eftect in July the local gamblers are agreed that it will be altogether too hazardous to continua business. Duna Hyde, one of the noted gamblers, is, it is reported, already cf un(nyh his -hop. and John Sheedy, one of the veteran sports of the city, has offered his property in the oity for sale, and it is understood contem- plates removing to Denver. FEEDING THE KITCHEN CABINET. T'hursday evening Mayor Sawyer in- vited his cabinet, comprising the twenty- one extra gilt-edged citizens who placed him in nomination, up to his residence and banqueted them on the fat of the land. Itis very seldom that a handful of citizens take upon themselves the duty of reforming a eity and nominating a ticket that proves successful, and it 18 evident that the now historic twenty-one are feeling their oats, 5o to speak, for they have held at least one sccret meeting sinco election and passed upon whom their mayor should appoint to office, ABOUT THE CITY, At the state house yesterday little busi- ness of importance was to be reported. Jim Laird and Newcomer, who have a special candidute for oil inspector, were ut the cavital pushing the claims of their man. The wild poet of Puwnee, Captain Humphrey, was looking around the cor- ners of rooms in the buildings to see if he could not tind & nomination for the extra judgship in the First'distriet. Humphrey's * characteristics as a bulldozer would make pear more natural in a ward fight 1 in judicial ermine. than cl Bud Lindséy, the popular catorer to tho publie, has entirely remodeled his place of business and has had painters and decorators at work for the past two wecks creating one of the most attrac: tive rooms 1n the eity. He has just added a new and complete hig establish- ment and has all ne :ments for the restaurant department, r ing it, as heretofore, first class, Ling will in- augurate merchant lunches 1n connee- tion with his establishment, and his place will undoubtedly be one of the popular resorts of the city. The school population of Lincoln shows a large increase over & year ago. If figured on the ba: used in many other places 1t would give the city 50,000 eople. Lincoln is modest, however, and s content to place the number of its peo- ple at 10,000 less, The Life Indemnity and Investment company of Waterloo, [n., asks for admis- &ion to tragsact business in N the state auditor, and the Be tric Light company has filed its articles of incorporation with the sccretary of state. “‘Diek" Johnson, who has made of the Hurlbut hotel a great success, has lately taken charge of the cafo in connection with the house and operates it in only a first-class manner. Robson and Crane delighted a large audience at the F e opera house last evening, a large delegation from Beatric coming up to see these inimitable con diansin the “Merry Wives of Windsor.” Mr. P.

FIELD A FARM. Rpring Work in the Corn Firld. Philadelphia Record: April is the month during which the ground 1s made ready for corn, and the earlier the plow- ing shall be done the better, asa beavy frost hefore the season shall become warm assists in reducing the soil and destroy- ng insects. It is well known that the corn plant is a gross feeder, and may be supplied with any amount of manure, vrovided such be well rotted and in a condition best adapted as plant food. The corn crop is one that does not permit of the expenditure of unnecessary labor, and wherever the cultivator can be used the hoe should be discarded. It is not intended here to inform farmers how to plant corn, or. how to lay off the field and rows, as such advice would be superfluons; but there are some things connected with corn-growing that are usually overlooked and to which it is not out of place to call attention. IFirst, it will be of no advantage to resort to new varieties until such shall have been tested and found suitable for the climate and soil to which they may be introduced. It is well known that the difference in the time from germination to the ripen- ing between some varicties wul often s especially when the cen dry and the fros| carly in the fall. The corn plant 1s a semi-tropical one, and delights in warmth, It is during the period when the nights are warm that it makes rapid growthn, and mature in ninty days, the matter of va- riety is very important, Hence should-be very careful before ¢ the well known kinds. Anothes is that although the roots penetrate in all directions, and become very numerous, it is not safe to depend al- together upon the manure, as yory fre- quently the manure does not unl.irv{y de- compose until after the crop has been removed. In order to give the plants a start, no matter how fertile the soll muy be, i proposition af gome kind of soluble fertilizer should be applied when the ground is prepared. A mixture of a bag of superphosphate with fifty pounds of nitrate of soda (saltpetre) por acre will be found excellent. Good culti- vation not only keeps down the grass and w but sel as a mulel For that he cultivator should be used 1n dry seasons, as the loosened earth will serve as a covering over the roots, and not only prevent loss of moisture by c\‘xl]i!_orn(inn to a certain extent, but mere readily absorbs moisture from the atmos- phere, as well as permit the retention of a large amount of moisture from showers. The cullivator is a great factor i corn culture, and should be used as often as possible. Seasonable Hints and Sugzestions. Regarding the use of insect powder Professor Hilgard of the Uniersity of California, states that aithough the *tent caterpillars were not affected by dry vowdered buhach when it was blown upon them, vet if they received a sprink- ling of a mixture of one pound of buhach in fifty gallons of water they quickly Fl‘fi.wlm . He adyises its use ‘in green- houses or other places infested by ver- min, as it is harmless to plants, birds and animals. Breeding flocks of poultry should con- sist of the best in the whold nnmber. A dozen selected hens, mated with a choice cock, and the eggs from them used only for hatching purposes, is a sure mode of gradually increasing the quality of the stock, and by so doing the poultrym: can make a selection of particular brecus at a small cost. A Canadian diaryman_who feeds tur- nips and cabbages to his cows, that he prevents the peculiar flavor to the milk from the feed by putting gum camphor in the stenmer with the cook- ing food, which destroys the flavor with- out imparting its own odor, He only feeds such food just after milking. Every tree in the orchard should be ex- amined for insects, egg nests, ete., and after the lexves shall have started the trees fshould be sprayed with a solution of London purple.” Borers work in nearly all kind of trees, and a diligent search should be made for their holes as soon as they shall set to work. The purchase of linseed and cotton- seed for stock always gives a prolit. If the nxl))n-n.w be only returned in the product gold there however, a greater value to the manure, and hence, while the profit may not be immediately secured. the succeeding year’s crop will be Jarger. A western horticulturalist advises prun- ing rose bushes. blossoms on current point & v on the youhg shoots of the s growth (as with tho grape) the last wood should be cut away in the spring. h bud left will then make a blossom-bearing branch. Although salt and soda are said to ben- efit asparagus, analyses show that a ton of asparagus takes from the soil 2.6 pounds phosphoric acid, 6 pounds potash and 7.4 pouuds nitrogen, and thereis scarcely a trace of soda in its coruposi- tion. It is always best to milk rapidly, so as to get the milk out of the stable as soon as possible, in order to prevent the ab- sorpition of gases by the milk, as the cooler it becomes the more readily the milk is affected by odors. The honey dew found drimflmi from leaves and trees in some localities during the K:\st year, and ascribed to n disease of the leaves, is now pronounced to be a secretion of aphides that infested the trees. It is now claimed that if turnips bo grown thickly lete in the summer and left in the ground during winter they make an excellent fertitizer when turned under in the spring. One who has given the method a trial says that an excellent mode of ridding animals of lice is to dip a curry comb in kerosene frequently while using it on the hide. Bu‘ter shrinks as well as other articles, and such is often the cause of errors in reports of sales when butter 18 shipved long distances and remains unsold for several weeks. Don’t attempt to make a hot-bea unless you ean give it care. Leaving the sash oven through forgetfulness for only one night may destroy all the advantages gained, In procuring pure bred stock always consider the soil and crops grown on the farm, as that breed best adapted to the climate and conditions plone should be selected. Be careful in selecting. tomato seed, as the rot prevailed in some sections last scugon, and the proper way to avoid the ;H use is to use seed only from healthy ruit. Now that the rush of spring work will scon begin, it should not be overlooked that the horses should not be worked steadily at first, or they may be injured. In planting dwarf peas leave suflicient ground for several successions of crops, as the dwarf vari usually ripen all their pods at the same time. Plowing may be done at any timeif the frost be gone.

Corn suffers less from inscets and is surer as a crop than any other grain crop grown, Every farmer should possess a good chest of tools and a well-arranged work- shop. He can eusily save the cost of both within a few years. It has been shown by experience-that a pig digests a larger percentage of graim, converting 1t into animal increase, than a steer, cow or sheep, Thin out instead of shorteningin a tree when you transplant it. 1t is a mistaken notion thiat it is the proper way to cut off the ends of all the limbs. Not only does the linden tree produce honey in great abundance, but its quality is regarded by many as equal, if not su- perior, to that yielded by white clover. Before going into frait culture find out what varities your land is best adapted to produce and give those yarieties the pref- erence. Situation as well as soil adapta- tion should be consider One thing seems to ve been quite well demonstrated, that a larger quantity of potatoes, as well as potatoes of a bet- ter quality, ean be raised with chemical fertilizers than with manvre. The quince is a slow grower. For this reason it is an advantage to buy trees well grown, say four or five feet Irigh rather than mere slips. Such would come in bearing in_turee or four years, and prove cheaper in the end than smallor trees at a low:: vice. 1f you contemplate c vating the soil in your orchard, and have not already prepared for it, have some short whipple- trees mado with hooks on.the back neur the ends so that the traces will pass over the ends of the whippletrees to prevent barking the trees. The American Cultivator remarks that as trees are generally seraped more harm than good results from the operation. Great care should always be taken not to disturb or injure the lower and liviag part of the bark. A semmon masou’s trowel or a short-handled hoe mukes a good scraper. ) In planting apple seed¥ to get a vigor- ous growth the first year is important, as on that the number of rogts to be grafted depends, The seeds shiould be planted early on well-manured ground, and as free from weeds as possible. ‘Lhe young plants require nearly agclose care and as much hand-weeding as,unions.

Enough attention is seldom paid to surrcundings in fattening stock. Good feed, although of first importance, is not all that is requirea. Regularity of feed- ing has much to do witfimuy fattening. Cattle housed and kept warm will thrive and fatten rapidly; but,at the same time, lhef need exercise, and should be let out daily for it. Fattening hogs ought to be kept from dampness and wet. The bed especially - shotild be dry and warm. Watering regularly will also greatly aid in fattening stock. It is true that stock will fatten under neglect, but at an ex- pense of more feed and at & greater loss than if proper carg and attention are used.
