IRRIGATION RESULTS oF CONGRESS Winter Wheat in Excellent Condition d Sudden Ch in Wenther Falls to Cause In- Jary. , _(From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Feb. 28. — (Special.)—State Superintendent Fowler will soon issue to the eighth grade and high schools of the state a work on the history of Amerlea during the year 1901. The book was pre- pared at the request of Mr. Fowler by W. Caldwell, protessor of American his- tory in the University of Nebraska. An edition of 25,000 has been printed and it e the intention of the department to place one copy in the hands of every eighth grade and high school pupil in the state. The volume consists of thirty-one pages and touches upon political history, In- dustrial life, reform movements, educa- tional progress, religious work, scientific researches, military affairs, necrology, colonies and dependencies and foreign re- Iations. All rights of the publication reserved’ by the state department. The book contains pictures of Willlam McKin- ley and President Roosevelt. Nebraska's Thirty-Sixth Year. Tomorrow will mark the beginning of the thirty-sixth year of Nebraska's state- hood, the territory having been admitted into the union on March 1, 1867, thirty-five years ago. From tomorrow until March 1, 1903, official documents bearing the great seal of the state will be dated in the thirty-sixth year. Home from Irrigation Congress. Governor Savage and State Engineer Dobson returned today from the Inters irrigation congrees, which met Wednes and Thweday in Sterling, Colo. Both were gratified at the enthuslasm displayed at the meeting and especially at the in- terest shown by the Nebr: elegates, who formed a large part of the congress. Three states were represented, Nebraska, Colorado and Wyoming. Upwards of thirty delegates were present from Nebraska. “We adopted resolutions similar to those adopted at the recent meeting with appropriation in the river and harbor bill for the construction of irrigation reser- voirs in the arid and semi-arid regions | and the repeal of the desert land act, the commutation act and the stock reservolr act. It was also recommended that an a: nual appropriation of $250,000 be made for investigations by the United States ge logical survey. Heretofore the appropri tion for this work has been $100,000 an- nually. We also asked for an appropria- tion of $76,000 for irrigation investigations to be conducted under the direction of t Department of Agriculture. Congrese made a small appropriation for this work last year, amounting, I think, to $30,000. Some of the Investigations were conducted in this state by O. V. P. Stout of the university. The irrigation congress thought the work should be enlarged. “Nothing was sald in the meeting about the compromise irrigation bill. The Colo- rado delegates did not favor any national appropriation. They thought that private capital would carry out-all practical irri- gation schemes in their state. “The attendance at the meeting was much larger than expected. Our ses- slons were held in the courthouse .and the room at all times was filled to its ca- pacity. ‘The Nebraska delegates cut an important figure at the meeting and the people out there were surprised to see so many of us in attendance. There were ten men there from North Platte.” Good Crop of Winter Wheat. Director Loveland of the United States weather station says the reports he has recelved during the past few weeks indi- cate that the crop of winter wheat now in the ground is in an unusually good condi- tion. “My advices are contrary to the reports printed in me newspapers that wheat suffered greatly in the last prolonged cold period,” sald he. “For the purpose of ascertaining the condition of the growing plant I asked our correspondents in various parts of the state to take up pleces of the ground containing wheat and put them under shelter. The result was that in nearly every instance the plant began to grow rapidly, showing that scarcely no dam- age had been sustained. ‘The winter wheat flelds were generally well covered with smow during the first twenty days of the month, continued Mr. Loveland. “The snow melted slowly during the last ten days and the ground is now practically free from snow in all sectione. No conditions unfavorable for wh de- veloped during the month and the crop continues generally in good cohdition. Some slight damage was done by the dry weather early in the season and on high land, where the snow was blown off. But this applies to only a small part of the acreage.” Questioned regarding the effect of the change in the weather which took pla today, Mr. Loveland said: “Such flurries as these will not damage wheat unless ac- companied by sleet. At this season of the year we are bound to have freezing and thawing alternately, but unless the weather is extremely cold mo damage will result. A slight freeze, even If the ground is moist, will do no harm. So far as I ean tell from the present indications, there is no pros., pect of & sleet storm.” New Incorporations. Articles of incorporation of the Stuart bank of Stuart, Holt county, were recorded in the secretary of state’s office today. The institution is capitalized for $25,000. The incorporators are: Lawrence W. Weaver, Thomas F. Memminger, A. H. Bohannon, Benton Maret and G. A. Luikbart. The Dawson-Nemieha Telephone company has reorganized, with a capital stock of $10,000. Its incorporators are: Joseph G. MecGinnis, Rice Page, Frank L. Blakeny, R. E. Fenton, Joseph G. Heen and W. G. Hummel of Dawson and Oliver C. Ayres of boldt. 1 tate Superintendent Fowler has returned from the meetl of the superintendents’ section of the National Educationsl asso- clation in Chicago, Membership in this or- ganization is limited to state, county and city superintendents. There were forty rep- resentatives of Nebraska in sttendance at the meeting. Clerk R. E. Herdman of the supreme court has returned to his duties after an lllness of eeks, during which he was confined in a hospital in Omaba.

As a Reliable Specific for the Ills Incident to the Vicissitudes of their Occupation. As a Safeguard against Coughs, Colds, and Other Catarrhal Derangements, Policemen Find Peruna Indispensable. Whether it rains 6r whether it snows; whether it be night or day; whether the thermometer stands at 100 in the shadé, or 10 degrees below zero, the policeman must be up and doing. Not only must he brave the elements as he finds them, but he must wear his uniform. No shirtwaist for the policeman. No fur overcoat for the man who patrole our streets night and day. No wonder such men appreciate Peruna. Peruna strengthens the mucuous mem- branes that line the respiratory- organs. Peruna hardens the system againet catoh- ing cold.

H. Goodfellow, miles north of Jackson, to determine whether there is a coal supply at hand that will justify opening a mine. This farm is a portion of the 1,000 acres of land leased by the Sloux Beet Syrup and Preserving company for pros- pecting for coal mines. The company is anxious to secure its own fuel in this way and is willing to go to the expense of de- veloping the territory in order to secure the benefit of the great economy. It was three years ago that, in digging wells, coal velns were found on the Riley and McBride farms, three miles north of Jackson. One vein—of six feet—was dis- covered at a depth of 160 feet, d another of three feet 110 feet down. Geological experts have hooted st the idea of mining coal in Dakota county, but practical business men seem disposed to learn for themsplves. Geological experts bave, on occasions, been mistaken, and coal was-actually found which proved of good quality. W. B.
