Moorhead Tells Women How to Vote On School Bonds How, when, where and why women should vote for the school board was told by Harley G. Moorhead, election commissioner, to the social science department of the Omaha Woman's club Monday. Mr. Moorhead urged the women to vote in the middle of the morning or middle of the afternoon, if pos- sible, not in the rush hours. “Vote expeditiously,” ne pleaded for the election officials, “since I predict the greatest rush at the polling places this year we have had for a long while,” Mr, Moorhead assured the women that polling places were desirably situated this year and that it was the duty of women and men equally to interest themselves in school af- fairs. “South Side women have shown no- tably greater interest in school board affairs than Omaha women,” he said, relating humorous incidents which occurred in the last South Side election, when young girls put on long skirts, so there would be no question of their eligibility to vote. Dr. William D. Phifer of Denver gave a prohibition talk. Omaha Gets Another New Food Industry A new cereal food industry has been launched in Omaha, known as the “Youth Era Industry.” The concern is located at 6105 South Twenty-first street, where a factory and equipment has been installed. The new company provides a new outlet for Nebraska's wheat, which was the main reason for locating the factory here. The story of the location of “the factory here has considerable in it to interest Nebraskans. In 1902 Dr. M. A. Fairchild, after forty-one years of practice, began studying the food question. In Cali- fornia, in Canada and in Washington, D. C, Dr. Fairchild labored for thir- teen years to find a perfect food. Grain would not do because of the starch. After much searching the doc- tor discovered a way to change the| starch in wheat to dextrine. The proc- ess was approved by the experts in the government food department, and in 1915 a factory was established in! Long Beach to make the food. Wheat from Canada, Washington, Oregon and other states was tried, but none of these stood up on quality with Ne- braska wheat, so the doctor and asso- ciates came to Omaha to establish their industry where they could get the best wheat in the country direct from the elevators. In the near future Dr. plans to establish a training school for instructions in health, on Eighteenth street in Albright. Frederick A. Best, manager of the Youth Era Industry, reports that he has secured liberal distribution for the product in; Omaha. Saved Her Daughter’s Life. “Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy saved my daugh- ter's life when she had cholera mor- bus at the age of 14 months. She| vomited every few minutes and we were unable to keep any medicine down long enough to benefit her until we gave her this remedy. The doctor being at our house, I asked him what he thought about our using it, and he | said as he was unable to do the child any good I had better use it. The! second dose she kept down and in a short time the bowels were checked and she improved rapidly after that,” writes Mrs. Jennie Moyer, Lima, O. Fairchild | NEBRASKA CROPS WORTH $350,000,000 United States National Bank Estimate of Value of Soil Yield for the Year. SHOWING IS WONDERFUL The corn crop for Nebraska for 1916 is about 113 per cent of the normal crop, according to the annual crop report just issued by the United States National bank of Omaha, from its exhaustive survey. “Where we use the term normal,” says the bulletin, “we mean the last seven years average yield as estimated by the Nebraska state reports and thus 100 per cent represents the aver- age crop produced in bushels or tons in Nebraska as determined by the state reports for a preceding period of seven years.” The wheat crop is estimated at 119 per cent of a normal crop: oats about 140 per cent of normal; alfalfa about 136 per cent of normal; wild h.ay about 96 per cent of normal; timothy and clover about normal. Saunders county has the honor of produc[ng the most corn this year, the estimate being 6,212,354 bushels. Adams county produced the most wheat, the estimate being 2,567,864, Cedar claims_the record for oats, the estimate being 4,131,952, Buffalo county gets the cup in the matter of alfalfa, the estimate being 121,700 tons. In other wild and tame hay, Holt county leads, with an estimate of 194,056 tops.

Woman Burglars in The Guise of Maids Loot Many Houses A trio of suspected woman-burglars is being eagerly sought by the Omaha police. Yesterday it developed that three women are responsible for a.number of house robberies, and still later it appeared that these same women are playing the “trusted-servant” game as well, This came out when Detectives John Unger and Ed Brinkman made an investigation of the loss of nearly $400 worth of diamonds and expensive finery from the apartment of Mrs. W. V. Morse, of the West Farnam apart- ments, Thirty-eighth street and Dewey avenue. A diamond worth $250 stolen from Mrs. Morse was recovered in the Brodkey pawnshop, where it had been sold for $40. The detectives located the stone when Mrs. Morse received a special delivery letter, postmarked Omaha, and signed “Friend” telling where the stone could be found. Simultaneously with the robbery, a servant girl who. said her name was Lucy Page, disappeared. A woman who gave the name of Mary Blair, but answering Miss Page’s description, sold the stone to Brodkey. According to the authorities, the vanished maid of the Morse house- hold fitg the description of one of the women who had been helping in the burglary jobs, and has been getting rid of the loot for her companions. Lucy Page is now eagerly sought. She is described as a tall, slim girl, of pleasing personality and comely ap- pearance.

The headquarters will be open from morning until night each day until election day. Demo- crats are welcome to call and imbibe a little republican doctrine. The latest political bon-mot going the rounds of the state press relates to Chris Gruenther, publicity manager for Senator Hitchcock. Mr. Gruen- ther secures in advance of each visit of the senator to a town a list of the taxpayers to whom he sends letters ihviting them to the meeting, each epistle having the appearance of. a })ersonal appeal. After the meeting ollow-up letters are sent to the same persons, thanking them for having at- tended and containing an expression of appreciation that the senator had the “pleasure” of grasping the person addressed by the hand. It happens that many who receive the second let- ters did not attend the meetings, hence the humor of the situation. A consignment of Hughes buttons has been received at republican head- quarters, 477 Brandeis theater build- ing. Many requests for buttons have been received during the last week. They may be had by calling at the headquarters. Mrs. E. M.
