Amick an nouncing the sad news of the death of her grandson, which had occurred near Wheeling, West Virginia. The death of the young man came as a great shock to the relatives in this county and following the recep tion of the message early Tuesday morning the grandmother, Mrs. Amick, and Mrs. Everett Coolman, a sister, departed for Wheeling to at tend the funeral services. The cause of the accident that re sulted in the death of the young man was not given in the message, but it is thought by the relatives that it was caused from some auto accident. The deceased young man was the second son of Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Amick, former residents of this city, and a grandson of Mr. and Mrs. John R. Hall, Mrs. Amick having formerly been Miss Rosella Hall. The young man was born in this city and was a young lad when the family removed from this city to Arkansas and later to West Virginia, where they have since resided. The old friends will join in their sympathy to the members of the be reaved family. From Wednesday's Daily The work of graveling the King of Trails highway from this city south to the Otoe county line and also a mile from the highway into Murray, looks good for an early start. It will not be surprising if the com pany does not have its equipment on the scene of action this week. The practical use of the gravel that is supposed to underlay the hills in this section of Cass county is be ing investigated and it is thought that it may be "possible to uncover pits that can supply the gravel that may be needed in the use on the road3. The price of the gravel under the contract has been fixed at 19. S9 per square 3rard. and with the use of local gravel close to the scene of op erations would make the work go a great deal faster and eliminate the necessity for the long hauls of the gravel that otherwise would be necessary. The city of Plattsmouth is now- planning to carry on the work of ex tending their part of the hard sur facing program from the end of the present paving on Chicago avenue out to the point near the J. A. IMtz property where the state and federal highway starts, which, when com pleted, will give oen of the best pieces of roadway in the state. From Wednesday's Daily The reports from the Immanuel hospital in Omaha state that Clyde II.- Graves of this city is doing very nicely at that institution where he was operated on last Thursday morn ing for rupture. The young man has stood the ordeal in very fine shape and his improvement has given the greatest of satisfaction to the mem bers of the family and the attending physicians and with the present rate of improvement it is hoped in a short time to have him back home again.

From Wednesday's Dally The home of Mrs. Martha Weten- kamp on North 9th street was the scene of much merriment last Sun day, when the relatives of the hon ored guests. Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Bar ker, went to bid them farewell. Mr. and Mrs. Darker departed on Tuesday for Perry, Oklahoma, to vis it their brother, Edgar Barker and family, after which they will return to their home near Holdrege, Neb. Members of the party brought bas kets of good things to eat, also freez ers filled with ice cream and lots of delicious home grown strawberries. and when the call for dinner was sounded everyone was ready to do his or her part in disposing of the abundance of fine viands. Invocation was offered by Rev. Edwards of the Mynard U. B. church, after which the dinner was served cafeteria style. Although the afternoon was made disagreeable outside by the wind and rain, the time was spent most pleas antly In general conversation and n singing some of the old familiar songs, with Mrs. Edwards at the piano. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. Claud Mayabb and family, Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Ilennings and family, Mrs. G. J. Meisinger and son, Mr. and Mrs. R. G.

Wescoit's Sons 'ON THE CORNER" Last evening the members of the Young Men's Bible class of the Meth odist church enjoyed a very fine time at the rooms in the church building which was very largely attended by the members of the class. One of the chief features of the evening was the address of Attorney J. A. Capwell, new president of the class, who discussed the reserve of ficers training camp and the general proposition of the need of an ade quate national defense in view of the fact that there has been no partici pation of the nation in the moves for international peace ' and security pacts that would insure the elimina tion of wars and the causes of war. The crying need of the day was, Mr. Capwell stated, statesmen to carry on the problem of peace and preserve the fruits of human right3 and lib erty that had been the result of the World war. , GIVE DE M0LAY DEGREE From Wednesday's Dally Last evening Cass chapter, Order of DeMolay, held a very largely at tended session and which marked the conferring of the DeMolay degree on several of the young men of the city, who completed their entrance into this fine order for boys. The work was put on by the local officers and was witnessed by a very large num ber of Masons. Among those who were given the degree were Edward Patterson, Ralph Wehrbein, John Bauer, Jr., and Earl Troop of near Nehawka. The Order of DeMolay is composed of boys from 16 to 21 years of age and at the time of reaching their majority the members are automatic ally taken from the ranks of the ac tive membership, and for this rea son It is necessary to keep the con stant number of the younger boys entering the uplifting and inspiring work of the order to keep up the membership. The local chapter has had a 'very pleasing growth and has secured a very high type of boys for its mem bership both in the past and at the present time. While not a part of the Masonic fraternity in any way, the order is sponsored in the differ ent places by various Masonic bodies and has served and is serving a great cause in the making of better men and citizens. Produce Infertile Eggs Now is a good time to sell the rooster; he is of no use to the flock anymore. it the roosters are sold the flock will produce better mark- able eggs.

Margaret and Glen Puis, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Engelkemeier, , Clara and Florence Engelkemeier, all of the Episcopal church were veryjof Plattsmouth; Mr. and Mrs L. pleasantly entertained at the home of Mrs. R.

Waterglass solution is made in the ration of one to nine quarts of boiled water, i. e., water that has been boiled and cooled'. This amount will be enough to preserve fifteen dozen eggs. Allow about two inches of this solution over the top layer of the eggs and place the container in a cool, dry place with a tight cover so as to prevent evaporation. Dissolve two or three pounds of unslaked lime in five gallons of water that has pre- . . . . , viously been boiled and allowed to ! Business forms oi ell itinds printed cooled and allow the mixture to ! at the Journal office, stand until the lime settles and the j nmmm -,r.- , liquid is clear. Place clean, fresh! " eggs in a clean earthenware crock or j jar and pour the clear lime water 'r;' into the vessel until ered. At least t lution should cov ?ggs. preserve oniy iresn, ciean un-ii washed eggs.

Repeated experiments have shown that arsenate of lead is the best remedy. This material may be i sprayed on, using two pounds to 50 j gallons of wrater or in small quanti- ties two tablespoonfuls to a gallon of water. The adhesiveness of the spray ' is increased cy adding an equal , weight of laundry soap. Lead arse- j nate may also be dusted on the young plants tising one part by j weight of the powdered form to five ; parts by weight of hydrated lime or j flour. The mixture is placed in a ' gunny sack shaken over the plants, early in the morning after a heavy j dew. This material can be used with I absolute safety. The outer leaves i contain most of the poison and these ; are removed before the cabbage is cooked. Chemical analysis has shown that 25 cabbage heads dusted or sprayed in the ordinary way would , have to be eaten by an adult human at one meal before serious effects would be produced by the poison.

Wliere do all the flies come from? Some years they seem to be bad, other years they do not bother much. Weather conditions make some dif ference but farmers who get their barnyards well cleaned of manure in the spring or early summer are never i bothered much by flies around the barns. Investigations made by train-; ed men have shown that straw piles and the hay In the bottom of the feed racks with a foot or two of damp, rotting hay in it, or a straw . pile rotting near the barn will mean millions of flies around all summer.; If this hay or straw Is scattered on ! the fields or on the pasture where it ' will be dry most of the time, it will harbor few flies.
