jh Telephone No. 3
From Wednesday's Daily
The message has been received at
Murray by Mrs. Ruth L. 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.

'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.

Preserve Eggs
To preserve eggs the waterglass
and lime methods are recommended
by the department of poultry hus
bandry of the University of Nebras
ka. 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;'

IP
For Cabbage Worms f
The worms are not difficult to con- LJ
trol, says the U. of N. Agricultural i iJ
college. 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.

Rob the Fly of a Home !
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.
