Ycu probably have seen parades in your life time but none like this will be in
other words it's going to be a HUMDINGER. This parade will comprise not only
floats from the business houses, but numbers representative of every interest in
Plattsmouth also floats from other cities. There will be strange and wonderful
creatures from Samson's den there will be a bevy of Bathing Beauties, Black
Faces, Mutt and Jeff, Andy Gump, Eppie Hogg, two Bands and possibly three,
two Drum Corps, one Drunk and Bungle Corpse, one German Band, 3 Elephants,
one Cams! and other features too numerous to record. This parade is sure going
to be a knockout. By all means, don't miss it. Bring the children they will enjoy
it especially. Equal to three circus parades in one. Remember, at 10:30 o'clock!

Late Vegetables for Winter.
Seed for the carrots, beets, ruta
baga, kohlrabi, turnips and Chinese
cabbage that is to be stored next
winter be planted now. The old
radish and lettuce rows, the first
peas, and the beans that are stripped
for table use may be cleaned out and
the new seed planted in these spaces
in the garden. If a few flat head
cabbage have been planted, they
should be set out now for late fall
cabbage that can be buried for win
ter use. These ate vegetables will
not be as course and woody as those
planted in the early spring. They
may also make up for some of the
garden already lost because of the
dry weather.
Some Canning Suggestions.
Canned vegetables and fruits may
spoil simply because they were not
washed clear before they were can
ned. The soil contains bacteria
which causes spoilage. Peas, beans,
and asparagus should be washed be
fore anything else is done to them.
Berries should be washed before they
are hulled as well as after. If wash
ed in a strainer,' the water may be
run over them until it is clear is
comes thru the strainer. A vegetable
brush is a great help in cleaning some
vegetables.
Two hours from the garden to can
is one of the best slogans in can
ning all vegetables. They should be
handled while they are fresh and
crisp instead of after they have lain
over night or for a half day or more.
Even tho the dew is wet in the morn
ing, it is far better to pick the peas,
beans, sweet corn, and other vege-,
tables in the early morning and can
them right away than to pick them
the night before while they are dry,
hot, and wilted. Flat sour may start
by morning in the vegetables that
are picked at night and allowed to
lie until the next morning.

Greenwood has a real ball team

county in hope that they might find
the persons responsible for the out
rages that have caused a great deal
of loss to the farmers and residents of
the country districts.
The apprehending of the chicken
thieves is a matter of the greatest
difficulty as the losses of the chickens
are not discovered until several hours
after the visit of the robbers and con-
seauentlv there is little chance of
getting a trace of them unless through
the sales that may be made to the
dealers in the county and who are re
quired by law to keep a register of
the number of chickens bought and
the parties selling them. However the
wise thief can motor with his load of
fowls to the larger markets at Omaha
and Lincoln with ease and get rid of
the stock long before the law can get
hold of the fowls.
The identification of stolen chick
ens is also a matter of difficulty and
has proven a great stumbling block
to the. enforcement of the chicken
stealing law in all parts of the state.
