New York A shipbuilding pro

than 40,000 men. whose annul wages
aggregate $60,000,000 is in progress
in the United States, according to a
report just sent to President Hoover
by the National Council of Ameri
can Shipbuilders here. The sum
paid in wages represents SO per cent
of the total cost of $75,000,000 for
the ships, the report stated.
New tonnage on order, or about
to be ordered, is sufficient to keep
the yards active until the end of
10 34, it continued, stressing that this
i3 in sharp contrast to conditions
abroad, where the reduced amount of
construction has caused unemploy
ment in the shipbuilding centers.
While the report was compiled to
refute rumors indicating a cessation
in activity in American yards, it
served the double purpose of show
ing the number of men who have
been given work on new maritime
construction subsequent to the pass
ing of the Jones-White Marine Act,
to which the council of shipbuilders
attributes the new era in American
shipping.
The liberal loan provisions of the
act and the mail contracts available
under it have given an impetus to
shipbuilding which will soon provide
the United States with a merchant
marine comparable with those of
other powers.
Contracts exceeding $140,000,000
in value for the construction of new
merchant ships have been executed,
the report stated, and with addition
al orders totaling $135,000,000 will
mean an expenditure of $275,000,
000 during a five-year period ending
In 1935.
Of the total cost of a vessel, 40
per cent is expended in the yard for
labor, an analysis showed; 40 per
cent more is in the procurement of
materials. 10 per cent for the coat
of these materials and the remaining
10 per cent for transportation, in
r.urance and taxes.

nize to Protect
from Thieves
Resident of Near Nehawka Flan
Move for Protection Against
Stealing- Stock and Fruit
For many years residents of the
country districts have suffered a
great deal from the ravages of par
ties of people in trucks and cars who
come from Omaha to the country for
the. purpose of securing walnuts,
grapes, apples or other natural prod
ucts that are found on the farms
and which the visitors feel free to
appropriate whether the farm owner
is willing or not.
Not only have the farmers suffer
ed from the loss of the walnuts and
grapes but hunting parties have
shot, mained and injured hogs and
chickens and other stock and have
been known to carry the trophies of
the hunt away with them to the loss
and anger of the owner.
The farmers north of Nehawka
have grown tired of these invasions
and decided to take some definite
steps to see that future visitations
are checked. The farmers are not of
a warlike disposition and when the
prcper kind of people visit their
plates are not opposed to allowing
them reasonable liberties if they are
asked about it, but do not favor the
visitors coming in and helping them
selves as they have frequently in the
past.
A meeting was held Sunday and
an organization or some tnirty-nve
of r.he farmers formed from the Ne
hawka neighborhood and steps taken
to act in conjunction with the office
of the county sheriff In checking the
thieving and destruction of property.
As the county officers are largely en-
paged on Sunday in rushing from
one auto wreck to another to in
vestigate, and cannot cover so wide
an area as they might wish, the
organization of the farmers propose
o have a special constable appointed
who can patrol the highways on Sun
day and check up any depredations.
arrest the parties and check the prac-
ice of invasion on the country side.
Most of the depredations are com
mitted on Sunday and a close check
will be kept in the future on the
residents from the cities who come
out to enrich their larders at the ex
pense of the farmer.

Safe Seeding Date for Wheat
"Farmers can seed their wheat
now, as most of the Fly has emerg
ed," reports O. S. Bare, Extension
Entomologist of Lincoln, who has
been In charge of observation sta
tion at Weeping Water.
. The few flies that are yet to
emerge will no doubt be out before
wheat that is sown now is up.
Cass county has been one of the
last counties to announce the date
This is due to the cool, dry weather
the last month.
Rooters Day.
October 17th is the Annual Root
ers Day at the Agricultural College
i at Lincoln. Three experimental tests
with hogs will be of great interest.
One of them deals with feeding wheat
instead of corn, another with the age
and size at which it is most profit
able to market hogh, and the other
is a high protein feed comparison
Over 200 head of pigs are in the ex
perimental tests, making the tests
among the most extensive ever con
ducted at the college.
4-H Beef Pleases Buyers.
Not a kick in $40,000 worth of
baby beef is the record made by 4-H
club members and their baby beeves
at the Nebraska State fair. Without
exception, the buyers of the beef were
pleased with the carcasses. Several
of them said they wished they had
bought more. One packing company
filled only two-thirds of their orders
on the day of the auction sale. Sev
eral companies shipped all of the car
casses out as soon as they were grad
ed. More than fifty per cent of the
carcasses graded choice to prime.
Only two were bruised and those not
seriously enough to change the grade.
Simple Way to Mix Feed.
One of the simplest ways to pur
chase and mix the high protein con
centrates of a good poultry ration
would be to buy and mix the protein
feed or concentrates and then add it
to the grain. One hundred pounds
of alfalfa meal, 250 pounds of meat
scraps, 50 pounds of dried skim-milk
or dried buttermilk and 20 pounds of
salt may be mixed together.
This amount will balance 800
pour.ds of yellow corn meal, 400
poucds of ground wheat, 200 pounds
of bran, and 200 pounds of pulver
ized oats or barley to make a ton of
laying mash for hens.
Hens getting this mash in a self
feeder should be given from 8 to 10
pounds of whole wheat per 100 hens
per day. Most people like to scatter
the whole wheat in a straw or other
litter, which is a good practice pro
vided the litter is clean.
Wheat Feeding Experiments.
Chancellor E. A. Burnett of the
University of Nebraska had charge of
the first Nebraska experimental work
in feeding wheat to cattle. A test
was run in the winter of 1901-02 and
reported in station bulletin No. 75.
The bulletin has been out of print
for several years but was recently re
vised! as Animal Husbandry Depart
ment. Circular No. 166.
In the first half of the test 29
years ago. Lot 1 and Lot 3, receiv
ed a grain ration of 80 per cent wheat
and 20 per cent bran. Lot 2 and Lot
received 80 per cent of corn and 20
per cent bran. All lots received al
falfa hay for roughness. In the sec
ond part of the test all four lots re
ceived 70 per cent wheat, 15 per cent
oil meal and 15 per cent corn as
their grain ration. Roughness was
made up of one half alfalfa hay, one
fourth prairie hay and one fourth
wheat straw.
Conclusion No. 4 in the revised
circular states, "This experiment in
dicated the feeding value of wheat
for cattle was 5 per cent greater
than that of corn."
Another test on the feeding of
wheat to cattle is under way at the
present time at the Nebraska experi
ment station. Two lots of three year
old steers are being fed for 65 days.
They will be shipped to the govern
ment experimental station at Belts
ville. Md. for slaughter and carcass
study. Representative carcasses will
be exhibited at the International
Livestock Show at Chicago in De
cember. One lot of the steers is get
ting shelled corn and alfalfa hay, the
other lot, two-thirrds ground shelled
corn and one-third ground wheat and
alfalfa hay. The steers weighed about
1200 when started on test and came
from the government livestock range
at Miles City. Montana. The two
lots of steers will be one of the at
tractions at Rooters Day, the annual
hog feeders program, October 17th.

After a vacation of two months, the
Mynard Community Club hold its
September meeting on last Friday
evening. Mrs. S. W. Cole led in the
regular "sing" which begins each
meeting. The business session fol
lowed with C. L. Wiles presiding.
After the reading of the minutes by
the secretary, Mrs. John Vallery, th--treasurer
reported a fund of $40.62.
The chairman of the house committee,
C. C. Barnard, reported the need for
a vestibule over the steps leading
down into the hall. Suggestions for
raising funds for this purpose were
given and it was decided to hold a
Chicken-pie supper with a program
either during or after the supper.
The president called upon Rev. Mc
Kdvie, the new United Brethern
minister, to make a few remarks
Which he did very pleasantly and
humorously. The remainder of the
meeting was presided over by Mrs.
E. H. Spangler, chairman of the
"east-side" program committee. The
music for the evening was furnished
by Cecil and James Comstock of
Plattsmouth. They gave a stirring
inarch as a piano duet, two trumpet
solos by James accompanied by Cecil
and a piano solo, "The Evening Star"
by Cecil. These two young musicians
show much promise and ability and
their music was highly appreciated
by the Mynard folks and their guests.
The scholars of District No. 3 direct
ed by their teacher, Miss Frances
Livingston, put on a dramatization
of the story of "The Little Red Hen."
The children filled their parts well
and the costumes were very good.
and it was enjoyed by both the little
and big folks. Miss Helene Perry
gave a couple of humorous readings
in her usual finished manner. Last
but not least came "The Fashion
Show," contrasting modern stvles
with those of years ago. While Mrs.
Roy Cole played appropriate music
the models paraded before the audi
ence, two at a time, one modern
dress, and one old style. The titles
were read by Mrs. Spangler.

The old fashioned apparel afforded
much amusement and most of the
audience agreed that the modern
manner of dress was the best.
The "kitchen" and "table" com
mittees held a meeting after the
crowd had dispersed and decided to

S. M. Mapel cream and produce sta
tion was discovered to be on fire and
soon the structure was a roaring
furnace and burned to the ground.

burned building.
The town has no fire protection
beyond the bucket brigade which
was formed by the citizens and who
did splendid work in responding and
due to their efforts the fire was held
confined to the one building altho
the heat charred a part of the sides
of the buildings of William Morley
and A. J. Johnson, the blaze was pre
vented from making further inroads
on the structures.
The loss of the building and con

most serious fire that has occurred
in that place in a number of years.
CARS HAVE SMASHUP
Sunday morning a small auto
wreck occurred near the Rock Creek
filling station east of Murray when
the car of Roy Gerking, well known
farmer of that section, collided with
a car driven by a tourist named
Sharp. Mr. Gerking was turning off
near the station and his signal was
not apparently seen by Mr. Sharp
who was coming south on No. 75
and the result was the cars crashed,.
both being damaged up to a greater
or less extent. Mr. Gerking suffered
an injury to one of his ribs that
has proven very painful.
