"The papers here have been play ing up Bill Griffith and Eddie and Anton Jedlicka as merely 'misunder stood youths,' " Beal said. "As a matter of fact they are the worst type of criminals. If they beat the chair or get only a short prison term it would encourage other pre cocious youngsters to enter lives of crime." Griffith, the seventeen-year-old high school football player with the "superiority complex," displayed some of his spoiled youthful traits Monday. His attorney, Gene O'Sullivan, had asked for postponement of his police court arraignment because he could not be present on account of other duties.

He waived preliminary examination, pleaded not guilty and was bound over to district court and taken to county jail where he hoped "the grub will be better." Griffith, in interviews to the press which he "grants" lavishly, already is planning on what he will do when he is released from prison. He reject ed suggestions that his best course would be to ask Beal to let him plead guilty to second degree murder and take a life term. "I fired only one shot and that went off accidently when I stum bled," he said. "I'm not as guilty as Eddie Jedlicka who fired seven teen. My bullet did not strike Sulli van, but most of Eddie's did." Griffith seemed to take it for granted that his attorney would "beat the rap" for him. His confessed list of crimes grew to twenty-one when he admitted four more holdups to Chief of Detectives Paul Sutton. Since being brought back here Griffith has never tried to conceal his belief that he Is of a su perior mould to his partners crime.

Frost Does Dam age to Fruit Trees in This Section Temperature Sinks Below Freezing Point, Beaching 29 Above Zero During the Night From Welno8iay' Daily. The- clearing- skies of Tuesday evening with the falling tempera ture brought with it a chilling cold over the eastern section of Nebras ka, leaving in its wake loss to the fruit crop that has not as yet been fully estimated. In this city and vicinity the frost was quite heavy and it is estimated that the earlv fruit has suffered a great deal from the effects of the frost, some fruit growers claiming practically a total loss while others report only a partial loss. The early fruit is only affected and the late fruit which had not advanced is thought to be safe. In the fruit that suffered the worst are cherries, peaches and the early plums and apples which had been in bloom and the fruit reached the stage where the frost found a ready mark. The hardy garden vegetables that were out are not greatly affected by the frost. At this city the temperature show ed 29 above zero during the very early hours of 'he morning and ris ing to 34 above at 8 o'clock. The western part of the state which had suffered from the cold wave on Monday was reporting warmer conditions and rain threats last night and today and the warmer weather was spreading east to the Missouri vallcv section of the state.

SHERIFF'S SALE 4. 4- Cass County Farm Bureau Notes Copy furnished from Office of County Agent Wainscott i i i Feeder Day Experimental Results. Results of the second year's work in determining the best way to con vert the corn plant into beef were announced at the nineteenth annual Livestock Feeders Day, Friday, April 17, at the College of Agricul ture. Twice as much beef can be pro duced on an acre of corn when it is harvested and fed as silage or ground fodder than when the ears are husk ed out and fed as corn, 1930 experi mental feeding tests at the Nebras ka station show. Silage produced 20 per cent more beef than ground fodder per acre, the same tests bring out. Silage from an acre when supplemented with al falfa hay produced 521 pounds of grain on the calves used in the Ne braska experiment. When supple mented with a pound of cottonseed cake per head per day the acre of corn silage made 565 pounds of gain. In comparison, ground fodder and alfalfa had made 420 pounds of beef and ground fodder and Cottonseed cake made 4 60 pounds of beef on a per acre basis. Lot 1 of the experiment was Cull fed shelled corn and alfalfa hay. An acre of 1930 corn husked and fed as shelled corn produced only 25 5 pounds of gain as compared with the 420 and 521 pounds of gain in the lots getting fodder and silag.' plus alfalfa hay. A copy of the experiments in de tail can be had by writing the Farm Bureau office. State of Nebraska, County of Cass. ss. By virtue of an Order of Sale Is sued by C.

Farm women represented in a study made by Dr. Ruth Clark of the Nebraska experiment station, were responsible for an average ad dition to the family farm income from poultry and dairy products cf $220.58. This income was either in money, in products used, or increas ed inventory values. The study was made from April 1, 1929 to March 30, 1930 when prices were considerably higher than they are at tne present tune, i lie pur pose of the study, Dr. Clark points out. was to show approximately the number of hours the farm woman uses for her chickens and in the care of milk and dairy products and also how much she received per hour for her labor. Thirty-seven of the records show either a loss on poultry or an in come of less than 30 cents per hour for all the time expended by the farm women. These figures were obtained when eggs sold for 22 to 41 cents per dozen, which is considerably higher than they are at the present time. Twenty-nine per cent of the group made less than 30 cents per hour with their farm dairy work. Butterfat and butter prices were considerably higher at the time the study was made than they are at the present time. Cream and butterfat prices varied from 29 to 46 cents per pound. On the average the women did about five-sevenths of the work with chickens and 35 per cent of the work with the milk, cream separator, and butterfat or butter.

Nehawka; Otto Schafer. Nehawka: Lee Faris, Union, and Eugene Day, Weeping Water. One third of the 100 bushel per acre corn growers in the state liv ing in Cass county is evidence that this county can grow as large a yield as any of them. However, past ach ievements mean very little in this day and age so let's keep on produc ing these big yields and enter the 1931 Corn Yield contest. The field must contain at least ten acre or it may be a part of a larger field. The contestant must furnish a labor rec ord on the ten acres or all of the field.
