Even though the Cass county corn any hay crops will be considerable short of normal this year, farmers can cut the corn for ensilage and get a greater financial benefit from the crop. A trench silo costs but very little and takes but a short time to con struct it. It can be constructed for less than $10.00 not including the farm labor. The corn can be cut for ensilage any time now and is good for wintering cattle. Tests made at the Agricultural College last win ter with wintering cattle? on ensilage with one pound of cottonseed cake daily made an average daily gain of two pounds. The gain made by cattle I fed shelled corn and alfalfa on full teed was but 2.3 4 pounds per day. About eight farmers in the county constructed trench silos last year and all of them reported excellent results. ! Those that had dariy herds reported that the cows produced more milk during the winter and came through In better flesh and appearance than they ever did before. A new circular on trench silos has just been published at the College of Agriculture and is now available at the Farm Bureau office. "Making the Most of the Meal Hour" Correct laying of the table, gen eral rules for meal service, table eti quette, and banquet service are all discussed in the new Extension Cir cular number 951 prepared by Miss Florence Atwood of the Agricultural College. The circular contains illus trations on the individual covers for dinner and luncheon, and the table service for an informal dinner. Miss Atwood lists thirteen sugges tions for meal service, including the location of the table in the room; seating arrangement of host and hostess and guests; silence cloth; placing of chairs; serving of plates at table; removing dishes; and a few other suggestions on service . Since table etiquette is so closely related to table service, a number of rules are given for this. Use of the napkin, correct position for holding the knife and fork and use of the spoon, are a few of the things dis cussed under this part of the meal. This circular is available at the Farm Bureau office. D. D. Wain scott, Cass County Extension Agent; Jessie H. Baldwin, Ass't County Ex tension Agent.

B0WEN TO PENITENTIARY From Tuesday's Dally Sheriff Bert Reed jvho was notified Monday that William Bowen. pris oner, who was at the University hos pital at Omaha, undergoing treat ment, must be removed, has found a possible solution of the problem of caring for this very troublesome prisoner. The facilities at the local jail are not well suited to care for a prisoner who is in the physical condition of Bowen, making it neces sary for the sheriff to devise some way of handling the prisoner. Sher iff Reed is endeavoring to have Bowen placed in the state penitentiary hos pital at Lincoln where he can be cared for and also be kept under guard. The prisoner has grown very troublesome in the last week and making it impossible for his being cared for in that institution as he has a serious effect on th other patients. It was necessary last night to have a special guard supplied to look after Bowen at the hospital and his transfer to the penitentiary hos pital will be made as rapidly as pos sible. HAVE A GOOD GAME Manager Alfred Gansemer of the Murray Red Sox has secured one of the fast teams in the east portion of Nebraska for the attraction at the Murray park for next Sunday.

The Yutan team in winning the championship have lost but two games in the season while the Sox have lost but two out of nineteen games played. This should be a game that all of the baseball fans will en joy to the limit. Bates Book and Gift Shop is ex clusive Dennison decorative snpplie dealer in this, vicinity. i i 18C 1 I 1 1!!!!!!!
