V
Grain Weevils in Wheat.
Several reports of serious damage
and inquiries as to methods of con
trol of the weevil in wheat bins,
have come to the farm bureau office
in the past few days. This stored-
grain pest causes serious damage and
can be controlled easily by the use of
carbon disulphid. It is heavier than
air and penetrates down through the
grain, killing the insects without in
jury to the grain.
It has one great disadvantage, in
thai it is inflammable and will ex
plode if tire in any form is brought
near it. One good method of using it
is to take a gas pipe with a screen
over the end, work it down into the
grain and pour the carbon disulphide
into the pipe. This should be done
in several places in the cribs. The
person handling the fluid should be
very careful not to breathe too much
of the gas. A good precaution is to
have some one near by in case they
are needed.

Hessian Fly Date.
Some farmers are already making
preparations to put in their wheat
early this fall. The results of the
Hessian Fly station and campaign
last year was almost 100. Why
spoil all the good work by seeding
early this year? Those thinking of
seeding soon need only to compare
the results of waiting for the fly
free date last year and the early
seeding the year before when many
fields in the county were cut in half
by fly damage.
The approximate safe seeding date
in this county is about October 1st
and everyone should observe this
date and see that his neighbor does
also, as his early seeding will af
fect your fields. Volunteer wheat
Bhould be kept down so that it v. ill
not be a place for the fly to lay its
ggt later on.

Treat Wheat foi Smut.
Eastern Nebraska produces more
smutty wheat than any other part
;t the I'nited States, according to the
lederal grain inspectors. Cass county
is uo exception and this is easily
crntr.dled by treating the seed with
formaldehyde or copper carbonat".
The latter will probably g;v the
bfeSt results if pioperly done. Two

The formaldehyde treatment is 1
pint of formaldehyde with 40 gal

sprinkled over 40 bushels of grain

with a blanket.

fication project work this fall. The
first project leader's training meet
ing will be held the latter part of
September.

i work on pictures for the home. Pro

A Daily Dozen for Eggs.
With eggs so plentiful and reason
able the following suggestions may
prove helpful. these were taken
from the monthly poultry report
from the Agricultural College:
I. Cold water Is best for cleaning
soiled egg dishes and is also a fine
egg stain remover.
. White of egg will remove chew
ing gum from anything, including
hair, without leaving a trace.
3. A teaspoon of water added to
egg whites hastens the beating pro
cess and increases the amount.
4. Stiffly beaten egg whites add
ed to whipped cream, doubles the
quantity and improves the flavor.
5. Dishes from eggs and milk
take the place of meat in the menu,
giving a new slant to the every day
meals.
6. If you do not have an egg
slicer, dip your knife into water be
fore cutting hard boiled eggs, and
the yolks will not crumble.
7. Egg custards ready for the
oven, still uncooked, are relished by
children more than baked custards,
and are fully as wholesome.
8. When beating eggs separately,
beat the whites first and arid a little
to the yolks. They will thicken more
quickly and not stick to the beater
as much as when beaten alone.
9. When egg yolks not needed in
the same recipe with the whites,
beat them and add a little cold wa
ter. Place in the refrigerator until
seme use is found for them.
10. If it is necessary to boil fresh
ly laid eggs, allow them to lie in
cold water for 10 minutes before
placing in the water for boiling.
They will then peel easily.
II. To clean leather chairs, wipe
all dust and dirt from the leather
surface, and rub with a cloth satur
ated with well beaten egg white. Af
ter it is dry, polish with soft cloths
and the leather will look like new.
12. Well whipped egg whites fur
nish a substitute for v.-reum in salad
dressings and gives a fluffy quality
desirable for fruit salad or the in
dividual vegetable one. Beat with a
few spoonsful of strong mayonnaise.

threat of the rain, buv the larger
number of the Stars and their fam
ilies were not ready to attend ami es
caped the inconvenience of the rain.
The hall and banquet room of the

Structure With 25 Coaches and
2 Private Cars Burned
At an early hour this morning the

The Aurora shop was the only
shop on the system devoted to the

the local shops and the Aurora shop
but was later consolidated at the Illi

that the machine shop and other de
partments of the plant were not de
stroyed but the coach department
was a total loss, rso cause of the tire
was given.
Just what plans will be made for
the handling of the passenger car

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
PLEAS NOT GUILTY
From Wednesday's Dally
Reports received here from Blair
are to the effect that Herbert Swan
son. Ralph Jacks and Morris Lloyd,
former Plattsmouth young men. who
were taken in custody by Washing
ton county authorities in connection
with the finding of a still, have been
bound over to the district court for
trial. The three men have entered
a plea of not guilty and so far have
not supplied the bond necessary to
secure their release.
The case is the outgrowth of the
discovery last week of a still on a
farm in Washington county by the
officers while they were searching
for chicken thieves. It is claimed
that Jacks and Lloyd were at the
farm where the still was located and
the ownership of the still was al
leged to be in Herbert Swanson of
Omaha, and the two other men were
in his employe to operate the still.
TO LOCATE AT LINCOLN
Miss Helen Wescott departed Mon
day afternoon for Lincoln where she
will take up her duties as secretary
to Rev. Dr. Murdoch, pastor of the
Trinity M. E. church of that city.
Miss Wescott was engaged last
year in a similar position with the
pastor of one of the large Presby
terian churches at Des Moines and
where her work was outstanding and
won her a great deal of praise for
the efficient manner in which it was
conducted. The change to the Lin
coln position is most pleasant to Miss
Wescott as it brings her much nearer
home and also gives her the oppor
tunity of being with the many school
friends at Lincoln, she being an
adumni of Weslevan university.

believt me not. But if I do, thoueh
e believe not me, believe the works:
that ye may know, and believe, that
the Father is in me. and I in him."
(John 10:37.38). One selection read
from "Science and Health with Key
to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker
Eddy (p. 332 i . is as follows: "Christ
is the true idea voicing good, the
divine message from God to men
speaking of the human consciousness.
The Christ is incorporeal, spiritual,
yea, the divine image and like
ness, dispelling the illusions of the
senses: the Way, the Truth, and the
Life, healing the sick and casting
out evils, destroying sin, disease, and
death."
