Wins Washington Trip.
Announcement was made Thurs
day of the four Nebraska representa
tives to the National 4-H Club Camp
at Washington D. C. in June. This
honor comes to one of our own Cass
County 4-H ers, James Wall of Eagle.
The other Nebraska representatives
are Helen Morgan, Lincoln; Ruth
Long, Cowles, and Billy Donahue, cf
Inland. All four were chosen because
of outstanding work as club members
and leaders.
James is the third Cass County
Club member to be awarded this trip.
Clarence Norris, Weeping Water, and
Henry Sexson, Eagle, preceded him in
winning this award.
James has packed 12 club projects
and the leadership of three more into
the last three years of his life. Soon
after he joined the first club in the
spring of 19 29, he became so enthus
ed about club projects that he joined
every kind of a club he could around
Eagle. He has been a member of
poultry, baby beef, potato, corn, rope
and sheep clubs. His outstanding
record however, is in his poultry club
in which he raised from 90 to 95
of his chicks each year. He now
has a laying flock of 223 hens which
is making him some money.
In 1930 James was cn the poul
try judging team which won first at
state fair, and he was the high in
dividual in the contest. In national
competition at Chicago he placed
third. In 1931 James was local lead
er of two poultry clubs, totaling 39
members. The judging team which
he coached won first at the state fair
and second in the national contest at
Chicago in December. One of the
members was the high individual
judge. The demonstration team from
his club, which he also coached, rep
resented Nebraska at the National
Dairy Exposition at St. Louis where
they placed fourth. The Practical
Poultry Producers Club, of which he
is leader, was declared the champion
state poultry club in 1931. Both
poultry clubs finished up 100. The
clubs have made a total of 471 ex
hibits and won 65 firsts, this past
year.

Prairie Queens Reorganize.
The Prairie Queen 4-H club of
Elr.iwood reorganized January 15th
for Eecond year canning work. The
fact that one of the second year re
quirements Is meat canning necessi
tates netting an early start so that
the girls may do their canning when
their parents butcher ' their summer
meat supply.
Grasshopper Situation in Cass Co.
Cass, and all other counties bor
dering the Missouri river, contain
enough grasshopper eggs to cause
possible trouble in 1932. The sur
vey of 629 fields in 91 counties in
the state was made by O. S. Bare,
Extension Entomologist of the Col
lege and F. D. Hatcher, Extension
Entomologist of the U. S. Dept. of
Agriculture.
This same report states that the
hoppers apparently distributed their
eggs more widely over the state last
fall than they did the fall before,
but that the eggs are not as intense
ly concentrated as they were in the
fall of 1930. Should weather condi
tions continue favorable through the
rest of the winter and during the
hatching season next spring, grass
hoppers are likely to be numerous
and farmers can expect some damage
to crops.
How serious this damage will be
come depends much upon weather
conditions and also upon the amount
of control work done by farmers. The
Cass County Farm Bureau is plan
ning to help farmers with control
measures recommended in the spring
by O. S. Bare, entomologist of the
agricultural college extension ser
vice. Newspapers will play a big part
in keeping people correctly inform
ed regarding the situation during the
next few weeks. Some meetings and
demonstrations will probably be held
just before control measures need to
be put into effect.
Week of Sewing Machine Clinics.
A series of six sewing machine
clinics are being held this week in
Cass County, under the supervision
of Paul R. Hoff, Engineering Spec
ialist from the College of Agriculture
The clinics were scheduled starting
Monday, at Elmwood, Murray, Ne-
o
eim
than 1,500 years ago, as you will find at
our store one of the most complete lines
ever displayed in Plattsmouth, at from-

South Bend, in the order named.
Eighteen or twenty women, who
have previously signed up for the
clinic, appear in old clothes, armed
with screw drivers, oil cans, pie tin,
and other minor equipment, ready for
the task of cleaning and adjusting
their sewing machines. Judging from
past experience, these machines will
be in good working order, with no
expense, when the women return
home with them.
Only three of the 121 women who
overhauled their machines at clinics
held last winter, had any expense
and this was for replacing of worn
parts. Mr. Hoff's experience over the
state shows that 90 per cent of the
machines can be put into a good
working order by thorough clean
ing and adjusting. Machines brot In
in the past ranged in age from one to
fifty years and the majority of them
were over 20 years old.
Proper Care of House Plants.
Fifty-five to 60 degrees is the
ideal temperature for most house
plants, and 65 degrees Is the maxi
mum allowed in the greenhouse by
the experienced plant grower. The
plants should be watered about twice
a week by placing the pot in water
and allowing the water to soak
through the pot until the soil is
wet, but not soggy. The tops of the
plants should be washed at least
once a week by holding them under
running water.
All house plants excepting possi
bly ferns and green foliage plants
need south or east windows and all
of the direct sunlight it is possible to
give them during the winter. A good
soil mixture contains one-half good
garden loam, one-fourth well rotted
manure or leaf mold, and one-fourth
sand. A little bone meal in the mix
ture will do no harm.
Arsenate of lead is one of the best
stomach poisons for insects that
chaw the leaves of house plants.
Blackleaf 40 or any other good nico
tine product will kill the Insects that
suck plant juices out of the leaves
and stems. D. D. Wainscott, Cans
