Bachelor Banquets
By JOSEFHTKE GIBSOM
Director, Heinz Food Institute
ATANY WOJIEX hesitate to tcke even a short vacation in the sum
mer time if it means leaving their helpless men folk at home to
forage for their own food. They fear these summer bachelors of theirs
might run amuck in the recipe file, grow thin and hungry from neglect,
or let a pyramid of dishes collect in the kitchen sink. But re'ally, such
fears are groundless. Almcst every man has some hidden culinary
talent lurking under the surface of his masculine indifference. They
all have their pet theories on seasonings and such, and this is the ideal
time to try them out. V.'ith a little kindly guidance, and a few tactfully
made suggestions, they may even fare so well cs to call in their fellow
bachelors for a brotherhood feast. Just post these mannish menus and
recipes on the kitchen bulletin board, and leave without further worry.
Your vacation will be a bachclcr's holiday.

Late Summer
Best Time for
Lawn Repairs
Scratch. Surface and Cover with Light
Dressing of Soil When Kepair
ing the Bare Spots.
The time is approaching when
work on lawns and the seeding of
mnv lawns can be done under more
fuvoiable conditions than at any sea
son. Fine lawn grasses all tend to
stop growth in midsummer and their
energy revives as fal lapproaches.
This is believed to be governed by
th- length of the daylight.
From late August to the first of
October,, the earlier the better, is the
most favorable time for the germina
tion of lawn grass seed and the es
tablishment cf seedling plants. The
growth urge is at its maximum, the
weather is cooler, with more plenti
weather is cooler, with more plenti
ful moisture, and with shortening
days there is an apparent effort on
the party of the plants to achieve
maximum strength in preparation for
the winter.
The earlier seed is sown, the long
er seedling plants have to grow in
this favorable period before the
ground freezes. After October 1 there
is considerableh azard due to the pos
sibility that freezing will come when
the seedling plants are too young to

layed so long unles it is impossible
to sow earlier.
Seed sown on established lawn for
repair purposes at this season re
quires more careful treatment than
in the early spring. There must be
assurance that the seed is covered
with earth, since otherwise it is like
ly to wash off the bare spots. Loosen
the soil in the bare places, sprinkle
on the seed and rake it in, or if seed

Wahoo, Neb., Aug. 8. (Special)
Sam Stuart of Fort 'Worth, Texas,
the only rival of the bullfighting Sid
ney Franklin in the United States,
has been engaged to face a new herd
of Brahma bulls in liie arena here
during the second annual Wahoo
Buckaroo. This sport is purely bur
lesque in nature but a whale of a lot
of lun and will be the night feature
of the Saunders County Buckaroo
Fair, August 21 to 24, inclusive.
The' fast working cowboys will
make a quick change from the regu
lation rodeo arena of the afternoon
to a smaller one for the Lurlesque
feature and Mr. Stuart will be as
sisted by a bevy of agile clowns
among which are Cousin Kingfish
who fights from safety on a high wire
and Scrap Iron, who lights iron a
fire department barrel on the ground.
Charley Shultz, the children's clown
of Ponca City, Oklahom and Milt Mc
Kinley, the Girting cowboy who flirts
only with danger, will add action,
color and comedy to the Spanish set
ting. The requirements for this type of
sport are good health, eyesight and
co-ordination ol mind and muscle to
dodge gracefully these furious Brah

have gained prowress over their jun

The circus fans and circus minded
folks of this vicinity will have an op
portunity to enjoy the performances
of the Russell Bros, three-ring cirus
when it exhibits in Nebraska City.
Thursday, August 13th.
The circus is one form of amuse
ment that still retains its lure, and
most any circus is worth seeing, but
when the one in question is the Rus
sell Bros. Three Ring Circus, then
is broadcast generally over the lawnjour circus admirers may be assured
it should be accompanied by a light
top dressing. This should be prepared
of sifted soil, which may be mixed
with a complete plant food. It should
not exceed a quarter of an inches in
depth w hen spread over the lawn and
should be carefully raked and wash
ed off the grass leaves.
Throughout the cold-weather states
cf the United States, Kentucky blue
grass is considered very satisfactory.
It is sown usually in a mixture which
includes 'considerable red top and
some White clover and bent." Red top
is a fine lawn grass which germin
ates more quickly than blue grass
and becomes established easily, but it
is not so permanent. It is used as a
nurse crop to the blue grass, which,
while slower in germinating and tak
ing hold, will finally come to dom
inate in the permanent lawn. White
clover thickens the turf and enriches
the soil.
It is a good plan for gardeners to
have a ready supply of good grass
seed for the late summer and fall re
seeding; and where new lawns are
to be made, a supply of plant food
will also be needed.
'SAMARITAN' HAS BAD LUCK
Omaha. For a good Samaritan,
William Neihart of Omaha, has more
than his share of tough luck.
Neihart passed the scene of an au
tomobile accident Sunday and volun
teered to take the victims to a hos
pital. En route, his car collided with
one driven by William Watson, of
Omaha. There was no serious damage
and Neihart went on to the hospital
where Lester Fuller, Mrs. Fuller, Mr.
and Mrs. H. M. Rentschler, Omaha,
had their minor injuries attended.
Then Neihart, with Fuller and Du
gan, drivers of the cars in the first
accident, all went to police head
quarters where all were booked on
charges of reckless driving. Neihart
was also booked on charges of leav
ing the scene of an accident. While
the three were there Watson walked
in and was booked as a witness.
of a treat for this is one of the
very highest class and cleanest of
circuses.
This show is deserving of patron
age because it was one of the first of
the large shows to reduce its price
of admission and it did so without
in any way cutting down on its per
formance or menagerie display.
All that one pair ot eyes can see
and more too, will be presented in
the three rings and on the hippo
drome track. The Russell Circus is
one that boasts of 1 its display of
trained horses and fts unusual as
sembly of novel features, which are
to be seen exclusively with this show.
After all it is the remarkable sen
sational trapeze performance of Bob
Fisher's Five Fearless Flyers that is
the big sensation of the show.
POULTRY LCENSE ENACTED
Washington. A bill to put deal

the house and sent to the white
house.
Bringing the measure before the
house. Rep. Mitchell (d., Tenn.) said
it was designed to prevent "racket
eering" in central markets by charg
ing for services never given. He said
the bill, previously passed by the
senate, would cut the cost of a bird
to the New York conseumer from 15
to 2D cents and boost the price per
pound for the southern or western
producer by 2 1-2 to 3 cents.
UYNARD CHURCE xiOTEb
EIG WHEAT SHIPMENTS
Omaha. Officials of the North
western railroad here said 45 cars of
wheat, mostly from South Dakota,
v ere loaded at Gordon in the two
weeks period July 15 to 31. Approxi
mately 60,000 bushels of wheat were
loaded.
The figures are not exceptionally
heavy for a normal season, the rail
road officials reported. No figures are
available as yet for the month of
August, but the loadings, it was said,
have been heavy. Heavy loadings
have also been recorded at Merriman,
altho the number of cars filled is
Iees than at Gordon. Most of the
grtin loaded at Merriman and Gor
don is consigned to the Omaha market.
Improved crop conslticns and
higher prices for farm products
will stimulate business. Shrewd
advertisers recognize this and will
go after increased trade.
There will be a real treat for the
people of the Mynard community on
Sunday, August 11th.
The sextet of colored people will
sing a number of their spiritual songs
at the service at 11 o'clock.
There will also be with us in the
