hard work at the filling station. We
noticed him hard at work this week
when we were in town and asked him
about his vacation. Ralph said
"Not until after the fair and the
rush of business is over. But when
the time comes and the fair is over
and it is a little cooler, the wife and
I, we always go together, will take
our vacation. We have taken a num
ber, have seen the Atlantic ocean,
the Pacific ocean, the north and the
south and there is only nine states
we have not visited. When we go
this fall we will start southeast and
will see and travel through five of
the remaining nine."

t
Wins County Canning Contest.
Mrs. Delbert Lindsay of Union
won the county Kerr canning con
test, exhibits for which were brought
to the Farm Bureau office last week.
The eliminations were made Satur
day. Mrs. Dan Anderson of Nehawka
placed second in The contest.
The exhibits each consisted of
three uniform quart glass jars, one
of fruit, one of non-acid vegetable,
and one of meat.
Mrs. Lindsay's exhibit will now be
entered in the state contest to be
held during State Fair. The Kerr
Manufacturing company, sponsors of
the county, state and national con
tests, offer attractive prizes to the
winners.
4-H Baby Beeves and Hogs
To Go to State Fair.
Many entries have been received
from Cass county club members for
State Fair. 30 head of baby beeves
and 12 head of hogs will represent
the county this year at State Fair.
Fifteen of the thirty baby beeves
are Galloways. Some of these boys
have been feeding Galloways for a
number of years and they say that
considering the quality of feed and
the hot weather these cattle are up
to par with other years. Along with
these fifteen Galloways, there have
been eleven Hereford steers, two
Hereford and one Shorthorn short fed
heifers, and one Angus steer entered.
The twelve pigs that are entered
are Chester Whites. JFrances and
Vincent Rehmeier of Weeping Water
and George Oberle of Eagle are the
club members making these entries.
The pigs will be shown as individuals
and also in the sow and litter class.
September 30th for Seed
ing Conserving Crops.
The drouth and grasshopper situ
ation in the state has brought out a
change in the fall seeding regulation.
The date for seeding on summer fal
low and on fields where green manure
crops were plowed under before July
1st, has been changed from Sept
1st to September SOth. Officials of
the Northcentral Region state that
they do not wish to require farmers
to seed where it is impractical due
to unfavorable conditions as the seed
in all probability would be wasted
Farmers are urged to wait until
seeding conditions are favorable.
4-H Baby Beef Club
Picnic and Tour.
The Blue Ribbon Baby Beef 4-H
club, with James Schafer as leader,
held their annual picnic ht Paul
Wolph's home last Sunday afternoon.
All of the parents were invited and
the mothers brought well filled bas
kets for a picnic dinner. This dinner
did not show any signs of a drought
year as fried chicken and all other
foods that go to make up a picnic
dinner, including home made ice
cream, were there in great abund
ance.
After the dinner a kittenball game
was played, then the entire group
made a tour, stopping at all the
members' homes and inspecting the
calves. This gave the club members
a good opportunity to see how the
other 4-H clubbers feed and manage
their project and this may help them
Make the Best Better."
Emergency Eations for
Milk Cows, Poultry.
Two new circulars,
designed to
his feeding
help the farmer with
problems, have just been made avail
able through the Extension Service.
They are Circular C02, "Emergency
Ration for Milk Cows," and Circular
1415, "Nebraska Emergency Mash
Formula,"
The feed situation is such that
alfalfa hay will be high in price and
in some cases not available, and corn
will be costly. This changes ma
terially the ordinary farm feeding of
milk cows and the feeding plans sug
gested in the circular are not ideal,
but are planned to meet the present
drouth emergency. Wheat straw,
which has little feeding value for
milk production, when used must be
balanced by various grains and other
concentrates. Corn silage, while not
of the best quality, will be the chief
source of roughage and other feeds
should be added to the ration to bal
ance it.
These circulars are available upon
request at the Farm Bureau office.
Look to Fall and Winter.
This fall and winter sees a bigger
change in dress and coat silhouettes
than we've had for many a season.
This year's dress silhouette is criso.
full-shouldered, flared. It is pleas-
ingly different from the draped front
fullness and the smooth shoulders of
last year's frocks.
The tunic is one oi iLe most popu
lar of the new dresses. It has swirl
and excitement in its lines. Then,
there are gay and dashing boleros,
side draped and apron frocks, the
high waisted "Princess" line, peplums
and basques, all of which are dis
tinctly a part of this year's fashions.
This year's coat styles tend toward
the high, slimJwajLsted, fuli-ishoul-dered
flared skirt line called "Prin
cess." It is a result of the Empire
influence in style. The slightly long
er - than - fingertip - length overcoat
that came out of Hollywood is very
popular. The belted, flared skirt
pirate coat, boxy swaggers, and flared-
back' .front-belted models are all im
portant
Fur trims are more luxur-
ious.
In hats, we find lots of variety.
Generally, however, brighter colors
and much more trimming are in evi
dence. All sorts of feather and pasted
bird trims are new. Veils add con
siderable dash to some of the new
fall felts. Among the plainer, more
tailored hats, the high Postillion
crown is popular. It certainly looks
new. In fact, it seems a natural evo
lution from the Homburg in that it
has the same clear cut tailored lines,
and oftentimes a dashing quill stuck
through at a youthful angle. The
main difference is the new height
ened crown. The off-the-face mode
is still tremendously popular. Inter
esting variations and adaptations of
this off-the-face line are showing up
for the new season. One of the many
favorites is a bonnet style . . . brim
med and set back to show the fair
line. They have charm. The Breton
sailors and little turbans will rank
high in popularity. Brimmed hats
with varied handling of the crowns
and a new downward dip to the brim
in back look refreshingly new.
Look to Your Diet.
The widespread drought of 1936
has caused many farm families to
face for the first time, the problem
of purchasing for the least possible
money a food supply that will main
tain health, courage and working
power. To do this without the home
produced food of an average year
and at the same time plan meals that
insure palatability and a reasonable
variety is no easy task. The size,
ages and activities of various mem
bers of the family must be taken into
consideration. .
The Bureau of Home Economics
submits the following minimum-cost
adequate diet, which has been tried
and found sufficient to maintain
nutritional health over an indefinite
period of time.
Milk, to drink or in cooked food:
1 quart daily, for each young child;
of a quart daily, for each child
over four; 1 pint for each adult.
Vegetables and fruits: From 3 to
4 servings per person daily. (The
protective value of this group will
be increased if fruits and also cab
a
uage, spinacn, carrots, and some
other vegetables are frequently eaten
raw) ; 8 to 9 servings a week of pota
toes and sweet potatoes (once a fay.
sometimes twice); 2 to 3 servings a
week of dried beans, peas, or pea
nuts; 2 to 3 servings a week of toma
toes (or of citrus fruits in season)
for each adult and child over four;
tablespoons of tomato juice or 2
tablespoons of orange juice daily for
each child under four; 5 to 6 servings
week of leafy, green, or yellow
vegetables. 1 serving daily of fruit
or an additional vegetable (includ
ing some leafy, green, or yellow
kinds).
Eggs: 2 to 3 a week for adults;
to 5 for young children; a few in
cooking.
Meat and fish: 3 to 4 times a
week (more frequently if the meat
dish is often a meat and cereal com
bination, so that the weekly meat al
lowance is not exceeded).
A cereal dish once a day, some
times twice.
Bread at every meal; butter at
some meals.
Dessert about once a day if de
sired such as cereal pudding.
cookies, simple cake, shortcake, and ;
inexpensive pastries and fruits.
To meet all nutritional needs as
cheaply as possible, this diet has a
lage quantity of cereal products and
milk as its basis. Just enough of
vegetables, fruits, eggs, and lean
meats are used to supply vitamins,
minerals, and protein not adequately
furnished by bread and milk, and
enough of fats and sweets are in
cluded to round out the calories. The
choice among the different kinds of
food is considerably limited by cost,
and careful selection among the most

Wheat Smut Control.
Smut causes an enormous loss to
Nebraska farmers even though there
is a practical, cheap and effective
treatment available for its control.
As wheat seeding time approaches
we should know that there are two
kinds of smut which attack wheat
the covered, also known as the bunt
or stinking smut, and the loose smut
The covered or stinking smut is
the most serious smut in Nebraska
It not only reduces yields but affects
the quality and grade of the crop
The covered smut is carried in smut
balls or as spores on wheat kernels
Therefore the treatment of seed
is
necessary for its control. The two
treatments commonly used are for
maldehyde, and the copper carbon
ate treatments. The latter is usually
used because it does not affect the
germination by causing the seed to
swell. The treatment consists of
tnorougnly dusting 2 to 3 ounces
of copper carbonate over each bushel
of wheat. This is about one fruit
jar level full.
The effectiveness of this treatment
depends upon the thoroughness of
dusting the seed. A home made mixer
can be used successfully. These mix
ers are made out of a 30 to 50 gallon
steel barrel mounted diagonally on a
shaft. The barrel has a tight lid on
one end. When treating seed i
should be done out of doors in a well
ventilated place. The treated seed
is regarded as poisonous and should
not be fed or sold to mills or ele
vators.
For the formaldehyde treatment
one pint of formaldehyde should be
mixed with 40 gallons of water and
this amount sprinkled over 40 bush
els of grain, which is then covered
for 5 to G hours with blankets, can
vas, or sacks. The grain should then
be seeded as soon as it is dry enough
to pass thru the drill satisfactorily.
The rate of seeding should be in
creased to take care of the swelling
of the grain.
Loose smut is not so important in
Nebraska and seed treatment does
not help much in control. The best
method is to get seed that is from a
smut free field.
