RAWLS Candidate for County Attorney On Republican Ticket With thirty-five years active practice in all State and Federal Courts, I feel qualified and able to represent the County and State in any civil or criminal proceed ings that may arise. Election Tuesday, November 3rd. The Support of the Voters will be Appreciated J Cass County Farm $ Bureau Notes Copy furnished from Office of County Agent Wainscott News of the 4-H Clubs. The first application for a 4-II club for the winter and spring of 193C-37 has been received from Miss Berdena Rosenow of Louisville. Miss Rosenow has organized a Keep-Well club with the 20 pupils of Dutch Academy school as members. In con nection with their Keep-Well club they are studying good health habits, with particular emphasis on posture. Good food habits, care of the teeth, red blood and fresh air, the care of the body windows feet and shoes, are other subjects which they will study. They enjoy doing the health exercises and are careful to observe good posture rules a3 they attend classes, sit at their desks or walk about. Frances Rehmeier of Weeping Wa ter has submitted the record of her 4-H activities since she first enrolled in a 4-H club in 1929, to be con sidered in the awarding of the Pres ident's Trophy, an award made an nually to the 4-11 club boy and girl in the United States who have the most outstanding record of achieve-1 ments in 4-H. With the fine 4-II re cord which she has, Frances should go far in this contest. Mary Fager, Ruth Schwartz, Clco Bergman, George Oberle, and War ren Rikli, outstanding county mem bers in Home Economics, cooking, j baby beef, swine, and dairy projects, submitted their achievement records to the state 4-II club committee last week for consideration in the award ing of Chicago trips to state winners. We are hoping that some of them may be fortunate enough to win one of these trips and help represent Ne braska at the National 4-H Club Con gress the first week in December. Checks representing premiums won at county and state fair by Cass coun ty 4-H club members, were mailed out last week to the club leaders, with the exception of those clubs whose final reports have not been turned in. Clubs whose final reports and leader'3 summaries have not been received will not be mailed their checks until the reports are filed in the county office. Many of the checks are for large amounts, but large or small, we know that the club mem bers will be delighted to receive them. Oscar Brandt, Robert Pollard and Merritt Pollard are busy these days doing practice judging in preparation for the national livestock Judging contest in Chicago the first week in December, where they will be Ne braska's representatives. They enjoy ed a good workout at the College of Agriculture Saturday. 8 1 Our temptingly light rolls give that happy S zest to meals that make the home-maker's Si easier. Serve them often.

Advertising) (Political Advertising) Agricultural Conservation. Recommendations which Cass coun ty farmers wish embodied in the 1937 Agriculture Conservation program were summarized this week and will be presented in a district conference next wek, according to C. D. Ful mer, chairman of the county commit tee. The recommendations were those made by farmers at community meet ings held recently in all parts of the county. Following is a summary of the county report: 1. Summer fallow to start by May first continue through the summer and be seeded to a grass or legume by September fifteenth without a nurse crop. The practice to be done only on the more level land. Large payment to be made for the control of bindweed. 2. When a small grain is seeded with a grass or legume this will re ceive the small payment only. No reL-trictions on the use of the nurse crop. No green manure practice. 3. Small payment will be made on temporary pastures such as sudan, oats, wheat, rye, rape, when they are used for pasture. 4. Large payment will be made on seeding new permanent pasture. In either case this land is not to be pas tured until September first. The date was set in order to protect the new seedings from overgrazing through the summer. 5. That to 1927 fare be the meas ured crop acres of 193 6 on every farm. That the conserving land start at zero and make a payment on a sliding scale running from zero to thirty percent increasing the payment as the scale goes up. After reaching the thirty percent the payment to be smaller thereafter which would serve as a maintenance payment to those farmers who have more than the thirty percent in conserving crops. Sargo Makes Large Yield. Oscar Domingo of Weeping Water has just finished cutting his field of twenty acres of Atlas Sargo. He says it made over 20-2 Jons. Corn in the same community did well to make three ton per acre. This is certainly evidence that Atlas is one crop that defies the drouth and will insure farms a feed supply. Every Cass county farmer that has a silo could insure himself a feed supply by planting a field of Atlas. Seed Cora Situation. The results of an incomplete seed corn survey being made in the east ern part of the county shows that there is better than five thousand bushel of 193G seed corn available. If more fa'rmers that have a surplus of seed corn will return the ques tionnaire, a source of supply list can be made available to the buyers.

I Work Starts on Eoad. The WPA project which has been under discussion for some time has finally gotten under way and the road east from Nehawka is being put in condition for the spreading of the stone ballast or hard surfacing which is to be placed. The road which was expected to run east to the north and south road which leads on to Union has been changed at the last and will run east to cross the creek east of James Chappels when it will be- turned north to the corner near the Opp place where the old house stands, thence east to the north and south road. When the roadway has been put in condition the stone sur facing will be applied. The county crusher has been brought here for the work of crushing the stone. Henry Feltes Dies. Henry Feltes, CI years of age and having resided in Nehawka for many years, a painter by trade, has during the past few years been in very poor health and feeble, not able to work, was receiving a blind pension of $15 on which he was living. However he had very poor eyesight and so he got along on as small amount as possible so as to get a pair of glasses which would enable him to read. He went to the University hospital at Omaha where he was able to secure the glasses but this left him but little to live on. He would go to the Mis souri Pacific waiting room during the cooler nights and spend the nights there, coming to the stores' early in the morning to get warm. He was very bad and it was thought to take him to an hospital and the intention was to take him last Saturday, but he died Friday and the body was taken to Plattsmouth by tho Streight funeral home where he was buried in Oak Hill cemetery west of the city. He had a sister and a number of bro thers, but the people here could not get in touch with any of the relatives. Another old resident is thus removed. Olie Has a Problem. To properly care for the trade which conies to his filling station, O. Lumbers has paved t:ie street in front of his place of business so that he can serve his clients, and it has been the practice of many people to park directly in front of his gas pump. Mr. Lunberg has repatedly asked the people not to park in front of the gas pumps but they persist in doing so. So on Monday of this week he pained a sign there "No (Political Advertising) Mr., Mrs. and Miss VTEil You are reminded that in marking your ballots on November third, that one of the state offices can be filled by a man who is a specialist in the work of this position.

You are thereby assured of a public offical who not only can serve you well, but pledges his best efforts to the State of Nebraska which means fair, unbiased and impartial consideration to all.

Mr. Rankin in his opening paid high compliment to Congressman Luckey for his work in congress, Gov ernor R. L. Cochran for his fine state administration, a n d to Senator George W. Norris, who was titled by the speaker, "the greatest friend that the common people of the United States had in congress." Mr. Rankin took up the political situation of the nation in 1921 when the administration of Harding came to office with unrestricted power, the building up of the tariff policy and the financial manipulation of the country by Andrew Mellon and Ogden Mills that had eventually led to the disaster that came later. The policy pursued in 1926 cut the circulating volume of the money of the nation from a per capita of $34 to a pre-war per capita of $14 and which had broke the farmer, the small business man and stated the march to disaster that culminated in the dire days of the Hoover regime. The speaker told his audience that he had heard the testimony that many of the large banking and financial heads had not paid income lax for fe.eral years. The congress and president had closed that loci hole am', the next year they would have to pay their just proportion of the tax. The ranks of the Liberty League w;re recruited from those who had been touched on the tax evasions and also hit by the plans to tax undistributed profits. The election, Mr. Rankin pointed out, was the most important since the civil war for the common people against the great vested interests, who now hate the president. The speaker told of the steps that the administration had taken to re move the control of the gold of the nation from private hands and to in crease the per capita of money by the devaluation of the gold dollar, which had worked successfully and checked the former control of the great finan cial interests over the money of the country. It was to prevent the at tempt to break down the financial policies of the nation that congress had voted the president the tempor ary right to issue $6,000,000 in additional currency if necessary while congress was not in session. Mr. Rankin took up the story of the tragedy of the Hoover adminis tration and stressed the fact that those now battling for the republican national ticket were the same that had ruled the nation in the days of 1929-1933, who were again striving to gain power. The speaker urged that President Roosevelt be sustained and that Sen ator Norris and Congressman Luckey also 1? returned to aid in the work of completing the Roosevelt program. Mr. Rankin in his plea for the re turn of Senator Norris to the senate, gave a very thorough review of the TVA hydro-electric power proposi tion, citing price of current from this as well as other power projects. Mr. Rankin is one of the able speakers of congress and his rapier like thrusts at the former administra tions and the foes of Roosevelt en livened the address as did the many stories that were given during the address. CLUB LADIES ENTERTAINED An interesting meeting of the Merry Workers club, was held at the home of Mrs. A. W. Leonard, Tues day, Oct. 13. The majority of the members were present to enjoy the covered dish luncheon served at noon. After this Mrs. A. W. Leonard, president, as sisted by Mrs. George Topi iff, social leader and Mrs. C. D. Geary, secre tary, gave the lesson on "The Im portant Job of Homemaking." Truly If every woman of our day took these given helps to heart we'd have many more happy homes and people in our land. "Yes, that is true and something more; You'll find wherever you roam, That marble floors and gilded walls jCan never make a home. "But every home where low abides And Friendship is a guest Is surely home, and home sweet home, For there the heart can rest." The next meeting will be held Nov. 17 at the home oT Mrs. R. G. Riser. Everyone who cares to come is wel come and we are to learn some helps to beautify this home. Covered dish luncheon is served at the noon hour. You are invited. CLl'll REPORTER.

It i3 the story of one of the greatest romances In his story. Sunday is Rally Day. We are work ing for 200 in Sunday school. Last Sunday the attendance reached 161 in Sunday school and 141 in church. The Epworth League atteandance was 3 4. The candle lighting service was fine and ten new members were ad mitted into membership. The Ladies Aid society has 100 members. The officers are: Mrs. II. Penterman, president; Mrs. G. R. Eveland, vice president; Mrs. G. G. Douglas, secretary; Mrs. Harry Lin der, treasurer. The society met for the first business meeting of the year and voted to pay the first hundred dollars they make on the note.

As our crowds increase we need these books very much. They must bo in the homes. If so, please bring them back to the church next Sunday. We wera glad to notice the visi tors in church last Sunday. A father, mother and daughter paused at the door and said, "We enjoyed the ser vice very much." They were asked if they were visiting someone in Elm v ood and they said, "No, we are traveling, but we always stop for church." We saw some folks go home from church, get their lunch basket, get into their family car and off they went for a good time. I am sure they had a good time because they had put the church services first, in the day's program. The Jr. Queen Esther Society is to meet Saturday, Oct. 24, at the home of Mrs. Herbert Olson.
