Open Season for 4-11 Clues.
The return of fair weather brings
renewed interest in 4-II clubs. Five
clubs have recently been organized,
and with those previously reported,
indicate an active enthusiasm for en
rolling for the year's work. Clubs
which filed thtir organization papers
since the last report are:
Snappy Cooks, Margaret Ilanney,
Weeping Water, loader.
Early Bird Poultry club, Oren Ray
mond Pollard. Xehawka, leader.

Master Feeders Baby Beef club,
Clyde Althouse, Eagle, leader. ,
Boys who do not have feed for
growing baby beeves should find in
terest in some other project. Sheep
need less grain than cattle or hogs.
Half or more of the sheep ration is

K you give them the care any live
stock deserve, they will thrive for
you.
Sw i.ne clubs are unexcelled for
practical all-round training. Judg
ing and exhibiting are popular in
swine clubs. Most any farm can j
carrv a sow or two or a few pigs
Why not make them 4-H hogs? J
Two Keep-Well clubs, which have!
been organized during the winter
months, have nearly completed their
lessons and are planning achievement
programs. A third Keep-Well club,
organized the latter part of January,
i busy with various club activities.
The Cass County Cartncrs club at
Xehawka report they are kept busy
with meat canning so as to meet these
requirements.
Girls interested in joining a 4-II
club are urged to enroll in one of
the major cycle projects which are:
Learning to Cook. Problems in Room
Improvement and Summer Clothes for
the 4-II Girl. Special emphasis will
be placed on the work in these clubs
at leader training meetings.
Any group of five boys or girls in
terested in organizing a club should
get in touch with the Farm Bureau
office for more information and sug
gestions for organizing.
Plan Spring and Summer Activities.
Seven group achievement programs
and one county-wide meeting for
women's project clubs were planned
at a meeting of the Home Economics
Council Friday, March 5th. Plans
for next year's work were discussed
and much interest was evident in
the reading work which is to be a
new feature of project club work.
The recreational school, women's
canning contests, mothers' vacation
camp, and suggestions for summer
study are some of the short time proj
ects being planned.
Eecreational School.
What shall we have for enter-j
tainmcnt, is an ever baffling question
especially when planning for a large
group.
Plans are under way for holding a
two-day recreational school within
the county April 1st and 2nd. The
program will include party sugges
tions, group games, paper and pencil
games, singing games, field day and
picnic activities, dramatics and hob
bies. Each community is entitled to
two delegates which might repre
sent several organizations such as
Farmers Union, church groups. P. T.
A., 4-H clubs, women's project or
study clubs and other organizations.
Delegates should be selected with the
idea in mind that they are to go back
t- the home community to assist the
various organizations in a recreation
al way.

Progress of the 1937
Conservation Program.
Precinct committees have just com
pleted their work of setting bases for
individual farms in the county. These
base figures will be mailed to oper
ators and landlords within the next
few days.
It is the present plan of the coun-
ty committee to hold community i
i
meetings beginning about the 17th
when farmers can come in and have
their individual plans gone over so
they can
understand how they
can j
comply with the
,

efforts of the Farm Bureaus of the
states of Iowa. Nebraska, Missouri,

The board of directors of the
Omaha exchange is composed of eight

Treat Seed for Smut,
There's one jon on the farm that
usually pays good dividends. That
is the treating of seed grains such as
sorghums, oats, barley and spring
wheat for smut control,
s h the susgcstioii made by
xii 1 lie tif-,,
the Cass County Farm Bureau. Treat
ment is cheap insurance against smut
and other diseases. The practice is
doubly important this year in view of
the great amounts of oats and bar
ley of unknown origin that will be
used for seed here in the county.
There are three materials that
can be used for seed grain treatment.
For wheat, copper carbonate is re
garded as the cheapest, easiest and
most commonly used material. It is
a dust containing about DO percent
copper. Treatment consists of cover
ing the kernel thoroughly with dust,
by means of a mixer of some type.
For oats, formaldehyde is probably
the most commonly used treatment.
It is cheap and if properly used is ef
fective in controlling smuts.
Formaldehyde may be used with
varying amount of water, the import
ant thing being that it is applied 'at
the rate of 1 pint of formaldehyde to
50 bushels of seed oats. Some use
the dry treatment of 1 pint of for
maldehyde and 1 pint of water; eth
ers use 1 pint for 40 gallons of water
and sprinkle.
New Improved Ceresan, a trade
name for ethyl mercury phosphate,
is a very effective and satisfactory
treatment for oats, wheat and bar
ley when applied properly and at the
correct rate. It irj to be especially
recommended for barley as it controls
some diseases not controlled by
formaldehyde.
Seed corn, however, should not be
treated for smut it is pointed out.
Smut in corn is not carried on the
corn kernel so treatment is of no
value. Smut in corn is due to held
infection. Treating seed corn in Ne
braska for other diseases under Ne
braska's soil and climatic conditions
has not proved to be worthwhile
and is not recommended by the Ne
braska Experiment Station.
