FARMERS URGED
TO SPREAD BAIT
NOW FOR HOPPERS
Spreading Poison Now Assures A
Maximum Kills With Least
Outlay For Bait.
^ The second carload of sawdust
T^ias been received in O’Neill and
§ mixing of poison bait for grass
p hopper control is continuing as fast
I as the farmers are spreading the
I bait.
The grasshopper infestation
| seems to be as heavy as was ex
pected at the beginning of the
season and with continued dry
weather, which is favorable to
grasshopper damage, the loss to
gardens and crops will be heavy.
Farmers should realize the value
of poisoning hoppers at their pre
■ sent stage, rather than waiting un
til damage is noticeable and poison
ing will be much less effective.
Bait spread properly now will be
Mf worth much more in reducing dam
’ age than it will be one month later.
Caution in handling and spread
ing properly to reduce damage both
to humans and livestock cannot be
emphasized too much. Sodium ar
senate is a very dangerous poison
and bait spread thicker than 20
pounds per acre is not only wasted
but dangerous to livestock. Two
light spreadings about 10 days
apart will give a much better kill
than one heavy application.
One or two spreadings around
fence rows and edges of fields will
do a lot of good toward checking
hoppers from moving into the fields
and doing more damage.

Miss Evelyn Mains Is
Married To Joseph A.
Schwarte On Saturday
St. Patrick’s church was the
scene early Saturday morning of
one of the most unique as well as
one of the most beautiful Catholic
weddings ever held in this parish,
when Evelyn Margaret Mains,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. S.
Mains, became the bride of Joseph
A. Schwarte, son of Mr. and Mrs.
William Schwarte of Westphalia,
Iowa.
At the Solemn Nuptial High
Mass, Rev. Michael Schwarte a
newly ordained priest and brother
of the groom officiated. He was
assisted by his uncles, Rev. M. A.
Schiltz, S. J., of Holy Rosary Mis
sion as deacon, and Rev. Michael
Schiltz of Panama, la., as sub
deacon.
St. Mary’s academy Mixed Choir

Heart,” a four part arrangement
by Marsh. Ceaser Franck’s “Panis
Angelicus” was sung by Mary
Catherine Coyne at the Offertory.
The choir was accompanied and
directed by Sister M. Constance,
aunt of the bride.
The bride, who was given in
marriage by her father, wore a
strikingly simple rose lace dress
with white accessories. Her cor
sage was of gardenias. Miss Jane
Mains, a sister, was her attendant.
Her dress was ot blue lace witn
matching accessories. She also
wore a corsage of gardenias.
Herman Schwarte, a brother of
the groom was best man.
White and red peonies were used
to decorate the church.
Immediately following the cere
mony a wedding breakfast for
members of the families was served
at the Golden hotel. The couple
left soon after on a motor trip to
the west.
Mrs. Schwarte is well known in
this city, and a graduate of St.
Mary’s academy with the class of
’33. Her friends here extend best
wishes for a long and happy wed
ded life.

Plans Annual Visit Here
This office is in receipt of a letter
from its old friend Robert Vier
boom, of Highland Falls, N. Y., in!
which he enclosed the necessary
mazuma to insure the weekly visits
of The Frontier to his home for
another year. Robert has been
a Frontier reader for many years.
He was a resident of this county
some forty-five years ago but he
still looks upon old Holt as his
home. For the past seven or eight
years he has spent a couple of
weeks visiting with old time
friends in the northeastern part
of the county and says that he
thoroughly enjoys these outings
and looks eagerly forward to them
each year.
Bob hands the following tribute
to The Frontier: “I receive The
Frontier every Monday and believe
it or not, my kids look forward
for the arrival of The Frontier with
as much interest as I do. Good
luck to you and your paper. Hope
to see you this summer.”
Many thanks Robert and we hope
that you will enjoy the weekly
visits of The Frontier for many
years to come. Be sure and drop
in when you come out this fall.
Expect Large Saving
To Farmer Borrowers
Nebraska farmers and stockmen
stand to benefit more than four
million dollars during the next two
years as the result of a bill passed
during the closing hours of con
gress. The bill continues the tem
porary rates on federal land bank
and land bank commissioner loans
and applies to all interest payable
prior to July 1, 1940, according to
Charles McCumsey, president of
the Federal Lank band of Omaha.
Land bank and commissioner
loans in Nebraska total 42,000 for
more than 160 million dollars, and
according to Mr. McCumsey the
savings to Nebraska farmers dur
ing the next two years will amount
to approximately $4,452,910.
Harlan Agnes Married
At Sioux City, Iowa
George Harlan Agnes and Miss
Kathryn King, of Des Moines, la.,
were married at Sioux City, Iowa,
on Tuesday morning, June 15, the
ceremony being performed by Mon
signor Coglan in tbe Cathedral of
the Epiphany. After the wedding,
breakfast was served to fourteen
at the West hotel. Mr. and Mrs.
George Agnes and Lorraine of
Petersburg, and Miss Virginia Ag
nes of Chicago, were present at the
wedding. Mr. and Mrs. Agnes will
make their home in Sioux City.
O’Neill friends of the groom ten
der their heartiest congratulations
and best wishes to the newly weds.
SANDHILL CALF CLUB
The Sandhill Calf Club held their
meeting June 17 at the Andy Clark
home. All members were present
but one, Herbert Price. After the
meeting, a delicious lunch was
served. The next meeting will be
at the C. L. Hershiser home July 17.
Director of Budget Changes Mind
On G-Men
As a consequence of a storm of
disapproval over his recent action
recommending a slash in the Fed
eral Bureau of Investigation ap
propriation item, Daniel W. Bell,
Acting Director of the Budget, has
neatly reversed himself. J. Edgar
Hoover, Chief of the FBI originally
asked for $6,474,905. Bell recom
mended $6,043,200,' a difference of
$431,705 and the FBI was allotted
the amount recommended by the
Budget Director. Fortunately for
J. Edgar Hoover, the Congress is
now considering the second defici
ency bill and since Bell has changed
his attitude toward the Bureau of
Investigation, it will be a relatively
simple matter to include a supple
mentary appropriation item in that
bill for Mr. Hoover’s bureau.
Institution Trains Cream Of
Young Men
June week is all over at Annapo
lis where Uncle Sam turned out a
lot of new naval officers some of
whom may be future admirals. At
West Point a class of new army
officers was turned out, some of
whom may be our future generals.
In both schools some of the back
ward students are dropped by the
wayside. These become heart
broken boys who had dreams of a
great future.
Nebraska has students in both
schools and from information these
boys are in very good standing.
Fortunate is the young man to
whom this great opportunity comes.
It costs the taxpayers of the nation
$20,000 to $25,000 to graduate each
one of these boys. They are picked
from the flower of American youth.
They go thru intensive studies.

SOUTHWEST BREEZES
By Romaine Saunders
There are too many $25,000 a
year jobs and not enough $1.60 a
day jobs.
Mr. and Mrs. J. Roblyer of At
kinson, visited friends out here a
day last week.
It is said Secretary Wallace is
worrying over bumper crop pros
pects. Now that is something to
harass us, isn’t it?
Father’s Day affords another
yearly occasion for the comic val
entine, rather grotesquely com
bined with tender sentiment.
The Art Doolittle family spent
Thursday at Bernard Kennedy’s
while Art and his sister, Mrs. Ken
nedy, attended to business in At
kinson.
_
Mrs. Huflfnaegle of Lincoln, vis
ited for several days last week at
the Riley ranch. During her visit
here, Mrs. Riley, suffering severely
since last December, was able to
make a trip with her to Atkinson.
If mentally and physically cap
able, the self-appointed eunich with
none but himself to provide for
during a period of 65 years should
be able to furnish his own “old
age assistance.” In other words,
bachelors should not be admitted to
the pension rolls.
Road Supervisor Earl Doolittle,
with a helper, was over this way
Friday to fill a hole in the ap
proach to a bridge and make a
little improvement to the roadway
passing Young’s. Other aid to the
traveling public is a coat of gravel
deposited on No. 11 and the strip
running into Amelia.
Portions of this community are
beset with grasshoppers for the
first time during these recent years
of the ravages of this insect. Gar
dens are disappearing, the hungry
hoppers showing a particular lik
ing for green onion tops. Beans,
tomato plants, lettuce and potato
vines go to make up their diet,
while the miles of waving grass
apparently is untouched.
William Krotter of Stuart, vis
ited this section a day last week
and spent a little time discussing
friendships and experiences of an
earlier day with the writer. Mr.
Krotter came to O’Neill in ’87 and
started a career of industrial ac
tivity which has grown to large
proportions by driving the old mule
team at the Barnett & Freeze lum
ber yard. Mr. Krotter said he at
tended the funeral of Mr. Barnett
at McCook. He had known him
since boyhood days in Illinois.
Not that times have changed
but the manipulations of politicians
and ways of doing simple things
differ as men continue to jockey
for advantage. The fundamental
needs of life remain without
change since creation’s dawn. Air,
nourishment for bodily functions,
protection against the elements and
a good bed at night are as es
sential now as ever. And down
here in the southwest these are
realized in full fruition, with the
added advantage of nature’s great
laboratory for study and spiritual
inspiration.
One mile north of the north
boundary of O’Neill and not far
to the east of the east boundary,
at the period with which this para
graph is concerned, there was a
grove of small cottonwoods plant
ed by the hand of a pioneer com
plying with land office regulations
to acquire title to a “timber claim.”
Approaching this grove a mild mid
summer day I was frightened out
of a year’s growth. But wait ’til I
tell you, as O. Henry would say.
On my foot-free w'ay into town £o
remain a day or two—the parental
home being out that way—I was
frozen in my tracks when a huge
brown bear raised himself to a
sitting posture there in the grove
just ahead. Then another stuck
up his head. Now t<> a 14-year-old
boy hardly adjusted to the harm
less wild life of the prairie the
jungles of Africa could hold no
greater terror than what I saw
confronting me. My first impulse
was to make for one of three set
tlers—Mark Murphy, Mike Lawless
or George Mitchell's log cabin a
mile south. And just about to
take to flight I saw three nien in
there with the bears. The men
were of nomadic tribes of southern
Europe and were touring this pi
oneer community with their danc
ing bears and collection cup. They
had taken to the 52 mile trail from
O’Neill to Niobrara, at thnt time a
stage route, and were* just resting I
in the grove when I came upon
them.
Scattered Showers The
Past Week Give Rain
To Most Of The County
The northern and the western
half of Holt county haa been
blessed with good rains the past
week. According to the weather
observer here there has been only
.66 of an inch of moisture register
ed in this city during the past week,
but they have had copuious rains in
other sections of the county.
Last Sunday we had a shower
here that amounted to .10 of an
inch, while north of here four miles
the rainfall amounted to one inch,
and it extended to the east line of
the county. It was lighter in
other places but amounted to about
two inches in the Dorsey neighbor
hood.
Wednesday night this city had
a slight rainfall, amounting to .16
of an inch. They had better than
three quarters of an inch at Stuart,
about an inch at Atkinson and
three quarters of an inch at Em
met, and the heavy rain came to
within three miles of this city.
They also had a good rain north
east of here, starting about two
miles northeast of town and ex
tending to the northeast section of
the county. Fred Richter in town
this morning says they had a
dandy rain out in his section.
The rain of last Sunday and last
night will just amout insure the
small grain crop. It needed the
rain of last Sunday as the grain
was ripening a little too rapidly,
without moisture. Hoppers are
causing damage in several sections
of the county and poison bait is
being distributed in all sections of
the county to try and extinguish
these pests.
Following is the weather chart
for the past week:

afternoon by Rev. H. D. Johnson.
FILINGS FOR OFFICE
County Attorney Julius D. Cron
in filed last Monday as a candidate
for renomination and reelection as
county attorney.
On Tuesday Emmet A. Harmon
filed for the democratic nomination
for county attorney of this county.
Mr. Cronin and Mr. Harmon were
the opposing candidates in the
general election four years ago.
—r—
Lee Boyer, traveling salesman
for the Western Paper Co., and
who has been making this terri
tory for the past forty-five years,
was a caller at this office this morn
ing. Lee returned a few weeks
ago from a three months tour of
South America and he has many
interesting tales to tell of his trip
thru the southern republics. He is
getting to be quite a tourist. A
couple of years ago he took a
tour of four months thru Europe,
visiting about all the countries
west of the Pacific. Now that he
has made the southern trip he has
pretty well covered the world, but
still believes that the old U. S. A.
is the best spot on earth.
John H. Hopkins, sheriff of
Douglas county, George W. O’Mal
ley, collector of internal revenue,
and Dr. McMahan, all of Omaha,
came up last Saturday night to
spend a few days visiting friends in
this city and incidently to take in
the festivities in connection with
the annual golf tournament. They
left for home Tuesday afternoon.

Alfred Hewitt
Funeral rites for Alfred Hewitt,
47, of Norfolk, were conducted
Sunday afternoon in the First Con
gregational church of Norfolk, by
the Rev. Joseph Steele, Sioux City.
Mr. Hewitt was born in Columbus
May 13, 1891, and when a young
man became a salesman and fol
lowed that vocation for the past
twenty-five years, most of which
was spent traveling in the O’Neill
territory. At the time of his death
he was employed by the. Donald
grocery company of Grand Island.
Surviving are his wife, two broth
ers and four sisters. Burial was in
Columbus.
Fail To Make Planned
Move To South Dakota
The New Deal Oil company had
not moved from its location here
up to Wednesday evening. They
had planned to move Monday, and
had ordered their subscription to
this paper transferred to Cham
berlain, S. D.
When questioned at to the reason
for their failure to move, Carl Asi
mus informed a representative of
The Frontier that the lease deal at
Chamberlain had fallen thru, and
that they were attempting to make
a location at Kimball, S. D.
He reaffirmed his statement of
a week ago, that they would move
from here, but did not know yet the
date or the place.
Sandhill Producers Will
Meet At Atkinson July 2
A meeting of the Sandhills Feed
er Cattle Producers will be held in
the City Hall in Atkinson at 8 p. m.
July 2. All ranchers are urged to
be present. Sanhills Feeder Cattle
Producers has made a remarkable
growth since its organization on
May 21. It now has members rep
resenting over 70,000 head of cattle.
The association is organized for
the purpose of advertising, popu
larizing, improving the quality and
aiding in the sale of Sandhills
feeder cattle; maintaining a code
of ethics between buyers and sell
ers; and promoting a spirit of co
operation, friendship and mutual
understanding among producers of
beef type cattle in this region.
Sandhills producers should at
tend these meetings and be in
formed. The officers of the associa
tion, including the President, Sam
R. McKelvie, will be present.
Louis Smears Moxie
In The First Round
It took Joe Louis a little over
two minutes to erase from Schmel
ing’s mind any idea he might have
had that he was a great fighter.
The Brown Bomber had things all
his own way and it begins to look
as if Schmeling’s defeat of Louis
in 1936 was a real fluke. He was
not in the ring long enough Wed
nesday night to show whether he
had anything or not. Most of the
time he was in the ring he was on
the floor, having been downed by
blows from Louis’ fists. The gate
receipts were nearly a million dol
lars and Max’s share will keep him
in opulance for years to come.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Phalin re
turned Tuesday evening from a
three weeks visit with their daugh
ter and son at Gary, Ind., and with
relatives in Chicago. While away
they also visited their old home
in Prairie du Chien, Wis., and
Frank said he enjoyed his visit to
the old home scenes very much.
While there he attended mass in
the church where he was baptised,
received his first holy communion
and where he was married. While
not many of the friends of his
youth are left in the old home town
they enjoyed their visit there very
much. It was the first vacation
Frank had taken in ten years and
he said that he enjoyed every
minute of it.
Annuoncement of the engage
ment and approaching marriage of
Miss Catherine Lawlor of Lincoln,
to Frederick M. Deutsch of Nor
folk, was received this week by
O’Neill friends of Miss Lawlor.
The wedding is to take place at St.
Mary’s Cathedral in Lincoln, July
28. Miss Lawlor was a teacher in
the O’Neill Public schools for sev
eral years following her gradua
tion from the University of Ne
braska, and has many friends here
who wish her well.
Randall C. Biart of Omaha, was
in O’Neill Friday on business.
TOP TOURNAMENT
HONORS ARE WON
BY PAUL W. TIPTON
Francis Soukup Is Runner-Up, But
Is Unable To Maintain His
Pace In Final Round.
One of the most successful tour
naments held for many years was
the seventeenth annual golf tour
nament of the O’Neill Country
Club which ended Tuesday after
noon with Dr. Paul W. Tipton of
Omaha, being crowned champion
for 1938, defeating Francis Soukup
5 and 4. For eight years Dr. Tip
ton has been coming to O’Neill
every summer and entering the
tournaments. He never succeeded
in reaching the finals until this
year.
He was medalist last Sunday,
shooting a 75 for a qualifying score,
several lower than any other en
trant. Dr. Tipton has been per
sistant in seeking the cup and his
persistency finally won him the
honor and many O’Neillites are
pleased that he finally won the
title.
Francis Soukup, who contested
for the championship with Dr. Tip
ton, was not shooting his usual
game, or it would have been a
much closer battle. Francis has
been away at school and has not
been home long enough to get in
proper trim for the contest, but in
a few weeks he will be able to take
any of them on.
One hundred and five entered the
qualifying rounds last Sunday, the
largest for seevral years.
In flight No. 2 Charles Godkin,
Neligh, won from Dr. L. A. Bur
gess 4 up.
xt- o _ u_: n if
Gallagher, who won 1 up on 20
holes, making a final 25-foot putt
to win from Don Gallcher.
In flight No. 4, H. Halderson of
Long Pine, defeated Ted McElhan
ey 1 up for the championship.
Bid Wanser, 13, son of Buv Wan
ser of Page, with a finger of each
hand in heavy bandages, won a
consolation from his own brother,
Max.
