Last Satnrday Evening.
From Tuesday's Dally
On Saturday evening the little
town of Mynard was the scene of a
very enjoyable occasion when the
surrounding neighborhood were the
guests at a big Hallowe'en commun
ity party.
This hospitable occasion was given
by the Goldenrod Study club, the
Mynard Ladies Aid society and the
Merry Workers' club, west of Mynard,
who jointly arranged and tarried out
the plans for this delightfu laffair.
The hall was decorated in Hallo
we'en colors, with owls, witches, cats,
etc., used in profusion and with crepe
paper festooning. In one corner was
located the witches' fortune telling
den, which provided much merriment
for both old and young, and which
was installed and operated by the
Merry Woikers' club.
During the early part of the even
ing, the audience was entertained by
a program as follows:
Community singing. "America."
Recitation. Richard Cole.
Piano Duets, the Witches.
Recitation, Frances Wetenkamp.
Seng and Pantomime, by Eight
Gloomy G loops.
Ghost Story, by a Witch.
Piano Duets. Mrs. Elbert Wiles
and Mrs. Will Minford.
Short Talk, Rev. G. B. Weaver.
Mrs. S. W. Cole, president of the
Goldenrod Study club, addressed the
audience with a few remarks in re
gard to the splendid to-operation of
the men in the community, who had
responded so willingly with their
time and labor, putting forth every
effort to carry on the work of build
ing the community hall. In a most
fitting manner she extended thanks
and appreciation for the service, and
also asked the audience to give a
rising vote of thanks to the three
Plattsmouth men who superintended
the wiring of the building and in
stallation of the fixtures. They are
John Schutz. Leonard Terryberry
and Harvey L. Gamer, who donated
their services, and for which the
audience unanimously responded by
a rising vote of thanks.
Then she spoke briefly on the idea
of a community building that orig-

the sorrowing friends at the passing

J. ; a self feeder of shelled corn proved
.to be a cheaper way of producing
j pork than self feeding both the corn
s.jand thetankage in a recent 83 day
.'experiment at the Nebraska college
1 agriculture. The hogs on the self
ieeaers oi corn an tannage put on
larger gains, however, even tho they
did not eat more tankage than they
really needed for the cheapest gains.
Shelled corn was figured at 98 cents
per bushel and tankage at fSO per
ton. The same results would have
been obtained had corn been figured
at 70 cents per bushel, about the
present leval.
The experiment also proved that
heavy feeding of tankage does not
reduce corn consumption, but rather
increases it. Pigs receiving no tank
age at all gained less than half as
fast as those on a full feed of tank
age. The pigs weighed about 50
pounds when put into the test and

and quality. They were on good Su
dar grass pasture during the entire
period. Pasture was charged at

The housewife who is keeping a I
number of house plants this winter
may profit by clipping the following
and putting it away where she can
find it: For plant lice, spray the
plants with a nicotine solution or
dust them with a nicotine dust; for
mealy bugs or red spiders, wash them '.
off the plants by forcibly spraying
the plants with water; for scale in
sects, wash the plants with a soap
solution; and for angleworms in the
soil use a lime-water solution.
Diseases can be handled by either
spraying with postassium sulphide or
dusting with flowers of sulphur. The
sulphide should be mixed with wa
ter, one ounce to three gallons.l
