Eagles Endorse
the Pension Plan
for Old Age
State Aerie, Meeting at Omaha This
Week, Names Wilbur Hewitt
of This City Chaplain.
From Wednesday's Dally
The state aerie of the Fraternal
Order of Eagles at their meeting in
the Hotel Rome at Omaha yesterday
held their annual election of officers
and in their selection named one of
the active workers in the Plattsmouth
aerie, Wilbur Hewitt, past worthy
president, as the state chaplain. The
aerie named P. J. McCaffery of Co
lumbus, as grand worthy president
of the order.
The other officers were: Thomas
M. Dillon, Grand Island, vice presi
dent; John C. Miller, Nebraska City,
treasurer; Frank A. Matthews, Om
aha, secretary; Vernon Pope, York,
inside guard; R. P. Morgan, Alliance,
outside guard: S. R. McFarland, Nor
folk and E. Pitzrus, Hastings, trus
tees. The state aerie also passed a reso
lution endorsing the old age pension
plan and favoring the abolishment
of public owned poorhouses, these to
be supplanted by the pension plan,
the cost of which is to be borne by
taxation.
According to P. J. McGinley, rep
resenting the grand aerie, the Eagles
were the promoters of the plan to do
away with the poorhouse, and sub
stitute the pension plan. They have
put it through in eight states, ac
cording to Mr. McGinley, and legis
lation will be tried this winter in
Nebraska.
The money is to be raised by tax
ation, and according to figures pre
sented by Mr. McGinley, will be
cheaper for the taxpayer than the
present plan, besides being more con
venient and pleasant for the one who
receives the charity. The order found
that in Idaho the average cost of
keeping one person is $30 per month.
In the contest between the Platts
mouth and the South Omaha drill
teams in the exemplification of the
ritual last evening, the prize cup was
awarded to the South Omaha team.

FARM BUREAU NOTES
Copy for this Department
JU furnished by County Agent
Sweet Clover Gains in Favor.
During the past 7 years the acre
age of sweet clover has increased
lliOO per cent in Nebraska, accord
ing to figures of the State Depart
ment of Agriculture. The increase
in acreage is even greater than these
figures show because much sweet
clover in eastern Nebraska and ir
rigated land in western Nebraska is
seeded with oats, wheat or barley and
is plowed under the following spring
as a soil building crop. This great
acreage is for the most part not in
cluded in the acreage reported since
such land is classed as being In
small grain for the current year for
which the acreage figures are given.
A recent survey of Cass county by
County Agent, Mr. L. R. Snipes and
P. H. Stewart of the crops depart
ment at the Agricultural College
shows that 48 per cent of all of the
small grain of Cass County had a
legume crop seeded with it this year.
Altho considerable alfalfa and red
clover are seeded in this way much
of this 48 per cent is made up of
sweet clover grown largely for soil
building purposes.
There is no crop that will so quick
ly put poor land in good shape as
sweet clover according to Prof. Stew
art, who for the past 10 years has
been studying the use of this great
soil builder. The experience of farm
ers in general and the specific record
of those in the 10 acre Corn Yield
Contest shows that two years of
sweet clover works wonders with
their thin, sticky soil which is in
clined to wash easily. County Agent
Snipes of Cass county, who last j'ear
won first in a national contest with
his soil improvement program, has
done much to call attention to the
use and value of legume crops in his
county. The results of his recent sur
vey shows that farmers of his county
are not slow to follow out new prac
tices that are of practical value.

Strawberries
at their best
You will lem how good
strawberries really can be
when you eat them with
ShoreCCeC Wheat. For
breakfast, lunch or supper
this food combination is the
best treat of the season. The
distinctive flavor of crisp,
toasted whole wheat blends
wonderfully with the milk
and the fruit. It's an easily
digested food combination
too. Shredded Wheat is
nothing but selected whole
wheat, shredded and thor
oughly baked. And
with twelve full size
biscuits in every
package it's an

Made by The Shredded Wheat Company
A Big Ditch and a Broken Binder
It will soon be harvest time and
binders will be clicking away in
every grain field. It may be that
the binder will quit clicking sudden
ly when you attempt to cross that big
ditch back on the west eighty. More
than one binder frame is broken each
year in crossing ditches and that is
not the worst feature about the big
gulley
Th firt lhinr we know the little
ditch has become a big gulley. If this
has already happened it is probable
that the soil saving dam is about
the only thing now. The soil saving
dam can be used to stop gulleys of
almost any size. It is simply an earth
dam built across the ditch with a
drainage tube placed beneath it. The
flood coming down the ditch is stop
ped by the dam and the silt settles
out.
Several demonstrations will be
conducted this year in this county
showing how these dams are con
structed. If you have a ditch which
is getting beyond control with ordi
nary means you should attend one
of these demonstrations.
Woman Extension worker in County
Another Extension worker can be
secured tor Cass county and will he
gin work the 1st ot August or the 1st
of September. The people of Cass
county are asked to raise four hun
dred dollars ($400.00), then the Ex
tension Department at Lincoln and
at Washington D. C, will pay the
balance. This would enable us to do
more and better extension work with
the men, women, boys and girls.
