Rhubarb Jelly
To make rhubarb jelly, wash rhu
barb, cut in one inch pieces with
out removing skin. Place in kettle
over low heat. Add just enough wa
1 ter to prevent sticking. Cover and
cook until tender. Strain through
a jelly bag. Place juice in large
kettle. To each cup of juice add 2
tablespoons granulated pectin and
stir vigorously. Bring to a boil. Add
1 cup honey for each cup of juice.
Continue boiling until the jelly test
is reached. Pour into sterilized jelly
glasses. Cover with paraffin. Note:
about 1 cup juice.
Experiments Show Burning
Pastures Injures Growth
To burn or not to burn is the
question that many land owners ask
themselves each spring. Usually
they succumb to the impulse to
"clean up the place." Or they may
bum over their lands because they
think it improves the subsequent
growth or destroys insects. For this
reason, it is interesting to note that
experiments with blue grass pas
ture in Wisconsin showed that
burning in winter or spring reduced
' yields the following year from 52 to
71 per cent. These results were be
lieved to be due to the damage by
fire to the roots and crowns of the
grass plants, some of which were
killed entirely. The Illinois depart
ment of conservation reports that |
burning of pasture lands in early ;
spring not only fails to improve the :
grass, but may cut grass produc
tion in half in a single year. Ob
servations in Illinois have revealed
that on land consistently burned, the
perennial grasses and other more ,
I valuable forage plants are rapidly
• replaced by annual weeds that are
nearly worthless for pasture.
The report goes on to say that a
still greater loss caused by fire, al
though not so apparent in a single
year, is the destruction of soil fer
tility. Burning off grass or woodland
litter increases water run-off from
5 to 30 times and speeds up soil
erosion 4 to 11 times. It might also
be mentioned that spring burning de
stroys the nests and eggs of count
less valuable song and game birds
which would have been diligent de
stroyers of insects all summer long
if their nests had not been ravaged
by fire.

"SOIL-CONSERVATION
IS ONE KIND OF
SELF-REGULATION"
\
The thousands of Nebraska farmers who adhere to the
sound practices of soil and water conservation not only \
protect their own interests but the interest of all whose lives
and fortunes are dependent on Nebraska’s fertile acres.
This activity on the farms yields benefits to the com
mon good much like the Nebraska Committee’s self-regu
lation program in the brewing industry; a program which 'f
constantly develops and promotes clean, orderly condi
tions and observance of law wherever beer is sold, and
thus benefits both the industry and our citizens in all
walks of life.

LAST YEAR at this time I en
loyed the acquaintance of a busi
ness man whose salary was $50,
p00 a year. I looked upon him
E’ith a great deal of admiration
nd respect for several reasons,
le earned what he has with hard
rork and know-how. His em
ployees, numbering above ten
thousand, call him Uncle Frank,
lie lives in a small town and
pelps a lot of people in a quiet
way. ...
j Last week somebody showed me
la page of a pocket-size magazine
published for the employees of
his company and I read with
grave interest that his pay had
been cut. That was news by any
body’s standard; most people are
getting raises in pay these days.
What’s more, this man’s pay-cut
is big. It amounts to more in a
year than most men manage to
accumulate in a whole lifetime.
f
^Salary SAID the signed state
Shrank ment: “I insisted that
the board of directors
reduce my annual salary from
$50,000 to one dollar. I have not
been receiving net anywhere near
$50,000 a year for working . . .
(Only $309.36 was left for my use
put of my 1944 wages . . . Why
should I permit the company to
pay out $50,000 a year to benefit
be by only $309.36?”
i Let me make haste to say that
l am not sorry for Uncle Frank.
He will be all right; he has some
other money. I am not worried
Bbout his employees either. The
faithful workers among them will
be able to retire in dignified com-l
fort. My only concern is over
men who, next year or the next.i
may hunt jobs and not find them;]
jobs Uncle Frank would like to,
offer but can’t. j
Inside HERE is another en-j
Figures lightening passage from/
his statement: “Per
haps you wonder why my net]
realization from wages has been/
so small. The answer lies in the;
extremely high income tax rates
which apply to my wages, added
as they are to my other income,
and to the fact that I must pay!
not only federal income taxes but!
also state income taxes.”
Men who cut off big salaries]
have other income. That’s why)
their tax rates are so high. That’s;
why they can afford to spurn aj
salary. Cut if they must decline
the proceeds of their own invest
ed earnings, one thing is sure:
They will not hazard further
earnings to start new ventures or
expand old ones. Investments in
business are not safe. Any in-j
vestment is a risk.
Men with money invest it only]
when they believe it will pay rea-;
sonable returns. Now they are,
sure of one fact: Nearly every
thing an investment earns will be;
taxed away. Will they invest in,
new enterprises? No. Then where/
will our returning service men/
find work? Unless present tax
laws are changed soon, they will,
find it on a huge WPA to the dis
grace of free America.

TOMMOROW’S WORLD CLUB
We the members of the To
morrow’s World Club are asking
the support of all racial under
standing men and women of the
Mid-City Omaha. At the present
we are but a large group of Negro
Yoths who are striving to make
this world a better one for to
morrow’s world. Of course the
word world is used here only as
a general scope of our aim, for
we cannot expect to gain anything
unless we start right here in Om
aha. This is why we are asking
that all Freedom loving Omaha
Negro citizens come out and give
us the help and support that we
need so badly. We’re also asking
that you that are parents and have
children betwee the ages of 15
and 21 inclusive, to entice them to
attend these meetings.
