M. Con way and V W. Derrick who spoke at a meeting attended by . 50 farmers Monday. Both men streswsd effi cient meat promotion. Derrick recommended use of protein supple- ments along with home grown grains and large quantities of roughage. Uso of self feeders and hogging down corn and other crops was also stressed. Conway suggested feeding good to choice yearlings or two year old steers for market from late winter to early summer. Calves might be bought by the feeder who plans to market animals next fall. Conway pointed out that there, is no danger at present of getting steers too heavy. He also mentioned that con siderable stock is going to the killers at less than average weights which indicates a shortage of cattle next year. He expects prices to be at or above ceiling levels. Feeders were urged to plant as many acres of feed crops as possible and keep their feed supplies lined up ahead. Hog production will continue to be profitable and for a quick turnover breeding ewes good for one year were suggested. Caution will be in order later when the war is over but for the present farmers should find it profitable and patriotic to produce as much livestock as they can economically. Poultry Problem "yV: ; ,Cool or even cold weather over much of Nebraska during the last 2 weeks has caused another poultry problem, ExtensionPoultryman Jack Itedditt of the College of "Agricul ture said this week. The cool weather and tendency of young poultry to crowd together causes roup to develop ln'; many' flocks. The ail ment spreads quickly -If such birds are marketed, others may. be affected, and the ipal result is ; that ; meat which is needed in thefnation'fej war effort , is lost?; t- Birds that are irealthy., are less likely to be affected: .-Therefore the flock should have pleflty -of 'feeder and waterer space in a' house that provides them 'plenty .of room.

Correct tem perature, humidity, and proper ven tilation are factors that must be considered in the storage of vege tables. Storage possibilities include gar den row, mound, barrel, cellar or basement and cave. Detailed infor mation on home storage of vegeta bles will be found in circular CC 57 which is available at the Farm Bureau Office upon request. Removes From City. This week two ' bf ' the " employees of the Journal have removed from the city to find new homes on the-i west coast and curtailing the force of the newspaper. Otto Crouch, who came here from Fremont to serve as the mechanical superintendent of the Journal, with Mrs. Crouch aftd their son, Otto, Jr., are moving to California where Mr. Crouch has a very good position of fered and will retire from the print ing trade. . ' C. B. Briggs, who has been with the Journal since last December as a linotype operator departed Sunday for Eugene, Oregon, where he will be employed at his trade. The family will remain here for the present but expect to join Mr. Briggs in a short time. The Briggs family are former residents of Oregon and are antici pated a pleasant return to that sec tion of the west. Has Tire Stolen Scrap Cass County farmers are urged to complete the job of collecting all available scrap iron on their farms this week and see that it is hauled to town by October 17th. Cornhusk ing will start in a few days and this will be about the last slack period there will be on the farm until the corn crop is harvested. By that time weather will likely be un favorable for collecting scrap iron. Local committees representing each town in the county and sur rounding trade territory are coop erating in the collection campaign. Iron can be sold or donated. In case it is sold out of the county local committees would like to have a re port of the amount so Cass County can get credit. During the campaign this summer nearly 200 pounds of scrap per capita was collected. It is hoped that the present drive will result iu even a better record. - Sam Arn, .of the Black & White meat market, last evening at the close of the business day, with Mrs. Arn started for their home, going to the parking lot at the rear of the Soen nichsen Co., to secure their car. It was then that Sam discovered that someone had been there first and made away with the left front tire. The party that removed the tire had left the burs lying on the ground and enabled the car owner to get the spare on in, place of the stolen tire. Sheriff Joe Mrasek was notified and came to the scene of the theft but no trace was found of the theft or the tire. Give Much Scrap , With the scran, drive on Thurs day there is keen competition among the residents of the neighboring community to secure as large a yield as possible of the scrap metal, in one of the recent loads secured just before the opening of the present drive there was 8,880 pounds that came from the farm of Wallace Warer west of the city. This is a fine showing and it is hoped that it may be duplicated from other farms in the Thursday big push. General .MacArthur's Ileadquar tere, Australia, Oct. , 7-(UP) Al lied bombing raids on two key Jap anese, bases' in 'the Solomon Islands were announced today while Austral ian troops continued their unopposed march 'through the Owen Stanley mountains of New Guinea, 550 miles to the west. ' The bombers heavily attacked the airdrome and installations on Buka Island,' northernmost of the Solomons. In a dawn raid they ,showered demol ition and incendiary bombs which hit runways, '. plane dispersal areas, buildings and anti-aircraft batteries. Fires and explosions burst in the tar get area as the planes left. ; Another bomber force made a night r,aid on the airdrome at , Buin; : in Bougainville Island just below Buna. Darkness prevented observation of re sults. , , ." Both Buka and Buin are increasing in importance as Japanese bases be cause of the United States Marine invasion of the southern Solomons and the present "Australian drive in New Guinea f ;: 1 . f.' At both places the Japanese 'have built airdrome landing-strips about 50 yards wide and 90ft yards long. J Lockheed Hudson medium bombers made the first attack in many days in the northwestern .' Australian "i zone. They flew 6f 5-miles northward of Darwin, the' Allied north coast base, to attack Japanese oil tanks'at Boela, on the northeast coast of Ceram island in the Moluccas. - The Australians in the Owen Stan ley mountains continued a slow and difficult climb from Kagivillage to ward the hump of the range, six air line miles ahead and , 1.000 feet above them.

Better Nutrition Needed Farm and town homemakers have been observing the new national nutritional standards, but there is plenty of evidence that much work remains to be done. Home Demon stration Agent Miss Baldwin said today. Extension home economists re cently completed a survey with 682 homemakers who represented 2,662 people in their families. They found that most women have given more attention to planning meals according to the daily food guide during the past year. However, the homemakers did not indicate that every child in their families is getting the recommended 1 quart of milk daily. In fact, 374 I said this was true, but 151 replied j in the negative. The greater share of the adults were getting their recommended pint of milk daily. It was found that most of the families were using whole,, grains and enriched flour and bread. Not all the homemakers said they used the cooking water as is being recom mended. Most of the homemakers serve tomatoes or citrus fruits to their families each day. ? " 5 One of the encouraging things about the- survey results - was that there seemed to. be growing- con sciousness" of good food habits. The great majority of homemakers said that their families leave clean With the days of its life numbered the cannon on the court house lawn received some attention this morn little fun and why not. His plans include the patriotic burning of a war bond by the winning guesser. The Sheriff hopes to get enough guesses for the purchase of this bond, and invites those interested to "throw in." toys Away in i slim i Wclvorlno Snell Horsehii'.s Triple A l a n n i n g froecia Is Knm-vn Only SHELL! sm.i notEuiE wean shoes WOSTER'S Your Family Shoe Store Plattsmouth, Nebraska High Grade Shoe Repair Now is the time to do your Christmas shopping for verseas mailing.
