THUI1SDAY; OCTOBER 21, 1943 TEE JOURNAL, PLATTSMOUTH, KEBBASEA PAGE FIVE j Weeping Water nil departments. His theme next. Sunday morning is ::A Faith Defer Promotes New Idea We wonder how many of our peo ple realize the significance of the speech correction clinics and lectures which are being held at the Weeping Water school building tach Satur day morning for fifteen weeks. Or een Perkins of Omaha, state chair man of the Nebraska Society for Crippled Children, states their pur pose this way, "We want to bring speech correction to children with speech handicap." The work here is being sponsored by the Cass county committee of the Nebraska Society for Crippled Children and money is raised by the sale of seals at Easter time. As the teachers are asked to co-operate in this work, it was the idea of Mrs. Lora Lloyd Kieck, Cass county school superintendent, that the teachers should have the bene fit of these off-campus classes and receive credit for their work done there. Althoucn tne speecn enmes t t the held in other counties Mrs. Kieck's idea of giving the teachers credit for their work, while getting the instruction is original, and she deserves great credit for her work along this line. The speech clinic opens each Sa turday morning at nine o'clock and lasts until noon. Dr. L. T. Lasse of the state I niversity will be speak er at the meeting this Saturday.

During the 1943 legislative ses sion, the Unicameral passed LB-295, an act which enables counties and groups of counties to establish local health departments for the health protection of their citizens to levy the necessary taxes and to set up the organization of such a health de partment. The enabling act is re garded as a milestone in the develop ment of public health services for Nebraska. Home Demonstration clubs will study the details of the enabling act which means that rural people may begin to have some of the health servies now available only in large urban centers. The demonstration is in the form of questions and answers and explains the bill. A circular, prepared by Miss Elin Anderson, will provide all of the basic information about the legislation and how it can be applied locally.

Insects on Wheat A green plant louse has been found in lather large numbers on blades of wheat plants in many Cass county farms. Fortunately the in sect known as the apple grain aphid usually is not a serious pest accord ing to O. S. Bare cf the Entomology department of the Agricultural col lege. A good rain would help the wheat a lot, however, and check the louse. Plan Garden Plowing A statewide fall Victory garden Flowing campaign looking ahead to 3 944, is now being planned and Cass county gardeners in town and coun try alike will be urged to participate. The statri pxfrntivf mmmittMi rf t the v ictory Home and Garden Pro gram reeommended the fall plowing campaign in a meeting last week in Lincoln. At the same time, the group agreed that continued, emphasis on home tood production through gar dens w-ill be encouraged in 1944. Preparedness Program Trof. M L. Baker of the College of Agriculture suggests a two-point "preparedness program" for live stockmen for the post-war period. Reduction of or the entire liqui dation of indebtedness while prices are good is regarded as the first step in such a program. The second fctep is to make every effort to keep the livestock a producing herd. "Keep the old cows past their prime mov'ng to market where they will add to the tonnage of beef bad ly needed now," says Baker. "Re place then; with younger females of more desirable type and better quality. Then, if and when, lower prices conu the herd will be ap proaching its peak of productivity instead of having passed it; it will be young enough that it can be kept during the probable period of low prices instead of having to be sold at the low point." Baker a.so pointed out that the younger animals will require less feed. He says this will allow for some culling next year which would keep up th farm income and help maintain production. The present situation also gives the farmer interest in beef cattle production an unequalled opportun ity to replace cattle with age and of mediocre quality and type with young cattle of excellent quality and beet type with a minimum of ex penditure. It is true that good cattle are high in price but mediocre cattle are relatively higher than at almost any other time in our history" Baker says. Ninety-six cents sol t every dollar goes for War expenditures. The other four cents goes for Government expenses "as For Freedom's Sake usual."
