Crop Disease Forecasting: The United States Department of Agriculture regional pro gram for experimental forecast ing of the spread of certain crop diseases is getting under way. Three field headquarters have been set up at which fed eral specialists will cooperate with state plant pathologists in compiling reports on the first appearances and prevalence of late blight of potatoes and to matoes, blue mold of tobacco, and downy mildew of curcur bits. They will also relate this occurrence of disease with the weather and other environmental factors.

Slate Historical Society There was no lack of oppor tunity for higher education in territorial Nebraska on paper. Within two years frorn the time the first legal settler en tered Nebraska the territorial legislature had chartered seven institutions of higher learning. Before the territorial period was over, a total of 13 sach institu tions had been provided for more than half the total number of colleges, universities and jun ior colleges in the state today. Of all these early institutions only one exists today in any form whatever the Peru Semi nary and college, which develop ed into the present State Teach ers College at Peru. Most of the others never got beyond the stage of glorious planning. The few which actual ly had doors to open soon were forced tQ close them again in face of meager population and uncertain financial support. In deed, a good many of those early towns which once had visions of becoming- great educational cen ters are not even indicated on present-day maps. Some of them faded quickly in the rapidly changing fortunes of the fron tier. Just ten years after the charter of Nemaha University at Archer, for example, the town site was vacated by act of the legislature. There were a number of rea sons for this great, if abortive, interest in higher education on the part of Nebraska's territorial pioneers. Each town, of course, felt that an institution of higher learning would help attract sett lers, and thus was essential to development. Then, too. some of the colleges probably were founded as purely speculative enterprises. It seemed that vir tually everyone was speculating in one thing or another during the early territorial period and there was no reason why higher education should have been overlooked. As speculative en terprises, it need not be stated, the colleges and universities were dismal failures. The basic reason, though, for the founding of so many colleges and universities was the deep interest in higher education abid ing in the minds of many of the prominent pioneers. A rather considerable number of those who assumed leadership in the new territory were young men just out of college J. Sterling Morton, Thomas B. Cuming, A. J. Poppleton, Robert W. Furnas, and others and were concerned that Nebraska should early come under the influence of institu tions of higher education and that the young people of Ne braska be given every opportuni ty for college training here at home. The interest of leading pio neers was shared by many humb ler citizens. Many an overland wagon carried among those things it lugged so laboriously across the plains more than a goodly portion of books. Four-H Feeding Project Nemaha County Agent Bob Wilson tells of a feeding project set up by members of the Bethel Meat Producers livestock club, and the Blue Ribbon Stock club. Through an arrangement with the Auburn Nebraska Alfalfa Company, Jean Mclninch of the Bethel Meat Producers, and Nor ma Prather of the Blue Ribbon Stock Club will feed their 4-H calves dehydrated alfalfa mixed in the feed ration. Two tons of dehydrate alfalfa was donated by the mil for the tests, and the girls will keep records of their feeding activities so that their calves may be compared with calves fed on other feeds. Laugh Off Drought ! LLANO, Tex. (0J.R)) Drought, j described by some ranchers as , worst they remember on the ! Edwards plateau of Texas, is not causing the cattle and sheep men any financial loss. High price of meat makes it possible for the ranchers to sell their livestock at a neat profit, if the range is not sufficient to feed them through the winter. Use Journal Want Ads Masquerade Hall!

Sanders of the State Safety Patrol has an nounced that the entire resources of the Patrol will be thrown in to the fray against traffic acci dents in ever increasing intensity in getting behind the Nebraska State Safety Council's program to "Save 100 Lives in '48." "Good enforcement," Dwight Havens, president of the Coun cil, said, "is a major bulwark in our campaign to "Save 100 Lives in '48', and Captain Sanders' assurance that the Patrol will redouble its efforts in this re gard will be gratefully received by all good drivers" Havens, m complimenting the Patrol on a tough job well done during- 1947, said that it was not until nearly the end of the year that the Patrol received addi tional manpower and patrol cars to aid them in the terrific job of adequately covering the 9.500 miles of Nebraska's highway system. "Captain Sanders gave me some very interesting statistics," Havens said, "that provide con vincing proof that the patrol was very busy during 1947. They made 7,557 arrests of which 7,097 violaters were successfully prosecuted. The Patrol also made 11,803 assists on the highway. These included helping many motorists to change tires, get ting stalled motorists started or towing them into town, and also included "mercy runs" which in volve taking injured or sick in dividuals to the hospital." T he 106 patrolmen drove the Patrol's 68 cars 2,642,091 miles during 1947. Havens also pointed out that these men are on twenty-four hour call and they are frequently forced to give up their off duty time when emer gencies arise. The Patrol's 21 radio operators in nine stations strategically lo cated across the state, are in constant touch with all Patrol cars, which are equipped with three-way radios. "This three way radio communication sys tem," Havens continued, '"is a distinct improvement over the old for it not only permits com munication between the car and station but also between cars." Havens also brought out the fact that in addition to the Pa trol's traffic activities, it is working extensively with all state and national agencies in the apprehension of criminals. "All of these activities add up to a big job." Havens concluded "and I feel that the Patrol is to be commended on the excellent handling of these activities with its limited personnel."

This means less Choice grade beef and more Good, Commercial, and Utility grades. The lower grades of meat do not mean the homemaker I is huvinf Ipss rmtr Stive meat than she has been accustomed to buying. Meat is not graded on a basis of its nutritive value but on its appetizing qualities. In many cases the lower grades offer more important values than the top grades. The leaner beef from grass or silage fed animals usual ly sell as lower Good or Com mercial or Utility grade. Pound for pound these grades have more protein, minerals, and vitamins, and the Choice and high Good grades more fat.. The extra fat in choice beef i or lamb is a luxury rather than an essential to diet. Dr. L. A. Maynard of Cornell University says that beef cattle and lambs should he fattened on grain only long enough to produce meat of acceptable quality. There is no nutritional justi fication for feeding to produce fat. Vegetable fats serve as well in the diet and are produced more cheaply. Most of the fat of highly fattened animals is wasted instead of being consum ed as meat. JAPANESE TEACHERS FALL IN PURGE TOKYO, OJ.R!
