Asparagus and rhubarb will be ready to harvest a lull year sooner while the onions will produce a harvest next spring, i For the asparagus bed, roots should be obtained and placed in a location which need not be dis turbed during the life of the garden, since a good asparagus bed will last several decades. Deep, rich soil is required and the plants should be given ample room, with three feet each way between hills. Dig a hole a foot deep, spread the roots out and set the crown of the plant six inches below the surface. Rhubarb is another long lived plant. Six plants will suffice for the average family and they should be placed where they will not be dis turbed, perhaps near the asparagus in a garden screen or border. The hardiest winter onion is the red perennial, sometimes called the Egyptian. This is one of the onions which instead of bearing seeds, produces at the top of the seed stalk a bunch of onion sets. These sets should be obtained and planted this fall, a foot apart in the row, in rows two feet apart; though few families will need more than . one row. This onion never produces a round bulb, but in the spring as soon as the ground thaws, it begins to grow stalks like green onions. Part of each clump may be pulled up and used, and with this annual thinning, and ordinary cul tivation, the plants will live in definitely. The flavor of the stalks is mild in the early spring, but becomes stronger later. .Where winters are mild, some of he said, the disease problems be fore bringing adult poultry from other farms. A small healthy- flock of pul- lets, Claybaugh said, often furn ishes more income from labor than a larger flock that goes through an outbreak of disease. Clarence Schmadcke, County Agricultural agent. Give asparagus roots plenty of room. the potato or multiplier onions may be planted in the fall, and they will produce clumps of green stalks in the early spring. These must be set out each year as the entire plant is harvested. In the colder states these onions will not survive without a heavy mulch, and in soqr.e winters even this will not protect them. Mr. R. A. Kuehn is not so well these days, now being confined to his bed. Mrs". Bertha Fitch and her dau ghters Ahlene and Ruth visited their aunt Miss Anna McFall one day last week.

Cass County Extension Notes 4-H Earlv Bird Poultry Club Reorganizes The first 1949 4-H club' to be orcanized in Cass countv is the "Early Bird" 4-H Poultry club at Nehawka. Apparently the club is appropriately named. Members of the club are James and Neil Bailer, Richard Ship ley, James Pollard, and Tommy Johnson. Leaders of the Early Bird club are James Pollard and Mrs. Hall Pollard, Nehawka. There are many advantages of clubs to reorganize early. It is hoped other clubs will fall in line and get a good early start in 1949. Any interested group in the county who wish to organize 4-H clubs for 1949 should contact the County Extension Office for particulars. Old Hens Often Disease Carriers Lincoln J. H. Claybaugh, Ex tension Poultryman at the Uni versity of Nebraska, warns that old hens in a flock of chickens may be a hazard because they may be carriers of such diseases as tuberculosis, fowl cholera, coryza and Laryngotracheitis. Where the old hen flock has been infected with any of these diseases, Claybaugh said, some of them remain carriers and are of ten the cause of outbreaks among susceptible pullets soon after the two are housed together. On farms where the old hens cannot be housed separately from the pullets, the poultry spe cialist warns, it is a hazardous practice to keep the two classes together.
