Gets Real Results Philpot Feed & Seed Company have been conducting a very in teresting experiment in their store the past four months, which was climaxed by a big birthday party last Wednesday night. Nearly four months ago they brought a young heifer calf named Beautina. into their store and it has remained there ever since in an specially constructed pen. The calf was born April 1st, and weighed 80 pounds. For the first 30 days she was fed on a ration of half milk and half-water and what ever Purina Calf Startena she could consume. After that time she was fed exclusively on Pur ina Calf Starten, hay, salt and water. When she was weighed on her four-month birthday she tipped the scales at 262 pounds and had eaten 425 pounds of Calf Starter. The figures showed a gain of 182 pounds at a total cost of S23.50. She was such a fine calf and had become such good friends with every child in the community that Mr. Phil pot celebrated her birthday by giving a big party, which was attended by 200 guests. Ice cream was the main feature of the evening with every child in town sporting a big Beautina balloon. Beautina wasn't the least im pressed by all the fuss being made over her and even ignored completely, the "cake" with the four candles. After the party was over she was removed from her apartment in the feed store to the wide open spaces of a pasture. Bert says that she didn't know how to act at first but when she finally got the drift of a carefree life in the country she kicked up her heels and ' raced off to make new friends.

STATIONERS 409-13 Main St. Legion Meeting Promises Many Big Features One of the liveliest American Legion State Conventions in re cent years is forecast for the 32nd annual meeting which will convene in Lincoln next Friday and continue through Sunday. Two candidates for the posi tion of Department Commander are already in the field, and it is rumored that more may get into the race. Arthur Melies of Nebraska City and Emil Nel son of Potter tossed their hats into the ring some time ago. Melies is an Army veteran of World War II, while Nelson served in the Navy in World War I. Four department Vice Commanders, a department Chaplain, a National Committee man and an atlernate National Committeeman are also to be elected. The election will take place at the final session on Sunday, August 20. Several speakers of national prominence are to appear on ine program. General Lewis B.I Hershey, director of Selective Service, will be unable to be present as originally planned, but he is sending Daniel O. Omer. general counsel of the Selective Service System as his representative. His talk will be on Friday afternoon, August 18. National Adjutant Henry H. Dudley, former Department Ad jutant of Nebraska, but now at national headquarters of the Legion in Indianapolis, will speak on the Sunday program. Governor Val Peterson, Chief Justice Robert G. Simmons, for mer State Superintendent Wayne O. Reed, and officials of the Veterans Administration in the state will appear at various times. Governor Peterson will address the joint session of the Legion and Auxiliary which will be held Friday morning, August 18. One feature of the convention will be the annual parade, sche duled for 3 o'clock Saturday af ternoon, August 19. A number of musical organizations have stat ed they will take part in the parade. It is understood there may be some mounted delega tions from some of the Legion districts, and some other unusual entertainment may be provided in the parade. The parade route will cover the principal downtown streets. The final session of the con vention on Sunday, August 20, will be the one providing most of the fireworks. In addition to the election of officers, the Res olutions Committee will report at that meeting, and there are ru mors that some "hot" resolutions will be presented. Historical Group Meet at Greenwood The Cass County Historical Society, of which Dr. G. H. Gilmore, of Murray is president, and Miss Barbara Genng, sec retary, are to enjoy a meeting out in the county on Wednesday, August 16th. The meeting for August is to be held at Greenwood, where the party will gather at the American Legion hall in that city at noon. A luncheon will be enjoyed and the program will be on "Greenwood and Vic inity and Early History." A most interesting time is antici pated by those interested in the early history of Cass county and eastern Nebraska. Returns from Idaho Trip Warren Tulene, who has been visiting in Idaho for the past several weeks, has returned home to this city. Mr. Tulene was at Boise, Idaho, the great er part of his stay, visiting his daughter, Mrs. George Iske and husband. He enjoyed the trip very much and reports that politics was hot in the state when he left, with the chief interest being the senatorial struggle between Sen ator Taylor and former Senator D. Worth Clark. The election is still in doubt. Howard Clark To Chicago Mr. and Mrs. Howard Clark departed this morning (Monday) for Chicago where they will spend a few days. Howard is to have a check-up at a hospital where he was operated on sev eral weeks ago for a back in'ury. He has been off of work as fore man of the maintenance of ways gang for the Burlington for the greater part of the year. It is hoped that he will be found in condition tor-resume his -work soon. Miss Mary Margaret Price of Kansas is visiting Miss Patri cia Thomas and her mother. Mrs. Maud Thomas. More than $21,000,000,000 worth of life insurance was sold to Americans in 1947. AVIATION ENGINEERS WORK KOREAN STYLE Eefore ade quate modern equipment was available, a small detachment of U. S. Army Aviation Enginers supervised Korean laborers in repairing this damaged runway. Supplies for the ground forces in the front lines were airlifted to this strip and then sent to their destination by truck and rail. Standing in the left foreground is Captain William Turner, in charge of the Engineers in this South Korean area, who directs tedious pick and shovel work. CARROTS COST LITTLE ( You don't need a gold mine to pay for building farm terraces, and they'll pay for themselves ( in extra crops within three years. H. O. Anderson, of the USDA Soil Conservation Service, savs it cost $4 to $5 per acre to build terraces on 42 Wisconsin farms in 1949. Thirty-six men used a county road grader, the others used their farm plow and trac tor. These days, private con tractors with their own equip ment also build many farm ter races. Experiments in Wisconsin have shown that crop yields are from 10 to 15 per cent higher on terraced than on nonterraced land. This yield difference is worth $2.75 per acre per year, declares Anderson, even at very moderate prices. "Even with no yield advantage the first year." he adds, "ter races will more than pay for construction costs of S5 an acre in only three years' time." He bases his claim on a 10 per cent increase in yields of 50 bushels of corn. 50 bushels of oats, and 2I2 tons of hay in a four-year rotation, all figured at "very moderate prices." Terraces should be planned and staked out by trained, ex perienced persons. If they're properly planned, well built, and given a little maintenance, he says, terraces will last indefi nitely. Driver School At University Plans are under way for an institute on advanced work in driver education and traffic safety to be held August 21 to 25 at the University of Nebraska Teachers college. The institute will be held in response to requests by driver education instructors for addi tional training, Freeman B. Decker, state superintendent of public instruction, said Thurs day.

Co-operating in the institute will be the state department of public instruction, safety patrol, traffic engineering department of roads and irrigation, Univer sity of Nebraska teachers college, the state department of Lincoln-Lancaster safety council- the state teafchers colleges, Nebraska State Education asso ciation and the Nebraska Con gress of Parents and Teachers. Milton B. Beckmann, University of Nebraska, is in charge of arrangements. SUFFERS INJURED HAND Harold Peterson. Omaha school instructor, who has been visit ing here at the home of his father-in-law.
