Weaver, who served as governor of Nebraska from 1929 to 1931, was born on a farm near Falls City, November 18, 1873. His parents were pio neer Nebraskans, having emi grated to the new state from Massachusetts in 1869. His fa ther, Archibald J. Weaver, was prominent in pioneering public affairs, serving as a member of the constitutional conventions of 1871 and 1875, as district judge, and as a member of con gress. After attending the public schools in Falls City, young Ar thur went to the University of Nebraska, receiving a bachelor's degree in 1895 and a law degree the next year. He returned to Falls City to begin the practice of law, but public activities and agriculture absorbed an increas ingly greater riortion of his time. He was city attorney for Falls City, 1899-1901, and Richardson county attorney, 1901-03. He served on the city council from 1910 to 1916, and was chairman of the committee responsible for much of Falls City's improve ments in pavement, sewage and lighting. Mr. Weaver's long participa tion in state affairs began with his election to the state House of Representatives, where he served from 1899-1901. He fol lowed in the footsteps of his fa ther with his election to the Nebraska Constitutional Con vention of 1920, and served as president of that body.

When the nw shoots on black raspberries reach 27 inch es in length they should be pruned. The purple canes can be pruned when they are 33 to 36 inches long. The horticultur ists advise cutting off about three inches of the tip. This stops length growth and boosts lateral growth. The horticulturists say the raspberry patch probably will need going over more than once because all of the shoots do not reach this length at the same time. Swine Need Salt When hogs go without salt for two or three months at a time, it should be fed with caution or salt poisoning and death are likely. That's a tip from Extension Animal Pathologist S. W. Al ford of the University of Ne braska. Dr. Alford said a small per cent of salt may be added to the'' slop or mixed feed, but it is impossible to satisfy the needs of each animal by this method.

If poured out on the ground, he says, hogs will find it and eat enough salt to poison them.

Hoary Cress, Leafy Spurge Time It's time to spray for hoary cress and leafy spurge in grain fields, say weed specialists at the University of Nebraska. Applications of one pound of 2, 4-D, preferably amine salt, prevents seed production of the wreed and reduces the stand. They advise two to three pounds of 2, 4-D per acre when there is a solid infestation of the weeds. Clarence Schmadeke, County Agricultural Agent BONER ON HOUSE PROVIDENCE, R. I.
