Cass County Extension Notes LESSON LEARNED IN 4-H PAYS OFF Its another story of success, which are easy to find. In this case its not the glamour of a purple ribbon calf or pig, but instead a job of soil conserva tion work accomplished by a 16- year-old rugh school boy, a trac tor, and a mold board plow. Its a story worthy of mention. Tom my Livingston of Louisville, son of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Living ston built several hundred feet of field terraces unassisted in the spring of 1952 after school. The only thing that worried Tommy was that corn planting might be delayed. But they were built in time and approved by the critical eye of the SCS boys. June 21, after a heavy rain shower the night before, found Tommy out checking the ter- LAMB AUCT CASS COUNTY POOR 114 Acres, more or less, on gravel road - MONDAY, JULY 21st - 2:00 P.M. - At The Premises t i Location: V2 miles west of Plattsmouth on Cemetery Road Legal Description: The NE14 of the SE14 of Sec. 15, Twp. 12, N, Rge 13 E; the NWU of the SW4 of Sec. 14, Twp. 12 N, Rge 13 E; and the of the NW4 of Sec. 14, Twp. 12 N, Rge 13 E, except a tract described as follows: commencing at the NE corner of the SW'i of the NW!i of said section, thence running west 700 feet, thence running south 350 feet, thence running east 700 feet, thence running north 350 feet to the place of beginning and containing 5.63 acres, more or less; all in Cass County, Nebraska. 55 Acres corn; 23 All land in High State to purchaser.

The smile on his face when he returned was evidence enough that they performed OK. I saw that smile while I waited to ear-tap the 4-H beev es. I never saw a bigger smile by any livestock showman. The facts are Tommy learned how to build terraces as a 4-H club member during field day work outs the boys have held the past three years. To have hired the terraces built would have cost $300 or more. He is a member of the "Atomic Farmers 4-H Soil Conservation Club."
