Smith, chairman of the co unty Savings Bonds Committee, says. "This broadening of the eligi bility of those who can buy U.S. Savings Bonds is a boon to or ganizations, clubs, unions, groups even businesses," Smith said. "This means that; if these organizations or firms have money to invest they can buy U.S. Savings Bonds up to the annual limitation." The Treasury broadened the eligibility in order to fill a gap in the Savings Bonds Program which was created by the dis continuance of sales of Series J and K Savings Bonds. Since that time, small investor groups, other than individuals, have not had available to them any Gov ernment security with guarante ed protection against market fluctuations. The Treasury has had a con siderable demand for securities of this type from a large number of institutional groups such as labor unions, fraternal, cHlc, .service, patriotic and veteran organizations, eleemosynary in stitutions and local and stale government bodies. Now, anyone who was eligible to buy Series J and K Savings Bonds, when they were on sale, will.be eligible to buy Series E and H Bonds, within a $10,000 limit per year for each series. Series E Bonds accrue interest at the rate of 3-34' per annum, (compounded semi- annually) when held 7 years and 9 months to maturity, with a somewhat lesser rate of interest if redeem ed before maturity. Seires H are ksued at par and mature at par and pay interest by check semi annually with rates comparable to the E Bonds on early redemp tion. Series H Bonds pay 3-3i interest if held lor their full 10 years to maturity.

Dave Williams, University of Nebraska Extension animal hus bandman, says equipment for raising a beef calf should be adequate but simple. Housing for animals should be simple and comfortable. Housing is needed to protect animals Irom winds and storms in the winter and provide cool shade for summer. It should be well-ventilated around the year, yet free from drafts. Housing may consist of a shed or a stall in a barn. Sheds should be open to the south or south and east. When stalls are provided in a barn, the struc ture should be weft ventilated, yet free from drafts. A tightly closed barn would be damp and unhealthy for livestock, the spe cialist points out. ' Sheds and stalls in 'barns should be kept clean and 'dpy around the year. Straw may be used for bedding during winter months, but a 4 to 6 inch layer of sand is adequate during sum-j mer. There also is a need tor an exercise lot next to the cattle shed or barn. Since 4-H club members often feed in lots of 10 calves or less, an exercise, lot 40 ft. by 50 ft. would provide en ough space. If the lot is too large, the calves may run more than they should and may be cVime hard to catch, nervous and even wild. By the samoiivr M CL-..U token, if the lot is too small, the VVnen JIIUUIU calves will not get the exercise they need. The lot should be! well-drained since calves do not do well in muddy lots. Feeding equipment needs will depend somewhat upon the type of feeds to be fed. When feed ii.;., chopped hay, grain and hay c?n be fed from the same feed Luuk built 18 inches above the ground. If loose hay is fed, 4-H club members should provide an additional hay rack. It is desir able to locate both feedbunks and hay racks in the shed out of the weather or covered if locatcd outside. A mineral box also should or! placed inside tne snea oi staii.i box 12 inches square and 6 inches deep is adequate for sev eral calves. Mineral supplement and salt should be kept before calves at all times, according to Williams. There also is a need to provide fresh drinking water everyday. A trough should be located so t V'uSn f, tho wpt! that if it overflows the water i will drain away rapidly to pre vent forming mud holes in the exercise lot.

Clinton Hoover, Extension agronomist at the College of Ag riculture, noted that many farm-1 ers prefer early spring treat-i ment with nitrogen over apph r!,tjnn in thp fall "The wheat grower can better estimate in the spring the need for nitrogen fertilizer based on 1 nitrogen deficiency symptoms and the moisture supply afte the crop has started to grow in the spring. In addition, high pro tein is more likely to result from spring treatment than from fall treatment," the University soils : i However, Hoover continued. there are certain advantages in applying nitrogen fertilizer in the fall. They include: ! A generally greater supply; of fertilizer in the fall, making; better buys possible. More time available to apply fertilizer plus generally favor able soil conditions for applica- tion. On soils of very low fertility, fall-applied nitrogen will usually improve stands, stooling and early growth. "When nil nitrntrpn is nnnlirrt in uie lan. it snouia De applied either before or after the drill not placed with the seed," Hoov er advised. This ls desirable because too much nitrogen placed in contact with wheat seed can seriously re- ?Hce Rumination if dry soil con ditions prevail for some time after seeding, he concluded.

Cattle Grub Control Can Be Applied Now LINCOLN Cflttlcmen can treat livestock for the control of cattle grubs between now and Nov. 1, but early treatments likely will be most effective. Robert E. Roselle, University ot Nebraska Extension entomo- logist, says cattle grubs can be controlled with trolene boluses or co-ral sprays. If sprays are used, it is essential that a thor ough application be made at high pressure with the nozzle close of not reach the skin, it will not be effective, Roselle points out. Feed containing ronncl addi tive is on the market and is registered for use against cattle grubs. If this is used, cattlemen should follow the directions on the label. Roselle says that pour-on treatments with ruelene were s material will be available " - oi . uiu w vs - ern Nebraska this fall.
