10 LET THE BOYS AND GIRLS DO CANNING Government Expert Gives Most In- teresting Talk on Preserving to Omaha Women. 'WAS AT Y. M. C. A. LAST NIGHT That a mere man could teach them a thing or two about the purely fem- inine art of canning vegetables was fully conceded by a large number of women at the Saratoga school yester- day morning, when George E. Farrell, government expert, gave a demon- stration of the work. This demon- stration {s the finishing touch to the local Garden club’s summer contest, under the supervision of E. BE. Dale., Another demonstration was given at Castéllar school at 3 o'clock, and the last one was held last night at 8 o'clock at the Young Men's Chris- tian association. “Let the boys and girls do the canning,” advocates Mr. Farrell, opening up a wide i vista of thought to the many mothers present. “So many of you women hanker to do soclal service work. Insteal of that, take four or five boys and girls, direct their energies towards ralsing a garden @Guring the summer and then show them how to can their ‘ruits and vemetables. You will be doing real service then.’ he maid. “There are 8,000 vacant acres in the city of Omaha. On these there could be rafsed enough garden produce to feed the whole ecity.

The prisoner told his story so plain- tively that the soft-hearted judge sent him on his way, with the advice that some other medicine be used fIn th future. State Contractors Take Interest in the |so mves Organization Plan Since the agitation for a state asso- clation of bullding contractors has been started contractors all over the state have been taking a keen interest. While no definite date tor the preliminary meeting has yet been set, it is tentatively announced that a dinner for organization purposes is to be set within a week or two, The plan contemplates an organisa- tion in which contractors, construction men, material dealers and architects would be eligible. It is felt by the con- tractors that since all those allled crafts and trades are so closely associated In their business relations, there should be an organized relation for effective work. | The plan s to do away with some | abuses thal the contractors and archi- tects claim to be now suffering from ocoasional unscrupulous property owne ers who use them against one another In the matter of getting plans and bide for a bullding, and then go ahead with the work without letting the job or the contract to any of the men who have figured on it The plan contemplates also the estab- lishment of an information bureau, a collection bureau and a legislative com= mittes that would take active and or- #anized steps to get what legislation the members may desire in the state, in- stead of allowing each individual to! flounder around the state house in the aimless and ineffective fashion that is always the result where there is no or- ganization. Mel Sheppard and New York Athletes Go Through Omaha Melvin W. Sheppard, who holds the world's records at 500, 600, 700, 800, 900 and 1,000-yard distances, and now coach at | the Millrose Athletic club in New York, passed through Omaha piloting five of his erack athletes to the athletioc games at the San Francisco exposition. Shep- pard and his crew arrived at 7:20 over the Northwestern and left over the Union Facific at 11:66, It was Sheppard's original plan to stop over here until 4:20 and give his men a few hours' practice, but the rain made his plans impossible, so he took the ear- ller train to the coast and will stop off at Salt Lake City and give his men a work-out there. Sheppard declares that his five men will all be point winners at the exposi- tion. And if they are, considerable crodit must go to the former amateur record holder, as his athletio club is limited to men employed by John Wanamaker. to this establishment, and'to five men who are good enough for international competition in one plant is quite a feat. The Milirose athletes are John Cahill, welght man; Willle Kyronen, five-mile A. A. U. champion; Charles Pores, mara- thon runner; Nick Giannokopolis, mara~ thon runner, and Joe Higgins, (%0-yard New England Intercollegiate champion. Coach Alonso Stagg and five Univer- sity of Chicago men also went through Omaba to the exposition games. {shalled into the flelds, ROMANCE OF PLOW AT TRACTOR SHOW Show the Transition from In- dian Methods.

These possibilities will be developed in u big open alr drama covering a period of three days, on the fields north of Fremont Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 11, 12 and 13. It will'take from 80 to 100 Winnebago Indians, and thousands of dollars’ worth of other equipment, to stage this great drama for the moving ple- tures.

[ sweeping review of the development of the Nebrasku prairie from the savage Indian and his hunting grounds to the modern tractor plowing and power farm- Ing system of agriculture, A love plot is to be interwoved. In the swift march of agricultural development, as it will be reproduced here for the movies, the Indians will be seen hoeing their squaw corn with orude hoes made of clam shells and bison bones. Next will be seen the homesteader, coming in with his prairie schooner, and ox team, metting to work with the help of his brave young bride, to bulld a sod houss and later a log house. This settler will be seen plowing with his wooden moleboard plow in the stubborn prairie sod. Then comes more settlers, and later the house is Introduced and the oxen are discarded. Then comes the steel moleboard plow, which s o great innovation and a welcome inven- tion. By this time the Indiane have dis- appeared from the scene, better homes and barns have sprung up in the com- munity, Next the gang plow Is mar- Again the lapse of a few years, and the farm tractor comes chugging upon the scene. Gang plows with almost counless bottoms will be drawn. Monaters of Steam and Gasoline. The soll that once yielded reluctantly and sullenly to the infinite toll of the squaw and her clamshell hos, now gives way, surrenders completely, and Is thrown in riotous confusion by the power- ful monsters of steam and gasoline. As a grand climax of the three days' drama, as an {llustration of the masterly efficlency of modern methods of agrioulture, the ‘elghty tractors that will be giving demonstrations during the week, will be marshalled upon the big fleld one behind the other, with endless gang plows trafling. When the word Is given, cighty engines will begin to sputter, elghty steel ribbed monsters, spitting hot steam and gas fumes, will clank into the harness. Ten thousands tons of sod will yleld, be torn from the bosom of mother earth, churned into new position, preparatory to receiving the seeds for another orop. For one hour and a half this march of the steel brigade will con- tinue. And In that one and & half hours, Nebraska Better Than California, Say:;EE.
