period when spraying should not be done That is during the blooming period After pollin ation is completed spraying can be done Without injuring the crop Because of the maturity of the weeds higher temperatures and lower humidity you may apply three-fourths of one pound ester per acre after pollination and expect good results If you have aerial spraying done insist that the operators use water as a carrier rather than oil Spray for Mosquitoes Mosquitoes will be more numerous Spraying vegetation around the house with DDT at the rate of one to two cups of 50 wet-table powder per gallon of ivater will help control them Indoors use a spray of pyrath-rum allethrln or combinations of these materials with methoxych-lor Repellents which can be purchased under various trade names can be used to protect individuals while out-of-doors Treat For Corn Borers Now Now is about the proper time to treat for corn borers if it is necessary Robert Roselle Extension Entomologist says that treating for corn borer the second week in August will probably be about the most effective time If more than 50 of the plants have egg masses or newly hatched borers treating is practical The treatment should be effective for about three weeks Second brood moths will be flying over a rather long period of time so it will payto watch the corn fields very closely Recommended Wheat Varieties Concho wheat is not a recommended variety for here It is a high yielder but it lacks in winter hardiness and is susceptible to stem rust Recommended varieties are Pawnee Ponca Bison Turkey and Nebred Hessian Fly Danger We stand a 50-50 chance of a serious Hessian fly outbreak in 1959 For control destroy completely the early volunteer or re-growth wheat at least 10 days prior to planting Then plant resistant varieties such aa Pawnee and Ponca after the fly-free date The average Hessian fly free-date for Thayer County is September 28 It could be a day or two either way depending on weather conditions Three

there the 4-H projects were on display and most certainly the crowds were there The 4-H Achievement Days gave the people In the communities a reason to get together Not only to view 4-H Club work but to visit with their neighbors and other friends 4-H projects were on display and were not being Judged one a-gainst the other Every member who brought In his or her project was given a ticket good for a treat at one of the stores or stands 1 In I three communities the activities were well planned people had every opportunity to see 4-H Club work that was being done in their communities it served as a rehearsal for the County Fair and it gave the people an opportunity to work on an activity together In every case it showed the interest in 4-H work In the community and showed the local 4-H leaders that their neighbors appreciate the fine job that is being done in training the boys and girls of the community Food for Hot Weather During these hot days you may want to change the traditional meal patterns and serve a dessert protein This will allow serving cool salads for a main course Baked custard supplies considerable protein because of the eggs and milk used in it For six individual baked

group of lenders on January 1 of this year according to A tide cashier ot the Nebraska Security Hank TMshler who represents the Nebraska Bankers Aw'n as Thayer County Key Banker During 1957 tfie state's banks maintained their leadership agricultural credit services Based on the 17th annual farm lending aummary of the Agricultural Commission of the Ameri-Banker1 Asa'n Mr Ude reported that at the beginning of the year Nebraska bankers were helping farmers and ranchers with $223809000 In loans 20 per cent more than a year previous This total inoluded 209679000 In production loans and $14130-000 In agricultural mortgages On the same date 113797000 in agricultural loans were held by Insurance companies 93443000 by Federal Band Banks $22009 000 by Production Credit and $9706000 nonreal estate loans plus $12875000 in real estate loans by the Farmers Home Administration It can be seen from these figures that more than 85 per cent of the production credit used by Nebraska farmers and ranchers came from Mr Ude said that "more and more the bank-s in Nebraska find that farmers and ranchers need a new type of credit to help finance the rapid increase in capital requirements To meet this changing need an increasing a--- mount of agricultural credit from Nebraska banks is on an intermediate-term repayment basis "Intermediate-term loans are most frequently needed for machinery and equipment livestock soil improvements additional land and refinancing short term notes Over one-half of all real estate credit is used to finance those intermediate-type capital expenses a further service to help farmers and ranchers improve their operations about one-third of all other bank agricultural loans have a repayment program longer than one year Banks serve farmers and ranchers with far more intermediate-term credit than any other group of Mr- Ude believes that ranches and bankers working together in this way make Nebraska agriculture more Mr Ude
