AUBURN, Neb.-0ur showing off from the Nebraska City
landing entaied the same risk We had encountered In trying
to put in. The barge was still just below the landing and the
current, thrown to that side by dikes, was unusually strong
at that point.

and fast before the canoe finally
swept around the rne Of the
barge into clear water. and on
down past the barge works and
the city sewer. Fishing must be
good at the mouth Of sewer out
lets. for there must have been two
score people squatting on the bank
near the big ditch that dumped the
city's sewage into the Missouri.
We had experienced the aroma
from that ditch the day before and
were glad the wind was blowing
from US to IT today. We were
thankful that our kind hosts had
warned us about buying any cat
fish while In Nebraska City. Ac-
cording TO them, most of the fish
sold In town came from the mouth
of this outlet and were just a bit
tainted.
sand Bars Covered
This was another section Of the
river where a good deal of work Is
being done to harness the Big
Muddy into a maintained channel.
Much of the work that had gone
on before had been either swept
out by the ice or badly damaged
by the pounding Of the high spring
floods. The valley was about eight
miles wide and the government
was trying to keep the river almost
In the center In a series Of 81
bends.
For miles on either side there
was nothing but willow : covered
sand bars. Farmable bottomlands
were low, and. because these we're
flooded each spring, their vegeta-
ton was light. That Is n OF the
big difficulties the government
engineers are having now; holding
the river In check and at the same
time protecting the lands OF the
along IL rlFti.
n. Peck Won't Hrip
Heretofore. according to the
farmers, they experienced bad
floods In the spring only about
once in every six or seven years.
and those were actually beneficial
because Of the layer Of rich silt
left by the river. Now. with the
river partially in check. they claim
they are flooded out every spring
and are unable TO realize any In
come from their bottomland hold
ings. The engineers III frankly
puzzled over this new dilemma
and are seeking a way around II.
II was thought that Fort Peek
would have some bearing on river
control, but. situated as II IL, II
controls only a comparatively

Captain Takes DIP
Apparently we were expected.
for one OF the mates met US NJ we
boarded and seemed to know all
about us. He promptly invited us
10 lunch and inssmuch N II was
only eleven o'clock, he showed us
over the great ship. He told w the
captain had planned to do this, but
he usually spent an hour or no In
the mornings swimming In the
river and the mate pointed far out
by the discharge pipe. where we
could see a mans head bobbing In
the current.
His presence In that swirlinE
water seemed 10 more or leW re-
flute some Of the terrifying stories
we had heard about what this river
does TO ever strong swimmers.
The captain has done that sort OF
thing all his life, and, according To
him. he has never been In trouble
from either eddies or w~hirlpools.
Real River Man
The captain came aboard just IN
time for lunch. a rather young
man, Drowned by the sun. and q
perfect host. Recognizing the name
of Geisler from our resrsrch IN
river history, we questioned him
about his family.
Like most OF the other river

 The grown-up season in your garden-and you have time at last to spruce up shrubbery, trees, lawn with Q little simple care!
 Decorative evergreens - yews, hemlock, arborvitae--need shearing in midsummer to prevent shaggi- ness. Privet hedges may be clipped square or round at the top-A in our diagram. And all types of hedg- es will fill out better if you cut them as shown in diagram wider at bottom tB) than at top.
 Do you have wisteria reluctant to bloom? A summer pruning of rampant shoots will help your wis., teria to bloom next season.
 Are trees damaged by summer storms? Cut off jagged ends, treat the exposed wood with special tree paint.
 Lawns? Tn dry weather raise the bottom blade of the mower and cut the grass less often. Put off wa tering as long as you can, then do f 1t thoroughly.
 Find more helpful pointers on trees, shrubs. lawns, vines in our 32-page booklet by well-known horticulturist. Also tells how to raise and care for annuals, peren- nials, herbs. bulbs, roses. Advises you on soils, fertilizers, checking pests, diseases.

VACATION EQUIPMENT
 IMPORTANT

Up-to-date beach and water equipment makes vacation days com- fortable and lots of fun. Youngsters, of course, get more kick out of huge inflated water animals than any thing else, or one of the new boat shaped floats of heavy bright red and blue rubberized fabric to paddle about in shallow water. Beach par asols, as colorful as can be. are "musts." Beach rolls come in many sizes and as many bright colors, some with light rattan headrest frames. If you like to float. you might include six-foot inflated reclining pad complete with fat pill low. On the beach, this can be con- verte into a comfortable chair by simply buckling side straps at tor and bottom thus raising the pad to a sitting position.
