CARRIER JOB OPEN CHAMBERS—The civil service commission has announced an examination will be conducted to fill a rural mail carrier vacancy at the Chambers postoffice. In formation is available at the postoffice. No Federal Drought Relief Contemplated Representatives of the conser vation service of the department of agriculture and the Nebraska drouth committee made a survey of several counties in Ne braska to see if they should be included in the drouth disaster area. But the answer from the USD A is no. Holt, Wheeler, Garfield, Val ley, Greeley, Thayer and Loup were among those under con sideration, but only the south west portion of Holt was con sidered in distress. Serious wheat crop losses from wind erosion have occurred in Kimball, Cheyenne and Box Butte counties. Many cattle ranchers in the Burwell area have been forced to sell off stock, even foundation herds. An optimistic note was sounded by the report of the state-federal division of agricultural statistics showing more subsoil moisture in wheat lands in western Nebraska this year than last, according to Rep. A. L. Miller (R.-Nebr.) Members of the Nebraska dele gation have urged the secretary of agriculture to cut redtape to release cheap feed to ranchers in the emergency area. “Those of us who have lived in the ranch country for many years also know how the pastures can recover with two or three good rains,” Miller said. A University or Nebraska sur vey reveals that nearly 1.4 mil lion acres are now irrigated in Nebraska. About 64 percent of this total, or 882,739 acres are in the Fourth congressional district. An estimated 940 irrigation wells were put down in the Fourth dis trict last year, and more than 268 thousand new acres have been brought under irrigation in the past four years, the congressman included.
