Drouth Committee
Says ‘No’ to Holt
County Not Stricken
Like Others
The state drought commit
tee at Lincoln, after inspecting
Holt county, generally agreed
that feed supplies in the county,
have been “materially affected"
by the recent drouth and corn
yields were “substantially be
low normal.”
However, it does not appear
that the general livestock feed
situation is nearly as critical in
Holt as in other areas, which had
been previously designated
drouth-stricken under public
law 875.
"It is felt that the local feed
supplies available in the county,
with proper utilization, are suf
ficient to permit farmers and
ranchers to carry through then
present livestock herds until
spring,” the committee declared
in a statement issued Wednes
oay through County Agent A.
Neil Dawes
Boyd county received a simi
lar report.
About a month ago the Holt
supervisors forwarded a request
to Gov. Victor Anderson urging i
that Holt be designated as a
disaster county.

Reimer to receive a $1,100 in-1
crease in his annual salary.
The new salary figure of $5,000
per year for the judge is fixed by

tion bracket. However, if the

fleets a decline in population the

downward for the remainder of

matter to the board with docu
mentary evidence showing Hol^ to
have 4,127 families. The families
average four persons.
