New School land V alues Fixed— The state board of educational lands and funds last week ap proved new land valuation sched ules for school land lease rental purposes in Holt and 35 other counties. In general the new valuations effective July 1. represent, a "hold the line" approach, according tc Board Secretary Elmer Mahlin. School land is valued in each county according to type and condition of the land and the use to which it is put. The valuation determines the amount of rent paid by the leaseholder. About one-third of the counties undergo revaluation each vear. To reach the new valuation* on the 36 counties reviewed this year, appraisers visited 1.957 leases and inspected 539,136 acres of land. Other counties reappraised in eluded: Cuming, Antelope, Boyd, Cedar 1 Knox, Madison, Pierce. Platte Stanton, Boone, Buffalo, Custer Dawson, Greeley, Howard, Mer- j rick, Sherman, Valley, Franklin Harlan, Kearney, Phelps, Chase Frontier, Furnas, Gosper, Hayes ; Hitchcock, Red Willow, Blaine Brown, Garfield, Loup, Rock and Wheller. | DrMMrv’C MORE OUAIITY FOR YOUR s xImMN fcllf GIFT DOLLAR WHEN ...

This article was written by Lonnie Breiner.) Land suitable for cultivation is divided according to the practices required for its continued safe and permanent use into four usabilitj classes I, II, III and IV, Class I land can lie cultivated' safely and permanetly without the use of any special practices or treatments. It is, of course, de sirable to use the ordinary good farming practices of the area; that is to keep up the fertility of the soil by proper elements such a* phosphorus and potassium as needed. Class II land requires one or more simple practices such as contour cutivation, strip cropping and the use of six! crops in the rotation if it is to ho cultivated safely. The common practices tv keep up fertility are necessary for maximum yields. Class III land requires intensive practices if it is to l>e kept in permanent cultivation. The pract ices required a tv the same as those for class II, but they tun'd to lie carefully and skillfully re looted and applied and there is greater need for soil crops in the crop roatation. Class IV land is suitable for occasional or limited cultivation but is primarily pas ture land. Such land may bo t<x> steep to terrace. Since stxi crops must be the chief means of pro tecting the soil, they must pro perly manage and renovated often enough to provide profitable graz ing by livestock and at the same time to control erosion. Methods of renovation also varv. They usu ally consist of breaking up the soil to some extent sometimes as much as to grow a corn crop on the contour supported by buffer strips of sod. Renovation usually includes liming, fertilizing and reseeding. Class VI land is suitable for maentn vegetation without spec ial practices This land is not more than slightly susceptible to deterioration from erosion or oth er causes Class VI ladn is suitable for permanent vegetation but is mod erately susceptible to deterorat ion even under permanent plant cover. Class VII land is highly suscep tible to deterioration and there fore requires severe restriction if used, in pasturing such land, great care must be taken to avoid putting on too many live stock, or keeping them there too long. Class VIII land is not suitable for cultvation or for the prudue* ton of permanent vegetation that may I*' harvested under grazing or woodland usage. I VALUES GALORE All Through the Store!
