County
Federal Government Acquires 16C
Acres Near Loup City Total
Purchased Up to 571.
L. A. White, rural rehabilitation
director for the Nebraska FERA, an
nounced purchase of 160 acres near
Loup City for development of anoth
er farmstead subsistence project. It
is the sixth in the state and brought
the total acreage purchased in Ne
braska to 571.
Ten homestead units with house;
barn, chicken shed and small acre
ages for Individual farmers will be
established this fall there, white
said. More may be possible, but
some of the land is uplands, fit only
for pasture and White said until
more complete surveys are made it
could not be determined whether ad
ditional units could be included.
The units will be irrigated from
wells and a community building for
a cannery or other small industrial
purposes to supplement the farmers
incomes probably will be built.
The state relief committee Is in
session at the capitol to make the
November allotments. Figures on
September show that every county
except Douglas put more than 50 per
cent of its relief load to work during
September. Douglas county, Haynei
said, made little progress that month
but in October was getting undei
way.
In September Nebraska's FERA
cared for 34,411 relief cases to some
extent of whom 6,244 were listed
as non-employable. Of the remain
der, 21,191 did work relief or about
two-thirds of the employable relief
cases. The Nebraska administratoi
said this gave Nebraska a high rank
ing, when the general average over
the nation was only about one
fourth of the relief cases at work.
With 5,000 Nebraska farmers al
ready obtaining feed thru federal re
lief agencies as a result of reduc
ing their livestock to ten animals
or less, three state relief officials
prepared to go to Kansas City for a
regional conference on the federal
feed purchasing program.
Rowland Haynes, federal relief ad
ministrator; L. A. White, rural re
habilitation director, and L. W.
Chase, director of the feed buying
program in Nebraska, will make the
trip. They will confer with repre
sentatixes of other states and Law
rence Westbrook, federal administra
tor in charge of drouth relief, about
present and prospective feed de
mands and policies in feed purchas
ing. Haynes said Nebraska has beer
purchasing feed only for farmers on
the ten unit or less basis who are
entitled to relief while in some
states purchases have been made for
all farmers. He said this state has
enough funds to continue to meet
the farmers' feed needs.
BOBBY AND THE SQUIRREL
Bobby sat on his grandfather's
knee,
Watching a squirrel skipping
with glee,
Frisking his bushy brown tail
in the sun,
While Bobby laughed and
thought it was fun.
He watched him scamper with
a nut.
To the roof of an old log
rickety hut,
Sinking his teeth into the
hull,
To get the kernel while there
was a lull.
Little Bobby leaned over the
rail
To get a view of its soft
brown tall.
When old Touse soon sniffed
the air,
Chasing the squirrel into its
lair.
The squirrel then turned and
barked at Touse,
Thinking he surely could
arouse.
The squirrels in the neighbor
hood or those passing by.
To drive Touse away, he hoped
they would try.
Soon, old Touse with his tail
between his legs.
Sneaked away home and hid
behind the kegs.
While Bobby cuddled down on
his grandad's lap,
And soon sank away in his
afternoon nap.
