Starting Fight
on Army Worms
and Chinch Bugs
Ounce of Prevention Is a Popular
Ingredient on Nebraska Farms
Survey Made.
Employing the old axiom that "an
ounco of prevention is worth a pound
of cure," O. S. Bare, extension ento
mologist at the Nebraska college of
agriculture, has begun plans for pest
control work in 1935. The early ap
pearance of western army cutworms
in one southwestern county and the
possible invasion of chinch bugs in
some eastern counties causes him to
emphasize the importance of control
work to Nebraska farmers.
Weather conditions this winter for
chinch bugs in Nebraska have been
ideal, and an almost perfect survival
is expected. A favorable spring is al
most certain to result in trouble.
A survey last fall showed a threat
ening situation in Douglas, Sarpy,
Casi and Saunders counties and the
same situation wa3 found in small
sections of Dodge and Butler. Light
and scattered infestations were dis
covered in Washington, Lancaster,
Otoe, Nemaha, Richardson, Pawnee,
Johnson, Gage, Jefferson, Saline,
Seward, York, Filmore, Thayer and
Nuckolls counties.
Early appearance of western army
cutworms in southwestern Nebraska
and quickened interest in control
work of the pest, according to the
entomologist. Several western coun
ties experienced trouble with the pest
last year, and in the past it has
caused serious damage to alfalfa,
sweet clover and small grain In var
ious counties thruout the state. Poi
soned bran is used in control work.
Regarding pocket gophers, eight
een counties have scheduled control
work. A prepared mixture of strych
nine, soda and saccharine is used in
controlling the pest. Farmers in the
western half of the state probably
will bo interested in knowing that
E. T. Winter, secretary of the Ne
braska Farm Bureau federation, will
have a carload of poisoned oats for
prairie dogs In that section. The
bait is prepared by the LU. S. biolog
ical survey, following the formula
Used so successfully by Bare and
agricultural agents in Sheridan and
Dawes counties in 1933.

U. S. Treasury Plans a New System
of Financing to Lower the
Cost of Credit.
Washington. While tallying up
with one hand a $333,894,104 in
crease in seven months in its tax in
come over a corresponding period in
the last fiscal year, the treasury
drafted with the other a new device
for its borrowing system.
The monthly statement by the bu
reau of internal revenue disclosed
the January collections sxs $194,
365, G50, in comparison with ?184,
404,924 in January, 1934. This
brought the fiscal year's total to $1,
731,844,578 as against $1,397,950,
474 in the fiscal year 1934.
Meanwhile, taking advantage of
easy money market conditions, Sec
retary Morgenthau announced nine
month bills would be added to the fi
nancing program of the government.
Hereafter, the treasury will issue
weekly $50,000,000 of 273 day bills,
to be sold on a discount basis to the
highest bidder, in addition to a sim
ilar amount of similar six months
paper. The first issue under the new
program will be dated Feb. 27. "It
is a move to obtain money for the
government at a lower rate of inter
est," he said.
Internal revenue collections for
January included a boost in income
tax receipts. They were $6,470,476
over last January while the cumu
lative figure showed an improvement
of $110,215,180 in this form of rev
enue. The month's liquor taxes were $3,
974,188 higher than last year, due
almost entirely to distilled spirits
and to beer. The seven months re
ceipts were $119,634,294 higher
than in 1934. Beer returned $122,
397,310 In the latter period, as com
pared with only $83,680,72S last
year.
Miscellaneous taxes which Presi
dent Roosevelt wants continued,
yielded $11,293,367 in January and
$72,3S4,394 in the seven months
period, while manufacturers' excise
taxes also expected to be contin
ued brought in $25,845,747 in the
month and $193,398,903 thus far in
the year.
Announcement of the financing of
fering revealed the treasury will not
ask for any new money on March 15,
quarterly financing period of the
government. By borrowing 100 mil
lions weekly while maturities are
ony $75,000,000 weekly, the secre
tary said that 325 millions in new
money would be raised within the
next three months, which, together
with the present huge cash balance
of more than $2,100,000,000 would
be adequate for cash needs.

Estimate Ten
Million are Now
Unemployed
Unofficial Figures Are Given in Re
port Issued on Survey of Var
ious Lines cf Industry.
An estimate of the number of un
employed the first such compilation
since President Roosevelt took office
Monday placed at 10,830,000 the
number out of work In December,
1934.
This disagreed by half a million
with the conclusion by the Ameri
can Federation cf Labor that 11,
329.000 persons were' unemployed at
that time.
The figures were released at Wash
ington without public comment as
part of a 6S-page report on the oper
ation of the national recovery act.
They were attributed to the national
emergency council, but officials said
they should be taken as a somewhat
informal presentation, not official.
Month-by-Month.
The table in the report covered un
employment month-by-month from
January, 1930, through December,
1934. Such detailed figures have
never before been published by the
government, officials said.
The council figures showed that
since December, 1930, the number of
persons in the United States avail
able for employment has increased
1,678,000 to a total of 50,426,000.
The gain resulted from the normal
increase in population.
The estimates showed a slight gain
in employment for December over
November.
A Further Gain.
Officials said they believed the
emergency council data for January,
1935, would show a further gain.
January Federation of Labor fig
ures also show an improvement over
December.
The council's statistics were that
the peak of unemployment in the de
pression was 13,597,000 in March,
1933, and that a decrease of 2,767,
000 has been made in the number of
unemplo3"ed during the Roosevelt
administration. The total number
put back to v.crk was estimated at 3,
536.000. The best month since March, 1933,
according to the council's tables, was
October, 1933, when the unemployed
totaled 9,684,000. h

nection with this article. The dif
ferent members of the club have pro
duced some excellent manuscripts
throughout the year that many peo
ple and clubs enjoy reading.
The next meeting will be with
Mrs. Druecker. Mrs. Albert Young
leader. The club expressed their re
grets that one of their members, Mrs.
Fred Hild was in the hospital. The
manuscript on "Characteristics of an
Ideal Father," follows:
I think most of we mothers And
it is quite natural thing for the
father of our children to shift most
of the discipline of these charges up
on our shoulders. I am quite sure
it is not done for lack of interest In
his child or children. It is mostly for
the reason that in his very young life
the child Is constantly under the
care of the mother, and naturally she
13 forced to begin this business of dis
cipline when father doesn't realize
there 13 a need for such, as yet. I
think father and mother should try
and establish a sort of set rule and
abide by it most faithfully, when
father sees need for discipline, moth
er must not interfere especially in
presence of the child, but they must
talk the matter over privately and
the came If mother is doing the cor
recting. Nevertheless this of one
sided affair, does not help us from
thinking that we want to try and
help, him to be an ideal father for
our child or children.
To me the first in line of the ideal
father is the best possible inheritance
of health, of course fathers in this
present generation had not the op
portunity to learn of this as school
boys. If they had, our children of
today might be healthier and happier.
I think father should show the ut
most interest In the little experiences
which our children bring home to us
each day from school. Naturally,
they know mother is very interested
in each little event that takes place
durnig the day and when they find
father is just as interested I think it
brings about greater expression of
confidence in relating Instances
where oftentimes it Is quite difficult
for the child to express and then
father and mother in privacy can
work out the best possible plan to
handle these affairs, if they need
careful consideration.
I think in most of our homes, or I
will say, a great deal of them, moth
er represents the religious and social
head of the family, to me an ideal
father in this Instance is one who
feels it his duty to his family, to
arise Sunday morning, take part in
the hurry and bustle of the family
and head the line when they arrive at
the church, and take hi3 part in the
religious services of the day, thereby
setting an example for his children
to carry with them as they grow to
manhood and womanhood. It will be
such an established custom it won't
seem right for them not to do the
same. The same for the social life.
I think father should be just as in
terested in affairs for the betterment
of a community as we know mothers
always are, and in all activities which
stand for the better things in life.
I think it is a very wonderful thing
when the children can regard "Dad"
not just as dad, but a real pal, one
whom they can feel they can bare
their whole heart when they are. so
depressed that nothing seems to
count, one who seems to understand
all difficulties and who always has a
solution for these, that seems to me is
more than just thinking of father aa
being the financial aid of the family.
Unlucky indeed is the boy or girl
who has been deprived of the guid
ance and compionship of a father.
or I'll add here also a mother, for no
one understands childish woes as
does mother and da, nor when the
problems cease to be childish, no one
can still fill their place.
This is Just a few facts which to
me seemed to be Included in the char
acteristics which I considered of an
ideal father, or course we all vary
in our opinions and we each would
have to sort of work out our own
solution which to us would be ideal
fathers.
