FAVORS FEW NEW LAWS
Hugh B. Ashmore, new member
of the legislature, living in Hayes
county, getting his mail at Palisade
in an adjoining county, farmer and
heretofore voting the republican
ticket, was hailed with acclaim by
many in the capitol Wednesday when
he said:
"I am a new member, ready to
learn, but it is my opinion that the
legislature should pass as few bills
as possible, but of course including
necessary measures and appropria
tions, and quit and go home and leave
the people alone."
Ashmore said he nad raised some
corn, between S and 12 bushels to
the a?re and that every farm in that
part of the state has a small pile of
corn produced in spite of the general
drouth. He will remain in Lincoln
from now on for the duration of the
legislative session, providing it does
not last too long.

Tremendous Uncertainties of 193G
May be Resolved, Says Prof.
H. J. Gramlich.
"Nineteen thirty-six is fast passing
into the Great Beyond," says Frof.
H. J. Gramlich of the agricultural
college. "To many it has been a year
of tremendous uncertainties. To the
livpernrk farmer in the corn belt it
has been exceedingly capricious. To-d.-y
this man is willing to forget that
which has been and is asking what
the future holds in store and what
may develop in 1937 of special inter
est to the livestock men.
"Agriculture in a sense may be
likened to a row of ten pins. Upset
one of the pins and the whole row
gets out of gear. Let nature rob us
of a crop, and the maladjustment
produces certain problems which are
difficult to surmount. Today the
western part of the corn belt stands
with a shortage of feed grains, due
to an exceedingly -dry season in 193 6
which was preceded by several years
but little better.
"Such factors have affected hog
production. Nebraska used to pro
duce about six million hogs per year.
About five million of this number
were farrowed in the spring. This
number has been decreased. The
average weight of hogs on the mar
ket has decreased. The corn-hog
ratio during the breeding season has
been relatively unfavorable. Some
what the same situation however
existed following the 1931 drouth.
Corn Crop Very Short.
"To fully comprehend what is
wrong with the hog business in Ne
braska, it is only necessary to re
member that while this state nor
mally produces a crop of 230 million
bushels of corn per year, it has pro
duced this year around 20 million,
a year ago 100 million and two years
ago 20 million. A history of the cli
mate of the state, tho, convinces me
that we will get more favorable
weather in the near future, and we
kuow that with one or two bumper
crops, we could quickly be long on
corn and short on hogs.
"Wiiat is the outcome for tue cattle
men? In the main, indications point 1
to a rather optimistic future. There
undoubtedly will be a shortage of
long fed cattle. Prices of these will
remain relatively high. I doubt, tho.
if they get to the record high which
was attained in the spring of 1935. It
would probably oe better for cattie
feeders, cattle raisers, packers and
consumers if the price of prime cattle
does not get above $14 during the
forthcoming year. This would be
$2.25 under the price for such cattie
in May, 1935.
"During the fall of 1936 the Tat
cattle market was on the boom. Be
tween the first of October and the
first of December an advance of ap
proximately $3 per hundred took
p'ace. Perhaps this stimulated put
ting cattle on feed. Those with but
limited corn supplies resorted to the
maximum use of substitutes. Many
v.ith silage have been feeding that
liberally, supplemented with a high
protein supplement and a rather lib
eral coating of molasses which is
available in large quantities and at
relatively low prices. I believe there
have been enough cattle put on feed
to prevent the tremendous gap which
occurrd in the late winter and early
spring of 1935. If such Is the case,
prices probably will be stabilized
around present levels rather than go
to new and dizzy heights.
"The sheep situation offers some
interesting aspects. The price of fat
lambs during the latter part of 1936
has remained relatively low and from
the feeder's standpoint disappoint
ing. The average price in Novem
btr was about $2 under that of No
vember, 1935. Numbers of sheep'
3eem sufficient but their location pre
sents another angle. The numbers are
located east of the Mississippi river
and will be a determining factor in
tie market. If these are rushed to
market early in the season, lambs

School Ready
in Sliort Time
To Occupy New $75,000 Building
When Second Semester Opens
on January 15th.
Eellevue, Neb., Dec. 28. Belle
vue's new 75 thousand-dollar public
school building will be ready for oc
cupancy when the second semester
opens January 15, according to Super
intendent of Schools Orrin A. Bell.
Both grades and high school will
move into the structure on that date,
under present plans.
One wing of the old building ad
joining the edifice will be retained.
There will be 18 classrooms, shops,
a homemaking department, a gym-j

a stage oy zv ieei.
The school system also is being
reorganized under the "6-6" plan cov
ering the 12 years of grade and high
sr-hool attendance. The seventh and
eighth grades will follow the regular
high school system of class schedules.
Two classes in homemaking will be
taught by Mrs. Ruth Greene, and two
classes of general shop work by Mr.
Bell. Both courses are registered as
required for freshmen and sopho
mores. The homemaking department is be
ing equipped on the "home style"
basis instead of being equipped with
the latest in modern equipment, the
board of education deciding it best
to fit it out with such equipment as
is found in the average home. The
same practical principles will be ap
plied to the courses, and the prepar
ation of economical dishes for the
average and low-income homes will
be given precedence.
Miss Bernice Weible, who has
served as grade school principal for
the past eight years, has been named
acting high school principal.
may work to a relatively high level
bv the time the western Nebraska
feed lots are ready to disgorge.
"With 1936 about gone, it seems
safe to say Nebraska will continue to
be a major livestock state. It will
be necessary, for man is an omni
vorous animal. He is much more in
terested in beef, pork and mutton
than he is in spinach and cauliflower.

Chicago. The total per capita
public debt in the United States
reached $314 at the end of June,
19S6, Mabel Newcomer, Vassar col
lege economist, told ihe American
Economic association. Miss Newcom
er, in a paper prepared for reading
at the afternoon session of the asso
ciation, said $200 of the debt was
owed the federal government, $100 to
local municipalities and $14 to the
state. The figures were net.
From the best available data,
which she said was inadequate as to
state and local debt. Miss Newcomer
fixed the net public deot in the Unit
ed States in 1936 at $40,344,000,000,
divided as follows: Federal, $25,- j
729.000,000; local. $12,792,000,000 ; j
state, $1,S23,000,000. At the end of :
1929. she said, the total net debt was if
$2S, 154, 000, 000. Miss Newcomer
pointed out that if the debts of for
eign governments to the United
States were included in recoverable
assets there would exceed 20 billions
for computation of the net debt.
