MONDAY, AUGUST 28, 1939. PAGE FOUR PLATTSHOUTH SEMI - WEEZLY JOUENAL Improvement of Tax Properties 1 is Encouraging Number of Purchasers Putting Their Places in Condition for Homes, Business or Eental Use At the present time there is going on considerable improvement and remodeling in a number of the houses sold at the last tax foreclosure sale on Julv 1. but none are receiving creater attention and expenditure than the one located near Ninth and Diamond, Just east of the home of E. G. Ofe. which was purchased by JIr. and Mrs. Ofe at the sale. The property is being completely overhauled and made modern in ev ery way, with new hardwood floors, arched openings, new plaster, paint, etc., as well as laundry room facili ties provided in the basement, and with a new cement sidewalk along the front of the property, around the house and leading to the garage at the rear of the lot. A new roof was one of the first things provided after they acquired the property, and on completion of the painting and other minor work remaining, this house will be one of the fine and attractive places of residence in the southern part of the city. Ira Clinkenbeard, another purchas er of property in the third ward, is also making considerable improve ment to the same, as is John Fitch, who bought a fifth ward property at the July 1st sale. Fred Lugsch, who acquired a Main street business building, is having plans prepared for extensive remod eling of the same as well as an ad dition extending back to the alley, which, when completed will provide him with very commodious quarters in which to carry on his business. There remains to be sold, due to error in the original sale notice, one property, known as the Rhoden home on Rock street, between 10th and 11th, which according to sheriff's sale notice now running in the Semi Weekly Journal, will be sold at auc tion one week from today Saturday, August 26, at 10 o'clock. This will wind up the sale of all properties on which court decrees have been ob tained. Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Shellenbarger, who bought the former Windham property on North Sixth treet from; the city at last Monday night's coun cil meeting (it having been foreclos ed some years ago, acquired by the county and later transferred to the city) also have quite extensive plans for making it into a home for them selves. Mr. Shellenbarger is an em ployee of the Lincoln Telephone and Telegraph company. All the properties go back on the tax list for the year 1939 taxes, after several years non-payment, and with the exception of the last named were sold subject to the unforeclosed 1938 tax, most of which was collect ed along with the bid price at the sheriff's sale. The former Oldenhausen property on the cemetery road, which was partially destroyed by fire several months ago, is another of the prop erties sold in the city's last fore closure sale that are being improved and made into livable homes. This property was purchased by Ilarve Manners, who is removing the sec ond story of the house and making it into a one story structure that will attract both renters and buyers. Although it has taken considerable money and a lot of time to effect the rebuilding, Mr. Manners expects to come out well on his investment, as have most of those who have purchas ed similar tax properties for invest ment purposes, to say nothing of those acquiring homes in this man ner. The return of a considerable num ber of these properties to the tax rolls and the building of new homes on lots disposed of by the city has brought Plattsmouth's assessed val nation well above the two million dollar mark for the first time in re cent years and at a time when as sessed valuations over the county have been steadily falling.

An exhaustive, 30-year study of moisture measurements in the semi arid plains shows, officials said, why the summer fallowing of wheat land is necessary to prevent evaporation of summer rains and conserve the moisture for fall seeding. The study from records kept at Harve. Mont.; North Platte, Neb.; Mandan, N. D., and Hays and Colby, Kas. disclosed that wheat usually draws all available moisture from the ground by harvest time leav ing it as dry as after several years of drouth. Odds Against Good Yield "This moisture must be renewed before another crop can be grown," the department said. "The dryland wheat farmer has not one chance in a hundred of a 20-bushel an acre yield if he seeds when the soil is dry. "The chances are about 70 out of 100 that his crop will be a failure (four bushels or less) if sub-soil moisture has not been restored. Even with three feet of moisture the chances are only 47 out of 100 of a crop of moret han 20 bushels to an acre." Even with summer fallow, officials said, there are parts of the Western Great Plains not suited to wheat, where the department is aiding farm ers to switch from 'wheat to grass and livestock. ,; Early Improvement Doubtful There is little likelihood of an Im provement in the moisture situation for many years, officials said. It is nuestionable. they said, w hether moisture ever has or ever will pene trate beyond the depth of roots in some sections. ?j "In creneral.'. Ihej-enort on the study said, "it may be said that un der sod or under continuous cropping to small grains, penetration of water to depths not reached by roots has been so rare and so limited at the stations under study that the addi tion of any appreciable quantity of water to the water table is a matter of centuries. "At Hacre, Colby, Hayes and on one field at Mandan it is question able whether water has ever pene tradted beyond the reach of wheat roots three to four feet and at North Platte this occurs only once in 10 years." COOL CONSERVES MOISTURE LINCOLN, Aug.- 24 (UP) Crop development was favored during the past week by cool weather and lack of wind helped conserve soil mois ture, U. S. Weather Observer W. F. Rumbaugh reported today in his weekly weather and crop bulletin. "Late corn" generally made good progress and , is in good condition depending on the pmount of mois ture available," Rumbaugh said. "Much drouth-damaged early corn . .1 was cut for fodder or snage ana early corn that survived the drouth is generally denting and making good progress.' STUDENT IS SKUNK CATCHER STILLWATER, O k 1 a.

Wheat Acreage for Coming Year Shows Increase County Increase Will Be From 30,039 Acres to 41,337 Acres Under the Farm Program. Europe buys less wheat. So does the rest of the world. But the Unit ed States, through the A.A.A. export subsidy program, maintains its" fair share of the world market. That is one reason farmers of Cass county will plant a larger acreage of wheat for 1940 harvest than they did for 1939. Here is the situation, as outlined by Alfred Gansemer. chairman of the county agricultural conservation committee, which administers the A.A.A. farm program: As a result of war scares and the efforts toward economic independence, many Eu ropean nations that once . Imported the bulk of their wheat now produce their own.' As a result, Europe buys from other nations a third less wheat than it did before 1927. The United States, determined that its wheat growers shall maintain their export trade, has1 an export subsidy pro gram and surprised the world last year by exporting 125 million busn- cls qf wheat, the largest amount since the period from 1925 to 1930. Wheat growers of the United States co operated in 1939 to grow only a lit tle more wheat than is needed an nually for domestic consumption. The export subsidy program has con- ributed to reduction of a wheat sup ply that a year ago reached alarm- ng proportions in the United States. As a result, Cass county's wheat growers, who in 1939 were asked to remain within a wheat acreage al- otment of 30,039 acres, may plant for 1940 harvest under the farm pro- ram a total of 41,337 acres, this county's share of a seven-million acreage increase in tne national al lotment. Anyone staying within the 190 wheat acreage allotment will be elig ible for wheat price adjustment pay ment, agricultural conservation pay ment on wheat, if other- allotments are not exceeded, wheat crop insur ance, and the wheat loss. If the 940 wheat acreage allotment is ex ceeded, crop insurance can be ob tained only upon the number of acres n the allotment, arid the producer will not be eligible for the wheat oan nor anypayment at'the wheat rate. Your community committee man win ne around to visit your farm within the next -week to solicit you for crop insurance and to sign a statement of intentions, as to wheth er or not you intend to stay within the 1940 wheat acreage allotment and wish your farm - measured for 1940 wheat price adjustment pay ment. . ...

ASK BIDS ON BINS WASHINGTON, Aug. 26 (UP) The agriculture department called for bids today for 13,750 steel grain bins with a storage capacity of 25,000,000 bushels of sealed corn for storage of loan corn turned over to . the Com modity Credit Corporation.

Lynn Blakely, Buffalo county supervisor who introduced the reso lution, maintained the treasurer has no authority "without an authoriz ation of the extension of the period of the payment." The 1937 bill provides for the allocation of $7,800,000 for all types of state relief over a two-year period. The bill expired July'l. The last unicameral session failed to provide an extension of the period of pay ment, Blakely said. The group threatened for a time to request a recall of the unicameral to consider the bill but the resolu tion was decided on before a vote could be taken on the recall.
