(Special) This nation is achieving some thing this year that no other nation In history has ever ac complished or even approach ed. For the first time our gross national product is exceeding the rate of $500 billion a year, or half a trillion dollars. This is the value of all goods and services produced in the coun try. A speaker before the Confer ence on World Tensions in Chi cago recently said that foreign aid given ' by Russia to under developed countries is "not nec essarily to be deplored, either from the standpoint of the re cipient countries or that of the free world." I do not believe most Amer icans would agree with that statement. While a communist may proclaim himself an agrar ian reformer, a trader or a humanitarian, he is first and foremost a dedicated commun ist. Russia uses trade and aid to subvert an Intended victim. Saying that communist aid is good for a nation is like telling a mouse that the cheese In the trap is really good for him be cause It is so nourishing. Building industry experts now predict 1.2 million housing units new homes and apartments will be built this year, making 1960 one of the best home-construction years on record. One hundred years ago last week Abraham Lincoln was nominated a tthe Republican Presidential Convention in Chi cago. Nebraska then a terri tory was allotted six votes. On the three ballots, only one of Nebraska's votes went to Lincoln. But after Lincoln re ceived the necessary votes on the third ballot, Nebraska and many other delegations jumped on the bandwagon and voted the entire delegation for the Il linois lawyer. limit for the filing and presenta tion of claims against said estate is September 12th, 1960; that a hearing will be had at the Coun ty Court room in Plattsmouth on September 16th, 1960 at ten o' clock a.m. for the purpose of examining, hearing, allowing and adjusting all claims or objec tions duly filed. Dated May 24th, 1960. (SEAL) Raymond J. Case County Judge No. 4827 May 26, June 2, 9, 1960. State Came Bird Populations Are Down to Average LINCOLN, Major game bird populations are down to just a bout average this spring, re ports the Nebraska Game Com mission. Results just in from a state wide spring mail carrier count show a decline in spring popu lations from last year, although pheasants are still above the eight-year average and quail are right on the line. Reports are still not complete on prairie grouse. The indicated spring popula tion of 12.7 pheasants per 100 miles of route traveled is still higher than the 11.7-bird aver age of 1953-1960, although down an estimated 24 per cent from last year. Bobwhite counts were only slightly lower than those of 1958, an exceptional year of quail populations. Although down some 63 per cent from last year's peak figures, the counts correspond closely to 1958 s 1.1 birds per 100 miles. This year's is .9 birds. Almost 700 rural mail carriers in all parts of the state partici pated in the counts. .The U.S. is selling India 17 minion tons of government -owned surplus wheat and rice during the next four years for $1.3 billion, to be paid in Indian rupees. Most of the money will be loaned or given back to In dia for development purposes. The 587 million bushels of sur plus wheat involved is about half our annual production. While I heartily applaud the sale of these stored surplus crops, I wish most of the pro ceeds were going to the U.S. Treasury to pay off part of the national debt. The Air Force has ordered development of a piloted space ship called the Dyna-Soar. The ship will be sent into orbit by rocket but will re-enter the earth's atmosphere and land under the control of a human pilot. Test flights are not expected until 1964. First U. S. rocket to be sent into outer, space with a man aboard is expected this year. This first flight will be aboard a rocket sent perhaps 100 miles up, with the rocket returning immediately to earth and the pilot being ejected within a few miles of the earth's surface. The blister beetle is approp riately named. The insect se cretes a poisonous oil called cantharidln, which can raise blisters when crushed against human skin. Small quantities of cantharidin have been used for centuries in lovo potions. Grain Bins Can Be Readied Now LINCOLN Now is the time to" prepare grain bins for the 1960 wheat crop. "Preventing insect and rodent infestations probably is more important than most wheat growers realize," said Robert E. Roselle, Extension entomol ogist at the College of Agricul ture. "To prepare grain bins, they must be cleaned thoroughly in side and out. This can be done best with a vacuum cleaner. All grain and grain debris must be removed." "After cleaning, rodent-proof the grain bin, repair all damac ed portions of the structure, and spray inside and out," Roselle suggests. Here are some chemicals that can be used in grain bins: Malathion, 57 per cent pre mium grade liquid concentrate, at the rate of 1 gallon to 2b gal lons of water; Methoxychlor, 50 per cent wettable powder, 1'2 cups to 1 gallon of water; ,Pyrenone, follow package directions .
