With snow cover and ice conditions as they are now throughout the eastern portion of the stae, floods similar to those in the .spring of 19(50 are likely to occur. Much will de pend on spring weather and the speed with which the snow goes out. Heavy equipment including four bulldozers are standing by in Lincoln if dike work needs to be done. Three pumps for clear ing the water from basements are also ready. A host of boats complete with motors and trail ers for quick movement, are ready for emergency use. Conservation officers are keeping close watch on water conditions Li their respective areas. The entire department is geared io go into immediate ac tion with personnel, equipment and two-way radio communica tion upon request of Civil Defense authorities. Muskrat, Beaver Season Ends LINCOLN Nebraska's trap ping season on mu.skrat and beaver ended March 15. After this closing date the trapper has 10 days of grace in which to dispose of all furs trapped during the season. If a longer period is desired, the trapper .should apply for a writ ten permit from the Game Com mission. The application for the ex tended term must be submitted before March 25, the end of the grace accompanied by a good reason for the extension. The written application is the only way the Commission has of controlling the trapping of fur out of season.

Fishing Activity In State Slows LINCOLN -Fishing activity in Nebraska was slowed consider ably by the subnormal temper atures which prevailed through out the state in recent days. Most of the activity took place on the Missouri River by commercial lishermen. Medford James of Nebraska City took in 50U pounds of fish with a tram mel net and George Majors, also of Nebraska City, caught 155 pounds of carp and 20 pounds ol eatlish by the net. Included among the catches was an eight pound yellow catfish. John Schnitzer of Nebraska City landed a 33-pound blue cat fish with a trammel net. Little hook-and-line fishing occurred in southeast Nebraska because of frozen streams and cold weath er, conservation officers report. In western Nebraska, trout fishing has passed its peak and is now slowing down, but several anglers are still coming up with a number of large rainbow trout. Some of the best trout fishing is in Red Willow Creek in Morrill County and Nine Mile Creek in Scotts Bluff County. Size range of the trout is all the way from 6 to 25 inches, and one fisherman caught an 8'i pounder in Nine Mile Creek. Farther north at Smith Lake in Sheridan County, ice lishing con tinues but at a slow pace. Catches have been small with a few largemouth bass, bluegill,. crappie, and yellow perch being snared. Pollard Holsteins On Official Test The 21-cow registered Holstein herd of Malcolm Pollard, Ne hawka, has been enrolled in Dairy Herd Improvement Regi stry testing. The program is the newest and fastest growing of three official production testing plans con ducted by The Holstein-Fresian Association of America in coop eration with the state agricul tural colleges. Popularly known as DHIR, it was launched in 1956 as a means of incorporating the DHIA rec ords of registered Holstein cows into the official breed improve ment work of the national Hol stein organization. Under the plan, the 305-day and complete lactation records of every registered Holstein cow in participating herds are for warded to the Association by the DHIA central processing labor atory. Resulting data is published as ready reference in breed im provement and used in Silver Medal Production Sire, Gold Medal Dam and Progressive Breders Registry recognitions.

PL ATTS MOUTH, NEBRASKA, SFMI-WrCKLY JOURNAL PAGE SIX Monday, March 19. 1962 i What Is Your By Mrs. Kay I. filling extension Home Agent Springtime and redecorating ': seem to be compatable. j There are lots of things to know about painting and about ! paints. The variety of paints on i the market is constantly in i creasing. Sal isf actory r e s u It s depend upon choosing a paint ! that is suitable for the surface ! to be covered and one that will I give you the results which you i wished. For example, moisture can seep through m a s o n e r y and ; metal will rust or corrode unless protected with a proper under coat. Some wall boards have a nap and must be painted in one direction, and a previous lmish ' may show through a new coat ing of paint of may keep paint lrom sticking to it. i If we should divide paints into I catagories according to their thinners, there are two major ! types: 1. Water thinned and 2. I those thinned with volatile spirits such as turpentine. The water thinned paints are relatively recent additions to the pamt industry. They are commonly called rubber base paints and this terminology means that the major ingred ient is a latex or plastic subst ance. They are quick drying paints, are easily applied for the do-it-yourself homemaker and are comparatively odorless. The latex or plastic bast paints are also good choices when painting m a s o n r y, es pecially in the sub-surface areas. Basement walls often ab sorb moisture from inside and out. The latex or plastic base paint will allow the masonry wall to "breathe" and this mois ture will not be detrimental to the paint. 'Mourning Dove Population Explosion, Too LINCOLN Obviously the mournine dove is taking uart in the world's population explosion without realizing it. Dove pop ulations in the United states are at an all-time high, accord ing to L. P. Vance, game chief of the Nebraska Game Commis sion. "Through the sheer force of its enormous numbers, the dove has the greatest breeding po tential of any game bird. They nest in 48 out of the 50 states and in Nebraska average about three successful broods duri:;g the nesting season." Vance said. He noted that it is the only bird which normally carries a game- bird classification that raises more than one brood. It was pointed out that the turtle doves will be moving back to Nebraska in the next few weeks after wintering in more southern latitudes. Their breed ing season in Nebraska begins in April and continues into late August. The peak month for nesting is June. While nesting, doves can be found in isolated nairs, but often several pairs will occupy a single grove of trees on the prairie where trees are scarce. They also nest on the ground and ground nests may be found throughout the state. Turtle dove nests are usually a frail, flat structure of small sticks located on lower limbs of trees in rural areas, but the mourning dove also makes him self at home in town. Part of the reason for the increase in numbers of doves can be at tributed to its willingness to nest close to occupied homes. Because of this factor, the dove is one of the fow wildlife species benefitting from urbanization. Vance further noted that land use practices such as the grow ing of grain crops, farmstead shelterbelt planting, stream Well Armed No enemy nation could take the risk of invading us. Our ju venile delinquents are too well armed. The Schoodic Scoop, Winter Harbor, Me. COWS AM) COMFORT London The British cows are so pampered they no longer sleep on straw. Foam-rubber mat tresses are the latest thing in smart dairy barns. Officials of a factory at Port Glascow, Scotland reported that they are turning out hundreds of these mattresses for farmers who want their cows to have a good nights sleep.

Paints are used primarily as protective and decorative surface cover ings and should not be expected ! to seal a surface such as a base- ! meat wall. Water-proofing is a different I field from painting and needs to be applied to the outside of the basement wall before the ' soil is filled in around the I house. If moisture does seep into the block wall we can not expect ; s coat or two of paint to hold i thai moisture out. I You have perhaps seen evi dences of paints blistering and peeling. One cause for this prob lem might be moisture trying to get out of the wall. It would be well to apply a latex base paint ' then, so that the wall could j "breathe" and allow that mois ture to escape without harming ! the painted surface. Or if above ground level determine the source of moisture and remedy ! the situation. Since the in t r o d u c t i o n of latex base paints many people think this is the only paint. However, this type of paint does have some disadvantages too. Because of its thinner it can not be used as a protective coat to prevent metal corrosion. It is not generally recommended for use in kitchens where the homemaker will want to wash the wall frequently. An oil or alyked base paint has greater washability, than the latex base paints. There are m any questions which could be discussed . . . but if you have further ques tions ask for the bulletin on "Guide to Selecting Paints," at the County Extension Office. Taking Part in margin tree planting, and tree invasion around irrigation ie servoirs are only a few develop ments which favor the mourn ing dove. Construction of stock water dams have further ex panded the potential turtle dove habitat. The dove has no problem in finding food because it eats al most entirely vegetable matter and more than 60 per cent of the diet is weed seeds, foxtail, and pigeon grass. This sprightly bird has a fawn-colored breast, a brownish gray back, and a pale fawn head with a little slate-blue coloring. One distinctive char acteristic is the whistling sound made by its wings when in flight. Known for its long mournful cooing cry, the turtle dove uses this call to declare his territory and to attract members of the opposite sex. This call is a fam iliar one to most Nebraskans and signifies that a welcome, guest has again returned to spend the summer in Nebraska.
