1 ' THE PLATTSMOUTH JOURNAL PAGE FOUR Section B Thursday, February 28. 1963 Once-Heavy Wildlife Cover Is Now Scarce LINCOLN Hutrterg who com plained about heavy cover dur ing the hunting season last all should take a look at their favor it tmnt.lnsr (mot now. according to Game Commission Director M. O. Steen. Bteen, taking note of the ed- var waothpr nf fhp last month. suggested that sportsmen get i into the field to see now ine snows and cold weather have re duced the cover available to Dheasants and other wildlife. "It is during the cold of late winter that birds and wild ani mals need protective cover," Bteen sam, ana umess ue quate amounts are left to shield them from snow and cold, many will not be around come spring." Steen reminded sportsmen that the number of pheasants which will be available for the m,n novt full will tn a lflrire d- B Li-" in.ni -- -" d- gree be determined by the num- ber that survive the last spell of cola weatner. Ana me raimoer ui pheasants alive after cold weath er ends is always in proportion to the amount of cover avail able. He urged landowners to take another look at their farming practices too see If they can't improve wildlife habitat on their property. Of major concern Is the amount of cover that Is left to provide nesting areas In the spring. Hen pheasants rely heav-j ily on the residual of wgettive growth left from the previous year to provide nest conceal ment. Many of the early nests ; are- located in road ditches! where weed and grass, cover re mains, j Steen reminded the landown ers that spring burning, except in rare instances, is detrimental to wildlife. Fence rows should be left in the brushy state, where possible, and cattle should be kept out of shelter belts and other areas unsuitable for rz tag but good for wildlife. ; "Game birds and animals are an asset to your farm, to your region, and to the state," Steen told farmers. "For a cost negli gible to yourself you can insure ; survival of wildlife that will pro-; vide countless hours of recre ation and enjoyment to many j people." ' I i Credit Buyer: Did You Claim Tax Credit? There's hardly a consumer who doesn't buy something on credit, yet many of them over look the interest charges when figuring their annual income tax, according to Changing Times, the Kiplinger Magazine. An article in the current Is sue of the magazine, which sug gests ways taxpayers can trim the annual debt to Uncle Sam, reminds readers that finding an other $100 or $200 of deductions can save at least $20 to $40 in taxes. "Interest paid on your auto loan, home mortgage, life in surance policy loan or other debt is deductible," the article points out. So is any penalty paid to speed up mortgage payments or retire a mortgage. Taxpayers who own stock in a cooperative apartment can deduct a portion of annual payments as interest. And interest on back taxes fin ally paid to the Federal, state or local governments is deduct ible. "Perhaps you bought on the installment plan," the article continues. "The interest charge often is Included in the 'carry ing charge' and not stated sep arately. In that case, deduct as interest 8 percent of the aver age unpaid monthly balance during the year. Check the rules on just how to figure it out." Finally, the article advises taxpayers who borrowed on a "discount" loan to remember to include the charges. "Say you got $1,890 cash on a $2,100 loan and paid back $70 monthly for , 30 months. You are actually pay ing $7 a month interest which is deductible the $210 discount divided by the 30 months." There are some six billion head of livestock in the world, or about twice as many animals and birds as there are people. Man harvests from these anUj mals and birds for each person 1 in the world each year, on the average about 20.5 pounds of j beef and veal, 4.2 pounds of mut-1 ton, lamb and goat meat; 20.3 pounds of pork; 8.6 pounds of! hens' eggs and 250.3 pounds ofj milk. New Toy We read In the "Business Bulletin'' column that a new toy cow moos and can actually be milked. Probably it's just a taxpayer.
