Good FILA ~Repayments

that in 1862 his agency had its
biggest year in history. Nation
wide, Farmers Home Admins
tration lending totaled 1854
million, an increase of so per
cent over the amount for 1861
and 100 per cent over the to-
tai for 1860.
A total of $547 $50 in loans
to Richland County farm and
other rural families were made
by Farmers Home Administra-
ton during the year. This was
a 7 per cent increase over the
amount for 1861.
OF the $547 $50 loaned by
Farmers Home Administration
in Richland County during1962
5000, 400 went to SO farmers to
buy equipment, livestock, fer
tilizer, pesticides, feed, tractor
fuel and other supplies for
farm and home use.
Farm ownership loans to-
falling $185,73O were made to
ten farmers to buy, develop, or
enlarge their farms and to re-
finance debts. Private lenders
advanced $63,17O of these funds
under the Farmers Home Adj
ministration's insured loan pro-
gram.
Rural housing loans totaling
$51 600 went to five Richland
County individuals to build or
improve houses and service
buildings on farms and in rural
communities.
Water development and soil
conservation loans of $500
went to one individual.
The Food and Agriculture
Act of 1862, signed by Presi-

Parking, Bars
Nix Proposed
Library Building

County Commissioners found
out last week that the Ameri-
can Legion building on Central
Avenue wasn't the spot for the
city-county library.
Only a few turned up for
the meeting called last Thurs
day, however, everyone was
in agreement that the location
wasn't the best. The Commits
sioners have considered pur-
chasing the building for use as
office space and possibly the
library.
The library is now housed
just across from the Court
house and space is at a pre-
MUM.
Objections were based on linn
tied parking space and the
proximity of at least four tav-
erns in the area near the Lee
gion building.
The commissioners asked the
group to look for a more ac-
ceptable site and report On
their findings.

Transient Farm
Worker Pleads
Guilty to Theft

A transient farm worker, Ar
brey Watson, Jr., was charged
with grand larceny in the theft
of a collection of sixty silver
dollars from the farm home Of
his employer, Lester McMillen,
about Is miles northwest of
Sidney.
No estimate on the value of
the coins was available, but
Sheriff Wilbur Cornelia said
that Watson apparently either
missed or rejected other coins
IN the collection, valued at
about 5000.
The theft was discovered
shortly after 4 pm. Thursday
when the McMillen family re-
turned home and found Watson,
who had been employed there
since about April l, gone. They
at first thought he might have
been hurt but a quick check
OF work areas showed no signs
of an accident and the coins
were then found to be missing
and McMillen notified the
Richland County authorities.
Sheriff Cornelia said that
Watson had linked into town,
then taken a taxi to Glendive.
Dawson County authorities
were notified, picked up Wat
son, and held him until Rich
land County officers could re-
turn him to Richland County
late Thursday night.
Cornelia said that Watson
has admitted serving terms at
the State Industrial School in
Miles City, the state prison at
Deer Lodge and in a prison in
Washington. Given a prelimin-
airy hearing Friday morning in
the court of Justice of the Peace
j. B. Dave, Watson waived his
right to a hearing and right to
counsel and was placed under
bond of $500.
He appeared in court We'd
nesday and entered a plea Of
guilty and was scheduled fol
sentencing Thursday.
Sheriff Cornelia said about
30 of the dollars have been re-
covered where spent, but that
some had already been passed
out in change by merchants
and may never be recovered.

Allotment
Notices to be
Mailed Soon

Notices of 1964-crop wheat
acreage allotmentS will soon be
mailed to all wheat farm op-
orators, Fred Iversen, chair
man of the Agricultural Stabi-
llzation and Conservation coun-
ty committee, has announced.
For most wheat farms. the
Chairman explained, the allot-
ment represents the farms
share of the 1864 national
wheat allotment of 49.5 million
acres. For small farms, how-
ever-those with wheat allot-
ments of less than Is acres,
the allotment represents the
larger Of:
(a) the farms allotment based
ON the national allotment, or
CD go percent of the farms
average 1959-61 wheat acreage,
but not more than Is acres.
IverSen pointed out that all
the wheat produced on a par
ticipating farms wheat allot-
ment acreage may be market
ed free of penalty if marketing
quotas are made effective for
the 1864 wheat crop. All wheat
from a farm which had no
wheat history in the three base
years 1959-61, however, would
be subject to a marketing quo
ia penalty.
The question of whether to
use marketing quotas for the
1864 wheat crop will be de-
cided by wheat growers in a
referendum on May 81. "Small
farm" operators will be eligible
to cast ballots provided they
register-by May 13-their in

1864 program as an allotment
grower. They will do this by

Construction Under Way On Tile
Drainage System Near Sidney

Construction got under way
recently on the D~egn-Kerbel-
Buxbaum tile drain located
south of Sidney.
The project is the result Of
joint action taken by farmers
south of Sidney to combat a
poor drainage problem on their
irrigated lands. Members of the
drainage project are Harold
Buxbaum, Richard BuXbaum,
George Kerbel, Julius Degn
and Roy Degn. The $4,000 tile
tile drainage project will pro-
vide immediate relief drainage
for 245 acres of land of Which
100 acres were in immediate
danger of drowning out or be-
coming too salty to produce
crops.
The desien calls for place
ment of 5000 feet of 6 to 1C
inch tile at a depth of up to
10 feet in the problem area
Approximately 10000 cubic yds
of earth will need to be eXcava-

For 'Feuthered Friends

NO doubt 1t is an act OF braShneSS
to take position at the point where the
antithetical views Of gourmetS, bird
lovers and Sportsmen meet head on.
For these are dedicated partisanS, and
any one who dares challenge any of them
can expect little tolerance.
Even so, story by Reuters under a
Rome dateline inspires taking of sides
-basically on the side of the birds. The
story, in brief, is that Italy's bird popu-
lation is being dangerously reduced by
hunting Of many kinds-by tens of thou
sands Of week-enders with guns and
dogs, by youths with catapults, and by
widespread sale Of traps that are ad-
vertised as able to capture up to $4,000
migrant birds in single night. This is
not all for sport" since the gourmet
patronized poultry shops Of the country
are featuring such delicacieS as night
ingales, thrushes, skylarkS and even
robins.
1t is of interest incidentally, that
the Encyclopedia Britannica notes that
Italy, In spite Of provincial conservation
laws dating back to the first decade of
the 10th Century, continues to slaughter
inSect-eating migrant birds "for the pot"
In the present case, ban against such
hunting during the spring nesting sea-
son was lifted on March /. Since then,
Reuters quotes the Italian daily, La
Stampa, there stand against the hunters
and their gourmet customers "only a
few scientists who know the gravity of
the damage suffered by our agriculture
through the steady disappearance of in
sect-eating BIRDS in addition to a mi
nority who feel sorry for the graceful,
winged, singing creatures whom st.
Francis called the little angels of the
earth."
We are, in this case, for the birds.

GriswoId of Yale

In the al-too- brief span allotted
him, DR.. A. Whitney Griswold left an
imprint neither time nor change will
erode. His eloquent voice carried the
message Of freedom far beyond the
elms Of Yale University, whose presi-
dency he filled for l3 years.
Judged as an administrator alone,
DR.. Griswold made remarkable record.
His relentless work on behalf OF faculty
members nearly doubled their pay In a
decade. unsupported Of money-raising
skills, he nearly tripled the endowment
fund. But he also more than tripled
the budget for sciences, and in so doing,
attracted such gifts as the $40 million
grant of c. Mahlon Kline for a new
science center.
He championed free academic ex-
preston at Yale and elsewhere. He
believed that no one who cares should
be denied a liberal arts education as
a means ito expand to the limit the
individuals capacity, and desire, for
self-education, for seeking and finding
