PUBLISHERS ASSOCIATION ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS Despite the scientific progress made in the past twenty to thirty years, man has not been able to improve on the art of living peacefully together in two thousand years; we just have not used it. In our own community, it is a ran' thing when we can get more than four or five jM>ople in agreement on any one thing and it's a near miracle when about ninety jier cent of the people agree to cooperate on any community project as we did two or three years ago when the community hospital idea was started, yet the hos pital idea shows what can be done when we set our mind to join in and cooperate. On other things that could and should have been done such as coojierating to build a better community to live in we have made some pretty miserable failures, but failures that we could still live down, if we have the will to do it. In a great number of opportunities we have had, we can't dis miss the opportunity with the question, “What's in it for me,” and refuse to coojverate unless it’s clearly shown that there are a few nickels in it for those who want to cooperate. Community assets can not always be exacted to bring a fi nancial return to those who seek and work for this asset. There are numerous individuals who donate much of their time to the promotion of community, civic and city af fairs. It’s the price we pay for better places to live and for a democratic form of government which we live under. Dictators don't want and don't need the help of the individual groups. The individual can be relieved of a lot of responsibility and bother if he will leave civic and govern ment affairs up to one or two people, but when he does he also runs the risk of surrendering his right to participate in government or community affairs. MORE MEAT Writing in Country Gentleman. Fred Bailey- says, “Work is to start next spring on one of the largest reforestation and revegetation programs ever undertaken by the Forest Service. It is to include 4,000,000 acres of burned and cut- over forest land and 83,000.000 acres of range land in need of reseeding . . . Forest Service officials estimate the pro gram, when completed, will enable the range lands to handle five to 10 times as many’ livestock as at present.” It is forecast that the nation’s livestock population will increase very substantially during the next few years. Va rious reasons are responsible. One is our large supply of feed grains and grasses—produce which in many instances would be wasted entirely unless used for animal husbandry. An other is that meat animals can be raised on either a small or large scale almost anywhere. SALEM.

This chart shows clearly and graphically, the dis tribution of the land of the United States how it was distributed, when it was parcelled out, and by what act of Congress. Tlx- data is complete from the beginning of our government under the Consti tution down to date. One of these charts can be obtained either by writing me or directly to the i bureau. Congressman John Taber of New York, former chairman of the house appropriations commit tee in the 80th Congress, points out that the budget amount re quested by the president is ac tually nearly $51 billions. Mr. Ta ber figures it this way: "If you add the new appropriations that he is asking for, including the con tract authorizations, the defi ciency which this Congress is asked to provide, the new authori zations which this Congress is asked to provide and the items provided for in new legislation carrying an over-all picture of what the president is asking the Congress to give him in this ses sion, you get a total of $50,833,- 000,000.” The cash requests, he says, are really $9 billion more than the' cash provided by the extravagant [ first session of this 81st Congress. ft Job‘ñúiub..,yet priced with the Lowest Look At What You Get For What You Pay The Result of Dodge Engineering Leadership 1.
