S. government exDendirures esti mated at $42,000,000,000 for the fiscal year 1949-50, the question arises, just how much $42,000,- 000,000 really, amounts to In un derstandable terms. The family economics bureau of Northwestrn National Life In surance Co. estirnates it would make a stack of $10 bills 240 miles high. It would equal the combined wages of 1,000,000 manufactur ing workers at present average wage rates, for 15 years. It is a third greater than the total cash receipts for ail the produce of America's 6,000,000 farms in 1948. It is slightly more than the U. S. government spent In world war I. It is slightly more than the U. S .government spent in the 142-year period from 1776 through the fiscal year of 1917 18, inclusive. It Is more than one-sixth of our present total national income. It is $700 per American worker. It is $1,050 per American family. Spending $42,000,000,000 in a year means spending $80,000 a minute for 24 hours a day for seven days a week for 52 weeks.

"Jefferson county Is ex tremely fortunate In the caliber of these farmers," he said, "for they are largely experienced not only in agriculture but In Irriga tion farming. They come from Idaho and from Klamath, Des chutes and Malheur counties and they are doing a fine job." Returns Large Selective use of fertilizer types lor tne various crops and sell- financed weed control to protect the quality of legume seeds were given special mention by the speaker.

IF The Atom ic Energy commission and the Fish and Wildlife service will try to radioactlvate oysters here. The Alii; hopes to learn more from the experiment than it did in the A-bomb test at Bikini. The FWS's part in the project will be determining what an oys ter likes to eat. In a huge build ing used before the war as a bio logical laboratory, the oysters will be fed artificially. Tiny amounts of .radioactive chemical substances from the A E C's isotope division at Oai Ridge, Tenn., will be shot into t .e tanks along with organisms which scientists believe appeal io an oyster's appetite. As the organisms grow, they absorb the radioisotopes and (lie oysters will eat "hot" food. Isotopes can be traced. Thus, said Dr. Clarence Cottam of the FWS, the food taken in by the oysters, digested and incorporat ed in their tissues may be deter milled chemically and by radia tion measurement. ,.-. re MOV See Us December 1 in Our New Location 952 Bond Sf.
