Form Safety Week
Farm Safety Week arrives each July to remind us that
Farming and Ranching contain many natural hazards. It has
been said that a wise farmer Is a safe farmer.
We strongly urge all our farmer friends all over this
fine county to make every week
Fouling Our Own Nest
Environmental pollution Is a people problem, as well as
an industrial problem. While we demand that Industry do
something about polluting air and water, we should go a
step farther and crack down on the Individual polluters that
number In the tens of millions.
The National Academy of Sciences in cooperation with
the highway departments of 29 states has just completed a
study. It shows a lot of people aren't nearly as concerned
about pollution as they profess to be. Each month, Ameri
can motorists drop an average of 1,304 pieces of trash on
every mile of the nation's vast network of primary high
ways nearly 16.000 pieces per mile each year. Paper items
accounted for 59 per cent of total roadside litter. The rest
was tabulated at 16 per cent cans, 6 per cent plastic items,
6 per cent bottles and Jars, and 13 per cent miscellaneous.
The large miscellaneous grouping included tires, lumber
and a variety of unclassified items ranging from hair curlers,
underwear and false teeth to ice chests and washing ma
chines. This is the work of a public that. Judging by press
accounts, is calling for instant
nental problems.
When you PT Tour
taxes in Morrow County, you
surely realize how times have
changed ... on a steep upward
course. A lot of us haw been
disappointed in the Boeing tract.
Industry -wise because trie indus
try didn't materialize. However,
times are changing and It ap
pears very likely that there will
be" industries hiring people,
making Jobs, performing agri
cultural chores and all kinds of
related things.
This ts not to happen over
night Boeing Is not interested
In booms and busts. But Indus
tries are definitely looking at
Morrow County. A Federal-State
task force has chosen the Carty
Reservoir site for a nuclear pow
er plant location with work to
start In the mid-1970s. The Ir
rigation feature of the plant is
Important to a number of the
planned industries for the tract
It may be hard to believe, but
it really does look like it's com
ing. And. as a taxpayer, it adds
up to a pretty good possibility
of some relief. Land values In
the tract will go up and a nu
clear power plant of SAX) mil
lion in value, along with other
multi-million dollar industrial
developments, means more tax
Income for the county and,
hopefully, a fair measure of re
lief for the rest of us.
Harvest time to upon us. One
eld time farmer told me this
Just might be the biggest crop
ever to hit Morrow County. This
is, of course, dependent on many
Its. Storage among other things
may pose a problem if the boom
materializes. So . . . we're keep
ing our f insers crossed.
