(U.R) Adequate prices for farm products is the best safeguard for assuring eco nomically sound purchasing power among all groups, accord ing to Nebraska's agricultural director, Rufus M. Howard. Howard predicted the 1945 Nebraska farm income will reach the record of $650,000,000 aver aged during war years. Prices probably will not decline during the next two years, he said, by which time Congress will guar antee costs on the basis of 90 per cent parity for 1946 and 1947. Approximately 92 per cent of Wyoming s land area of about 64,403,840 acres is used for rais ing livestock.

M R) Canadian engineers pulled a plug from the bottom of Steep Rock lake, which Is about 90 miles from Fort Francis, so that they could mine Iron ore from a lake bottom. A river was diverted to get at the valuable Iron ore deposit at the bottom of the lake. The most spectacular moment of the history of Steep Rock was when a single dynamite blast opened a hole in the lake bot tom, draining Its 12-mlle stretch and droppmg the water level 45 feet. For more than 40 years geolo gists and others had been de claring that there was iron In the bottom of Steep Rock lake But It was not until 1939 that a Canadian mining group head ed by the late Joseph Errlngton and Ma). Gen. D. M. Hogarth undertook to throw their money into the lake to prove or dis prove this theory. The property, which was pur chased from the Steerola Ex ploration Co., Ltd., consists of approximately 8,200 acres. It took nearly a million dol lars to find out if there was actually any ore on the bottom of the lake. It was discovered that it was relatively pure, hard, high-grade hematite. The first trainload of Iron ore from the development was greeted In Fort Francis on Oct. 3, 1944, a little over a year ago. Steep Rock Is now producing 6,000 tons of ore daily. Its initial objective Is the shipping of two million tons a season. Much-Alive Officer Gets 'Posthumous' Soldier Decoration Belvidere, 111.
