| . HUNTING
| When starting out on a deer
hunt, don’t just grab hold of
your shooting iron and head for
the hills. A little planning will
pay off in a big way. Try to
secure a map of the area you
are planning to hunt. Then you
can familiarize yourself with all
the roads and trails and streams
where deer may be located. Af
ter you have checked the map
take a trip afield and relate
what is on the map to the ac
tual area.
There are definite ways to
find out if deer are in the area.
Deer are hungry critters in ad
dition to everything else and a
check on the browse line will
let you know how many deer
are in the neighborhood. Os
course, you have to look for
fresh signs also. A combina
tion of fresh signs and a high
browse line is a sure bet that
tne buck you’re after is hiding
somewhere not far away.
FISHING
■ Minnows can help you catch
more fish but the problem of
how to catch minnows is some
times a tough one. Next time
you’re seining or netting min
nows, try this method and see
if it doesn’t bring more of those
slippery silver fish into your
net. Use a pole or oar and stir
up the bottom of the water vig
orously. The minnows will
come to the top to feed on the
food suspended in the water.
Also, the dirt in the water will
help camouflage your net.
Trout always seem to hide
themselves in places that are
impossible to reach unless you’re
a champion caster with two gold
medals. Well, you don’t really
have to be a champ to fish those

hard-to-hit spots. A branch with
a few leaves provides the per
fect camouflage and the answer
to the problem. Hook a fly
lightly to. the branch and float
it downstream. When you’ve
reached the spot you want, a
gentle twitch on the line drops
the fly to zero-in on the trout
in the vicinity.
Worms or night* crawlers can
be made more effective if the
l colored band that you remove
when you open a pack of ciga
rettes is tied around them. Fish
are attracted by the color and
the shine. The bands can also
be great bait savers.

mother nature.
You can help more wildlife
survive by planting certain spe
cies of plants that are furnished
free-of-charge to al] intejested
landowners. Application blanks
and information concerning the
free seed and seedlings avail
able for distribution may be ob
tained from your Soil Conser
vation Service office, county
agent’s office, agriculture teach
ers, one of the Wildlife Resource
Commission’s farm game, work
ers or your district wildlife biol
ogist.
Our research has shown the
plant species we distribute for
wildlife to be the most desir
able from a food and cover
standpoint. Shrub lespedeza
seeds are available on the plants
even when deep snows cover
the ground making waste seeds
from cultivated crops such as
corn and soybeans unavailable.
Thus food is provided that oth
erwise would be absent and
birds ean eat that otherwise
would die of starvation or be
come so weakened to be easy
prey for predators and disease.
It could take 10 years for the
true value of wildlife plantings
to become evident, hut when
that one severe snow, such as
we have just experienced comes
along, it’s desirable to have the
best possible food and cover
available for our wildlife.
Once a wildlife population is
drastically cut back, it may take
several years to rebuild it to
its former level. However, as
long as a population can be
maintained at “certain levels”
during the winter, we need have
no fear of a scarcity of game in
the fall.
It really takes little effort to
get a planting established. Odd
corners, field borders, ditch
banks and waste areas will serve
as a location, and you might as
well have good wildlife food,
growing on your land as less
desirable plants, or worse still,
nothing at all.
Remember two extra birds
saved in the winter could repre
sent twenty by the next fall.
Get your applications for free
planting materials in now so we
can maintain a high wildlife
population on the land and
thereby assist you in getting the
most benefit from this import
ant resource.
Contact any of the agencies
mentioned previously or write
me directly for assistance. Write

The National Outlook
The Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act
, By Ralph Robby 1
It is now dear that one of the
early and hard political wrangles
of the next session of the Con
gress will be in connection with
tariffs. It will come over re
newal of the Reciprocal Trade
Agreements Act. This statute
was first enacted in the early
days of President Roosevelt and
it has been renewed time after
time. The act expires next June
30 and there is no intention of
simply permitting it to, expire.
No one, either in or out of the
Administration, yet knows just
what President Kennedy is go
ing to ask for in the way of
additional powers on tariff ne
gotiation. Gossip has been run
ning high and wild. Some say
he will ask for authority to re
duce tariffs by up to fifty per
cent. It also is said that he
wants to negotiate by broad
classes of commodities rather
than item by item. And it is
maintained that the present act
must be overhauled to eliminate
“peril point” protection, and so
forth.
The Congress will convene on
January 10. Following that must
come three presidential mes
sages; The State of the Union,
Budget, and the Economic Re
port. It would appear, there
lore, that it will not be possi
ble for the message on the Re
ciprocal Trade Agreements Act
to be ready before about the
first of February, and perhaps a
week or so later.
Over the past couple of years
there has been, an immense
hardening of protectionist senti
ment throughout the nation. La
bor unions as a group have us
ually been so-called free trad
ers. But now an appreciable
number of them have swung
over to the protectionist side.
And the South, which tradition
ally has favored low tariffs, al
so has moved to a marked ex
tent to the side of ade
quate protection. Business man- ■

agemerit is, as it always has
been, split on an industry by
industry basis, and: no one can
be certain what the balance of
opinion in group is at any
given time.
The United States Chamber of
Commerce, for example, is fn
favor of lower tariffs, but dloes
not approve giving the Presi
dent wide-open powers to reduce
rates. The National Association
of Manufacturers has no tariff
policy as such, and of course
has no position on renewal of
the Reciprocal Trade Agree
ments Act. But every member
of the NAM, you may be sure,
has his own opinion. It is
quires a vote of two-thirds in
the Board of the NAM to es
tablish a policy position, anc.
many years ago it was found
that it is not possibly to gel
this majority on any mattei
having to do with tariffs.
We submit the following
therefore, as solely our personal
views.
First, today many industries in
this country are being hurt by
foreign competition, and there if
no way they can meet this lowei
cost of production.
Second, a sudden and drastif
reduction of the tariff, in many
cases, would cause unemploy
ment and bankruptcies. Sucl
developments would not be in
the interest of the nation. .
Third, in the long run it is
desirable to have lower tariffs,
and as many items as possible
on the free list. But this sit
uation must be approached grad
ually.
Fourth, tariffs never should
be used to protect inefficient
producers. They should be fix
ed at a level which keeps the
most efficient producer under
pressure to reduce his cost of
production.
Finally, tariffs must be fixed
on an item by item basis. This,
to tHo basis ot completion, and]
