Page Fourteen THE DM.Y REPUBLIC, Mitchell, S.D. Monday, March 17,1952 Feed Situation Becomes More Serious In Hand County With Each Snow Storm By MYRNA COTTON County farmers are beginning to wonder if there is to be any end to the storms that have made this winter a long one Will they be able to keep their livestock through each succeedin storm and will they be able to ge through themselves? Sometime ago the situation was getting serious and each storm has made it more hazardous. Where hay must be hauled every day stock is of necessity not fei enough. How will the cattle reac when spring really comes? Will not their weakened condition end dire results? A few warm day with sunshine have raised hopes that a "break" will soon come but after each short spell of good wea ther more storms have come pilini up more snow and making feedin stock almost impossible.

Many farmers are losing young stock such as lambs, pigs and calves, although no farmer has stated definitely what his loss is Herley McCarl has had 23 lambs in the past few weeks. Miles Cotton had 63 pigs. James Gerdes has also a large number of pigs. Pigs farrowed now do not do welt Lack of exercise produces "thumps," even though there is good shelter. Roads had not all been cleared from the last storm and now they are piled deeper than ever.

Snow is 20 feet deep in places. Many snow plows are laid up for repairs. Some folks won't get to trcn before the spring thaw. There has been much flu in this neighborhood. Stomach flu has had to have medical attention in some cases.

Worry, bucking snowbanks, fighting the elements is gradually wearing down the morale of the farmers here. MWPS Bobnilding HighLineOnBoth Sides Of ParkdoB PARKSTON Northwestern Public Service Co. 33KV high line on both sides of Parkston, between Ethan and Tripp, has been the scene of a lot of activity the past week. Two crews of the Brink Construction a company crew from Yankton, and two crews from Mitchell, have been busy replacing the old eight foot cross arms with new 10 foot ones, and bolting them lower on the poles, replacini sulators, braces, bolts and other items where needed. Poles that are ahart or damaged are replaced; putting in new two cross arm transpositions in place of the old close spaced single arm ones.

Two pole or storm fixtures will be installed approximately every half mile with anchor bracing in all directions. This work will practically rebuild the line between Ethan and Tripp, giving two to three times as much clearance between wires, and should prevent them from swing- tag together and shorting in case of sleet and ice or high winds. The storm fixtures and extra bracing will give better line stability in winds and storms.

Handles More Than iii Land Acquisition Cases In Dam Project (Editor's isto: Tab the second ef a aeries ef articles the federal gavenment'a laad aeauisitieu pragma la Dakota.) By DICK EOBAK RepuMie News Service Director Ranging in size and importance from easements on 15-foot-wide strips of land for power lines to the purchase of a ranch to be flooded by the Fort Randal reservoir, more than 5,000 land ac quisltion cases have been handled by the federal government so far Another 500 cases are pending on the desk of Fred J. Nichol.

Mitchell, assistant United States District Attorney. of the biggest handled as far has been the purchase ef American Island tram the city at Chamberlain far M2MW while reading now Is the purchase af a 2,583 acre ranch owned by A. H. Jensen aad E. L.

Jensen, Bouesteel, which probably win be said for a smm the ueighberhesd sf flM.Mt. The Jensen case will be tried at the next term of federal district court if it is not settled before then, according to Nichol. Of all the cases handled by the district attorney's office in buying or getting easements on M.OOC acres of land in the past two years only six or seven have gone to court for settlement, and the major reason is a question on the title rather than price, Nichol said. "We don't like to discourage people from taking the cases to court," Nicbol said, "but by the time they pay court costs and attorney's fees, they don't get much more than they would have if they had taken the government's offer. "It's like a case on an automobile accident.

You usually can get more than you are offered by taking it to court, but the cost doesn't make it worthwhile." ActaaDy, the property owner can't take the case to cemrt. It's the government which takes the matter to ceart, nit by retiring to accept the gev enment'a offer, the piafeity owner can farce the tone to a Jury far decMou. Standard procedure in such cases, according to the assistant district attorney, is to call in neigh- Mrs of the property owner and lave them testify on the amount they received for their land. Juries, as a rule, will give the jroperty owner more money than lie government has appraised the property at. One of the big difficulties in appraising property is the question of severance damages.

They are damages caused when the government wants only part of a farm or ranch. Then the question is: just how much is the remaining land worth? One method of arriving at the amount of severance damages is to estimate the value of the whole unit and then compute the "diminished value" Mrtion. of the remaining The diminished value is the value of the land after the purchase by the government of the rest of the unit. Suppose, for instance, a farm is valued at $10,000, and the government wants half of it. That leaves half the farm which should be worth $5,000.

but because it is not an operating unit, actually it is worth less. The government computes a dhnhriihei vahje which might be $MM instead af and then mbtrscta the $MM from the total vane to pay the farmer for half of a UMM That causes farmers a lot of grief when it comes to arriving at a value for the land left after the wernment buys its share but, Nichol said, "What other way can you do it?" Just how knotty that problem was mentioned in the report to he South Dakota Coordinating Com Committee for Missouri Basin Development on the local impact of the land acquisition program. That report was presented by a committee headed by Clarence Sbanley, Brookings, Extension Service program director. It pointed out that in only a few cases in the Fort Randall area was he entire unit bought, with river wttom land bought in most esses caving only hill pasture. "The loss of water supply, winter feed base and winter shelter will affect seriously the farm as a gong concern," the report stated.
