could have possibly seen Its shadow Wednesday, Ground-hog's Day...

H. C. McNew brought us by several copies of "The Far -mer ' s Almanac" and It m akes for some Interesting reading.

One of the little gems of In-formation in It tells us that In 1836, the United States Treasury declared a surplus of $2»,000,000 and divided It among twenty-six states. Do you suppose we should buy each congressman and the President one and mall it to them with that encircled In big black Ink. I don't know about you but It make? roe. kind of nervous whei I read of the present total of U.S. Indebtedness and then hear President Nixon ask for a-nother raise on the debt cell-lng. • i. • '

Tliere's talk of a "value added" tax which would bring in about $16,000,000,000 (I think I got the proper number of zeroes) but there isn't any talk of using this extra money to help pay off our lndebted-ness only of using it to help schools. Thai's good, most school's need all the help they can get but we are too, I am afraid, when the day of reckoning is bound to come....

I'm getting to sound pretty cynical so I guess I had better just quit eight here and try to -think only cheerful thoughts until I sit down to do this again next week....

Carter Comments

Congressman .Tim Lee Car -te r , Fifth District of Kentucky, today, commented on the P res i -dent's recent address to the-nation on U.S. policy In Viet-nam, which included an eight-point plan for peace that has been the basis of a top-secret effort to end the war in Viet-nam.

In his disclosure, the Pres i -dent stated that the United States has formally offered to "agree to a deadline for the withdrawal of all American for -ces in exchange for the release of all prlsoners-of-war and a ceasef i re . "

"In addition," stated the Representative of Kentucky, " there was a call for the es-tablishment of a withdrawal date and a plan for holding a new presidential election In South Vietnam. "Officials at the White House

said that the plan for peace would mean an end to all United States military activity in Indo-china, Including bombing by planes based on car r ie rs In the South China Sea."

Dr. Car ter continued, "As you know, I have always op-posed our entrance Into the war In Vietnam. Our nation will not soon recover from the great losses we have suf-fered In terms of dollars, na-tional resources, and di-minishing confidence in our government. But needless to say, completely irrecoverable are the many lives lost In the Jungles of that tragic conflict.

"1 have always supported any effective effort to disengage this nation from the war in Southeast Asia, and to see the return of our prlsoners-of-war . "

" I believe^' explained the Fifth District Representative, "that most Americans were pleased that the President pre-sented his eight-point program, and In my opinion, he acted wisely In making his proposals public. The plan represents a major change In the negotiat-ing position of the United States, and we shall continue to hope and pray that the lead-era of North Vietnam will soon agree to settlement terms,.and bring a&oot » ' las t ing peace.

"Many problems remain r e -garding the political future of South Vietnam and all Indo-china. The President, however, has made a great s tep forward in his plan for holding new elections in South Vietnam with supervision by neutral na-tions. I support this and most of the o t t e r points of his pro-posa l . "

CongressmanCarter conclud-ed, "Too long has our nation been torn apart by a conflict on the other side of the world. It Is my hope—and the hope of the American people—that the day will soon come when the war In Southeast A*la may be a closed chapter In the history of our great country."

HUNTING L FISHING

Those Kentucklans who are reluctant to put In storage their favorite shotguns can take heart. You still have until Feb. 28 • to get In a bit «f hunting.

While the quail and rabbit seasons end Jan. 31 and since the waterfowl seasons, too, a r e .over, .the. hunter .mwlbe._a_Wt_ lonesome. Yet he still may engage in some of the trickiest , yet most rewarding shooting of the entire season—that is If he wishes to seek out the ruffed grouse In the extreme eastern section of the state.

TherS are approximately 30 counties In this t ier where the grouse, that wily, rough and nervous mountain blfd may be found, in other sections, this species Is practically non-existent now, although about the turn of the century they were plentiful In all parts of the commonwealth.

A change in the forests play-ed havoc w)th this fine bird. The grouse, biologists will tell you, obtains its principal food from the small nuts and grapes and ber r ies and the succulent buds on small bushes and t rees . This food was present everywhere In the state In years gone by but was destroy-ed with (he clearing of the forests and woorilota and with, the encroachment of civiliza-tion. The grouse, like many other species of wildlife, Juat doesnt get along very well with civilization. 1

But In Eastern Kentucky, this deceptive bird was given a second chance. After the wood-ed sections were cut over, new saplings and grasses, vines and berries emerged within a few years and furnished not only sufficient food but also ample cover, which the grouse demands.

This change started taking place 25 to 30 years ago In the mountain region and the grouse, like many species of wildlife, bounced back in the suitable surroundings. Now huntable populations . are available In the hill country.

Another factor affecting the return of the Eastern Ken-tucky grouse, experts believe, was the outmlgratlon of res i -dents of these sections. In many mountain hollows fami-lies had eked out vegetable and cash crops by cultivating their bottom land. But when other sources of income were cot off the families were un-able to subsist on what they could glean from the land and were forced to move away. W lthln a few years these once-cultivated areas became thick with grasses, vines and ber -r i e s , offerlngan excellent menu and fine cover for the grouse. And the grouse came back In ratio to the exodus of people.

At present grouse a r e sca t -tered throughout this mountain section since moat areas 'offer a variety of food and cover. However, if the food crops should be hard hit in the val-leys, the grouse move further up the mountain, feeding on nuts, buds and berries as well as certain types of fern. Or, under given conditions, they may be located right on top of the mountain as other types of food become' available there.

The mountain areas are

good use in hunting. By using a four-wheel-drive vehicle, a hunter can ride through these areas while his dogs fan out on. each side. This makes easy
