Nebraska Rural Labor Force Replacement (Dorothy Switzer)

Nebraska has the lowest rural labor replacement ration of any state in the nation, according to figures recently made available on the potential supply and replacement of rural males of labor force age for the decade 1960-70. Nebraska's low ration, 137, means that if there were no net migration to or from the rural population in the decade, and if the number of job openings were to remain approximately the same as in 1960, about 73 percent of the young men reaching working age would find economic opportunities by replacing older men in …

Also present are submerged shorelines, peat deposits, lagoonal shells, and relict sands. Evidently elephants and other large mammals ranged this region during the glacial stage of low sea level of the last 25,000 years.

Roughness Characteristics Of Natural Channels, Harry H. Barnes Jr.

United States Geological Survey: Publications

Color photographs and descriptive data are presented for 50 stream channels for which roughness coefficients have been determined. All hydraulic computations involving flow in open channels require an evaluation of the roughness characteristics of the channel. In the absence of a satisfactory quantitative procedure this evaluation remains chiefly an art. The ability to evaluate roughness coefficients must be developed through experience. One means of gaining this experience is by examining and becoming acquainted with the appearance of some typical channels whose roughness coefficients are known. The photographs and data contained in this report represent a wide range of channel conditions. …

The Nebraska Department of Economic Development (James W. Monroe)

After 100 years of growth and prosperity based firmly upon a nearly self-sufficient agricultural economy, why has Nebraska seen fit to depart from its rural image and increase its efforts in the highly competitive business of attracting industry?

Nebraska's Changing Farms (Howard W. Ottoson and Glen J. Vollmar)

Farm production is a major contributor to Nebraska's economy. Cash receipts from sales by producers of crop, livestock, and poultry products averaged 1,365 million dollars per year for the five year period 1962-1966. Nebraska farmers had average expenses of 1,167 million dollars a year during the same period for fuel, seeds, fertilizer, interest, taxes, and other production expenses.

Importance of Nebraska as the 9th ranking state in the nation and 4th in the top-ranking region, the West North Central, in value of agricultural commodity shipments in fiscal 1965-66 has been revealed in a new study by the Economic Research Service of the I.S. Department of Agriculture. Because Nebraska is one of the ten leading states in farm exports in this country, which is in turn the world's largest exporter of such commodities, explicit world market information pertaining to the state has long been sought.

Multiple Sources of Assistance are Available to Exporters (Dorothy Switzer)

When Nebraska manufacturers seek to protect or expand their stake in the world market, they need both expert advise and experienced assistance in handling the multiple negotiations involved in doing business overseas. Although many exporters are finding it advantageous to employ trade specialists, they also continue to place considerable reliance on their home state financial institutions. both directly and through their connections at the point of export. Nebraska banks are able to expedite foreign financial transactions and to provide other essential services such as letters of introduction to foreign businessmen …

The Future of the Plains (James Allcott)

The logical starting point for a regional analysis of this kind is with population, because people are both the basic ingredient and the object of economic growth. The six states selected for this study - Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Arkansas - have grown. and will continue to grow, less rapidly than the rest of the nation. A significant point to note. however, is that the rate of growth is increasing. while the rate of growth for the nation as a whole is not. During the 1950's, they grew at about 0.6 …

Personal Income received in the Nebraska economy rose from $3.8 billion in 1965 to 4.1 billion in 1966, for a 7.0 percent increase (see Table I and Figure 1). In the National economy the increase was 8.2 percent; in the Plains economy, 7.5 percent. The results: (1) The upward movement of PI in Nebraska in 1965 from 1964, which had been greater than that in the Nation but slightly under that in the Plains, was not sustained; hence, Nebraska's share of both the National and Plain's PI flow dropped after …

Paintings And Sculpture From The Collection Of Phillip Johnson, Norman Geske

Sheldon Museum of Art: Catalogs and Publications

It is altogether pertinent that we exhibit works from the p'rivate collection of Philip Johnson at the Sheldon Gallery, for it was his demonstrated awareness of the arts of painting and sculpture that influenced, at least in part, his selection as the architect for the building. Such an awareness is rare in the profession, particularly an awareness of these arts in their most independent, even their most anti-architectural moods. To be sure Mr. Johnson's collection has, by now, its contingent of contemporary classics in works by Baziotes, Kline, Rothko, and Hartigan, but it should be remembered that they were acquired …
