Nebraska highway commission faces constitutional questions and new tax highs
Critics argue the move may violate the constitution requiring executive group members to reside in Lincoln. The seven member commission draws from across the state while the Highway Department continues to assess road priority. Tax collections on motor vehicle fuels reach a new high with $29,731,815 to date, $1,221,273 above last year's level as more vehicles and gasoline tractors drive volumes.

Millet and soy bean test plots yield varies across farms
Results from the North Platte Experiment Station report Hawkeye soybeans at LeRoy Johnson farm yielding 6.5 bushels per acre with Hardy 6.3, Blackhawk 6.1, Ottawa 4.8. Forage millet on Paul Narjes farm ranges from 1.81 to 1.31 tons per acre across varieties. Weather was very dry in August, reducing heads on grain millet. Population trends show rural decline while urban areas grow, and December USDA data notes plentiful but costly foods and rising services.
