Sidney and surrounding areas host a flurry of visits and moves.

Nebraska farmers embrace the 1946 Pasture-Forage-Livestock program as county agents report doubled returns this year.

State Seed Analyst R C Kinch reports hybrid and open pollinated seed corn for spring planting is poor compared with prior years. About twenty percent of February tests germinated under 90 percent, with some as low as 65 percent. Kernels are shriveled blistered and sometimes germination ignores seed tags as low quality seed corn appears widespread in the corn belt.
LeRoy Glahz of Sidney and Muriel Adelaide Waite of Lodge pole were issued a marriage license on March 23. Other entries show multiple couples from Lodgepole and surrounding areas with dates listed, including a birth announcement for a son to Mr. and Mrs. James Henzl and a daughter to Mr. and Mrs. Pete Terry.
The record shows admitted individuals including Hugh McHugh Mrs Phillip Eshelman Chappell Lee Rasmus senior Mrs Creaster Stoeger and Kenneth, among others. The fragment suggests a formal admission or roster entry listing multiple names.
The State Seed Analyst notes seed corn quality is down due to late planting and early frosts last fall. Mr. Kinch advises farmers with spring seed deliveries to open each lot and test germination at home using the rag doll method with 100 kernels wrapped in a damp cloth for five to six days.
