Show ALL THE NEWS OF EAST JUAB JUA11 COUNTY. VOI Raise The Colts Commercial Club Strong lor Letter Encampment. Knocks Prof. CaSne Important Lesson Gives good Prof. John T. Caine 111, Professor of Animal Husbandry at The following is a letter which was written by the Secretary of the Commercial Club to the Chariman of the Indian War Veterans' Committee of Sanpete County, assuring the hearty support of the Nephi Commercial Club in the big encampment, and also, administering a little gentle censure to the Nephi 'knocker" whom it is alleged has been making misstatements in Sanpete county. "Nephi Robinson, chairman Indian War Veterans' Committee. Ft. Green, Sanpete County, Ut. Dear Sir: that "It is reported at Nephi, Sansomeone has been touring pete county knocking the Indian War Veterans Encampment to be held at Nephi, City, Utah, on August 3rd, 4th, and 5th , 1910, and making such remarks that would infer that the Nephi Com mercial Club was not in sympathy with the proposition. Any sucn remarks and any such inference which may have been given out are absolutely false, and anyone making such remarks, at the present time, that is especially the way the people of Nephi feelasa whole community, towards the encampment, is branded now and forever as a knocker of the worst type. The Nephi Commercial Club is back of the movement, which the minutes of the club will show, with all the moral supiort they can give the undertaking as a club, ar.d the individual members to a man are back of the Encampment both morally and financially to make the encampment the success that it was three years ago when held at Nephi. Nephi is better to take care of the encampment this year than they have ever been lefure in the way of dance halls, oiei-- a house and race tracks, aud there seems to be a spirit prevalent among the "whole community to do all in their inver to make the en campment the best ever held in the state. Trusting this will explain the true situation of the conditions as they exist at present. I licg to remain. Yours very truly, Thos. II. Burton Secy. at the ytah Agricultural College, is recognized throughout this state and many others as being an authority on horses, their breed ing, feeding and handling. He has had a vast amount of experience with horses and is in an excellent position to give the good advice which appears below. The ar ticle was originally written by Prof Caine for the Logan Republican ", that breezy newspaper which is doing so much to build up the 'beautiful Cache Valley. We clip a, portion of the article, feeling that the advice given will apply here as well as in Dry Unique Taught Cache Valley. " There is no best breed, but because of high country with hilly roads, which are in certain seasons very muddy, there are some breeds which are not so well adapted to our conditions. If a breed is proving successful stay with it and improve along on definite line; but do not change and so mix the breeds that im provement stops. The use of the grade stallion is also to be condemned as there is nothing which retards improvement so much. The fact that the service fee for la" grade scrub is a few dollars lower than that bred stallion to a good pure seems to influence many and so they raise a $100 colt instead of the $200 kind. Public opinion and a sense of loyalty to the men who pay high prices for good pure bred horses should tend soon to overcome this use of the worst enemy of horse improvement, the grade stallion. Another thing to be discouraged is the sale of good brood mares from our valley; keep them on farms and let the geldMost of the ings go to market. farm work can be done with mares, if care is used and the this gained will help to Mares can them healthy. keep be kept at slow work up to within a few days of foaling, but care should be taken that they are not overdone or abused.

Merrill, in charge of the experimental stations of the Agricultural College extenL- IS liKAl) IN T1IK - sion work, has just completed an extensive in spection tour of the dry farm sections, and gives as his reasons for much of the loss this year the facts that many of the dry farmers were careless about fallowing the ground. Had this been properly done, the crops would have at least been a partial success. Crops on ground which was cropped, last year are an absolute failure in most parts of the state, while those on fallowed ground prove what the professor has been trying to teach the farmers for a longtime. In speaking of the conditions, Prof. Merrill said; "We have not had such a drought in 3(5 years. In point of severity it is the worst thing the dry farmers have passed through, yet the crops as a whole are not Our experiments in injured. eluded examinations of farms in Cache, Davis, Tooele, Salt Iike The work and Juab counties. was done by a corps of field men fronrthe-ngrlcflU- ural college; who are exjterts in their line. "In Cache county several farmers expressed their opinions and showed the insiectors over their farms. James Hall of Wcllsville has sixty acres of fallowed dry farm summer ground which has not suffered. The yield will le from thirty to forty bushels of wheat to the acre. Just above this sixty acres is a large tract, w hich was cropjied last year. On this there will be but half crop. Yonk Ex-Coun- ty Assessor Christian Christen-se- n Writes Letter.
