If the birds are healthy and all other conditions are conect. there is no reason why they should not be removed to the laying houses just as soon as they reach maturity. Flocks hatched In March or earlier are ready for the permanent quarters after midsummer. If we leave them A good way for the dairy farmer to euve money is to use lime, phosphorus, legumes and manure. In explanation of tLis statement II. K. Cox, farm crops bpetialist at the college of agriculture in New Lrunswick. says: "The ue of these four things reduces b. tU the feed bill and the fertilizer bill. The ordinary iarm crops will not justify the expenditure of much money for commercial nitrogen; hence, legumes should be used for furnishing the nitrogen, and the lime and phosphorus for insuring a good stand and growth of the legumes. "As is generally recognized, barnyard man j.-- is a valuable asset to the farm. It has been found, however, that manure exposed in tltd barnyard from January 1 to April 1 loses of its value as compared with manure hauled and spread on the land in January. If the weather does not permit spreading. It is better to pile the manure 011 one side f the Held than to leave it in the barnyard. This will at least advance the spring work.

This method, together with other methods of Inoculating legumes, li described In Extension bulletin 32 recently issued by the college." on the range too long, they will start laying, and the result is that a later removal to the laying house will stop production or slow it up. One of the surest ways to bring on a premature molt is the removal of pullets, already laying, to new quarters. We naturally expect puflets, which start production in the summer, to have a late molt, but it is a serious matter when this molt comes on two months before we ought to expect it I believe we should hatch the pullets at a time that will bring them to maturity nt just the time we want them to start laying, says a writer In the Indiana Farmers' Guide. At any rate, the mature birds should not be left on the range after they are ready to start and other egg laying. Leghorns, breeds, should be ready for housing at five months of age, while the large breeds need another month to reach oua-fourl- ii KICI1FIELD States relatively unimportant In the manufacturing increased their importance in 1927 as compared with the previous year, according to statistics compiled by the United States Department of Agricul tare. The important dairy states of Minnesota and Wisconsin did not Increase their production In 1927. The total amount of creamery butter manufactured in the year was 1,4!)G,40P,-00pounds, an increase of over pounds over 1920. Iowa achieved a substatial Increase. "In general," says the bureau of agricultural economics. "Increases ure reported In the less important states, in the Far West, in which particula sections it tins been generally known the dairy business has been increns lug rapidly in recent years."

A large tonnage of beets has now been stored in the bins at the factory, under supervision of Elliott Larson of Monroe, who is inspector of beet loading station.

PRICE Construct ioin of the new federal aid highway through Price canyon has- been completed and the road will be thrown open for tarffic soon, it was announced recently at the office of the state road commission. There have been several delays in the work because of floods, development of a new coal property and removal of the Price and Helper pipe lines.

Eight double decks belonged to Jack Berg of American Fork and eight doubles belonged to Boley Erothers. The fat lambs sold at $13.85 and feeders at $13.50 per hundred weight.

Dern. The proclamation also urges especially that appropriate exercises be conducted in every school and institution of learning throughout the state cn Friday, October 26. It is as essential that the people of a great, inland state should know their navy just as well as those living in the coastal states, who are thrown into dai'y contact with the active forces of the great fleets, the proclamation declared. This year the country is celebrating the 153rd anniversary of the inception of the navy, the proclamation sets forth, and during the intervening period between that date and the present the navy has grown from small sloops to one of the two greates armadas afloat. The country's efficient sea force today is an effective instrument of peace, a bulwark of protection, and a living monument to patriotic pride," the proclamation declares. VERNAL Utah's alfalfa seed crop is expected to amount to P,000.-C0- 0 pounds this year compared with 15,000,000 in 1027, according to a crop forecast issued recently by Frank Andrews, statistician for the United States department of aericuliuro. The figures refer to the weight of the see l as it comes from the thresher. In terms of recleaned seed, the crop this year will be about 7.000,000 pounds as compared with 14,000,000 pounds last yctir, the report stales.

It was found that it ii best to have the outtake flues or chimneys draw the outgoing air from near the stable floor.
