During the past few years government officials an dlivestock raisers have become very much concerned about the depletion of forage on the grazing areas. The problem has become realy erious. There are a number of causes and one of the outstanding is the lack of top soil. When vegetation is gone because of drougth or the top possibly over-grazin- soil is exposed to the heavy rains and as a result is carried away down into the deep gullies, futher and futher by each storm. The Russian Thistly, once looked upon by farmers and stockmen as a very undeslreable weed, is coming forth in great style on the depleted ranges and may possibly be the means to save many-acrefrom complete erosion. Requiring but a small amount of moisture, this hardy little plant has also been proven to be very s nutrisious and during the drougth was accumulated by farmers in many section for feed. There seems to be a tendency for thoughtless people to set fire to the dry Russian Thistle that collect in gullies by their rolling habits. The dams made by the tumble weed (more popular name for the Russian Thistle) have been known to reach very great proportions and make ideal water checks. The fine sand, silt and loam is colected as the first waters go filtering through the mass of weeds. When the storm is over the moisture drys and the dam is in the making. The water from the next rain must raise to a higher level before going through the filter and great quantities of the in good soil are left in the bottom the storm front of the dam. Kach same process is repeated and if continued over a long period of time the gullies will be refilled. By building fires and burning these dams and collections of Russian Thistle, the thoughtless when person, opens the gullio and the storm comes the gullie is a clean sweep. Maybe there are ten gullies and if the storm is heavy enough to fill these ten gullies there la a flood. The water from these ten gullies flows down and two gathers into three washes, big one Into washes and finally it fields the over wash, down creek, the of channal the into goes over the main highway, a group of trees gets in the way, a log lodges the water Is hacked up, over the races top of the river channel, course down away from its regular and into some farmers home, on, through the corral and on, on, thoughtsome person All because weeds lessly burned the tumble from the head of the gullies.

T.-- A More than twice as many cases of diptheria have been reported to the State Board of Health In the first ten months of 1937 than during the entire year of 1936, accord ing to a letter released to all physisians In the state over the signature of Dr. William M. McKay's, Director of the Division of Communicable Disease Control. Dr. McKay's letter stressed the further fact that the disease this year is caused by an organism of very high virulence, which means that this is the same type of diptheria germ which made the disease so severe in earlier years. The letter made an appeal to doctors to encourage children of all theoir patients to be inoculated immediately with toxoid given intwo or three doses one month apart. Where children have been incoluated previously with one dose of alum precipitated toxoid, they should receive anoth-e- s inoculation now according to Dr. McKay. It has been demon- strated that one inoculation provides immunity, ordinarily, for only one year to eighteen months, Dr. McKay says, whereas the two inoculations of alum precipitated toxoid or three inoculations of un treated toxoid provide Immunity for a much longer period for life, in mose instances. AH parents In the State are advised by the State Board of Health to have children taken to the family physician or clinic at o ncefor their inoculations against diptheria. The extreme urgency of every possible precaution being taken against the spread of this dangerous disease of childhood is stressed by our local doctors, and by Dr. J. L. Jones, State Health Commissioner, who pointed out the fact that there are at the present time more than one hundred and ten (110) clinical cases of diphtheria in Emery and Carbon Counties alone. Dr. Jones gives assurance that the State Board of Health and all district health in authorities will cooperate officials with way public every and citizens in an effort to bring this disease under control as promptly as possible. As a precaution against this disease In their locality, the Parent and Teachers Association is sponsoring diptheria immunization clinics in Beaver. They will be held in the Belknap School on Monday, November 22, at 9:00 A. M. and in the Beaver High School at 10:45 A. M. All children under 12 who had one injection of the Alum Precipitated Toxoid should have another and those who have not been immunized, should do so at this time. Children over 12 should have a "Schick Test", regardless of whether or not they have been immunized, to see whether or not they are immune to diphtheria before they are given the toxoid. In order to help pay for the cost of materials and the doctor's service, a charge of 50c will be made for each child who is inoculated. The charge for the Schick Test is 15c. No charge will be made for preschool children. ed Karl S. Carlton Wilbur president of Stanford of the homes University; past Kathleen Norris, Pop Warner and many other nationally known personages.
