Perry Egan of the Utah Fish and & mission. In line with the department's policy of establishing more open rearing ponds for better and cheaper fish raising, over one mile of such ponds will be added add-ed to the hatchery at Kamas when this project is completed. The work includes the installation install-ation of 4,000 feet of ten inch steel pipe to bring the necessary additional water for this expanded ex-panded operation from the Beaver Bea-ver Creek spring to the hatchery. hatch-ery. Total cost of the project is apprcximately $10,000. Work is being accomplished by department personnel under the supervision of Arvon Johnson, John-son, supervisor of maintenance and building. It will be concluded conclud-ed during the present open season. Water temperatures and other conditions make the Kamas Hatchery ideal for the hatching of eggs and the raising of fry The new ponds will be used chiefly for producing small trout a goodly share of which will be planted by pack into the high Uinta Mountain waters. This hatchery is ideally located in ths respect, as it sits in the western west-ern foothills of these mountains, thus entailing the least possible travel by truck to the varicus points where trails take off into the back country.

P. G. Man Readies Chicken-Pheasant Cross for Market Utah county residents are very soon to become well acquainted ac-quainted with what Pacific Coast people know as the "Northwester", a hybrid fowl, about seven-eighths chicken and one-eighth pheasant. Tjie Northwester is deluxe table fare and is being "assembly-line" grown in the Pleasant Grove plant of Earl Lipscomb and Mrs. Lipscomb. What Mr. Lipscomb started a little more than a year ago as a hobby (he is a foreman at Geneva Steel) is becoming a full-blown industry, indus-try, He constructed a cinder block building near his home and ordered a consignment of the cross-bred chicks. With these first Northwesters a variety which was developed in Cen-tralia, Cen-tralia, Wash, by James H. Know-land Know-land after 15 years of breeding and cross breeding of pheasants and meat chickens Mr. 'Lipscomb 'Lips-comb worked out a system for growing the birds in cages- Only On-ly three times are the choice eating birds handled: once to place them in their chick cages, cnce to "thin" them out into fattening cages, and once to slaughter and prepare them for marketing. With little room to romp and play, and with plenty of food and water on which to dine, Nor hwesters mature rapidly. At 12 weeks the females weigh ab.ut thrse pounds, whik the Tales average nearly four. The b'r-s are squatty, but with long necks. They have thick thighs and drumsticks; broad, deep breasts; plump wings. Their b.:ks are small. Important in the development of these unique birds is their d et which consists of a special formula of highly concentrated pr.tein feeds supplied by Vern Gsode, Pleasant Grove feed mill operator. Goode carefully selected sel-ected the best in grains, chem- cals, supplements and added generous amounts of ground corn to insure swift fattening. He ground out tne feeds, pro gressively more concentrated as the bird's growth advanced Mr. Lipscomb reports that he has about 2000 birds maturing all the time with a steady order at cafes and private individuals for approximately 150 birds a week. Because the Northwester plant is extremely well-planned and modern, Mr. Lipscomb and his wife can remove 25 their cages, slaughter them, pick them with an automatic picker, draw them and have them ready for the ice box within an hour at no greater price than either frozen or fresh frying chickens packaged by big industry. Northwesters get their popularity popul-arity from the tender meat all leg and breast and from the fne pheasant flavor which is ever-so-faint in the entire bird. i Women's Club Stages, Annual Canyon Party Funeral Services for Horace A.

Utah Wheat Goal 450,000 Acres State 1952 production goals for fall-seeded wheat, barley, oats, and rye were announced shis week for Utah by J. Vern Il.ipkin, chairman of the State Agricultural Mobilization committee. According to Mr. Hopkin, the state's acreage goals for these fall-seeded crops are as follows: wheat. 450,000 acres; barley, 125,000 acres and rye, 7,019 acres. These goals apply only to fall- seeded crops. Goals for spring-seeded spring-seeded crops will be announced later. In making this announcement, Mr. Hopkin explained that these acreages are considered to ce Utah's share of the national goals for each of these fall-seeded crops. The national goals for wheat of 78,850,000 acres; for barley of 12, 885,000 acres; lor oats of 8,035,000 acres and for rye the 1951 harvester acreage, are in line with good land use and for all possible expansion of feed crops including hay and pasture. The national goal for wheat calls for a slightly larger acreage acre-age than was seeded in the fall of 1950 for harvest in 1951. The state goal of 450,000 acres compares com-pares with 428,000 acres seeded in 1950. These goals are designed design-ed to fill all known requirements require-ments and to maintain a safe reserve for emergency. The national barley goal, in Jine with the effort to increase the production of feed for livestock, live-stock, is about 15 percent higher than last year's planted acreage. 128,000 acres were planted in 1951 and 125,000 acres In 1950. The state goals for these crops will now be broken down by counties. No individual goal for farms will be established. his mother. Mrs. Ada C.
