Show l.-lru- ; AROWAN TIMES NUMBER ONE PAROWAN TIMES, JAKOWAN, DEER HUNTING IN LOCAL AREA PHS Band Mothers Elect New Officers REPORTED GOOD GENERALLY Again this year as in the past, deer hunting has been the big news in Southern Utah, even overshadowing current political campaigns which are running a poor second in most discussions. Hunting generally has been good in this section of the state, though dry weather and heavy folliage on oak have made hunting difficult. Hunters who have been willing to beat the brush" have had most of the luck. Road hunte rs" havnt done too well. Storms that moved into the area Tuesday night promise to make hunting better. Many hunters, especially from out-ostate have moved back into this area from parts farther north where they have reported hunting on the poor side. Of course it may be that they are just poor hunters too. f- Reports from over the state in general indicate a smaller kill than in previous years. However, it is anticipated by Fish and Game Department personnel that by the time the hunt is over that hunter success will be about the same as last year percentage wise. Reer have been scattered widely due to the open fall weather and lack of water on many of their natural ranges. The snow storm which moved in Tuesday night deposited about eight inches of snow on the high ranges, this coupled with the fact that needed moisture on the winter ranges will probably have a tendency to concentrate herds and make better hunting. All hunters havnt been disappointed however, one deer killed by a California hunter whose name we were unable to learn, weighed in at 280 lbs on the scales at the Southern Utah Dairy Co. Tuesday. The animal was bagged in the Bear Valley area. To date R. L. Fenton has entered the heaviest deer in the contest being sponsored by the Parowan Gun and Rod Club. His buck weighed in at . 173 pounds. Dick Rollins lost his chance with a 172 pound animal. To be eligible to compete a membership in the Club must have been purchased before the opening of the season. To date no injuries from hunting accidents have been reported in the area, though three people were reported lost. All were found safe, and returned to their camps. Woolgrowers Qualify For Payments have Utah woolgrowers qualified for $2,587,213. in incentive payments on 1955 marketings under the Nation- ' al Wool Act of 1954, according to Russell R. Keetch, extension sheep specialist at Utah State Agricultural College. This includes $ 115,472 for 11,581,000 pounds of shorn wool and $332,818 for 46,224, 000 pounds of lamb. With $138 923 deducted for the sheep industrys promotion program. Utahns have been paid $2 448, 290 for 1955 marketings. Over the nation, $55 million in shorn wool and lamb and yearling (pulled wool com- pensating) payments had been made up to August 24, on 1955 marketings. A shorn wool incentive price of 62 cents per pound of wool has been announced for the 1957 marketing year beginning April 1, 1957. This is the same price in effect for the 1955 and 1956 marketing years. . The National Wool Act of 1954 directs the Secretary of Agriculture to support the inprice of shorn wool at an necessfinds he level centive ary to encourage an annual production of 300 million pounds of wool.

Prepares Plans For Halloween Fun 4H Groups To Receive Awards 4-- H HUXLEY EXTENDED TO 30, FOR COSERVATION The deadline for Utah farmers to sign up for participation in the 1956 conservation reserve has been extended to November 30, according to a news release from the state Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee. The deadline was originally set for October 15. J. Taylor Allen, Provo chair man of the state ASC committee, reminded farmers that land which has been tilled during the past year or is in a regular rotation system is eligible for (he conservation reserve portion of the Soil Bank program. Farmers who wish to, par- ticipate, sign agreements with their local ASC committees. Under the program they will be paid a rental averaging $11. per acre in Utah for maintaining certain crop land in cover crops such as grass or trees. Also they will be paid up to per acre in Utah for maintain-7- 5 percent of the cost of establishing the cover. Much of Utahs dry wheat fallow land is expected to be placed in the conservation reserve this fall. For one reason, farmers who cut their wheat planting by participating in the acerage reserve wont need as much fallow v land. Under the conservation reserve, a soil bank base is established for each participating farm. In general that is the average acerage planted during the past two years to cultivated and grain erdps. The soil bank base is the maxi mum acerag'e which can be put in the conservation reserve at the regular rental rate. As indicated earlier, that averages $11. per acre in Utah but varies by county. NOV. SIGN-D- P If a farmer puts the balance of his cropland into the conservation reserve, he will get for those acres in excess of his soil bank base a rental equal to 30 percent of the j ( re- j j . j n Finds Lost Dccr Hunter Homer Adams, local state drivers license examiner not only brought his buck home Saturday night, but a lost deer hunter as well. The hunter, Ken Cooper of Panguitch became seperated from his hunting companions on tho east side of Little Creek Peak. He wandered over the peak and became lost after darkness overtook him. Adams, who was loading a deer on his car about 9; 00 p.m. heard the youth w alking down through the brush and called to him. Cooper was brought to Paro wan where it was tried to con tact his parents by phone. The h lines between here and were out of order for about two hours, and by the time service was restored a h search party had left to look for him. Game Warden S. M.

It is also charged bv Republicans that some 10,000 Democrats voted on the side of the ballot in an attempt to defeat Iae who was supposed to be the strong Republican candidate. As things now stand both the Republicans and Democrats are in a dither. The Reare worried for publicans fear Lees enterance into the campaign will split the party and Democrat L. C. Romney will be elected. The Democrats fear that there will be enough Democrats who dont like either Clyde or Romney who will join with the Lee Republicans and independents Lee for his third to term. Republican leaders seem to be trying to carry water on both sholders have issued a statement supporting Clyde, but at the same time absolving Lee of blame in a fight with Senator Watkins, indicating that they at least give Lee a chance of being elected, and dont want to incure his disfavor just in case. .1 ' Ie re-ele- ct .Dtmocratic party workers and candidates alike seem to be concentrating on holding the party together rather than carrying on any sort of spectacular campaign. It would appear Jhat unless they are saving their big guns" for a last minute rush, that they would be satisfied with a campaign centered pretty well areund issues, and let the two other candidates throw as muclv mud at each other as they like. On the County level, there has been practically no effort evidenced by either party. It is reported that a series of rallies have beerp planned by both parties as a final windup to the campaign. .
