They offer many advantages such as low cost and construction simplicity. Pole, buildings are durable and long lasting. Rough cut lumber is used throughout. No masonary footings, foundations or diagonal bracing are required. Don Extension Wadsworth, agricultural engineer at Utah State University, says that the barn structural frame is designed so it can be adjusted for a variety of purposes. Spacing and height of the poles can be alter ed so that you can use the same type of design for a storage unit as you use for a cattle shelter by shortening the length of the poles. The major disadvantage of this type of structure is the difficulty in handling and raising long, heavy poles, he adds. e structures have Pole-typ- CHANGEABLE FALL WEATHER CAN CAUSE TROUBLE IN YOUR POULTRY NOUSE Purina Health Aids help prevent trouble before it starts a vitamin and antibiotic formula for chickens and turkeys will help your birds overcome stress periods.

Fullmer Allred. Dr. Paul Christensen, Utah State University soil conservationist, says many farmers can make better use of the water available for next year by changing their irrigation system These changes could include re aligning ditches, lining ditches, building concrete headgates, and land leveling. Each farmer eager to make irrigation improvements should consider these questions: Is each field irrigated evenly? Are there salty spots which could be leached in late fall or early spring to make the land more productive? Is there water run ning off the end of the farm? Is the available water being used wisely? In areas which need improve ment a farmer may have water that is available in late fall or early spring which can be used to irrigate and fill the soil water applied m tnis way is available for crop use next year, If an excess of water is available, it can be used to good advantage to leach alkali areas Where ditches have grown up to weeds, a weed control program should be planned for next spring. Farmers planning changes should contact their local ASC committee for details on cost sharing. The federal government will share the cost for approved types of ditch structures ad lining, land leveling, and other improvements which will conserve soil and water.
