Distribute Many Valuable PamThe round-u- p will be held under the phlets Free auspices of Davis county high school, Bulletins and circulars of much colassisted state es , by the agricultural the lege, University of Utah, and the dates are February' 5th to 9th inclusive. In point of ' variety of production Davis county is the most remarkable agricultural county in the state, but there is vast room for the introduction of modern methods along tha. line of drainage, irrigation, milk and soil testing, marketing crops, etc. Davis county has thousands of acres of land which require drainage by the district method, thousands of acres of hill land which la capable of growing tha best fruit in the world, hundreds of dairy cows which would produce more milk by proper feeding, hundreds of acres of land which would produce better paying crops if it was determined just what crop would grow best on particular tracts of land. All these subjects and many others will be discussed at this meeting by 'men who have made a g study of the conditions peculiar to Davis county. There will also be mach of interest to the housewife in domestic art and science. They will be shown short cuts by which the work of their household will be lightened and their effort a made more efficient. As a matter of fact Tha iteflex believes that tha housewives jot Davis county are ahead of their husbands in their share of homework. We believe that life-lon- there aramre household electrical contrivancekwhich tend to lighten and make housework more effective, Davis county than in any other agri cultural county In tha state, but at tha asms time there will be much on the program of the week which will be interesting and helpful to the women of the county. There should be an average attendance of at least 1000 at each session during tha week. This is not busy time of the year for our people, and no matter whether the weather be rough or pleasant Davis county is so well provided with transports tion facilities that most people who desire, can reach the meeting place in comfort. Every effort is being made by the high school faculty student body and board of education for tha convenience, comfort am amusement of the throng which is ex pected to be in attendance. AH are invited and all will be wel come. -- See the program in this issue of The Reflex. 1 ; ' THE PRESS AND THE TAXPAYER ' It is a remarkable fact that tax payers who pay the bills for all legislative action have least to say as to what shall be done. Lews creating new offices, commissions and burdens for taxpayers to meet are framed up by men who do nothing else and very few of them pay any taxes. These experts are at work continually getting up new political devices and members of the legislature meet them face to face every day of the session. Legislators seldom or never have a y chance during sessions of the who meeting taxpayers finally pay all expenses and whose business is affected. It behooves taxpayers to form leagues for their own protection just as strong as the organised body of experts who get up new laws and try to put them over. Those who sweat and bear burdens of government are only heard through the state press and newspapers are flooded with plausible demands from the army of organized officialism. - eg represents value. Cost goes into its production. Land has been used for the feed to grow upon. Tillage has followed and the harvest after tillage. All this represnts value in the cost of producing feed and that value has gone into the cost of producing milk. That value in the market should represent so much cash and when a man is not getting the market cash value for the feeds consumed by his milk cattle he is simply throwing money away. "We often follow extravagant methods of feeding; some of us. torn our cattle right to the stack, others throw the hay into poorly constructed mangers where waste is tremendous. Others will feed only one class of Teed, like alfalfa, day after day, with no change, and with no grain at all. While alfalfa is one of the finest feeds that the world has ever produced, it is extravagant and wasteful to feed it alone to dairy cows, with alfalfa prices as they now are at any of our west railroad shipping points. Potatoes are good for the human race, but we couldnt do our best work, any of us, if we were to confine our diet exclusively to potatoes, even if they were the finest potatoes that the earth could yield. Cows sometimes astonish us by the amount they will produce on a ration of alfalfa only; but these same cattle will produce better and at a cheaper cost if there is added to their ration, or substituted rather for a part of the alfalfa, some form of feed carrying more sugar and starches like corn silage or good corn fodder, barley or prime mixed hay. Where we have no silage, roots should form part of the winter ration, their chief value being in the better digestion of other feeds when they are used. So, in the matter of feed we can use a system that will help us reduce our cost of production." value to the agriculturist of the West are being published every little while by the Experiment Station of the Utah Agrciultural College.
