'op 1935 Wheat Compliance To Be Carefully Checked By William Peterson, Director Utah Extension Service. The time has come for carefully checking compliance on wheat acreage under the crop reduction Most of the contract program. counties have already measured a large proportion of the acreage planted. Parties with chain and transit will be sent into the different counties to check the measurements made by the com- mittee. for 1935 are from 1934. The arrangements somewhat different The county committees will be essentially responsible for acreage compliance under the contract. In 1934 the drought rather upset the entire procedure because a large proportion of the acreage failed and where the crop wholly or partly failed, careful checking for compliance was abandoned. In 1935 the weather has been favorable. Practically all acres planted are growing and compliance measurements will be made carefully and rigidly. Under the contract every man should be able to indicate his planted and also his contracted acreage that is left out of production this year in accordance with the contract. Questions come to the office every day asking what disposition might be made in the planting of the contracted acreage. The rules and regulations are not different than they were last year. The contracted acreage may be left in fallow and kept free from weeds; it must not be planted to wheat or corn and must not produce any crop which is sold tor cash. The contracted acreage may be planted to oats, barley, and peas, etc., providing these crop3 are cut for hay. The contracted acreage must not produce any grain crop which is allowed to come to maturity, so if it is planted to grain the crop must be cut for hay. The acreage may be planted to alfalfa; if planted with a nurse crop, the nurse crop must not be allowed to come to maturity, but must be cut for hay. The acreage may be planted to grass and used for hay or pasture. Any portion of the contracted acreage may be planted to trees to produce woodlot or timber needed on the farm. If a farmer finds he has over he should immediately planted, riiminate the excess acreage either by cutting it for feed or plowing it under, and when the inspector comes to his farm, he should be able to designate the wheat land planted upder the contract and also he should be definitely able to designate the area set aside as the contracted acreage under the contract. Much time and trouble will be saved if these regulations are lived up to rigidly.

Moon Lake Diversion Tunnel Under Way (Continued From Page 1) few reclamation engineers on the job, making a few preliminary surveys. The lake was frozen over and a small stream of water flowed down the Lake Fork serene and unmolested. Today, one finds a scene of bustling activity. A large space has been cleared and leveled on a small bench under the hill, near the water level, just below the dam site, to provide for the numerous camp buildings. Here men on duty are busy unloading lumber and machinery, erecting the buildings, etc., while those who have completed a shift or are waiting to begin one are at rest watching the activity. Prominent in the middle of the camp is the mess hall where good cooks provide the men with the fuel for their labors. If one is on the job, or fortunate to be present at noon, and receive an invitation to join at the meal, a real treat is in store. Great platters with choice of meat, potatoes in two styles, three vegetables, bread, cakes and coffee, and a choice of pie or pudding for dessert, and all in apparently unlimited quantities, are provided to insure the men their fill of food they like. Across the creek, which is now a large, swift moving torrent, one hears the clatter and shriek of the shovels at work biting into the face of the hillside where the tunnel portals are to be constructed. Trucks are receiving the dirt and rocks and hauling them along the hillside to "be dumped on the Northeast side of the reservoir. Up on the hillside near the ultimate West end of the dam is a completed building occupied by the reclamation staff, and other buildings under construction, for their use. Here and there over the hillside are the surveyors and their helpers, checking on the progress of the work and setting location flags, which mark the entire site. Flanking the road along the hillside above the dam site is a great area where the sage brush has been uprooted and scrapped into rows, in preparation for the huge barrow pit where the earth for the dam will be shoveled out.
