Show OREM-GENEVA TIMES Thursday, August 3, IS 17 UTAH BUMPER CROP HARVEST TO REQUIRE ADDITIONAL LABORERS With another bumper harvest in prospect for Utah this fall, Morris H- Taylor, state extension exten-sion farm labor supervisor today to-day called upon city workers and the youth of the state to Aslp meet the peak harvest lab-- lab-- i- requirements during the next few weeks. The farm labor program, operated op-erated by the Utah Extension Service the past few seasons, has no funds for importing additional ad-ditional Mexican nationals for the fall harvest this year, Mr. Taylor reported. There are now less than 1,000 Mexican nation als working on farms in the state. i "These, as well as Filipinos J Indians, and other migratory workers will go a long way toward to-ward helping the farm families get the crops harvested," Mr. Taylor commented. "However, there will be need for hundreds of local city and youth workers." Last year, with smaller crops in the state, there were 1600 Mexicans, in comparison with less than 1,000 in the state this year to help with the harvest. During the next few weeks there will be large crops of tomatoes, to-matoes, peaches, and sweet corn to be picked at the same time-Simultaneous time-Simultaneous with these will be field corn, potatoes, third crop alfalfa, watermelon, canteloupe, and other crops to be harvested. "Wages for farm work are excellent. ex-cellent. They compare very favorable fav-orable with wages of skilled labor la-bor in the cities," the farm labor supervisor reported. "The Mexican Mex-ican nationals have been earning earn-ing from $8 to $15 per day and local people can easily earn that much or more-" Tomato pickers are being paid $6.50 a ton for number ones' and $3.25 a ton for number num-ber two's, or about 12 cents per bushel on number one's grading 70 percent or better. Ten cents per bushel or hourly hour-ly wages are being paid for strip picking of peaches. Sweet corn pickers are paid by the hour, with wages varying vary-ing throughout the state- Mr. Taylor expressed appreciation appre-ciation to the school districts of the state for their cooperation in dismissing school the past few seasons to enable students to assist with the harvest. "The schools have been very j cooperative with us in the past liind we hope that again this year especially, they will assist us in getting the bumber crop harvested, so that no food will go to waste while many people of the world are starting." Housing is still a limiting factor fac-tor in arranging for workers Mr. Taylor said. "If a farmer can provide for workers it is that much easier for the extension labor officials to get help for him." The harvest of beans, carrots, and celery is the main truck garden work in the state at the present time, he reported- Following Fol-lowing the peak harvest season of the next few weeks will come the digging and topping of sugar beets- DDT Dangerous to Bee Field Forces Utah beekeepers generally reported re-ported loss of the field force of their honevbees last vpar when. ever nearby alfalfa seed fields were austea witn DDT for ly-gus ly-gus bug control during the period per-iod of bloom, reriorted T)r. O F. Knowlton, research professor oi .oology and Entomology at the Utah State Agricultural ml. lege. Bee losses appeared to be mucn more severe and extensive when the DDT was applied during dur-ing the warm part of the day, while bees were active in the field. Less serious consequence seemed to result in cases whero DDT dust applications were made in early morning or late evening. Because of the imnortanr nf having an abundance of wild bee and honeybee pollinators for cross pollinating the alfalfa seed crop, seea growers are urged to apply the DDT dust treatment just before blossoms appear. The recommended dosage is 20 pounds of 10 percent DDT dust per acre, Dr. Knowlton indicated. indicat-ed. It is as important that DDT be applied at the right time as that watering, planting, or other farm practices occur at the proper pro-per time.
