Minimum acreage of the following fol-lowing crops are required: Fall planted day land wheat. . 5 acres Fall or spring planted irrigated wheat .... 2 acres Irrigated barley 2 acres Potatoes - 1 acre Alfalfa for hay production , . ; . 3 acres County awards can be made whenever there are three or more contestants in any one crop. Farmers interested in the program may contact the National Wildlife Week Starts Mon. This week, marks the beginning begin-ning of National Wildlife Week. During this period, special assemblies as-semblies will be held in schools throughout the nation, wildlife groups will sponsor window and street displays and conservation leaders will address the public through the media of the pi ess, television and radio and through personal contact. 1 Here In Utah, the local groups forming the State Wildlife Iteration It-eration will bring the theme "Homes for Wildlife" to citizens of every city and town. Utahns will be reminded of the thoughtless abuses to our rich land - soil pollution, forest fires, pollution, the unwise drainage of valuable wetlands, the conversion of fertile prairies to dust bowls and the destruc tlon of game habitat through over-usage. This year, thoughts will be turned to the requirements of our wildlife . '. . . food, cover and protection. Like us, these birds and animals are dependent upon soil, water and plants to live. Without these, they uerish. Healthy, well cared for lands mean bountiful crops of wild' life; they can also mean pros perous, healthy people. It is of value to the sportsmen to meet the challenge of con servationists and "Make Homes for Wildlife". WIT mT ADS County Agricultural Agent for further information.
