Show THE AMERICAN FORK CITIZEN FRIDAY, MaYi J FRIDAY, MAY 4, 1934 THE AMERICAN FORK CITIZEN Office Alpine Publishing Company Building -Phona 85 A PROGRESSIVE, INDEPENDENT PUBLICATION Entered in the Post Office at American Fork, Utah, an second class matter. On Utoh mfVmsirwr' "Pasture Demonstrationa" Dr -R-Jv Evans of the U. 8. A. C, Experiment Station has obtained come fleedeaa;r from the Northwest where the grass has been found to be most excellent both for hay and pasture purposes. The grass Is especially adapted to places where there Is an abundance of moisture, mois-ture, especially In swampy places. We are trying in this county, several suitable places where demonstrations will be kept close track of and If suitable there will be more of it placed in Utah county. Utah county pastures aren't very good as a rule, In fact, farmers could well afford to put some of their regular farm land into pasture and make it part of their rotation system. "Proved Sire Work" Forty-one states have elected to prove sires by the lactation-record method. Six states chose to continue the 12-month method for the time being. One state has not yet decided which method it will use. The goal in 1934 is to prove at least one sire by the lactation method for each dairy herd improvement association associ-ation in operation. Three months of 1934, one-fourth, of, the year, have 'passed. If this goal is to be reached in every state during the year, 35 percent of the goal should be already al-ready attained. The following slogan has been adopted: "AT LEAST ONE i TO PROVE TO YOU THAT SARATOGA SPRINGS HAS THE Finest Swimming Swim-ming Water IN WESTERN AMERICA THIS ADVERTISEMENT Will Admit You For HALF PRICE UNTIL MAY 20th PROVED SIRE FOR EACH D. H. L ASSOCIATION IN 1934," Utah has only one association and a goodly portion of this association la In Utah county.' - ' Discarded Cows" One cow In 12 la discarded each year, on the average, by dairy herd- Improvement association members because of low production. One in 12 la also discarded because of disease or some cause other than low production. Approximately one cow In 20 is sold each year for dairy purposes to other dairymen. The total amount of culling, on the average aver-age farm In these associations, amount to 20 percent of the herd These tacts are revealed in a summary of data collected by the Bureau of Dairy Industry during the last 2 years to determine why cows were culled. Data from 25 states were studied and the results tabu la ted on a yearly basis. Cows were discarded for the following reasons: 1 low production, 2 udder trouble, 3 sterility, 4 abortion, 5 died, 6 old age, tuberculosis, 8 accident, 9 sold for dairy purposes, 10 other reasons. "Cow Wastage" Thirty-eight percent of the cows discarded were culled because of low production. This represents a cow-wastage cow-wastage of approximately 8 percent. In other words, for each 12 cows the dairy herd-improvement association member raises, one proves to be inferior and must be discarded. The average dairyman experiences a greater loss than this as dairy herd-improvement herd-improvement association members give more thought to the selection of the cows which they place in their herds than to dairymen generally. This loss, taking the dairy industry u a whole, amounts to a tremendous figure. Dairymen can greatly reduce re-duce cow-wastage by using good sires and raising only those heifer calves which have good prospects of being high-producing cows. 30,500 Met Death In Auto Accidents Acci-dents In 1933 Exceeds total for 1922 by MOO; Railroads- constantly strive for Great er Safety, cutting fatalities 86 Per Cent in 20 Team Motor vehicles were responsible for the accidental death of at least 30,500 persons In the United States during 1933, according to figures Just made nubile by the National INSURANCE - - - All Lines of Dependable Protection LIFE, FIRE, CASUALTY & AUTOMOBILE FREE SERVICE A ADVICE Chadwick's Insurance Service Safety Council. In spite of fewer cars on the streets and lowered gasoline consumption, con-sumption, .there were 1,000 more motor vehicle fatalities in 1933 than in 1932, an Increase of 3.4 per cent The figures are based on reports from 46 states, covering, In most cases, an elevenmonth ,period of 1933T-Ewept fUl 1932, 'tiir 1933 total star remains the lowest since 11)28, when 27,996 fatalities occurred, and coim?arev favorably with the high figures, of 33,670 reached In 1931. Reports on about one-third, of last year's fatalities show that the more common accidents collisions with .pedestrians and between motor vehicles increased somewhat less &iKt) fr!. flMi that tb largest advance oooured In the non collision type of accident associated with skidding, running off the road way, overturning, etc One Million Injuries Last Tear wince were were about 35 non fatal Injuries for each motor vehicle fatality, the Injury total for 1933 may be estimated at more than million. The economic loss from these Injuries and fatalities (includ ing wagp loss, medical expense, and overhead Insurance costs) may be roughly estimated at $640,000,000, Property damage costs, though not definitely ascertainable, are probab ly equally large. The railroads continue to make targe capital expenditures for the improvement of safety and protection protec-tion and for the elimination of highway grade crossings. Railroads Eliminate Hazard In every phase of operation the railroads have taken steps to elim inate hazards and to lower the risks of any hazards that are un avoidable. Within the last 20 years the number of fatalities on railway property, owing to conditions within with-in the control of the railways, has been reduced 86 per cent. in contrast to this, grade crossing cross-ing accidents, which are essentially within the Jurisdiction of the pub lic, tend to Increase, despite the millions of dollars which are being spent annually in crossing protection. protec-tion. The greatest possible cooperation cooper-ation on the part of the public who use the highways Is essential to any successful effort to reduce crossing accidents. For the month of November. 1933 the latest figures Issued by the Interstate Commerce Commission there were 397 accidents at railroad highway grade crossings, an Increase In-crease of 22 compared with November, Novem-ber, 1932, while iW fatalities were reported as caused by those accidents, acci-dents, an Increase of one compared with the number for November 1932.
