P sere t Wolverine at twin's ment War Board Urges Sugar Beet Increase Farmers of Utah Countya7e" urged to increase their planting ?n-Tr beetS this accord! lng to an announcement made today by o. Frank Nelson, Chair! Wa? Board' CountSDA Sugar beets have been recently recent-ly declared a war crop by the new Food Administrator Chester C. Davis, Washington, D. C The sugar beets fit well into the rotation ro-tation of crops in Utah County The frequent cultivation of them keeps weeds under control. Crop yields are usually higher after sugar beets than any other crop over a long period of time. Sugar beets have been reliable as a cash crop. The sugar beets yield by-products such as tops, pulp, and molasses all of which are used as important livestock feed. One acre of sugar beet tops is equal to 1-2 tons of alfalfa hay in feed value. It is also a big asset in time of war to have a sugar factory operating within the County. In time of peace it is an important industry for employing em-ploying family labor during the period of growth and harvest, as well as, during the operating of me iaciory. Thus it is obvious that the' growing of sugar beets should be incouraged in this County. ine approved cash rates this year as announced by the Secre tary or Agriculture are available for sugar beet production which are as follows: Blocking and thinning, on a time basis, 50 cents an hour; piecework basis, $11 per acre. First hoeing, 45 cents an hour or $3.50 per acre. Second and subsequent hoeing, 45 cents an hour or $2.50 Der acre. Blocking, thinning, hoeing and weeding as a combined operation, opera-tion, $17 per acre. Harvesting, pulling, topping and loading, 60 cents per hour; or $1.89 per ton for 6 tons or lower; 7 tons, $1.80 per ton; 8 tons, $1.72; 9 tons, $1.64; 10 tons, $1.58; 11 tons, $1.53; 12 tons, $1.49; 13 tons, $1.45; 14 tons, $1.41; 15 tons, $1.39; 16 tons, $1.37; 17 tons, $1.35; and 18 or more $1.34 per ton. These rates are to be paid except ex-cept that in instances where inexperienced in-experienced workers or workers between 14 and 16 years of age are employed on a time basis, the fair and reasonable rate per hour shall be: 1. For inexperienced workers during a reasonable training period, three-fourths of the hourly rate specified in the above schedule. ' 2. For workers between 14 and 16 years of age, two-thirds of the hourly rate specified in the schedule. Employment of such workers is not to exceed 8 hours. Also, hourly rates can be adjusted ad-justed to compensate for decreased de-creased hand labor through the use of sheared or segmented seed or labor-saving machinery. This adjustment makes the rate for blocking and thinning $8.25 per acre if segmented or sheared seed is used in planting. The Sugar Act requires, among other conditions for payments to growers, that all persons em Dloved on a farm in the produc tion of sugar beets be paid in full for such work at rates not less than those determined by the Secretary of Agriculture to be fair and reasonable, after oublic hearings and investiga tion.'

Most of the communities in Summit county are applying to purchase a testing thermometer so that they will be absolutely, sure of the condition of their cookers be fore the busy canning season opens.

Furrows tor irrigation should be no longer than 100 feet for greatest efficiency in the use of water, Dr. Stark advises. Where the rows are too long the top is overwatered before the bottom end has had enough. Wetting the soil 18 to 24 Inches deep is desirable for most vege tables, states Dr. Stark. Lettuce, radishes, onions, peppers and spinach are shallow rooted and the soil must be kept moist In the upper food for satisfactory results. Carrots, parsnips, potatoes, po-tatoes, peas, and beans are deeper deep-er rooted and require deeper irrigation. ir-rigation. Corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, cucum-bers, and melons send many roots to a depth of three feet in good garden soils and this require re-quire still deeper water penetration. pene-tration. Dr. Stark declares that over-watering over-watering wastes water and plant nutrients by washing them out of the soil. As a rule, water penetrates sand soils much more rapidly than heavier clay soils, he explains. Also soils rich In decayed organic material will hold more water than the same soil without the organic . material ma-terial added. "Hollow tubes or spiles made from four laths nailed together are useful in controlling the amount of water for each furrow," fur-row," recommends the extension horticulturist. "These 14 to 20-inch 20-inch tubes are installed in the bank of the head ditch below ,)e water level. The volume of waier flowing through the spile is r'-ulated r'-ulated by a small galvanizod metal gate that can be moved up and down in saw cuts n the sides of the lath near the end of the tube," ha explains.
