It's aimed straight at the feminine heart with its romantic design, jewel-like finish, and thrilling glamour. Here is the perfect Valentine's Day gift. Remember, compacts are like hats a woman can always use another and should! At the Salt Lake Ram show, Vern Chipman and sons, Richard Rich-ard and Den, purchased a prize winning Columbia ram and later seven ribboned ewes of the same breed were purchased at the Ogden Livestock show. One of the ewes purchased was the reserve re-serve grand champion of the Ogden show. The Chipmans plan to build a herd of Columbia breeding stock and become affiliated with the Columbia association. The Columbia breed was developed de-veloped from a cross of the Rambouillet and Cotswold. Early maturity,, prolific reproduction I and a good yield of long staple wool are characteristics of the Columbia. Richard is a four year veteran of the local FFA chapter and was awarded the State Farmer de gree last spring for his achieve ments in the Future Farmers wcrk.

NATIONAL EXCHANGE A Utah farm youth will be selected by the extension serv ice of the Utah State Agricul tural college to go to some European country for the summer sum-mer under the international youth exchange program. The youth might be either a boy or a girl, and in exchange some foreign farm boy or gill will be brought to Utah. Selection cf the Utah candi date will be made by David Sharp, Jr. and Fern Shipley, state supervisors of USAC extension exten-sion youth programs. The dele gate selected will be a 4-H or former 4-H club member. The 6000 members of the Utah Poultry & Farmers cooperative scattered over Utah and southern Idaho produced more than 14,-500,000 14,-500,000 dozen, or 174,000,000 eggs during the 12 month period from October, 1947, to October, 1948, according to General Manager Clyde C. Edmonds. The thirty-second annual convention con-vention of the Utah State Farm Bureau will be held at the New-house New-house Hotel, January 27 to 29, according to H. M. Blackhurst, program chairman. The State association has a membership of 4630 and more than 500 are expected ex-pected at the convention. Utah County fanners wishing potato goals for the 1949 season should immediately get in touch with the county agriculture conservation con-servation agency at the county building in Provo. Potato goals refer to the num ber of acres of potatoes a former can grow to be eligible for the ACA price support program. Columbia and Targhee cross breds appear better adapted to southern Utah Ranges than the Rambouillet according to the experiment staff of the Utah State Agricultural College. For the fourth year yearling ewes produced by range ewes bred to Columbia rams yieiaea more grease wool with longer staple than similiar yearlings sired by Rambouillet rams. The experiment data shows that the original range ewes have increased in pounds of lamb produced pro-duced per ewe each year from 1945 to 1943. However, experiment experi-ment station personnel state that more data are needed before the difference in lamb production per ewe can be definitely deter mined for the two crossbred types of sheep. The original range ewes have produced an average lamb weighing 80 pounds at weaning when bred to a Rambouillet ram and 83.4 pounds at weaning when bred to a Columbia ram. On an average 27 per cent of the Colum-bias Colum-bias and 11.6 per cent of the Rambouillets were graded fat by a commercial buyer from 1945-48. The Targhee lamb produced from Columbia first cross ewes appeared to be fatter than the Rambouillet sired lamb at wean ing time. Here again more datum is needed before definite conclusions are drawn as to the degree of difference between Columbia and Targhee sired lambs. More information on the experiment ex-periment may be obtained from the USAC experiment station or from Milton A. Madsen, ass't. professor of animal Husbandry at the college. The Utah Poultry and Farmers Cooperative is starting a Utah Good Egg Club.
