Show MILLARD COUNTY CHRONICLE Delta, Utah, Thurs., March 25,1954 So:isan Opens To Spray Weevil The pre-emergent spraying for alfalfa weevil control is close at hand. This early spraying season has already started in the warmer war-mer parts of Utah. It should he-gijp he-gijp in this county now as alfalfa fields are starting to show their first growth. The proper time for this early season spraying should he when the alfalfa reaches i to 1 inch in height. This control spray is aimed at destroying adult alfalfa weevil 'before 'be-fore they lay many eggs. Delaying De-laying the treatment until alfalfa becomes more than 2 inches tall gives the female weevils time to lay additional eggs. This is just what the control program aims to avoid. Proper timing and aplication of the right amount of insecticides will save two sprayings at a later date. 40 YEARS AGO FItOM THE FILES . . . LYXMIYL uY MARY JOHNSON I s UTAH tO)lTtA 3 a S3 O k.

The fatality record for the airlines was only 0.48 per j 100 mllion passenger miles as a gainst 2.80 for autos and taxis.

Landis Jr., and carrying Mrs, Landis and their little boy, the pine developed dev-eloped engine trouble over Lyn- ndyl, while flying at 10,000 feet. Pilot Landis took advantage of his more than 'mile-high altitude to glide to the airport without power. He lowered the landing gear as the plane was sailing a-bove a-bove the river, and the gear struck the north fence, breaking two posts and some wire.

It was this plane that was Involved in a fatal crash some weeks ago. Utah Aero News made some pointed remarks re-marks about the accident. It seems the Investigation developed the fact that the plane was not in safe flying condition, was not certificated, and probably had not been since It was stationed at Delta, and the flyer was not qualified qual-ified to pilot it. Aero News said, in part, "According to the pilot's log book, he had received no instruction ins-truction time in aircraft of this type, and had logged a total of less than 20 hours. He had been warned not to fly the airplane while it remained uncertificated nnd unairworthy. We simple cannot can-not Tinderstand the ignoring of these very vital laws."
