Well I found out that Tuesday they accompanied Ed and Celia Christensen over to Wayne Wonderland and they report that it is really worth going to see. This time of the year it is so j beautiful, what with the autumn colors. It makes us all want to j take off to the hills and see the ' wonders of nature, i Most every able bodied man and a lot of the women too have done I just that, this past few days, but with an eye single to the vital spot on a deer thru the sights of a gun. But a lot of us just saw the scenery. Sure, I went too. Weil talking about Peter and Insa again, they took off Thursday Thurs-day and went to Salt Lake, where, Inga had her eyes attended too. She wasn't as lucky as Earl and Irene Stanworth, I've since found out that two of those doctors who visited last weekend, were eye I specialists ana one was a reaia- trition and only one a dentist, in the party. That sure put Earl and Irene on the independent end of It cause they've all got good eye sight and their 'babies are almost grown up so only the Dentist could I of found much to do with that family. Wi'll anvwav the Petersons came home Sunday and they saw so many cars and trucks on the road loaded with deer that they are afraid there's no more left in the mountains. Sunday evening Royal Gardner, the Boy Scout who attended the big Scout Jamboree in Canada, was the speaker in Sacrament meeting. It was very interesting. Mr. and "Mrs. Val Styler are spending Tuesday and Wednesday In Salt Lake City and Bountiful. Mr. and Mrs. Lemoine Bond and family from Salt Lake were visitors at the Nichol's home over the week end and the men folks went hunting. hunt-ing. I didn't even ask if they got their deer. Mrs. Gloria Martin and three children from Salt Lake arrived Sunday and are spending the week visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. David Nichols. Our sympathy goes out to Mrs. Bunker and her family. We read of things happening in other parts of the country but we don't fully realize what it's all about until it happens to our friends and neighbors. neigh-bors. So a little more worry has been added for the safety of our men folks out on the hunt, and we hope, a little more caution will be used by them, than is their usual practice. Mr. and Mrs. Grant Pratt and sons, Don and Dean, of Cropper Lane, made a trip to Wendell, Ida. They left early Friday morning and returned home Monday evening. eve-ning.

In the first quarter the playing was done entirely on Richfield'3 first 40 yards. On the kickoff Richfield ran the ball up to the 40 yd. line and after 4 plays, Delta took over and got back down to the 21 vd. line in two Dlavs. Here they were thrown for a loss of 8 yds. and Richfield took the ball up to the 40 again. Delta's i defense held and again Delta took posession on Richfield's forty, j Delta managed to get it down to the 17 yd. line before the gun went off. The second quarter saw Richfield doing most of the running and offensive playing. On the kick-off j Gerald Finlinson ran it back to the 4 yd. line in three consecutive plays. Sampson took it over, but was piled up and fumbled the ball. Richfield downed it and it was scored as a touchback. In the third quarter the tables started to turn and Larry Bradfield ran the kick-off 35 yds. to the 40 yd. line of Delta. Sampson took it down to the 32 and Gerald Finlinson took it from there for a TD. Sampson went over for the extra point and Delta went ahead 7 to C. In the fourth quarter, however, Delta practically monopolized the playing. Both teams were pena lized, but Delta was called offsides off-sides three times. This didn't seem to have much effect on their playing, though, because on a long from Cole, Cahoon went over untouched un-touched for the second touchdown for Delta. Then on a long run by Sampson and several by Finlinson, Finlinson Finlin-son took it over for the third TD and Sampson successfully ran the extra point. One of the lig highlights in the game came when Joe Brumley intercepted in-tercepted a pass and ran 30 yds. for the fourth and final touchdown touch-down of the game for Delta. It seems that fight and endurance endur-ance really paid off for the Rabbits Rab-bits in the 4th quarter. Next Friday Delta will play its final football game of the season at Delta at 1:30 p. m. There will be programs and a loudspeaker, so we'll see you there. by Dorothy Morrison, reporter.

Conservationist This year limited tillage has doubled the yield of barley or corn on the farms of Fred Turner, Hugh Hilton, and Wells Robison. Limited tillage is a system of farming worked out by Karl Harris in Arizona and introduced into the Delta Soil Conservation District two years ago. We had hoped that it would increase yields by 20 to 30 but the results have far exceeded ex-ceeded our expectations. On these three farms where the application and results have been carefully checked, the yield has increased by double, and the cost of equipment and labor has been reduced considerably. Mr. Robinson estimates a reduction in labor on his grain crop of 20-30 per cent. High yield increases at less cost. The secret of the amazing success suc-cess of this practice is the fact that it brings into balance the five major factors which control soil productivity. They are (1) soil water, (2) soil air, (3) plant foods, (4) toxic conditions (salt, alkali and gas given off by plant roots), (5) soil temperature. A brief outline of the recommended recommen-ded practices and results are as follows: 1. Plow below compacted layer. Fall plowing is much better than spring plowing. Vary plowing depth. 2. Air put as long as possible before irrigating. 3. Return all possible organic matter to the soil a. Plant residue, re-sidue, b. Animal manure c. Green manure. 4. Crop rotation a. Alfalfa (Note: on very heavy soil, plant grass with the alfalfa and eliminr ate the row crops.) b. Corn or beets, c. Small grain. 5. Give one heavy (12") pre-plantlng pre-plantlng irrigation, then follow up with light ones (4-5"). 6. Do minimum amount of preparation pre-paration on land between plowing rl if ' i I '$ K U Ml i! f f i. .if t. if THE CLUTCH COAT BY KAY McDOWELL ccpo-collcred . . . fasliion-erifclding Show that you know thte fashion iopes wrap yourself in Kay McDowell's lovely new dutch coat!

Results of the Limited Tillage Wells Robinson's farm 1 This land had been planted to grain for two years (1953, 1954) after plowing up a poor crop of alfalfa. The yield had been 20 to 30 bushels per acre. The land was fall plowed and irrigated with a foot of water. Nothing more was done until Spring. In March, part of the land was harrowed lightly j and drilled, and the remaining land was just drilled to grain. It came up and grew until May on the water stored In the soil. Light irrigations were given the grain, one in May and the other in late June or early July. These practices resulted in: 1. Better stand of grain than previously pre-viously obtained. 2. Early planting was not difficult diffi-cult because most of the land preparation pre-paration had been done in the fall. 3. Yield was double that of any previous year (estimated average of 70 bushels per acre,) even though it was the third continuous year in grain and no fertilizer wai applied. 4. Land after crop was grown was much looser than it has been in previous years. 5. More organic matter as straw to go back into the ground. 6. Estimated 30 per cent less work to grow the crop. No weed problem in crop because be-cause earlier planting with no irrigation ir-rigation until crop was large enough to shade out weeds. 8. Only three irrigations were needed instead of five, as previously previou-sly given. fStory on Hugh Hilton and Fred Turner farms to follow the next two weeks.) |
