Gives Urgent "Don'fs" On Kite Flying The "merrie month o March" lies just ahead with its traditional "three Ingredients" for fun- wind, kites, boys. The thrill of seeing his favorite "sky-flyer" soaring majestically majes-tically in the skies is one of the never-to-be-forgotten joys of American Am-erican youth. ' The pastime, howeveri has its hazards, and timely- warnings have been sounded "by Telluride Power Company, lest some injury results when flying kite in the close proximity of high power transmission trans-mission lines. ' In years gone by serious accidents accid-ents have resulted and in some cases deaths to daring boys have followed through contacting with kite strings the high powered transmission lines. ; To prevent fatalities and any minor accidents, heads of the power company have issued some mighty thoughtful safety "don'ts" for the kite fliers which should be studied by those who enjoy the sport of kite flying: Buy Nitrogen DERRAL CHRISTENSEN Phone 382J5 DELTA - - - UTAH VALUES MATTRESS SALE Serta Posture Reg. 59.50 NOW $39.83 - SPECIAL 1224 COIL REG. $59.50 YOU PAY THADti 15.UU $44.ai SERTA "PARK" AVE.

By attending Mexico City College, Col-lege, Charles Wallace Kernell, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Kernell of Delta, is experiencing the excitement ex-citement and .lovelty of living in a foreign country while furthering his formal education. He and his wife, Vada Ivie Kernell, and their children, Steve and Kathleen, arrived ar-rived in Mexico City last October. At Mexico City College, a nonprofit, non-profit, non - sectarian American type liberal arts college offering a B.A. and M.A. degree, students pursue studies in a wide variety of fields. Wallace is a graduate of Weber High School in Ogden and served in the navy for four years, Before) coming, to Mexico City College, where he is majoring In business administration, he studied at Brig-ham Brig-ham Young University. Most MCC students reside in downtown Mexico City, and many live in college-approved Mexican homes, combining classroom studies stu-dies with everyday Spanish. The Kernells have rented a home close to the college, and have found living and climate both most pleasant during their months in Mexico. They will return to Delta this spring, driving home the end of Wallace's second quarter quar-ter at the college. Better Heifers Need. More Feed .. First calf heifers in milk are all too often underfed, and the dairyman's dairy-man's income decreases because of lack. of understanding of her needs. We used to think years ago that it cost about $65 to raise a heifer to the freshening period. We know today that it costs at least double that nmftiin r ilpnendins on 'breed, area, and feeds used. Certainly the heifer does not return any profit at all before the second lactation, and the average production life or a dairy cow is onlly 4 years. Therefore, it is important that the dairymen give the better hellers, raised from replacements, the greatest possible chance to grow to good size. Hpffers should freshen from two to two and a half years of age. Ample good quality roughage and a little grain the last six weeks should give them a good start, in nwt tiprria ComDutine Ser vice machines are set to compute feedine eruides at one pound oi. grain to be fed daily ior eacn live pounds of butterfat produced the Drecedine month.

Black Postmaster, Delta, Utah Many times each day we at the Delta Post Office hear the statement state-ment "No letter today" that is too bad, but in many instances you would have had a lettter today If only the sender would have been a little more careful In addressing or stamping your mail. Perhaps a few suggestions to the Delta Office patrons will help in reducing the number of dead letters which come through this office each year. A recent check showed 59,220 dead letters in one year at the Salt Lake City Post Office. - Those who would make certain that their outgoing mail is neither sent to the dead letter office nor returned for additional postage need only observe these few simple sim-ple rules; 1. Write legibly, 2. Be sure the address Is correct, written in full, without abbreviations, abbreviat-ions, 3. Put your return address in the upper left-hand corner. 4. Use postal zone number if applicable. 5. Weigh the letter or package, if : necessery, to assure enough postage. . If everyone followed those easy rules, tons of dead letter mail burned every year would reach those for whom the mall was Intended, It is very Important to clearly write the names of States in full because names of towns and cities are duplicated so many times. There are 27 communities in the Upited States bearing the name Of Clinton; 26, Cheste : 23, Lincoln; 20, Jamestown; 19, Auburn; 5, Delta, etc. The abbreviation "Ut" for Utah is easily misread "Vt" for Vermont, and so Utah residents should be sure to spell out the name of their state.

Eating up U.S. Farm Surpluses A growing population and an expanding ex-panding economy promise that eventually demand for U. S. farm products will catch up with the bountiful supply that modern machinery and Improved farm practices have made possible. But it will take at least five years, maybe longer, sav Utah Staff. Agricultural College economists. Most parents have had the experience ex-perience of trying to get a little child to eat more than he seems to want more of things that are "good for him". His demand never seems to match the supply of wholesome food provided. Then, suddenly, when further efforts seems futile, natur takes care of the problem by transforming the child Into a voracious teen-ager with an appetite equal to anv surplus situation. Roughly the same sort of situation situa-tion exists in regard to eating ud U. S. farm surpluses. The appetite of our populaton can be expected to grow as time passes, but we can't be sure how long It will take to catch up with supply. It will probably take at least five years, say the farm economists, but it may take longer, depending upon (he speed with which farmers make some necessary adjustments and the extent to which further adoption of Improve farm method1 may Increase supplies. Farmers Save by Soil Tests Utah irrigation farmers can save money 'by getting soil tests to guide them in applying fertilizer. The USDA-USAC Cooperative Soi1 Testing Laboratory at Logan offers this service for $X per sample. "We make fertilizer recommendations recommen-dations on every sample," explain.' James P. Thome, soil scientist in charge of the laboratory. "Lots of farmers are not using phosphate where they should; others are putting it on where they don't need it. Both are losing money." - A farmer can check on as much as 10 acres of land with a single sample. If help and guidance In taking soil samples are needed contace Marven 3. Ogden, Ass't County Agricultural Agent, Delta. The soil testing laboratory handles han-dles about 8,000 soil samples a year. ' Farmers should allow at least a week for testing of his samples. Good Time Now for Pest Control Pest control does not end with winter, reminds Marven J. Ogden, Ass't. County Agricultural Agent. Cattle lice, cattle grubs, poultry lice, sheep ticks, clothes moths, carpet beetles, cockroaches, bedbugs, bed-bugs, and food beetles are just a few of the insect problems which may need attention, often 'being it t, ''..

Beekeepers should check -to see that beehive entrances are not sealed by ice or snow following the occurrence of heavy snows. Also, some livestock owners may need to treat certain animals fori earticks. Warm periods in winter are fine to put the farm spray and duster equipment in good condition for spring post control. Equipment not! "ready to roll' when it is needed often has resulted in serious insect pest injury to crops. . New Insecticide for Cattle Grub A new insecticide which can be given by mouth shows promise of helping farmers working together to get rid of grubs in. beef cattle according to Dr. Don W. Thomas, extension veterinarian at Utah StPte Agricultural College. Dr. Thomas said the new systemic sys-temic insecticide, Dow ET-57 has 'ieen tested in Oregon and Texas. Me said it may be ready for commercial com-mercial use in beef cattle in two "vr three vears. However, it will V dangerous to use in dairy cattle because residues of the poison-are ound in milk. Dr. Thomas said that meanwhile nly rotenone, Used externally as din. sn'ay or dust, is . recommended recom-mended for controlling grubs. .

He predicated that he systemic insecticide will be more readi'v adopted on an area asis and thus should prove more effective in controlling grubs than 'he present retenone methods. Cattle grubs cause an annual loss to U. S. producers of approxi mately $200,000,000. ' " cv -Card fJ Thdriks. ' .
