Agricultural Funds How Available Farmers in Millaid County are advised that additional ACP Funds are available at this time, through the concurrent operation of 1960 Agriculture Conservation Program with the 1959 program. Concurrent operations means having the State Program for two successive program years available during an overlapping overlap-ping period of time in the last half of the calendar year, during which iperiod practices performed are eligible el-igible for cost sharing under either program. Povisions applicable to the 1959 program will apply during this per iod of operations. The County Committee Com-mittee policy of $400.00 per form will still prevail, which means that if a farmer has already performed a practice with cost sharing in the amount of $400.00, will not be considered con-sidered at this time. The reason for such limitation is due to lack of program funds. Farmers previously signed up during the period when funds were not available, will be notified by letter of the provisions. i!en W.

It occurs rather frequently fre-quently all over Utah from June until un-til November, according to Dr. Don W. Thomas, Extension Veterinarian Veterina-rian with Utah State University, Logan. Lo-gan. He strongly advises that you have your horses vaccinated for brain fever now if you haven't had them done this year. It is necessary to vaccinate horses each year for maximum protection. Call your nearest veterinnarian. He Is the only on-ly person qualified to properly immunize im-munize your horses for brain fever. He explains that this disease Is caused by a virus. To complicate matters, there are four distinct strains of the virus. However, only two of the four strains occur in the United States. Both of these have been found in horses in Utah. This means that vaccines having both known strains should be used in most areas of the state. the former Dora Adams of Delta, and children Lois, 22, Alan. 19 and Marea, 13. win reside in Laie. Oafau. where Professor Jeppsen will return to the faculty of the Church College Col-lege of Hawaii. race. Riders are Cleo Christensen, Grant Hardy, Van Warnick, Parry Taylor, Cope Skeem and Ward Johnson. Each rider will enter 3 horses, bareback, and saddle, un saddle and saddle another mount as they race around the arena. Saturday morning the major event Is the program before the grandstand, sponsored by Millard County Farm Bureau. Dr. FJRoy Nelson, vice president and economist of the First Security Bank, will be the featured speaker. Dr. Nelson is a keen student of the problems of agriculture and is well acquainted with Millard County's agricultural status. He will have a message of vital importance for his audience Saturday morning. Winners of the Talent Find, sponsored spon-sored by the women's auxiliary of the Farm Bureau, will present numbers. num-bers. Concessions will be open both days, and children's sports are on the schedule for Saturday at 2 p.m. The big parade forms at 5:30, with floats from civic, church and business organizations, riders, school bands, clowns and novelties. novel-ties. Business houses in west Millard will all clos at S p.m. Saturday, Satur-day, and will remain closed until Monday morning, so that everyone may view tho par-ado. par-ado. Following the parade the crowd will again throng the grandstand and bleachers for the nighttime rodeo, when wild and wooly stock furnished by Swanee Kirby and riders rid-ers from the intermountain area will kick up a big dust in rodeo events. MILLARD COUNTY (Delta) , One Irrigation company exhausted exhaust-ed supplies July 1. Storage supply below normal fr the past 2 years. Mountain streams at a very low ebb. Storage supply as of August 1st for the West (Millard Irrigation Companies was 21,500 acre feet less than last year. Range conditions condi-tions poor will require feeding earlier this fall. Stock water supplies sup-plies adequate In most cases a few range water supplies dried up. Mostly dry feeding dairy cows. Grain supplements are used extensively. ex-tensively. Growth rate of sugar beets below normal due to late season planting and frot. Sugar beet farms have planned for adequate ade-quate water some had to rent water at $12.00 per foot. Alfalfa seed harvest started first week of August for first crop. He points out that this is a recent re-cent recommendation. Previously, vaccines with only one strain have been recommended. Practicing veterinarians vet-erinarians in the state are now using us-ing this newer method almost entirely. en-tirely. Dr. Thomas cautions horse owners own-ers to beware of cheap sources of brain fever vaccines. These have often proven to give poor protection. pro-tection. Brain fever is one disease which requires some technical knowledge and training to handle. For this reason he warns stockmen against heeding advertisements which indicate indi-cate that they can obtain the vaccines vac-cines and syringes and do their own vaccinating. Unless the vaccine Is placed between the layers of skin (intradermally)i not under the skin most of its effects are lost. Also the vaccine should be in date and be bi-valent (two strains). In most of these cases it is true that "the quality of protection obtained ob-tained Is generally govened by the cost involved," he says. IRON FOR PIGS Pigs need iron. By treating them with injections of Iron-dextrin, the growth rate, weaning weight and percentage of young pigs surviving surviv-ing can be increased. Pigs on pasture get some iron from the soil, but even here iron injections will help. Those pigs raised in confinement on concrete floors do not get sufficient iron in their diets to enjoy maximum health and gain satisfactorily. This element can be supplied in other forms, but the iron-dextrin, hog producers find that fewer pigs die from "thumps" (anemia) and other troubles. LEAMINGTON CELEBRATION Leamerado, annual Labor Day celebration at Leamington, calls all to Leamington Sept 7 for the morning morn-ing program, chuck wagon dinner, amateur rodeo and evening dance. Sponsored by the Leamington veterans, the celebration will be arranged ar-ranged by the same committee that served last Labor Day. Story and details next week. |
