The data received supplied 105 acres with an average yield of 66 bushels to the acre. These yields aren't particularly high, but apparently ap-parently the farmers feel they are better than would be produced with barley. It would appear from the comments com-ments that most of the fields were planted too thick. I assume this happened because the wrong planting plant-ing plates were used. I would suggest sug-gest that if a farmer is going to stay in the Milo business, it would be well worth while to purchase a set of plates specifically for Milo. A number of individuals commented com-mented on bird damage, which is to be expected. I know of no solution so-lution to this problem. The matter of excessive height was apparently a problem' with a number of growers. I would expect that this could be controlled by regulating the irrigation interval early in the growing season. We have found with corn that height and irrigation frequency are very closely correlated. Marven J. Ogden, County Agent 3-Year-0!d Is 1960 Dimes Poster Girl Mary Beth Pyron is the 1960 Post Girl in the March of Dimes. Mary Beth is a three old of Florence, Flo-rence, Alabama. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Thomas Pyron are both registered pharmacists. She has an older brother, Thomas, aged five. Mary Beth is a victim of spina bifida. In simple language, it means somewhere along the course of pre-natal growth a segment of her spine failed to develop properly. Connection between the brain and the nerves controlling the lower part of her body was never completed, com-pleted, leaving her legs paralyzed. The prognosis for Mary Eeth is uncertain. At present, there is no known way to restore the action of the nerves in the lower half of her body. Although there is little that can be done for Mary Beth as far as a "cure" is concerned research re-search can possibly help some future fu-ture member of our society.

No Increase of TB n Millard County Although there was 13 increase in-crease in new cases of tuberculosis among Utah residents last year, Millard County did not have an increase, it was announced by West Millard Tuberculosis and Health Association. Most of teh increase came from more populace counties. coun-ties. Even with less TB in Millard County last year, residents must be alert to the fact that the disease is found throughout the state and since it is a communicable disease all must support those who are carrying out tuberculosis control programs. It is recommended that every child and young adult receive a tuberculin test once a year. If the test is positive, periodic chest X-rays X-rays should be taken. Older adults are advised to obtain a chest X-ray X-ray at least once each year also. Once again our sincere thanks for the support you have given our drive.
