This report is the result of an Investigation of the San Pitch River drainage basin, and completes a study of the ground- Farmers: Do You Know Insecticides? Utah Slate Dept. of Agriculture has received many requests for Information In-formation regarding Insecticides that have been used In Millard County on alfalfa and alfalfa seed crops. The Information received from Supervisor of Plant Industry, Ray J. Downs is as follows: 1 Bidnn-Use on seed crops only. Do not feed Bidrin treated plants or ensilage made from treated plants to poultry, dairy animals, or animals being finished for slaughter. slaugh-ter. Do not permit animals to graze on treated fields. Do not use on forage to be sold commercially. Do not use screenings for pellets or other feed formulations. 2 Phosdrin-May be used up to within one day of harvesting al falfa. 3 Systemic-Specifications vary with type of material. a Systox-Do not apply within basin that was started in 1956 by the U. S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Utah Department Depart-ment of Natural Resources, Division Divi-sion of Water Rights. Water from wells In Sanpete and Arapien Valleys is used for Irrigation Irriga-tion to supplement the available surface-water supply. Thus, In 1965, a year of above-normal precipitation, precipita-tion, the discharge from wells was 12,000 acre-feet; whereas In 1966, a year of below-normal preclpita-ticn, preclpita-ticn, the wells discharged 21,000 acre-feet. By contrast, the discharge from springs during 1966 was estimated esti-mated to be 36,000 acre-feet; and an additional 95,000 acre-feet of water was consumed In wet meadow mea-dow areas which support growths of plireatophytes (water-loving plants). An estimated 25-30 percent of the water consumed yearly by these phreatophytes could be salvaged sal-vaged by lowering water levels in the wet meadows of the drainage basin. The lowering of water levels, however, not only would dry up some of the wet meadow areas, but also would stop the flow of some existing wells and reduce the quantity of seepage into the San Pitch River. Water levels In the valley show little long-term effect due to the pumping of wells. Thus from the overall standpoint, discharge from the ground-water reservoir has not exceeded recharge. Approximately 3 million acre-feet of water could be pumped from storage in the To Honor Couple At Ileception Mr. and Mrs. Homer U.

Building, Salt Lake City, Utah, and at the Utah Department of Natural Millard Paintings Exhibited at Fair Ten oil paintings were on exhibit at the state fair from Millard County as part of the Utah Art Carousel for senior residents. Pictures on display there were painted by Mrs. Myrtis Bennion, Mrs. Ora Gardner, Mrs. Viola Law, Mrs. Ruth Steele, Mrs. Clara Stewart, Ste-wart, and Mrs. Sebrina Ekins from the M. E.

Art exhibits were held at both centers last May to win the right for state exhibiting. Winners at the Delta May exhibit were Mrs. Laura Lyman, Mrs. Jer-dine Jer-dine Rawlinson, Mrs. Stewart, Mrs. Law, Mrs. Bennion and Mrs. Gardner. Gard-ner. (Mrs. Lyman and Mrs. Rawlinson Rawlin-son were too young for the Salt Lake exhibit.) The pictures at Fillmore Fill-more were not judged but were selected by Mr. Dallas Rogers, director di-rector for the state entry.

The employment furnished in the mill should be a big boost to the economy of this entire area. The additional tax money derived from this operation shoud help main tain our schools and other services allowed more weight per axle on interstate and primary roads. We should work to obtain cheap, plentiful natural gas, better air service, and better bus and passenger passen-ger train service. We should work to retain the railroad spur from Delta to Fillmore. INDUSTRIAL Every efforts should be made to bring in new industry and develop, more fully industry which is presently pres-ently located in Millard County. Industry In-dustry should be kept separated from schools, churches and residen-tail residen-tail areas, however. Fillmore should provide streets, water and power to the city industrial park west of the north part of town. Schools should provide training for industrial jobs. Effort should be made to prove ample water for industry in available avail-able from underground wells. The whole County should be unified in helping each area develop commercial commer-cial water as needed. Farming is still Millard County's biggest industry and farmers need to fix fences and clean up and paint their farms to increase value and instill pride in farming. Farm areas should be zoned only for farming to keep values from raising rais-ing taxes beyond a farmer's ability to pay. (110 miles) should be made into a good bass fishing stream. We need good paved roads up our better canyons so their beauty can be enjoyed by tourist and local citizens citi-zens alike. Historical points of interest should be publicized and improved to a greater extent. Members of the committee were Howard Nielson, Chairman; Arnold Ashurst, Secretary; Newell Mitchell, John Cooper, LaVar Peterson, Paul McBride, Howard Roundy, Philip Smith, Boyd Schena, LaVar Cox, G.

' ' : i- our rates have not gone up -we're still holding the line in our fight against inflation Fact is, we've offset inflationary pressures for the present, at least. We've done it by taking advantage of a special provision in the Federal income tax law. The law is complex, but its effect is to permit us to depreciate our properties more rapidly, reducing the amount of tax paid. Most other electric utilities in the west are now using this accelerated depreciation. And the Public Service Commissions have been very helpful in working with us to make this change promptly to avoid any rate increases. Resisting higher prices isn't easy. But we consider it our duty to have available all the electricity our customers Art all need at a price as low as we can keep it. vuwill THE FOLKS AT UTAH POWER & LIGHT CO. |
