Recommending creases in expenditures below both current appropriations and budget estimates' for the next year, the annual-supply bill for the interior department was reported to the house, calling for expenditures of $226,473,-000- . . "This would he $7,700,000 below current funds and $G10,000 less than budget figures. Utah appropriations recommended included: For maintenance and continuation of construction of Strawberry Valley project, $39,000. For continued investigation, construction of reservoirs and canals on Salt Lake Basin project, the unexpended balance of any appropriation made in last year's bill. For continuing construction of lateral distributing systems and to maintain existing irrigation systems from the Uncompahgre Uinta and White River Ute3, $13,000. For aid: of public' schools in Uinta anj, Duchesne county school districts, $0000,. to be paid from tribal funds of the .c.iaderated bands of Ute Indians. .

The largest amount called for would be $193,921,000 for pensions. Included in the reductions under last year's totals were one of $5,000,000 in the. amount of pensions; $2,258,000 for the reclamation service, $301,000 for general land offices, and $373,000 for Howard university, the negro school In Washington, D. C. While the reclamation fund also would show a reduction, the bill would $3,000,- approximately 000 unexpected for the present year. Resumption of construction of the Fla'thead irrigation project in Mon tana was recommended and $575,000 would be allotted for the purpose. Continuation of the Sun river project 'in Montana, and Owyhee and Baker projects in Oregon, would be provided for. Abandonment and sale of the Belle Fourche, South Dakota, project was urged by the committee, which said Its further development gave no promise of success under existing conditions. The total allotment for reclamation would be $7,741,000. For the national park service $3,G9S,OC0 was recommended,' an increase of $4S0,00O, made necessary to" carry out the road construction program authorized by the last' congress.

This was done by men employed by the experiment station, says a writer In the Wisconsin Farmer. In 1923 the average cost of producing 100 pounds of milk was $1.00 and the cost of producing a pound of was 50 cents. The average price received that year by these producers was $2.39 per 100 pounds of milk and C8 cents per pound of butter fat, showing 23 cents margin on milk and 12 cents margiji on fat over costs. In 1924 the average cost of producing milk was $2.25, and each pound of buterfat cost 02 cents to produce, while the dairymen received $2.33 per 100 pounds of milk and Co cents for a pound of butterfat. This cut their margins to six cents and three cents. Good home-growcrops of grain and forages help a great deal to lower the expenses in the feed bill, and wise buying of the necessary additional feed Items helps to reduce the cost some more. Labor amounted to about 25 per cent of the costs, and It was reckoned at only 20 cents an hour. Milk hauling and pasture costs amounted to about 6 per cent of all costs. Men conducting milk routes found It cost $3.42 for each 100 pounds of milk, but the return was proportionate to costs in most cases. The cost of cow keeping was $224 a head with one farm where milk was taken to a city route. The average cost of keeping a cow on all the farms was $142 a year. Cows averaging lesa than 200 pounds fat formed herds which were losers In this Intensive dairy region. Those making 220 to 250 pounds and over were on the profit side for their owners. two-yea- Flood conditions threaten stretched a big to Chicago. follow In the wake of heavy rain over carriage robe and warm weather that Is causing the outspread snow to melt throughout the middle-wesarm of the The storm was centered over and "horse," the country between the Rocky Mounmade a tent In which many rainy mornings were tains and the Missouri river and la moving eastward. spent.

Stockmen of southern Utah are not feeling seriously the effects of the fall drought, according to a report made by J. N. Veater of who came to the Salt Lake Union stockyards with a consignment of catle for northern Utah feedlots. Fear was expressed early in the fall that lack of moisture would hamper stock on winter ranges, but so far, Mr. Veater says, no difficulty ha In some sections, been experienced. however, particularly In the territory west from Salt Lake City in Nevada, sheepmen are bemoaning the lack of snow, which makes It necessary to trail sheep a considerable distance to water. Southern Utah sheepmen are not noticing this condition on their ranges. All stock in southern Utah Is in good shape, Mr. Veater adds.
