COMMUNICATIONS A FAITHFUL OFFICER Salt Lake City, Feb. 9, 1929. It has come to my attention that rumors have been circulated in Box Elder county to the effect that during my term as state game commissioner, James Hull, deputy game warden in Box Elder county, trapped all the beaver out of Bear river and that no proper accounting was made to the state game department. I presume that, as usual, these stories are for political purposes and even the person responsible for their circulation does not believe them, but for the benefit of some who might have been misinformed I wish to state that in the first place James Hull trapped Teh beaver no beaver whatever. were trapped on the lower Bear river under authorization of the state game commissioner on the properties of John Garmer, Mr. Christensen, Dan Reeder, and others, where they were doing damage. They were taken by experienced trappers, forwarded to Burnsright the state game department and sold as provided by law. James Hull or no other deputy gaue warden had anything to do with the handling or disposition of the hides. James Hull has been a faithful servant of the people during his term of deputy game warden in Box Elder county and deserves the hgihest praise for his work. He is responsible for the information which led to the construction of the public shooting grounds and has been a tireless worker in its development and maintenance. During the time that he has been deputy game warden the state of Utah has spent approximately $75,000 in Box Elder county for the development of the fish and game resources of that county. The fish ponds, which are under the direct supervision of Mr. Hull, have turned out some of the finest fish to be planted from any of the rearing ponds in the state. Due to the activities of the game department in Box Elder county the feasibility of the construction of the great Bear River Bird Refuge was made known and this will result in the expenditure of perhaps more than a half million dollars during the next few years. In all this work James Hull has had a part and whether or not he is to be retained as game warden, he at least deserves the credit for having faithfully performed every duty required of him while in office.

MADSEN. HEALTH CLINIC FEB. 22 Are the health clinics of value to our community? Are you taking advantage of this service that will assist you in the health and future welfare of your child? Good health should be the heritage of every child. Sometimes slight defects or improper diet have retarded the mental and physical development. This means a handicap to the child in school oftimes a hindrance which makes them unable to be efficient scholars. Then we blame the school, the teacher, or the child. The last clinics held in Tremonton did not receive sufficient support to justify this service. Free clinics are placed in the various localities at considerable cost and if they are not patronized must be discontinued and placed where parents will use the advantages given them through these health clinics. On Feb. 22 Dr. Wilson will hold a age clinic in the basement pre-scho- ol Carefully Graded Lumbe? of the L. D. S. church and upon the patronage of this will depend the decision as to the continuation of this service. Will not the parents of children of age make every effort to have their children examined? It may mean much in the life of your child. A SUBSCRIBER. pre-scho- ol SUCCESSFUL FARMING I am always interested in reading of the methods used by other farmers in producing good yields. Methods are judged by results, just like "trees are judged by their fruits," so I thought I would write a short article telling about it. I grew a little over 27 tons of sugar beets per acre on 11 acres in 1928 and 18 tons per acre the year before. Also had 107 bushels of Trebi barley per acre, 304 pounds red clover seed per acre, and 65 bushels of wheat per acre. I have found on this heavy clay land I get best results by planting beans or barley cn the new alfalfa or clover land, then manuring the stubble and plowing deep in the fall. During the winter I top dress when the snow is on the ground, hauling out every few days and keeping the corrall cleaned as nearly as possible. I like this winter manuring because it gets that work out of the way. Even though the manure is coarse, it helps to keep the land from crusting and holds the moisture. This work being done in the winter, all I have to do when spring comes is to prepare my seed bed. This method permits me to grow two or three good crops of beets before changing. I aim to plant all crops just as early as the land is fit. , Last year I planted grain between the 20th and 25th of March; beets 21 pounds per acre. Plenty April of seed is another thing I believe in for all crops. I have my beets thinned just as soon as they are large enough. In that way I can usually get good help, and have the work done right. I try to have at least 100 beets per 100 feet, then if a few are destroyed I still have plenty. I never save on the cultivating. It pays to cultivate often, and a little This holds the deeper each time. moisture, cools the ground, and seems to stimulate the beets. Irrigation is also important. I never have any fixed dates or rule, only just never allowing any crop to get dry or suffer. I would rather be a few days too early than too late. Another important thing about the soil is to have it well drained. A few years ago our land was waterlogged. We finally agreed to organize a drainage district and install tile dines, doing a thorough job and results were soon noticeable. I would advise draining sections which have high water tables. The increased yields and the satisfaction cf farming when it ought to be done will soon pay the expense. 5-- 6, SAM MOKTENSEN. Wilson Lumber Co.
