DECECBER TAGS FOUR Tells of New 1935 Bv DWKT Station Bulletin Smut-Resista- It, Experiment Shows Food Value of Range Plants nt Wheat Winter ranges in Utah need supplemental feeds to insure the best red sults in feeding, says Dean E. J. of the Utah State Agriculture! college. This is due, in part, to the increase in the number ci range rheep. In 1850, there were 3,262 head of range sheep; while in ISC 3 the number was increased to 2,922,437 or an increase of 2,919,195 shec; according to the United States census of 1930 compiled by the Utah lead planning office. This rapid increase in range sheep covers a period of 80 years. "The cattle and shec- - in the state obtain 77 per cent of their feed by grazing. Of this, 14 per cant comes from farm pasture and controlled range, 18 per cent from national forests, and 68 per cent from the open public domain and other ranges, and it is quite evident that our ranges have reached their carrying capacity", "Relief, a new variety of hard red winter wheat resistant to most forms of covered smut occuring in Utah, is reported in a new bulliten just issued by the Utah Agricultural experiment station. This new wheat rwas developed by the agronomy de- partment of the experiment station by D. C. Tingey, associate agronomist and R. W. Woodward, junior division of cereal crops and diseases, bureau of plant industry, United States department of agriculture. ' "Produced by. hybridization, this new wheat resulted from a response to an urgent need for some more effective means of controlling the ser ious disease of wheat known as covered smut' or bunt. In addition to be ing resistant to forms of covered smut May-nar- agron-omvi- st which have caused such heavy losses to wheat farmers of central and northern Utah and southern Idaho, experiments have also shown that it appears equal in other respects such as yield, winter hardness, and straw strength to the best varieties now be ing grown in this region", the authors said Dean Maynard. - .'To correct thi: deficiency in forage on our desert range, we mpst fur- -' nish a correct supplement which cre" ates or produces a balanced ration. This balanced ration should give the most efficient use of range forage, "For example, alfalfa and corn is on Utah's desert ranges,. balanced ration: alfalfa fed with range sheep said.

While, if vou feed alfalfa with cottonseed cake vou are reeding an unbalanced cause both alfalfa and cottonreed cake are high in protein and, therefore, there is a lack of carbohydrates." . For many years Utah sheepmen have argued the comparative value of the two supplements, shelled corn or cottonseed cake as a supplement to desert range for wintering range sheep. "The only way to nolve the problem is to determine the nature of forage on the ranges." During thepast fwo' the supervision of Dean MfynardT and in cooperation with pfofes.ksC.
