IS BEING INVESTIGATED Tomato crops in the Basin and throughout the state are greatly decreased this year due to curly top or Western Yellow Blight, which struck most of the fields, drying up the plants. In response to a letter from A. W. Clemens, Duchesne plant grower, the U. A. C. experiment station sends the following letter: The tomato disease you inquire about in your letter of July 20 is known as curly top (Western Yellow Blight). It is the same dis ease as the well known sugar beet curl top disease only on a different host, the tomato. The disease is carried into cultivated areas and disseminated among the plants of susceptible hosts by the white fly or sugar beet leafhopper (Eutettix tenellus) Baker. That insect breeds freely all over this western desert area. It breeds very abundantly in southern Utah and that breeding area was particularly heavily populated by the insects this spring.

Television contests will feature the show. All in all, of the scientific the exhibition marvel of the day will provide fun, excitement, thrills and education for Utahns. Utah Products Exhibited Exhibits of Utah products and the handicraft of its men, women and youth will go on view in all the multiplicity of departmental displays. Theres every reason to boast of state fair exhibits. Always they represent the best in the states productive resources and this year will tell no different story as to scope and variety, plus quality. The livestock department this year offers a new exhibit in the form of a showing of purebred bulls from various counties of the state. It aims to show what Utah breeders are doing in raising the standard of dairy and beef cattle, considered by many to offer best hope for future prosperity. Fine awards await the winners among the county exhibits. Horse and Dog Shows From the standpoint of agricultural and horticultural exhibits,1 livestock generally, mines and mining, manufacturers, fine and applied arts, fish and game, farm machinery and the youth and womens activities, the 1940 fair bids fair to eclipse all others. So, too, do the horse and dog shows give promise of great things in store for canine and equine lovers. The biggest of all fair dog show entry lists is certain, while horse show managers predict a list of blueblooded animals that will give horsemen their finest opportunities for Coliseum exhibitions.

J. Julian, president of the Better Vision Institute. Extensive studies have shown that two important factors are involved in defective vision (jj the physical and (2) the mental. A child who cannot see well cannot see well cannot read and carry on his tasks easily at school. Correcting such defects naturally facilitates education of children. However, says Mr. Julian, the eyes have an important effect upon the nervous system and the mental states of the child. Headaches and nerous irritability are caused by defective eyes. Frequently undesirable social habits, including juvenile delinquency, can be traced to uncorrected visual defects. Poor eyes definitely tend to make difficult children out of some youngsters. Several authorities go so far as to say that failure to correct visual defects in children is an important factor in One calls attention to truancy. the fact that a substantial part of the Inmates of reform schools have defective vision. He points out that a child who cannot see wel finds it difficult to adjust himself with others and frequently becomes a rebellious child. "Eyesight surveys have indicated that about 20 out of every 100 school children in the United States have visual defects, many Thus of which are uncorrected. it would appear that the visual welfare of children is one of the outstanding problems of American education today. Mass Population Movements Prior to the Nineteenth century, movements important migratory were due to mass expulsion, says a study of Population and Peace, published by the Columbia University Press. About a quarter ot a million Huguenots left France after 1685, and as many as 20,000.000 Africans were transported to the New world. i vr FULLS JUST AHEAD1 Just around the cor- ner are many days of disagreeable weather Yes! disagreeable for our cars as well as ourselves.
