Persons of all ages Tuesday became eligible for Salk Polio vaccine in Utah. The no age ruling was announced Tuesday by the Utah State Board of Health which contributes the larger volume of production of yaccine for making it possible. Anyone now desiring to receive polio vaccine need only make arrangements with their physician. It is noted by the local doctors, however, that vaccine is no longer available from the State Board of Health under the 'federal purchase plan and must now be purchased from pharmaceutical by them houses which will necessitate increasing the amount for each shot to $3.00. Vaccine was previously purchased through federal grants and furnished to doctors without cost. Federal funds have now been exhausted. It is urged by Arvin L. Bellon, Duchesne County Polio Chapter Chairman, that all. persons up to 30, particularly, have vaccinations. Many' recent cases throughout the state have been in the young adult group from 20 to 30 years of age. Also those who have not yet finished their series of three shots should certainly complete them at the designated time in order to assure them of maximum FERGUSON ASSIGNED HERE BY HIGHWAY PATROL LEONARD Leonard Ferguson, Navy veteran and former highway patrol radio dispatcher at Provo, has been assigned to the patrols Vernal dis- trict.

Fall Irrigation Is Recommended By Soil Experts 15 Where water is available, farmers should seriously consider irrigating in the fall, advises Lloyd Smith, Duchesne Districe agricultural agent. On lands where there is no crop, soil can be filled with moisture in the fall and it will remain there and be availble for spring d planting. It would be well to the fall irrigation with fall plowing. Dr. Paul D. Christensen, extension soil conservationist at Utah State Agricultural College, says fall, irrigation has distinct advantages. Fall moisture can be used. Irrigation following plowing will help to prepare the seed bed the following year. Also, it will insure adequate moisture in the entire root zone for the spring planting. The irrigation can be done during slack periods. It permits immediate planting in the spring. It gets the crop off to a good start in the spring. It is also well to consider fall irrigation of alfalfa. This is true particularly if irrigation can be done early enough to allow the few inches of surface soil to dry out and largely eliminate danger of winter freezing, of the surface soil and winter killing. Fall irrigation can also be used to good advantage to leach salty and al.gali pre-cee- soils. SEVEN COUNTIES IN UTAH GIVEN DISASTER LISTING and 16. According to Ezra J.
