Utah Power talks about your electric power: Without electricity for irrigation, much of this areas food production and economy would be left high and dry. Water. Here, it means the difference between a bumper crop, a very poor one or none at all. And Utah Power would like to talk to you about the part electricity plays in bringing water to area farms and ?? ranches. Right now, for example, some six thousand acres in hundred seventy-fiv- e Utah Power & Lights service area are thousand irrigated, and about twenty-fiv- e new acres are being brought under cultivation every year. Electric pumps supply water to feed irrigation canals, and mobile sprinkling systems to irrigate the fields. It takes a lot of water . . . and a lot of electricity. In fact, the amount of electric power needed for irrigation has more than doubled in the last 10 years, adding substantially to Utah Power & Lights peak demand. These crops are important to the food supply of the nation and the economy of this area. And it takes water and electricity to make the crops and the economy grow. And, since youre a customer, you have a right to know what agriculture asks of Utah Power in this area. f'Vs .vVAv. V y.V V '' i I C t A A AA 'U . A ' tV A A . i V V 1 i.

Livestock Producers Aid Available producers can credit assistance from the federal Farmers Home Administration, a rural credit service of the U.S. Department Livestock now get of Agriculture, Senator Wallace F. Bennett, said today. The agency will guarantee R-Ut- ah, up to 80 percent of losses on loans made by private lending institutions to farmers and ranchers who depend on livestock for the major portion of their income, he said. The guarantees will be made when the livestock producer is threatened with disaster but cannot obtain financing needed to survive, Sen. Bennett explained. Corporations or partnerships are eligible for the guarantee only if primarily engaged in the livestock business. The Farmers Home Administration has been author- ized to guarantee up to $2 billion in loans, said Sen. Bennett. Each loan must be repaid within three years, although a two year renewal may be authorized. The maximum sum any one borrower will be guaranteed is $250,000. Interest rates will be determined between the lender and borrower, he said. |
