Agricultural NEWS OF THE INTERMOUNTAIN BUSY SEASON TtaiMits oiiRurallife BOYS DOING HEARING FOR BETTER WORK Utah and Idaho Livestock States DEVICE NEW We. frequently get an erroneous Impression of the relative Importance of the crops, livestock or other products of the state. Utah and Idaho have an undeniabklfuture farming, particularly In the production of Mle higher grade products of farm, truck garden and orchard. The products of these states are unexcelled in quality. In any line of production which our climate permits us to develop,' we can, speaking generally, product the equal of any region . on earth, and at the same time can produce prollfically, equaled In this respect by only a few other regions. The onions, celery, hay, peaches, alfalfa seed, beans, peas, potatoes, bush fruits and cherries, to mention only a few of the many prod- -. ucts of one or the other, of these states, can take their place at the top of any market. All that is needed is quantity production and effective grading and packing to bring results, granting a sufficient market demand. But admitting this condition, Utah and Idaho after all are livestock states. This is the home of alfalfa., the king of forage Crops. Our naturally alkaline soils make a high tonnage of this extraordinary plant easily possible. Sunshine, abundant in these dry and fairly high altitudes, puts a nutritional and vitamin content into the alfalfa which makes it highly nutritious. We have, therefore, in alfalfa a natural and the greatest livestock feed. Add to this our ability to produce the fattening grains and we have a very desirable combination for the development of livestock on the farm, particularly dairying. Slate Fairs Dynamometer Due to Register Many Contests. Thirty days of active participation In the program of fifteen fairs and covering 2000 miies of territory are scheduled by the Utah State Fair authorities (or the fair's dynamometer in arranging for the 1929 draft horse pulling matches. The first matches wUl be held at the Uintah Basin Industrial conference, August 7. and the dynamometer will be taken to fourteen other exhibitions during the ensuing period, ending at the Utah State Fair, Octohs ber 10. Dean Kenneth C. Ikeler of the school of agriculture at the UUh State Agricultural college characterizes the pulling matches as one of the outstanding means of Improving draft horses now used. "There is no doubt." says the dean, "that the Increased enthusiasm that these pulling prevails regarding matches Is actually doing more than any other measure has done in recent years to strengthen the breeding of more efficient draft horses. Inasmuch as practically all of our production problems in this state revolve around, horse power units. I see no reason why it is not good business to make our horses more efficient and to stimulate improved horsemanship on the part of our stockmen." ' Increased premiums for winning entries will serve to bring out the best teams and Increase the Interest among the owners, the dean indicated. The Utah State Fair is doubling Its draft horse pulling stake this year by Increasing the money from $500 to $1000 and making twenty premiums In all.

Idaho. years of activity, the Welser-PayetDairy Herd Improvement association has concluded that seven factors are of fundamental importance in developing higher producing dairy herds. These factors are set forth as follows: Progressive dairymen have found it very beneficial to give their cows from six to eight weeks dry rest period before calving. This point is supported by experiences In other herd Improvement units. In the Jerome county association it was found that of the twenty-si- x herds tested the twenty-foherd owners who made a practice of giving their cows this rest period had an annual herd average of more than 300 pounds of butterfat per cow. warm or well water is another val uable factor. In order to keep up the normal body heat, a cow given cold wafer would have to use part of the feed consumed. Milking and feeding at regular hours was another point mentioned. This point was supported by experience in another association. te ur In the 1927-2- 8 testing year this unit reported that, out of twenty-eigherds tested, the eighteen owners who paid strictest attention to feeding and milking regularly had the highest averages.

Officials con nected with agriculture in Davis county plan to make a showing by way of weed control work in the expectation that their efforts will prove to be a demonstration to each community of the cbunty. Bait has been used very extensive ly in the past three or four years, the county agricultural agent, DeLore Nichols, and the district agricultural inspector, H. P. Mathews, point out. During 1928 five carloads were used on wlute top. This proved effective, they say, where properly applied and in sufficient quantities. But too often it was not spread sufficiently distant from the edge of the weed patches to prevent the weeds from growing beyond the salt areas. The result in many cases was a fringe of new growth. Then, too, the salt often rendered previously valuable land sterile for a number of years, and it is found rather expensive If used on any large acreage. Calcium chlorate, Mr. Nichols states, has been highly recommended oy experiment stations of other states as .effective for weed control, used as a spray or dust. This was tried out to some extent In Davis county last year on some twenty-eigtest plots which were kept under observation by Mr. Mathews and Mr. Nichols. Some of the plats were sprayed once and others twice, the majority of the chemical being used on wild morning giory. in aa cases mere was a noticeable amount of killing. WhcnAhe chemical was applied at the right stages of plant growth, and in two sprayings, there was from 85 per cent to loo per cent killing. One plat of thirty square rods showed 100 oer cent killing this spring, as did several small plots. Two sprayings on a plat of white top gave about a 50 per cent killing. Mr. Nichols says the strength of the chemical was one pound to one gallon of water and this amount sprayed over one square rod, Further effort will be put forth to determine more definitely the stage of growth at which the spraying should be done and the amount of chemical to be used. The agents this year are directing the use of five sprayers, and In the last week have used up all available calcium chlorate on white top. They will push this work as fast as possible for another week vhen they get more cnemical, and tnen will aban don white top because of its advanced stages oi growth and win soon begin measures lor control of morning giory. The fctfltjft ripnoHmfinr nf auHpiil- ture and the Utah State Agricultural college experiment station are establishing a weed spray experiment plot in Davis county. The actual work will begin Monday morning. The experiment, will be upon white top, morning glory and Canada thistle. The aim will be to supply state and county officials and land owners with proper Information as to the amount of chemical to be used, how the spraying should be done and also if such a method is suitable and practical for weed control under Utah conditions. ht 15, - CHURNING TEMPERATURES.

If every Nebraska farmer were to turn from Turkey Red to Nebraska-6- 0 wheat overnight, the state would gain annually, according to Paul H. Stewart of the state agricultural college. Indications are that still better varieties giving heavier yields and having stronger rust resistance are nearing development Real Estate Department BOISE, Idaho. Reporting a live- year investigation of the possibilities of marketing range calves at a profit, E. F. Rinehart, field animal husband-ma- n with the Idaho agricultural extension division, says it can be done under certain conditions. The conditions most .conducive to success in this new type of marketing procedure, which is attracting considerable at tention in the beef producing business of the west, are listed as follows: Cows and calves must be brougnt in early from the range and held on good pasture. The calves must be weaned on grain. They should be held on feed thirty to fifty days after weaning, for shipping immediately means a heavy shrinkage and almost certain loss. Calves must be in good shape to hold their, fat and to ship. They should be sold to baby beef feeders to tne corn aeii. , Finishing Range Calves Requires More Grain. Range calves have been finished in Idaho, but this requires more grain and less roughage than the common cattle fattening ration, re ports Rinehart. Two Idaho leeaers successfully fed out calves last winter. The two lots, 105 head, averaged 328 pounds off the range. Eight months of feeding put them on the market averaging 711 pounds. Seventy head averaged 746 pounds and brought $12.35. 35 head averaged 641 and brought $11.85. They averaged 1.8 pounds daily gain on alfalfa hay, corn, beans, syrup and oil meal. Ten head were cut back as not fat enough to ship. As the calves must be of better quality than average range cattle. Rinehart says, it is a system that may be adopted profitably by a good out- -' fit to sell older calves that are well bred and can be handled to rftain their baby fat and to withstand a long, hard trip to market For the average cow outfit, however, where the cattle are average and handled in the average way, the system is not likely to be profitable. When calves are kept on tne rancn and given special care, a practice comparable to feeding In the middle west, there is no question but that selling calves is .profitable. Percent age calf crop, as well as opportunities for quick turnover profit, is certain to govern the extent to which calf marketing is practiced. A small crop will see more calves grown out to two and As cattle-?-n solve the problem of getting larger calf crops, they will be in better position to develop calf re County.

Development work to secure additional forest ranges for livestock has begun to bear fruit in White Pine county, according to Forest Supervisor C. A. Beam. A spring in Lampson canyon, ten miles south of Hamilton, has been developed to a point where It will make available for use about one township of land heretofore useless. Another spring has Just been made available on the eastern slope of White Pine mountain in Dead Man's canyon, which opens about half a township to grazing, and work Is going forward on a reservoir at Horse-trac- k Springs on the southern end of the White Pine divlsion- -f the na- tional forest. Similar work will be continued elsewhere in the county this summer. Just returned Supervisor Beam-hafrom a conference with stockmen at Ibapah. near the Utah line, .where means of improving grazing in that section were discussed. A movement has been begun to establish a national forest reserve in western Utah, and good progress is reported by Mr. Beam to have beerj made in that HEBER. The initial chemical spray attack in Wasatch county's ' war on weeds is now under way. Royal Crook, 1929 graduate of the Utah State Agricultural college, will be the combined Inspector and eradicates this year. Mr. Crook will visit where noxious weeds premises abound, prepared to spray If the weeds are at the proper stage of growth. Considerable white top is at present in blossom and this will receive immediate attention, while morning glory will probably not be at the proper stage of maturity for spraying for two or three weeks. The results of spraying with sodium chlorate last season are highly encouraging. Considerable exoeriment- ing was done regarding the stage of growth at which to spray, effect of moisture conditions on the efficiency of the spray treatment, etc On morn ing giory the results were not very apparent during last season, but this spring the contrast between sprayed areas ana unsprayea adjacent areas shows an efficiency of 80 to 100 per cent eradication. On Canada thistle and white top the stage of maturity seemed to be a highly Important efficiency factor. Likewise the time of day or temperature of the atmosphere and the resultant evapoiatlon seemed to cause considerable variation in results. Spraying in the evening, so that the weeds would remain moist during the night, proved to be the best practice. On all the noxious perennials with running rootstocks the most satisfactory methods seem to be: d Use a at least one pound of the Congress Must Act at Once solution of chlorate to each gallon of water; (2) spray the growth thoroughly at the lo Ai(, Winler Wheal early blossom stage, taking especial care to moisten the stems as well as vi uriiit r. the leaves; (3) allow the plants to make a second growth to blossom stage, if they are able, and repeat arm WASHINGTON leaders the spraying before freezing weather believe that if funds for farm relief set in In the fall.
