Show - News , views from county agent . . Watch for bugs by Blaine Jones sure that some of you are aware that we have a new insect pest in the State of Utah, but just in case you are not aware of it, be on the lookout for it. This insect, the blue alfalfa aphid, invaded Washington County fields during 1975. Its presence was verified in 1976 ,, aphid. I am Washington, Beaver, ;f Mil- - lard and Kane i , Counties. Thekl fact that it has j4V j been discovered Blaine Jones in the four counties mentioned means that it could have spread into our area. It looks as though it may become a very serious insect pest throughout the state. This new pest resembles the pea aphid but averages a little smaller in size. When you have a lot of them together, they seem to have a bluish cast to them. Recent field collecting has indicated that the aphid is already active and multiplying in Washington county. It is expected that it will be found farther north in the state as the growing season progresses. Be on the look out for this pest. If you suspect that you might have the pest in your garden or field, either collect some for yourself or invite me to come out and look at them and collect some, as our entomologists at the university are interested in following the movements of this pest. If you do collect some of them, put them in a small amount of 70 percent alcohol and bring them to the office. I will get them to Logan. Specific control recommendations for this pest have not yet been developed for Utah, but our people are currently recommending that this pest should be controlled with the same treatment as the pea Golden Age club sponsors arthritis clinic The Golden Age Club of will sponsor an arthritis screening clinic on Monday, April 18 at 6:30 p.m. at the Juab High School auditorium. According to Clarence Bowers, the Golden Age Club president, the screening will be done by doctors and nurses from the Veterans Hospital in Salt Lake City. Bowers urges anyone in the East Juab County area who may have arthritis symptoms to attend the clinic. The clinic is open to anyone of any age. Ne-p- know that any of you who are farming are still concerned about the drought. I do find, however, that quite a few people think that because we have had a storm or two that maybe the crisis is over. This is definitely not the case. The most recent information we have indicates that in this part of the state our run off will only be about 40 percent of normal. In view of that, I would like to pass on to you a little advise from Dr. Paul Christensen, Extension Soil Specialist. He strongly encourages that if there is any place that water is running to waste and not going into storage, action should be taken now to store the water in the soil. If you have water available it should be applied to your fields and gardens now, especially if they were not watered last fall. He encourages canal companies to get the water into the ditches where it can be used. Normally many areas would still be under snow at this time of year but this year the snow is not there and we are in for a shortage. Dr. Christensen explains that in loam or clay-loasoils, enough water can be stored in the soil now to harvest a first cutting and part of a second cutting of hay. Enough can be stored in the soil for one third to one half of the certain requirements of a garden. Sandy soils, however, will only hold about half as much water but anything you can store now will be of help later on. I The other night we had what I thought was a very productive meeting with the county weed board. The weed board is charged with the responsibility of carrying out the various provisions of the state weed law in Juab County. The board consists of 5 members: Ross Harper, chairman; Brennin Hannifan; Tim Han-nifaRichard Paxman and Melvin Robbins. One member of the board of county commissioners also serves as a member of the weed board. Kyle Jacobson, district agricultural inspector and I sit with the board in an advisory capacity. The law also calls for a person to supervise the weed program in the county under weed board. For their meeting the other night, the weed board met with representatives of the irrigation companies, county and state road departments, Union Pacific Railroad and various state and federal governmental agencies. They asked those representatives to serve in an advisory capacity to the weed board on weed problems throughout the county. All in all the meeting lasted 3s hours.
