The study is based on per gallon that is, the number of miles one gallon of gasoline moves one ton of automobile.

Farmers Decreasing Hunsaker told these groups how the number of farmers in the United States were decreasing each year. In 1958 approximately 12 percent of the population were engaged in farming. In 1930, 33 percent of America was raising food and agricultural products. With modem efficient methods of producing food and fiber there is every reason to believe that fewer and fewer willibe needed in the future to produce our food and fiber needs. He pointed out that while the number of people on the farm are diminishing yet the number of jobs pertaining to agriculture were increasing. Today at least 40 percent of our workable population are employed in processing, distributing or working with agricultural commodities. New problems arise, he said. Many of them may be economic; others may be problems from insect or disease in crops or livestock. Hunsaker pointed out how the Experimental Station at the University had developed a relief wheat a few years ago which was resistant to some of the old varieties of smut and then later new varieties of smut had arisen from mutation which made it neressary for the Experimental Station to develop newer resistant varieties. Today Cache or Wasatch wheat is grown by These piost Utah dry farmers. are relatively free from smut. - Many people feel that farmers are accepting benefits and are making large profits. A carton of milk costs approximately 22 cents per quart. An empty milk carton delivered to the doorstep of homes in America today will cost approximately 11 cents. The percentage of the consumer dollar received by the farmer is getting smaller each year. Research Potential Hunsaker told these groups that while he was at graduate school he had been able to inject a culture or solution from an arthritic person into the udder of a dry cow and then take from that udder after the animal had freshened, the coldostrum which . . ,y - VA Says Korean 2 Box Elder NEWS Wednesday.

The possibility of curing many diseases such as arthritis, rheumatism and even cancer are being worked upon today by the researchers at the various institutions. This type of research holds a great potential for the future. A farmer today must be the mostly read and diversified individual of anyone in our society. He must be an economist, soil scientist, entomologist, pathologist, marketing specialist, and diplomat to be successful in our present economic system. Must Test Cows Hunsaker had an occasion to refer to the dairy enterprise in agriculture specifically. He said that a few years ago the darkest place on earth was in a cows udder. Through research and experimental work today scientists know exactly what goes on in the inside of the cows "udder. A progressive dairyman must know what each animal is doing. He said that generally under our economic conditions today that if a dairy animal isnt producing over 300 pounds of in a years lactation she is a submarginal cow and should be sold. Many dairymen have herds that are producing nearly twice this amount with very little additional feed and effort. The average pounds of butterfat per cow in Box Elder county on test last year was 370 pounds of butterfat. The average pounds of butterfat per cow in the United States not on test is 230 pounds per year. So often dairy herds that are not being tested have a good portion of the herd producing less than it costs to feed them. Its the good cows in the herd that are paying the way for both kinds. Some figures were presented which had been compiled by the University in this respect. From a survey made in Summit county in 1944 it was found that the dairymen of that county lost $104 580.00 because of maintaining low producing cows. Straight bred Jersey, Guernsey, and Holstein animals average 63 pounds butterfat higher than the cross bred animals. Testing Pays Dividends Hunsaker told how one dairyman began a testing program in 1938 with a herd average of 241 pounds of butterfat. After testing for one year, some of his animals were sold maintaining the higher producing animals. The next year the average butterfat was raised 46 pounds. The following year a raise of 10 pounds per animal was obtained. This in average increase gradual pounds of butterfat per animal increased each year through the testing program until in 1957 this same herd averaged 508 pounds of butterfat per animal. but-terf- A greater percentage of rean veterans is expected to chase homes through mortgages than did erans of World War II, VA Ko- Chas.

With more than six years remaining in which to apply for home loans before their deadline of Feb. 1, 1965, VA says 10.8 percent of the eligible Korean veterans have already used their loan guaranty privileges. This figure was reached in spite of the fact that the average Korean veteran came out of the service younger than his counterpart of World War II; in most cases was single or, at least, had not started a family. In general, he was less disposed to take on serious financial responsibility. Approximately 32 percent of the eligible World War II veterans have availed themselves of their loan guaranty privileges during the World War II program. VA statisticians forecast, in the approximate year and a half remaining before July 25. 1960, in which World War II veterans can make loan guaranty appli cations, as many as 400,000 more may actually take advantage of the privilege. This figure could add a little less than 3 percent to the World War II picture. On the other hand, VA says that out of the home loans guar anteed currently each month, 57 percent are being made to Korean veterans and 43 percent to World War II veterans. And Korean veterans have approximately four and a half years to apply after World War II deadline is reached.
