Prune all small shoots that develop in the ll. If left, these shoots will become long growing stems that reduce tomato size. Pruning is best done by hand, pinching them between ones fingers.

In contrast, the larger bushier determinate tomato al$o called w ill produce fruit over a longer period of time. Growing either compact or tomato plants is easy. They arc best placed inside a tomato cage ana left to grow without pruning. A primary reason for pruning indeterminate plants is to harvest This is accomlarger tomatoes. plished at the expense of producing more, yet smaller tomatoes. Only indeterminate vanets should be pruned; determinate varieties should not be pruned as it would reduce both size and quantity of tomatoes.

At the time, it was just an impressive looking piece of paper that I couldn't spend for five years. did I know I owned a piece of the national debt. Besides the fact that the bonds constitute a loan to the government they are an attractive low cost, secure, low nsk investment, according to Dr. Jean Lown, of Utah State Universitys college of family life. Lwon says savings bonds have changed substantially over the years. For one thing, $25 face value savings bonds are no longer available - the minimum is $50 for the new senes EE bonds. The new bonds cost half the face value so a $50 bond costs $25. Secondly, since 1982 the interest rate and the date the bonds mature are vanable. Rates change every six months on May and November 1. You still need to hold the bond for at least 5 years to earn the current guaranteed six percent rate. At this rate, the bond would 1 a mature or be worth face value in 12 years, but it could mature sooner if rates go up in the future. Low n says. Interest on these bonds is exempt from state taxation. You also have severtll options of when to pay federal taxes on the bonds interest pay tax each year as the interest accrues, pay tax when you cash in thrx'bond or further defer taxation by' converting the Series EE bonds into long term Series HH bonds. Bonds should be kept in a safe deposit box and keep a number of the bond number and date issued so you can keep track of maturity and interest crediting dates. However they are relatively easy to replace if lost. Bonds are an old familiar form of investment that deserve another look. Remember that interest credited on these bonds is set every six months from the purchase date. For instance, if you bought the bond August 1, interest would be credite every February and August 1. So, if you forget this, 1 and cash in your bond July 31 instead of waiting one more day, you would lose an entire six months interest.

Utah Scientists have come up with some interesting facts on snoring They say that it has both social and medical consequences. The social consequences involve the snorers loved ones, waking up the snorer and saying 'roll over, or "sleep in the oiher room.'. Some snoring has been measured at 80 decibels. That's as loud as a jackhammer! .The medical consequences lo the snorer, can be lack of oxygen, and stress to the heart and lungs. Scientist have noted that snoring increases with age. In people 60 years old. 60 percent of the men. and 40 percent of the women are habitual snorrrs. It's not known why more men than women snore. But snoring is also correlated with weight. It occurs three limes more often In obese people than in thin people. The sound comes from the vibration of muscles andto(l tissue In the airw ay. or from constricted nasal passages. Snoring has been linked with, high blood pressure. In an extre- me form of snoring, known as obstructive sleep apnea, breathing actually stops during sleep, ana scientist suggest it may account for some sudden unexplained nighttime deaths. At any rate, apnea can cause daytime sleepiness, irritability, poor work performance, and serious cardiovascular problems. Severe cases can be helped by surgery. Relief for snorers and their families Is also possible if the head of the bed is elevated, and if snorers avoid tranquilizers sleeping pills and alcohol before bedtime. Drastic measures such as sewing tennis balls into the seat of the snorers pajamas can force him or her to sleep on his or her side so its not necessary to bark, roll over." In the past, all cattlemen transporting animals to a sale and REPAIR AND SERVICE! crossing a district line were required to first obtain a permit to market slip from their local brand inspector The slip was then given to the brand inspector at the sale Now owners can use their brand registration card Or. if they are transporting someone elsrs animals, they must have a bill of sale signed by the owner consigning Bicycles h the animals to the sale and authorizing the individual to transport them, Menlove explained At the sale, animals will be checked fof proof of ownership by the brand inspector, Menlove is asking for the cooperation of all livestock owners in complying with these changes. He also pointed out that the department has the authority to hold an tndivuals check if proof of ownership Is nol shown.
