San-pitc- rc 3-- 528-794- ; Major oil discovery may start boom in Utah A major oil discovery appears likely just a few miles from Moab. Columbia Gas Development Corp, of Houstin, TX tested its Kane Spring Federal No. 27-- 1 just off Utah Highway 313 - the Dead Horse Point Road - for one hour on a 14 64 choke at 2,302 barrels of oil and 627,000 cubic feet of gas per day. Columbia began using its unique horizontal drilling operation in mid- - December. Total measured depth of the well was expected to be 9700 feet, with a true vertical depth of about 7200 feet. The discovery could lead to an oil boom in the area if the production rate holds at a good rate. From the Times Independent, Moab is good for your roses Epsom salts is good for your roses. Give your roses 13 cup of Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) once or twice a year. Youll be amazed at the difference it will make. Fortunately, roses dont require as much water as people think. Roses will do very well with waterrationing. Spread two or three inches of bark or mulch around the bushes and you should only need to water them once a week. New roses will need more water however.

This year the cricket have begun hatching earlier than usual. The first crickets of the season were . found on February 22, according to Bob Stevens, of the U.S Forestry Service, Fillmore. Baiting began Monday, April 8, in hopes of getting the troublesome insects as early as possible. The Oak City mountain area infestation seemed to be lighter than usual, and this was due to the persistent baiting by the Forest Service and farmer, which reduces the population dramatically. The area south of Kanosh is more heavily infested because baiting was not carried out as enthusiastically. Farmers are urged to start their own baiting no w rather than waiting. Bail is available at the Delta Extension Office and Fillmore Extension office. Call your own county extension office for more details. |
