Although the rate at which reports have been returned has exceeded the pace of the last farm census, some farmers and ranchers have not sent in their reports. The completeness and accuracy of this important agricultural census depend upon each individual filling out the report form received," said Orvin Wilhite, Chief of the Bureau's Agriculture Division. Operators who neglect to fill out and return their reports, Wilhite said, are and all other doing themselves operators a disservice. Wilhite explained, "Each report that the Bureau mailed was assigned its own census file number (CFN). We need a response for each CFN so that the record ean be cleared. Anyone who did not farm in 1978, for whatever reason, and snyone who received extra reports with different file numbers should note these facts on the forms and return them so that additional followups can be avoided."

Anissa will be in fifth grade when school resumes The Board of Education of Uintah County conducted an evaluation of the curriculum and facilities at Union high school in the course of s visit to the Union campus April 80. Superintendent Wayne Reid of Uintah County, said that it is quite obvious that the teachers, administration, students and parents do not identify students in any way by county. Reid pointed out in his report to the Duchesne County Board that Union high school has much to offer every student, and that the overall teaching is very good. He found the ratio of students to teachers to be low and the facilities quite adequate. The report indicated that the teaching staff seems stable from year to year. The lunches were deemed good, and the lunch area clean. In addition, the students from West junior high seem to mix favorably with students from Union. Reid pointed out that three of the four student body officers for next year are from Uintah County. Reid concluded the report by stating, We can be proud for our students to attend this institution, regardless of what the future may bring for either school district. It is nice to have such a good working relationship with the Duchesne Board and the Duchesne District staff 12-pag- B A g program.

These decisions are then published in the form of a proclamation and distributed to the public. This year the Division of Wildlife Resources is introducing a new program for distributing proclamations. All big game regulations, applications, etc., will be included in e tabloid which will be one included in all June 24 issued of the Sunday "Salt Lake Tribune." This new tyfc of proclamation should be much easier to work with and more accessible to the public. complet- ed and valuable data has been collected to learn more about big game populations. This data from spring range studies is used to formulate recommendations for the big game hunts in Utah. Division of Wildlife Resources, Forest Service, and BLM personnel collect this data and present it to the Interagency Committee, which is composed of a representative from each of the three agencies. The local ' Interagency meeting was held in Vernal on May 10 to hear recommendations concerning the big game units in Duchesne, Uintah, Daggett and parts of Wasatch counties. Buck only deer hunts were recommended for all areas in the Uintah Basin. Severe winter conditions on and Unit 23-herd unit 2S-significantly reduced the population of deer, and no antlerless permits were recommended. Heavy deer winter loss was observed in the Red Creek, Currant Creek, and Tabby Mountain areas. About 150 dead deer have been observed in these areas this spring by myself and other interagency personnel Approximately 90 percent of these deer were fawns; therefore, the hunter success this fall will be much less in the Currant Creek unit. There is no way of determining the exact number of deer that died during the winter, but we are confident that a substantial number of last years fawn crop was lost in some areas. Recommendations were also made for elk, antelope, and moose hunts in the local area. The Board of Big Game Control will meet in Vernal June 7 and discuss the recommendations for big game seasons and regulations. The DWR, livestock people, and sportsmen, federal agencies will participate in the An outdoor summer program sponsored by the Ute Indian Tribe will include six trips on which students will learn about map reading, fire building, shelter construction, cooking, fishing, water sources and safety.
