Show 4 Millard County Chronicls Delta, Ut., Thurs., April 1.1948 Utah Mine Industry Prospecting Goes Deeper ' I . Surface Plant at East Utah Property of Newmont, Where Work is Proving Costly. With mineral deposits on or near the surface combed over, the de-velopment of a mine today pre-sents new and increasing prob-lems. An example of this is the ex-ploration program of the Newmont Mining Company at the East Utah property, situated in the eastern end of the Park City mining region. Nearly two years ago, the New-mont company acquired control of the East Utah company after a thorough geological examination and since that time has expended about $150,000 in exploration. A tunnel is being driven to sound out the productive possibilities of the lower levels of the East Utah property where considerable shal-low work has been done over the past quarter century. The East Utah program calls for the driving of a 4500 foot tunnel, of which 2200 feet has been completed. Before the objective is com-pleted, it is estimated that the Newmont company will have ex-pended in the neighborhood of $300,000 for equipment, supplies and labor. This is a far cry from the early days when many an out-crop of ore was found on or near the surface, and is indicative of the risk that must be taken now to develop Utah's mineral resources. It also shows that practicability of encouraging strong, well fi-nanced companies to enter this field to insure the future of Utah's mining and smelting industry, which needs rehabilitation follow-ing the war years when develop-ment was necessarily curtailed by the manpower shortage.

There are lots of arguments pro and con on Universal Military Training. (UMT) Here are a few quotes on the subject of UMT and the need for standing military power, sea and air supremecy In short National Defense. " A century ago it may have been possible for this nation to live remote from the rest of the world, but the foreshortening of time and space that have occur-red since, the development of leth-al weapons capable of spanning vast distances, the increased speed of communications, all make it clear to any thinking person that, as the Secretary of State recently observed: 'Unless we realize that peace is indivisible, we shall be forced to take part in a' war that is world wide'." Secretary Forrestal June 16, 1946 Williamstown, Mass. "Universal military training is a military program. Its primary pur-pose is to build up a reservoir of trained manpower for a military emergency. Its of great moral and social benefits are very important for a democracy such as ours, but its principal product, trained manpower, must be the real reason for its establishment." Sec. of War Patterson May 27, 1947, N. Y. Times.' "It is for that hope that the 'Re-turn of the Colors' holds particular significance. For when you receive your standards it will mean that you are returned to reserve status You are then a symbol of the ready strength of America to guard her peace and freedom. We hope it will be such a strength that potential aggressors will be warned to keep their sabers sheathed, and maybe to discard them altogether." Lt. Gen. J. Lawton Collisn Nov. 11, 1947, N. Y. City: OA Sunrise . Dairy Receives Award At Dairy Session At the annual session of the Dairy Manufacturers short course, held at the U. S. A. C, during March, the Sunrise Dairy of Delta received an award for extra rich Market milk. Utah and neighboring states were presented with awards and certificates fo rhigh scores in milk1 products entered in the product show. Director, W. W. Owens, of the Utah State Extension Service, which sponsored the course, pre-sided. He explained to the Dairy Manufacturers the function of the extension service in carrying agri-cultural education out to the peo-ple through county and home dem-onstration agents as well as pro-viding education through short courses such as the one just held. In the final sess ion speakers in-cluded George B. Caine, head of the U. S. A. C. Dairy department, who advised dairy farmers on the leveling production throughout the year, in order to take advantage of higher milk prices paid during the lean production months. Three ways of leveling produc-tion Prof Caine listed as follows. By a more uniform freshening period throughout the year, by supplementing pasture with other feed and by culling cows closer and getting it done in the spring instead of the fall. Following the business sessions award winners were honored at a banquet and presented with certificates. Clair Gardner and sons, who op-erate the. Sunrise Dairy, received the Bronze award and certificate on Tuesday this week.

FARManaHOMEto "Cattle grubs are now occuring throughout the county and are ser-iously damaging the backs of beef and dairy cattle throughout Millard county. Infestation by cattle grubs re-duced milk yield, retards growth and fattening of beef cattle, re-duces the value of hides and of meat carcasses and requires trim-ming an average of two pounds per carcass from grubby animals. Reduced milk yields results in every infested herd, in every grub-by milk cow. Later when heel flies, which arise from the grubs, are chasing the cattle in the fields in spring, milk reduction of 10 to 15 percent often occurs. The grubs are best controlled by a rotenone spray or dust. In case of community action or treatment of. large range herds, use of cattle chute and a power sprayer applica-tions is approximately eight to ten cents per animal per year. The best time for the first treat-ments is approximately 25 days after the first grubs appear in the backs of the cattle. This time al-ready has passed in most counties of Utah. The next two treatments, 30 and 60 days after the first oc-curs, are to destroy grubs reaching the back as the season advances. In small herds and for .dairy ani-mals generally, control may be af-fected by means of a dust mixture, consisting of ground cube or derris root in pyrophyllite or extremely fine volcanic ash. Prepared mix-tures, ready for use, should be placed in a shaker can with a tight lid. In the top of this make 15 holes, each er inch thick in diameter, punching outward. Two men, working on both sides of a chute, shaking dust over the backs of each of the cattle, can treat 75 to 100 cattle in an hour. More than 200,000 trees for Utah farm planting during the spring of 1948 are now available at the Clark-McKar- y Tree Nursery at Utah State Agricultural College. Trees will be distributed to farm-ers throughout the state for farm-stead windbreaks, field shelter-belt- s, woodlot and erosion control plantings. They are made available to Utah farmers for these purposes by pro-visions of the 1924 Clark-McNar- y Law, which provided for federal co-operation in the production and distribution of small tree planting stock. These trees may be purchas-ed at $1.50 to $3.00 per hundred which includes cost of shipping. Twelve species are available for planting during the present year. There are four species of ever-greens that have been successfully grown in Utah and eight species of hardwoods. The evergreens are: blue spruce, ponderosa pine, eastern red cedar, and Rocky Mountain juniper. The hardwoods are: green ash, Siberian elm, Russion olive, black locust, honey locust, golden willow, black walnut, and Lombardy popular. For further information call at the County Agents office. |
