Alfalfa Seed . . . or abandoned. With the decline of seed yields, scientists at the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station began to stu-dy the causes. After much re-search came the important dis-covery that lygu bugs were a maj or factor causing the low yields. When this discovery was made it was 'found that there were no insecticides then available that would give economic control of this pest. It was not until the development of DDT and the oth-er new organic insecticides that successful control measures for this pest could be worked out. Since 1945 there has been a not-able improvement in yields and total production of alfalfa seed in Utah and other western states. But it has been found that al-though alfalfa will not produce adequate yields of seed without the control of lygus bugs, there are other factors important to the production of high seed yields, which are soils and soil mois ture, variety of al'falfa, cultural and management practices, and in sect pollination. Many factors are involved and these require the at-tention of workers in various bran-ches of agricultural science. Mr. and Mrs. Albert J. Swayne, from Ely, Nev., visited over the week end at the home of their daughter, Mrs. Veva Dekker. Re-turning with them was Miss Don-na Dekker, who had been their visitor in Ely since the first of June. 'Heat Pump' Taps Warmth in Earth The day may come when under-ground temperatures will heat the majority of homes in winter and keep them comfortably cool on the hottest days of summer. Further development of a de-vice known as a "heat pump," which operates on the same prin-ciple as the cooling unit of the electric refrigerator in your kitchen, is expected to make this type of heating not only possible but practicable. The food storage space of the refrigerator is made cold because the refrigerating unit absorbs the heat in the box and pumps it into the room. Similarly, the heat pump draws warmth from the earth and spreads it in the house. A vast reservoir of heat is avail-able to be tapped in this manner since the temperature of the earth remains virtually constant, around 54 degrees, below the frost line. Various methods can be used to distribute this heat, once pumped into the house, the most conve-nient being the circulation of warm air. In summer, the house can be cooled merely by revers-ing the heat pump. As a cooling mechanism, the pump removes the heat from the house and transfers it into the cooler ground. While this revolutionary type of heating is generally more costly than conventional heating plants, research and continued improvement of the heat pump system is expected to make its operation less expensive. Uncle Sam Says . ,. fesl Defense is everybody's job. You can play an important part in this national emergency by keeping your-self and your country economically strong. Buy U. S. Defense Bonds NOW and REGULARLY. Those who don't save regularly, generally don't save at all. Sign up today for the Payroll Savings Plan where you work, or the Bond-a-Mon- Plan at your bank.

A A softer, lighter color can be obtained by rubbing down the surface with a carborundum block svailable at paint stores. This also will remove soot stains, leaving a new, clean surface. Q My house has gray shake shingle siding, light gray win-dows, darker gray trim and a red front door and flower box. I'm going to put on a new roof. What rolor do you suggest? A Use a light gray asphalt roof in a blend if your house is a low, one-stor- y structure such as the popular ranch style. A light, roof will give a feeling of height if the house looks tallish, put ori a dark roof, blue-blac- or a dark slate blend. Either will assure over-a- ll harmony. Q My husband and I are fur-nishing a new home, and would like advice on whether to buy furniture in a light wood or a darker shade. A This is a matter of personal taste, since furniture in hardwood veneer is equally durable and attractive whether light or dark. It would be best to select a wood which harmonizes with wall pan-eling and other woodwork in the house. A light or blond wood gives Spaciousness to small rooms. Q How can I remove a "cloudy" Appearance from a lovely old out-class decanter? The outside seems tfear, but the inside surface has a !oggy cast. A Fill the decanter with a so-lution of ammonia and water and let stand for an indefinite period. This may have to be repeated several times before the cloudy appearance entirely disappears, kfter washing, do not put in stop- - per until the interior has become Jhoroughly dry because the mois- - ture will cause cloudine.

Defense Bonds is a method whereby you can make your dollars work for Amer-ica, just as they work for you. Our country must be strong economical-ly. It should be apparent to everyone that defense is everybody's job. Tour part is to buy Defense Bonds. Every employee in a plant or business es-tablishment should be enrolled for the Payroll Savings Plan or the Bond-a-Mon- Plan at his bank. A few dollars here or there will ac complish little, but with everyone do-ing his or her job, America will be economically secure. U. S.

Spring Roof Check Urged Regular inspection of the rowl should be made to detect laks be-fore they become serious enough to damage the. building or its con-tents, and home owners are ad-vised to have a contractor or roofing applicator make this in-spection in the Spring. Roofs take a severe beating from Winter's wind, ice, snow and sleet. Another reason for a thoi-oug- h check-u- p on the roof this Spring is that' wind storms of un-usual intensity swept many sec-tions of the country in 1950. While the damage to some roofs was immediately obvious, other roofs suffered hidden damage which now may be showing up. Patching a roof seldom is rec-ommended. Most roofing wears uniformly and the first leak in an old roof usually means that others will develop soon. Getting up on an old roof to patch it may cause other leaks. If a leak is ignored, water will run along rafters, seep into walls and ceilings, crackinsj plaster and staining wallpaper. In it is economical to select a material that can be laid over the old roof, such as asphalt shingles. Avail-able in many colors, textures and patterns, asphalt shingles also fit into the color scheme to give the home beauty. Properly applied, an asphalt roof is t. If the hotts is in an exposed location, where high winds can be expected, ce-menting down the tabs of asphalt strip shingles will provide good protection. This is easily done by placing a daub of quick-settin- g cement about the size of a fifty-ce-piece under each tab. Indi-vidual clip-dow- n and inter-lockin- g shingles also give satisfactory ser vice in high wind areas. |
