Show MILLARD COUNTY CHRONICLE Delta, Utah, Thurs., June 12, 1952 ill Woodiow. ck ij.' 40 YEARS AGO . , . From the Files ... DELTA A. B. Ward is finding his livery business increasing so much that he lias started work on an 'ad-dition to his stable. It will be in-creased to about twice Its present size with accommodations for 37 head o horses. Additional stalls will be built on the east side, and a room will be added for a sample room. Clark Callister is busy changing the telephone line and by the time this issue is out all sub-scribers will be connected with the new switch board at A. B. Ward's. The board has a capacity for 100 subscribers, all of whom will be on four party lines. The Oak City line will also run into the hoard. The lines also run thru alleys instead of the streets, which is a great improvement, which will be more apparent when the town has grown to a place of several thousand inhabitants. Last week Mr. and Mrs. Ren Sampson entertained a number of cream and cake were served dur-ing the evening and everyone had an enjoyable time. G. C. Munns has sold his two lots and house to Mr. January for $475. The same buyer also bought his farm in West Delta 'for $70 per acre. Post master Bishop is having a neat wire fence 'built around his place, and Whicker Bros., have just finished putting him down a well. Delta will have the biggest cele-bration on July 4, 5 and 6 that was ever pulled off in Millard County. A number of committees to look after the various details have been appointed and they are now at work. The race track is being put in shape, a grandstand and bowery is to be erected and every preparation will be made for the races and various games that will be pulled off. LEAMINGTON The editor paid a visit to Leam-ington last week and found every-body busy irrigating their farms. The farmers here have an abund-ance of water and with primary rights that will always insure a good supply every season. .Alfalfa is further advanced here than in any other part of the county. It is all in bloom on the sandy land lying south of town and cutting will begin next week. The old crop is all cleared out owing to the big demand made by the farmers around Delta iand as high as $19 per ton has been realized for some that went on the market last month. No wonder that everybody who raises alfalfa is prosperous. It is shown by the new houses that have gone up this winter. Among others we notice a fine brick house just completed for John Johnson. No place in Utah can beat Leamington for the amount and quality of its alfalfa seed. It' always commands a little higher price than that from other parts of the state. For instance, C. A. Johnson last year got $900 worth of seed from 24 acres, besides 48 loads from his first cutting of hay, and A. E. Johnson sold $400 worth from 20 acres and harvested four tons of hay per acre. The biggest hay producer is the Mclntyre ran-ch where there are over 1000 ac-res in alfalfa.

Knowlton, USAC Extension entom-ologist. During 1950 great hoardes of these large black, green and yello-wish- green worms developed on waste and range lands. However, they fed almost entirely on knot-wee- d and other weeds. The result was that very little crop injury oc-curred even though the threat from this ravenous caterpillar ap-peared to be serious. In case this hornworm runs out of acceptable weed host plants and invades vineyards or gardens, control generally is possible by prompt application of undiluted calcium arsenate dust to plant foliage.Or toxaphene spray or dust may be applied to the areas where the worms are migrating, entomol-ogist Knowlton explained.
