STATE GAME PRESERVES
According to reports coming from different parts
of the state the game supply is in better
dtion than it has been for years. Deer are in
creasng in numbers. thanks to the protective laws
which have been in effect for number of years.
Deer is found in all the mountainous sections
of the state. The present game law permits any
person to kill two male deer with horns during
the month OF October of each year Game Com
missioner Cromar is OF the openion that the law
should restrict the killing to one deer per year,
and that may be of either This would do
away with any smuggling of female animals killed
Internationally or otherwise, and would serve to
further protect tho deer until such time it
shall be deemed wise to permit tho taking of more.
Bear is also on the increase in the state. There
is no law against the killing OF this brute. and
many specimens have been brought to bay in the
northern portion of the state during the past
son, notably in Ogden canyon and in the noun
tains above Bountiful. South far Sewer
county reports of killing of bear are brought, and
lovers of this sort of game are assured of reward
for their search in the localities mentioned
Prairie chickens, sage hens and pine hens are
rapidly diminishing in supply all over the state.
The game commissioner thinks the present law
should be amended to protect these birds
from the ravages of the hunters until their num-
bers are greatly increased
Wild ducks are well protected under the
present law and its beneficial effects may be noted
any bright morning along the streams and sloughs
west of town The matter of the right. however,
for one set of men to purchase all the
available duck swamp land In which these birds
wont to congregate, and under the protection
of law prevent others from taking any ducks
whatever frequenting the waters such lands is
one on which many people, and especially those
who not financially able to pay $1,000 or more
for a membership in q gun club. remains skepti-
cal. 1t is fact that almost all the available
duck grounds surrounding Salt Lake City are
covered with membership clubs. which with the
authority of law proclaim to the ordinary hunter
that he may not enter there for the purpose of
hunting ducks unless he is armed with member
ship certificate indicating possession OF cer-
tain number Of shares in some gun club.
Following this principle to its logical conclusion,
1t will not be many years before every stream
In the state will be covered with private owner
ship signs, forbiddng any person to fish hunt
along the streams fenced In. upon ponds and
public waters hedged in by gun and duck clubs.

n RID farming is the newest OF the
I@\ In quiet way it is accomplish
ing more than any other single
agency in the making of new Utah Because
its wonders are performed in silent sagebrush
valleys, far from the eyes of investigators and
writer's not especially interested, very little
light has been thrown upon its work.
As a science it seeks the development
through evolution, of a grain so hard and
drouth resisting it will grow as sagebrusll
grows in any watcrless soil For the soil it
seeks method of treatment that saves to
it through the hot summer maximum per-
centage of the winters SNOW and the springs
rain, As factor of Utah industrial life, in
five seasons it has increased the value OF
thousands of sagebrusf acres from $I.5o per
acre with no takers, to $40 Or more per acre
with lively demand where land can be had
in large tracts.
The place it is taking in the new industrial
Utah is suggested in the fact that with but
few years of experimenting behind it, it has
already redeemed more miles of Utah des-
crt than has irrigation in all the 81 years of
its constant use.
'tDry farming as the art formerly was
called, was developed into a science in Utah
by Dr.. John A. Widtsoe, now president OF
the Agricultural college. His DOG Valley"
experiment was what sent interest i'll the sci
ence on fleet wings over southern Utah. To
all who inquired he told the secrets, fall plow-
ing, soil, culture, and seed selection on which
results depend and he exhibited these results
in the terms of actual bushels and pecks, to
those who came to his desert farm in the
Levan hills, innocent of all suggestion of
ditch irrigation.
That was FIVE years ago. AT the time the
only land in the dry section Of .Tuab valleys
southern portion that had been located upon
was the piece on which stood switchmans
switch house. He had lapsed his rights after
making the first payment. This land now
could not be bought at SIS per. acre, and
produces good interest upon sum larger
than this.
The kind of wheat used for arid farming
has. changed each year with new develop
nents. The farmer can no longer afford to
pass over the work of the experimentors and
college investigators, and the farmer who
puts in crop of wheat this fall without first
finding out what was the latest result in ex-
perinentaton, will probably pay decided
penalty next summer in minimum results
from his possibilities.
With arid farming il, Utah Prof Lewis.
A. Merrill has been closely identified from
its very beginning. In responding. to an lnvi-
walton from the News" to discuss the re-
suits obtained this year, he has thrown much
light on what has been done, and indicates

the lines where the present state of expert
mentation rests. A similar article written a
year from now may tell much that is new, for
the science is one thati is yet in.its infancy.

ing the drouth. In number OF instances where
attempt made TO grow two successive crops.
the long period of drouth resulted in dismal
failure for these crops and the lesson taught to
the arid farmers OF the state that IL success
is to be attained, there can be but little deviation
from the methods already outlined by those who
have made study of this subject
THEN AND NOW.
During the summer the writer had the privilege
of visiting one field of 800 in Juab county
The wheat was of uniform height in full head,
and ready for the harvester, The last time he
visited this field. some five years ago. it was coy
cred with heavy sagebrush, and gave little pro-
mise of what the future had in store. The sight
most beautiful and inspiring and would GER
tanly be an object lesson to those who have been
pessi1nisc regarding the success of this move
ment. Two hundred of this field yielded S5
bushels per acre. the average Of the whole field
being 81 bushels. Mr.. Isaac II. Grace manager
OF this farm, has adhered strictly to the proper
methods, brief outline of which is herewith

labor is or is not wanted it is wanted
on the land, and all food comes from
the land. Talk of interest! There is
no interest like that you get when you
put seed into the ground. You have
only to prepare the soil, and put the
seed in, and the rest is all profit. The
actual part of profit comes out of the
