Ohlcials of the bureau Of animal in

ton between these figures. Where
there are many cattle clippings release
of territory from quarantine is much
more probable. than where there are
few. Where there are no clippings

County are Pleasing
News Letter From Washington
Endorses Plan of Utilizing
Our Ditch Banks
AFFORD SPLENDID PASTURE

| The Bingham county Udaho) farm
bureau has urged every farmer, dur
ing the past year, to utilize all ir-
rigation ditch banks. On irrigated
farm of from eighty to 16O acres
| it has been estimated that the ditch
take up from three to twelve acres.
! This not only reduces the cultivated
area, but is frequently source of
much trouble and financial loss, in
much as the farm bitches are likely
to become mass of sweet clover,
willows and weeds and the natural
breeding place of injurious insects,
such as alfalfa weevils, false chinch
bugs and grasshoppers.
One man has made his ditch bank
pay well. He has an eighty acre
farm, thru which there is a ditch
1854 feet long and ten feet wide. In
1917 the ditch bank and an adjoin-
ing strip of alfalfa embracing one
and half acres were fenced off and
used to pasture number of regis
tered Hampshire ewes and lambs,
the sheep being run on it on alter
nate two weeks. The actual patch
was four and one third acres. The
CouAs VI Ihc uISt year blOWcu LudC
this pasture would carry 129 head
of sheep each alternate two weeks,
or an average of fourteen head
pasture continuously.
In August forty-three lambs,
weighing total of 2,17S.5 pounds
or an average Of 50.7 pounds per
head, were turned on one-third acre
of this ditch bank pasture, which had
been cut off with temporary fence.
The pasture at that time consisted
of rank growth of blue grass, white
clover, willows and weeds. The
fOrty-three lambs were held on this
area for fifteen days and harvested
the growth rather than pastured it.
The result showed the lambs gained
at the rate Of 264.5 pounds per acre
pastured, which at IA cents q pound
would amount to a return of $37.05
an acre.
No. more labor was required in
building the temporary fence than It
would have required to cut the will
ows and weeds. In addition to the
profit returned the lambs did an ex-
sellent job in cleaning up the ditch
banks. .,,...
