Farm Bureau Notes

Commencement exercises were
held in the Lone Tree district Thurs
day evening.
The regular meeting of the Soda
Lake Community center was held
Saturday evening.
C. w Creel. farm bureau extern
sion director, and R. G. Foster. wes-
tern county agent leader visited Fal-
Ion last week in the interest of farm
bureau work.
The local farm bureau office Is
urging farmers to estimate the num-
ber of hay hands they will need for
the coming season. A large number
of men are now being employed on
road work and when the haying
commences there will be difficulty In
getting the required help.
saltwater people are seriously
considering the establishment of a
cheese factory at that place. Milk
from 200 cows could be secured to
keep the factory busy. One feature
of the location at Saltwater would
be the use of hot water from the
we'll there which would eliminate
the necessity of buying fuel.

Motor Vehicle Law
Will Be Enforced

As a result of the recent fragrant
violations of the state motor vehicle
law relative to the displaying of cur
rent license plates in both front and
rear of motor vehicles, Inspector
Dan Renear of the state police has
been instructed by Warden Henrichs
of the state penitentiary to cooper
ate with local officers in all parts of
the state to secure a rigid enforce
ment of the law.
Inspector Renear stated that in
many instances owners OF motor ye-
hicles neglect to have both a rear
and front license plate on their car
and in some cases have no plate at
all. He declared that hundreds of
motor vehicle owners evade the law
yearly by not paying the license tax.
The maximum penalty for the mis-
demeanor is a fine of $500 and six
months in the county Jail
The campaign to rigidly enforce
the law was instigated by Secretary
of State George Brodigan, who in a
letter to Governor Boyle called the
attention of the governor TO the nu-
merous violations of the law. Gov
ernor Boyle instructed Warden Hen
richs to order the state police to
leave Immediately for various parts
of the state to cooperate with local
officers in the laws enforcement
Governor Boyle, in his letter to
Warden Henrichs, called the war
den's attention to the fact that it is
from the payment of motor vehicle
licenses that the state hopes to res
deem the state highway bonds and
that the rigid enforcement of the
law is a vital necessity Reno

Proper Irrigation of
Cantaloupes Essential


Cantaloupe growers generally are
neglecting a very important item in
the care of tie crop Irrigation is
receiving too little attention by the
growers. insufficient amounts of
water are being provided for the
plants. Every day in which can't
aloupe plant suffers for the want of
water puts the maturity and early
production of that plant back a
greater length of time than the act
ual days in which the plant suffers
for water. The grower must real
ize that the plant while suffering for
water is not making the root growth,
and. what is more important, the
leaf growth where the food for the
roots are made and prepared.
Too many eantaloupe patches yis-
tied are found to be badly in need
of water. In many instances the
ground was cracked and hard. 1t is
necessary to say that ground in
cracking tears the roots apart and
Injuries the plant beyond measure
Furthermore, there are no soil foods
in solution available for the young
tender growing plant. @
Cantaloupe seed are planted an
inch below the surface. If this up
per inch of soil becomes dry the
seed will not germinate. After the
seed has terminated if this upper
inch is dry the plant has a difficult
time in forcing its way out to and
through the surface. If the upper
surface is dry after the plant ap-
pears, the stems suffer often times
sufficiently to prevent the plant juice
from circulating down through the
outer surface of the tender stem.
Anything which prevents the free
flow of plant juices or the absorp-
tion through the roots of soil food
solutions causes a distinct check and
in many cases a period where no
growth occurs in the plant.
If the growers will examine the
moisture condition of the soil often
and carefully and use his own judg-
ment in applying water, much earl
ier and better results will be OBJ
tanned.
