PLANT BETS EARLY
INCREASED YIELD RESULT

With the adjustment of the beet
price controversy and the Mountain
States Beet Growers association
using its influence toward securing
as large an acreage of sugar beets
as possible, the agricultural depart
ment of the Great Western Sugar
company has launched an "early
planting" campaign among growers.
From every Great Western fac
tory personal cards or letters are
going to the farmers, urging the
seeding of beet fields at the earliest
possible date, consistent with the
requirements of good farming prac-
tice in each locality. Fieldmen of
the company are aiding in the I'M
mediate planting of fields which f..r
some time have been prepared for
bee sowings. Farmers are o-ope
ating i'm a most satisfactory spirit,
according to reports from every dls-
trict.
Increased yields per acre are
among the hopes held out for the
early planting of beet seed on we'll
frmed, properly fitted seed beds
Early planting this yar," stated
n. r. McGreary, Colorado districr
manager of the company, gives
greater promise of increased yield
than in most other seasons. The
moisture that generally falls in
April will terminate seed that is in
the ground. Yet, the snow or rain
may come in such quantity that the
fields not planted may be greatly
delayed. While in some localities
soil conditions are SO dry that good
seed beds cannot be prepared with
out moisture and while beets should
not be planted unless conditions are
right, those fields which have beel
prepared should be seeded at the
earliest possible date. Early plant
ing will be much more likely to give
a good termination stand from
which can be blocked out a thinncd
stand earer the ideal than with
delayed planting"
H. C. Geise, agricultural super
1ntendent of the Fort Morgan and
Brush factories, cited figures from
those localities on last years crop,
proving the higher yields obtained
on the earlier planted fields.

ELK PLENTIFUL THRU
STATE THIS YEAR

T. c. Thompson, deputy state
game and fish commissioner, re-
turned to Cheyenne last week from
a trip of inspection to the new state
fish hatchery near Laramie. The
state this yea he reported, will
follow insofar as is feasible the
Matching of only native fish eggs at
the seven state ~hatcheries. and for
the purpose of obtaining native
rainbow spawn for the Laramie
hatchery a spawn-collecting station
will be located on either Sodagreen's
lake or Lake Hattie about May Is
Heretofore much of the spawn for
the state hatcheries has been i'm
ported from other states.
Thompson, who has been on a
trip of inspection through the state,
reports that elk, moose and deer
are in excellent condition and that
the 1925 increase will be large. A
census of elk in the Jackson Hole
region just completed to the game
and fish department, revealed $500
elk on the winter range of the Gros
IVentre and between 1000 and 5000
head on the feed grounds in Jack
son Hole. There is plenty of hay
available for feeding should there
be evere late storms. Thompson
reports. No loss of elk from starva-
ton occurred in any section of Wy
oming during the last winter. the
deputy commissioner states.
There are in Wyoming between
1000 and $4,000 elk, according
to information collected by the fish
and game department. In addition
to those in the Jackson Hole and
eros Ventre sections, there are
about 600 head in the Medicine
Bow range, about 1900 head in the
Big Horn range and between 1000
and 5000 head in the Cody AMI
Lander regions. The day Thompson
visited Dubois about 20 elk strol!ed
thru the settlement.
