New Pasture Mixture
Proves Productive

A SEEDED GRASS mixture for
irrigated pastures which has outpro-
duced three competing pasture mix
lures over a three-year period was
described in a report from the Alton
substation farm of the University of
Wyoming.
The mixture, consisting of smooth
bronze grass, orchard grass, alsike
clover, and white clover, has pro-
duced at an average rate of 5,445
pounds of air-dry grass yearly since
1915, when the pasture was estab-
1ished, according to r. J. Hyer, SUBJ
station director. 1t produced 7,045
pounds in 1947.
Another mixture, consisting of
smooth bronze, orchard grass, mead
ow fescue, alsike clover, and ladino
clover, produced 7,165 pounds of air.
dry grass per acre in 1947, but has
averaged only 5000 pounds of dry
grass since 1945, Hyer reported.
An old pasture consisting of Ken
lucky blue grass and clover pro-
duced 6,523 pounds of dry grass per
acre in 1947 and averaged 4,944
pounds for a three-year period. A
mixture of smooth bronze, orchard
grass, alta fescue, perennial rye,
grass, yellow sweet clover, and
white clover produced 5,172 pounds
in 1947 and averaged 1903 pounds
for a three-year period.

What About Irrigation?
Continued from page y

Continued from page y
the five year average IN some items
to twice as much on others. Per
capita expenditures for some meat
and dairy items in 1947 were as
much as five times the 1859 aver
age. Meat and dairy products are
things which go well with irrigated
lands.
Replace Lost Land
No one can deny that much of
farm land has lost in produc-
tivity because of wind and water
erosion. Such loss in the productive
capacity of the nations farm plant
may require the substitution of irri-
gated land in the west. Certainly,
too, irrigated land gives the nation
a more stable agricultural produc-
ton that is not SO subject to the ups
and downs of weather conditions.
Consider the plight of the nation if
the great drouth of the 1905 had
occurred in the midst of our ire
mendous wartime demand for food.
Farm operators, through their vari-
Gus farm organizations and through
county agricultural planning com
mittees, can contribute a lot to the
soundness of new irrigation develop
ments. By getting the facts and dis
cussing the problem on an intelli-
gent basis, the farmer betters his
chances of participating in decisions
that are in his interest and the in
terest of his neighbors.

Send Bugs to College
for Identification

OFTEN DURING the year, and
especially in the growing season,
farmers have occasion to send speci-
mems of insects to the state entom-
ologist's office at Montana State col
1ege, Bozeman, to have them iden-
titled. However, since many of these
specimens arrive in poor condition,
D. B. Hitchcock, assistant state
entomologist, offers suggestions on
how such specimens may best be
shipped.
Farmers and ranchers are advised
to first show the insect specimen to
their county agent as in many cases
he can identify it and if he cannot
do so he will be glad to take care of
sending it to the state college. In
addition, extension agents like to
know of any new insect in~festations
in their counties.
But where this is not convenient,
here are Hitchcock's suggestions for
sending specimens direct to the col
lege:
Small flying or crawling insects
should be mailed in a box or other
container that will keep them from
being crushed in shipment. Too
often, Hitchcock said, a bug is placed
in an envelope and after going
through the p~ostoffice canceling
machine little is left of the insect
but a mixture of legs, antennae,
wings and other body parts.
Send larval forms in a bottle con-
tanning a little alcohol or formalin
to preserve them. If these preserva-
tives are not available use a jar or
can containing some food, such as
leaves, and punch an air hole or two
in the top of the can. Larval forms
sent without a preservative or with
tainers are either too dry or decom-
posed upon arrival to make identifi-
cation.
Lastly, and very important, send
a letter along giving as much infor-
nation as possible. Tell what crops
the insects are infesting, type of
damage being done, and locality
where found.
Address specimens and letter to
State Entomologist's Office, Mon
tana State College, Bozeman.

Army Halves Jan. Call For Draftees

WASHINGTON, (P)-The army yesterday cut in half it's proposed January draft call for 10000 men. Lack of money was given as the reason.
 At the same time, the army an nounced the February call would be for only 5000 men.
 "The reductions were necessi- tated by the limitation of the bili- tary budget for fiscal 1850 to fif- teen billion dollars, of which $600,000,000 are for stock-piling of strategic raw materials" the na- tional military establishment said in a statement announcing the army plans.
 The new draft calls are far be- low the 3O,OO0 month average which army secretary Royall es- timated last June when plans were being made for the peacetime draft.
 The first call for November was 10000 and the December call 15,OOO.

To Seek Sales Tax For Cities Only

SITKA, (P)-A group of Alaska mayors, after watching Sitka's ex- ample in trying out a 2 per cent sales tax, decided to ask the com ing legislature to legalize a sales tax for cities only
 The tax was started here be- cause school funds were low, and because continued operation of the school was admitted to be a neces- sity no opposition such as a court test has been tried.
 It has been raising about $5,000 a month, city officials told last weeks mayors conference.
 The mayors also decided to ask the legislators to include towns in various revenue-sharing measures to be introduced. Among them are the net income tax, any excise on tobaccos, pinball machines, punch boards and amusements and the present tax on fuel for internal combustion engines.
 Atty. Howard Stabler, Juneau city counsel, will be asked to rep resent the cities at the legislature. Mayor Waino Hendrickson of Jun eau and Mayor Bob Ellis of Ketch- ikan, will be advisors.

Gigantic Business
 Of Post Exchanges Under Scrutiny

WASHINGTON, (P)-A defense establishment committee is study ing the multi-million dollar buSi- ness of army post exchanges and navy ship stores to see, among other things, if there is unfair competition with private business.
 The survey is being made by unit of the munition boards com mittee on facilities and services for the armed forces.
 It includes a check to find Whe- ther and how much consolidation could be accomplished at military installations adjoining or near each other. In some instances, an army or air force post exchange store operates in the same area where navy servicemen' do their buying at a ships store. GA ship store may be located ashore as we'll as aboard ship.
 A spokesman for the defense es- tablishment said:
 "The study includes the sugges- ton that the sales of PX's and ship stores be reduced or restricted 1 closely to prevent unfair compe- tition with civilian merchants.
 "However, the committee has not completed its survey and it probably will be some time before it can make a report"
 The question of competition al ready has been raised on Capitol Hill. A new request that Congress look into the situation was voiced earlier this week by the United States Chamber of Commerce.
 The chamber said both the army and navy appear to have exceed ed their proper sphere of activi- ties" The business organization described this as the sale of small items of personal necessity, con- venience and comfort" to military men and their families

Four Maritime Contracts Still To Be Signed

SAN FRANCISCO, (P1 - The west coast maritime strike was 90 days old yesterday, with settle ments yet to be reached between employers and three sagoing un- ions. A jurisdictional question in- volving a fourth union also re- mained undecided.
 Only CIO longshoremen, whose deadlocked negotiations precipi- tated the long strike last Sept. 2, have ratified new work contract.
 Independent marine firemen late Monday ordered their negatiators to continue talks with the Pacific American shipowners association until a complete package deal'' could be submitted to the workers for approval.
 Still to be negotiated, too, are PASA contracts with CIO marine cooks and stewards and the C1O radio operators.
