long lease on an apartment in
Brentwood, half a block away
from the home of Peter Lawford's
parents, Sir Sidney and Lady Law

he is in town. And Sharman's idea
in staying here, apart from any
feelings of affection for Peter, is
to have a career in Holly

Betty Hutton is positively doing

Value Of Water Reservoirs

Hay is a big crop at the farm with
from $50 to 800 tons put up each
year. Some of this is usually sold.
The hay is a mixture of alfalfa, clover
and timothy. The seeding rate is
about 10 pounds of alfalfa and 5
pounds of clover and timothy mixed
per acre. About rs acres of irrigated
small grain, oats and barley, is grown
each year, mostly for livestock feed
ing in winter, but some is sold as

Drainage Ditch
Reclainls Land
By HARRY Y. STOTT
Teton County

FIRST LET ME say that it is too
bad that land should be allowed to
get into a condition where it would
need retaining at high cost to any
operator now or in the future. Had
a good domestic grass been seeded
some years back perhaps this land
would have become a good hay
meadow or pasture, but it had
reached the point where only alkali
weed and foxtail would grow.
1t was plain to see that something
would have to be done to prevent
any further loss of valuable land.
After the formation of the Teton
Soil Conservation district in 1947,
I Immediately sought their help. A
soil survey was made to determine
the types of soils and what they
would be best suited for. This gives
me the overall picture Of what the

Red Glover Seed Crop
Nets Good Profit

A RED CLOVER seed crop in 1949
turned out to be one of the highest
producing, high-income crops grown
at the Hill brothers farm, edward,
William and Sam), Carbon county.
The 26-acre field, in clover for the
first time, yielded ATS pounds of
clean seed per acre. The seed was
sold for $40 or $50 per 100 pounds.
A little arithmetic will tell you that
this irrigated clover field added
about $4,000 to the cash farm income.
The same field looks promising
for a seed crop again this year. But,
as Sam Hill explained, even though
the seed crop might not come
through every year, there would still
be a crop of good hay. The clover
is clipped the last part of June and
then let grow for seed. And of
course this clipping yields some hay
for the livestock also-about one
ton per acre.
The clover is irrigated once before

The drain continued to run

until it was frozen in the early VIM
ter. It didn't take long for the land
to dry out, and I was able to work
it three times during the summer.
BY all appearances the drain is do
ing what I expected it to, however,
a short addition may be needed at
the upper end of the ditch to COM

tons of the farm are best suited for.
In the early fall of 1913, IS test
holes were made to determine where
the water was coming from that was
causing the trouble on the poorly
drained, saline soils, also to deter
mine the water table and types of
soils down to 10 feet. BY spring of
1949, the soil conservation service
had obtained enough information to
show that an open drain could be
used in an effort to reclaim the 80
or more acres of wet ground.
A ,dragline was contracted to do
the work. "A total of 4,134.4 yards
of dirt was moved. Mats had to be
used in moving 1894 yards of the
total The cost to me was $1,0O4.4 6;
however, there will be government
payment to cover part of this cost.

/ learned, too, that it isn't feasible
to build dam with the intention of
making it larger later. When you en-
large a dam you run into a expen-
sive process of getting dirt a dis
lance away from the original fill.
You can't possibly get dirt from
inside the dam which has held water
during the season because it will
be too wet.

Rainfall Abruptly
Hats Hay Harvest
On Reservation

Rainfall on the Blackfeet Res
ervation brought haying to an
abrupt standstill last week. Dur
ing the two previous weeks the
harvest was daily increasing in
volume as crop maturity reached
the proper stage.
Barring too many reveIes in
weather, indications are that this
seasons crop will compare with
some of the best in past years.
With a long favorable autumn,
haying will continue through that
period.
Hail so far has spared reserva-
ton grain stands in the western
part of the county. However, in
other sections it has wrought
damage as heavy as Is per cent.
County Surveyor Johnston and
Hugo Aronson are reported tC
have been among those w t h
