Yellowstone Higher Now
Than Has Been In Many Years
Erosion Is
BECOMING
A Problem

The Yellowstone River has
been running high and muddy
the past two weeks.
Several of Sidney'S older resi-
dents report that this is the
highest June raise in many
years. Although no serious
flooding has occurred, many
land owners along the Yellow
stone River valley report heavy
bank erosion and cutting away
Of crop land.
Walt Anderson, Work Unit
Conservationist for the Soil
Conservation Service accom-
panied by Ralph Beier with
Jack Knoop as pilot flew over
the Yellowstone River Sunday
morning to inspect erosion prob
lens along the river. Anderson
took a number of pictures
which will be used to compare
with pictures a year from now
to assess cropland loss due to
stream bank erosion and to de-
termine possible future courses
of the river.
Charal Farms, owned by
Ralph Beier and Kenneth
Chadderdon. has been un-
der serious erosion by the
Yellowstone for a number
of years. The aerial in
spection, however. shows
the river quite probably
is changing its course TO the
east which will eliminate
further erosion TO land in
that area. Other points.
however, are not so favor
ably situated.
The land along the O'Brien
farm and downstream north
past the Newton farm, George
Haffner farm and Groskinsky
farm to within five miles of
Sidney is under heavy attack
by the river, according to An
derson. George Haffner re-
ported in a telephone CONVEX
sation Tuesday that his place
and neighboring farms have
lost much farm land during
the last two years and Haffne1
expressed deep concern about
the erosion of his farmland ir
the future.
The Lower Yellowstone Ir-
rigation project has had Il
move their irrigation latera
twice in the last 2 years in thi'
area. The old Pete Storholn
farm as well as the Jay Lalondc
farm, on the west side of The
river, have also incurred lanS
losses this spring.
As Anderson pointed out,

breaks up and again when
the June raise occurs.

About this time every year
we begin to notice brown
spots coming in our lawns
with the grass dying. Most
all the time these conditions
ere caused by insects parti-
cularly chinch bug on ST.
Augustine grass. These in
sects can be controlled by
ar application of some good
insecticide. Dieldren granules
have given excellent results
in controlling chinch bugs on
our lawns. Apply the granules
to your lawn grasses appro-
ximately two pounds of the
granules for each 1000 square
feet of space. After applying,
take hose and wet thoroughly
so that the granules will be
dissolved and enter into the
sod where it will come in con-
tact with the insect causing
the trouble or apply just be-
fore a shower if at all posi-
BILE but keep in mind that the
grass has to be wet after ap-
plying the insecticide either
by rain or a hose in order to
do a good job of killing the
insects on the lawn. If you
have a heavy infestatiOn of
the insects it would be we'll
to apply a second application
in two weeks to kill out newly
Matched bugs.

Cotton -
The cotton insect situation
appears to be about like it
bass been in the past few
weeks. Very few if any boil
weevil and not enough boil
worm eggs are being laid to
justify poisoning tor boil
worms.
IN checking cotton fields in
and around Lexington Mon
day morning, | found one or
two bollweevll punctures ana
only one bollWorm egg after
looking in eight or ten difte-
rent cotton fields for about
a two hour period but | would
like to urge each cotton pro-
Queer to check his cotton at
least two or three times eacn
week for bollWorm eggs and
small bollWormS. | believe
that bollWorms will be our
biggest problem in insect con-
troll this year and it is about
time for another bollWorm
hatchout during this week and
the week of July Il 27. Keep
a watch for these worms and
do not let them get the upper
hand of you to start with.
Worms are easy to kill if you
get them Immediately after
the hatchout.
W. will continue to exa-
mine cotton fields each day
throughout the week and if
we begin to see an increase
in bollworm activity we will
try to let the farmers of the
county know by putting it on
the radio station several
times each day during the
week or you may call the
County Agents office as to
what we are finding in the
fields from day to day.

Farm Safety Week -
The week that begins Sun
day, July 81, is the annual
National Farm Safety Week.
Whether you live on a farm
Tor not, take advantage OF
this week to remove safety
hazards and to learn the rules
Iof safety.
On Mississippi farm drown
lings and firearms take the
most lives. But in the home,
falls are at the top OF the
list of accident causes.
Here is a finding or a re-
cent Pennsylvania Health De-
|partment study: Men and Wo-
linen between the ages OF 70
and A are as likely to fall
downstairs as a baby or older
person. The common belief is
that falls happen oily to
children under five and per
Isons over IS. Those under ;
and over IS are likely TO be
killed by a fall, whereas the
middle-aged are injured.
Ladies, the report showed
too, that more females than
males Except under 81 were
treated in hospitals for fall
Injuries. So be careful this
week and all weeks.

Pastures -
With the amount Of moist
ure that we have in the
ground at this time grass
would certainly grow much
faster if you would apply "a
bout 80 to 40 units Of nitro
gen per acre on your grass
pastures. 1t is true that our
grasses are going to grow
much better after this rain
but will not last long if we
have another dry spell later
on in the summer whereas
if you should apply nitrogen
while you have plepty of
moisture in the soil you would
have much more grass to
take you through the next dry
spell and winter than you
would have if you apply no
fertilizer. The money that
you spend applying nitrogen
at this time could mean more
profit to you than any other
money you spend during the
year.

After a slight summer lull, the Palmer Volunteer Fire De- partment ambulance drive re- surned it's onward march by passing $6,000, and is now reaching for the $7000 mark, drive chairman William Her mann reported this week.
 The biggest boost during the past week came from a size able contribution from [ h e stockholders and management of the Matanuska Valley Bank. Hermann said He pointed out that the service areas of the bank and of the ambulance are similar, extending to the far reaches of the proposed Mata- nuska- -Susitna borough.
 Through it's fine contribu- ton the bank reaffirms it's faith and belief in the growth of the valley" the chairman stated.

they Just seem to cry out for
q bright look indoors, too. In
some city apartments with
those glassed in cubicles
examining people in like sar-
dimes, there is q need for a
gayer, vivid color scheme to
bring the outdoors in.
The more sedate town
house, however, naturally de-
mands a more formal type
Of elegance and hence q more
muted type Of color scheme.
It would appear, according
to Mr.. Cady, that the right
Of individual expression Is
very strong in home decorat-
ing today and one Of the
best ways Of achieving 1t Is
in ones choice Of color
Schemes.
"One Of the leading home
fashion magazine illustrates
this point very effectively"
says Mr.. Cady. by showing
that one Of the best ways to
express a color personality in
the home is by a straight
forward concentration - q
massing of stronger hues in
one or two sizeable areas
surrounded by neutrals."
You can make whatever
color you use really count
for something and when the
time comes for a change
