Passing Review
Of Year 1862
By MARSHALL TOME

The year 1862 has been of the most historic
in the history of the Navajo Tribe particularly
the last few months. While there have been many re-
markable accompl ishments Of which we ar e proud.
Navajo times., 1963-01-03

Cnoro also roma ms Otner
problems yet to be solved.
One of the many out
standing accomplishments
of the Navajo Tribe has
been the planning for the
harvesting of the timber
on Tribal lands which be-
gan some 13 year ago
and finally became a re-
ality September 6, 1862.
The significance of this
industry is that it will not
only produce 35 to SO mil
lion board feet of lumber
a year, but it gave e M
plOyment opportunities to
45OOr more Navajos in all
phases of it's operation.
Thirteen long years we
have waited for the open
ing and the beginning Of
the operation of this en-
terprise, and many of us
witnes S ed the opening
ceremony on the first day
Of the Tribal Fair. Our
Navajo people as we'll as
guests of the Tribe we're
amazed as we'll as proud
of this step forward in the
development of our tim
ber resources and more
particularly at the Tribes
development of an indus
try with a resulting large
payroll. Our mill is known
all over the country to be
one of the most modern of
it's type and m any have
said that it is the most
modern pine mill in the
country.
Another step taken is
the N avajo Irrigation
Project Dew elopme ent,
when the President signed
the bill into law on June 13,
1862.
This marks the conclu-
sion of long difficult fight
for the proponents of the
1921 millionproject. This
W as the first big water
project of the Kennedy Ad-
ministration. The irriga-
tionprojectwill soon help
the Indians to a h i gh e r.
standard of living through
their own resources. $135
million was allotted for
this portion of the project.
At this point, Paul
Jones, Chairman of the
Navajo Tribal Council,
tOld President Kennedy,
"I'm gonna have a lot of
news to tell my people,
thatI saw you andyou sign
ed that bill. "

COTTON

Good seed bed preparation
is the first step toward get
ting the cotton crop off to
a good start. Make sure the
seed bed is of uniform height
and width. Prepare the seed
bed long enough before plant
ing that it will be moist and
firm. Good seed bed prepare
ton can spell the difference
between good mechanical
operation and poor operation.
If you plan on post emery
ing with oil or chemicals it
is necessary that you have a
flat, smooth bed, in order
to do a good job of applying
post emergence oil or other
chemicals. 1t will also enable
you to do a good flaming
Job later on in the year.
Before cotton planting time
mount your planters and test
them out to see if they are
doing the proper job of plant
ing. Mount your pre-emerge
rigs for applying your pre-
emerge at planting time.
Test out all your hose and
pipes to see that your pre-
emergence rigs are in good
working conditions. Be sure
you replace old hose and old
tips that you have used to
pre-emerge before.
Brass pre-emerge tips, af-
ter being in use for 80 hours,
will wear enough to put out
eight to ten per cent more
material than they would
put out when they were new,
If your pre-emerge tips are
of brass it would be well to
discard them and buy a stain
less steel tip. The stainless
steel tips will stand much
more wear than your brass
tips and cost much less in
the long run due to apply
ing the amount it is cali
brated to apply. Be sure and
calibrate your machine to

GRAZING

It would be we'll to make
your plans to plant som e
temporary summer grazing
for your livestock in order to
allow your pasture to rest
some during the summer. A
bout one-third per COW of
temporary grazing will re-
lieve your pasture situation
considerably during the hot,
dry summer months.
Sudan or millet will make
excellent temporary grazing
planted at the rate of 80
pounds seed per acre broad
cast or ten to IL pounds per
acre in rows. Apply 60 units
of nitrate before planting.

Wheat Program
Offers Small
Growers Choice

Farmers with allotment.

historical share Of wheat as
provided by the 1864 wheat
program, Orville E. Bostick,
Chairman of the Mississippi
Agricultural Sterilization ano
Conservation State Commit.
tee, said today. The new
legislation enacted last fall
recognizes the contribution OF
such growers to the nations
supply of wheat.
AS explained by the chair
man each farm will have an
allotment based on the larger
of one computed from tn e
average wheat acreage Cup to
Is acres) in the three years
1959-61 or the regular allot-
ment. Wheat grown on farms
without a wheat history in
these three years will b e
subject to a marketing quota
penalty in 1864.
The new wheat program
will offer two choices to the
farm operator with a 1864
wheat allotment Of less than
Is acres:
ID He may choose to par
ticipate in the program as an
allotment grower, in which
case he will be eligible to
vote in the wheat referen-
dunn, will qualify for price
support, and will receive his
share of the marketing certi-
ficates. (The certificates will
provide a higher rate of
price support and will be
available on about 80 per
cent of the normal yield on
the allotted acreage. A lower
rate of support will be avail
able on the rest of the wheat
produced on the farm.) A
small grower will also have
the opportunity to divert all
his allotment to conserving
uses at the high so per cent
rate.
(2) He can stay out of the
program and plant wheat up
to the larger of his three
year base or his 1864 allot-
ment. Marketing quota penal
ties will apply to wheat in
excess of this limit. He will
receive no price support. He
can sell his wheat at the nom
certificated wheat market
price, or as seed or feed, or
use it in any way that he
likes.
Mr.. Bostick pointed out
that these small farm opera
tors with wheat allotments of
less than Is acres will be
asked to register their choice
at their Asses county office
at least seven days prior to
the time the wheat referen-
dunn is held. This will be
within 60 days after procla-
nation of the national wheat
marketing quota, which will
not. likely be announced un-
til late March or early April.
The program will become eff
fective if at least two-thirds
of the growers voting ap-
prove the program.

LoNc-L1FE G BULBS

The regular-type light bulb
instead of the long-life bulb,
is still your best bet when
it comes to cost and amount
of light it gives. These regu-
lar bulbs give more light for
the amount of current used
than the long-life bulbs.
Consumer specialists of the
u. S. Department of Agricul-
ture explain it this way:
The new bulbs have fila
ments that do not get as hot
as those of regular bulbs.
Consequently, they last long
err, but give less light.
A regular incandescent light
bulb costs about Is cents.
During its life of about $50
hours, it will use up five to
six times its original cost in
electricity.
This ratio is better than
that Of the long-life bulbs
which cost more to buy and
to use. NlHV

PASTURES

Grasses have begun to
grow and now is an excellent
time to top dress your pas
ture grass with 40 units of
nitrogen per acre. Each acre
of grass pasture top dressed
while there is sufficient mois-
ture in the soil will give you
two to three times more graz
ng per acre than the soils
will without application of
nitrogen. On clover pastures
it is advisable to apply 60
units each of phosphate and
potash per acre if you have
not already done so.

this treatment to kill thrips and cut
