Renovating Alfalfa Fields In Early Spring
The article stresses spring renovation of alfalfa to keep soil from hardening. It recommends epike toothed renovator, Deere alfalfa cultivator, and spring toothed harrow, with the steel harrow for final leveling between crowns after harrowing. Do a thorough job each spring, avoid delaying until shoots start, and renovate between crops only if time permits to prevent injuring fast growing shoots.
Forest Notes and Forestry Meetings Across North America
The Canadian forest association will meet next year in Halifax Nova Scotia. A forest service rule requiring sheep dipping has nearly eradicated scab in national forest areas. Maine lumbermen originated using mountain lookout towers with telephones in 1900 for fast detection and suppression of fires. A California firm sells eucalyptus charcoal at 24 dollars a ton vs oak at 20, as eucalyptus trees yield limited lumber. Fifteen small sawmills operate in Powell national forest in southern Utah, 100 miles from rail, run by settlers to meet local needs due to lack of shipment opportunities.

Waste Of Natural Gas In Oklahoma And Beyond
Government data show oil-well districts wasting vast gas produced each year. About 100 million cubic feet of natural gas escapes daily in Oklahoma valued at 20 000 dollars daily or 7 300 000 yearly. Losses mirror California and Louisiana patterns, largely avoidable with modern drilling and precautions. Gasoline content in wasted gas could help lower motor fuel costs.
