Rondc, vialley hag long been a de
batable question. Of such interest
la the solution of this problem Ahal
County Agent Splllman has given
the . matter consideration and fol-
' lowed out every bit of evidence
presented. On the . Znugg ranch

today lie Issued the following in-
, terview: "' , . -;
"Some time - ago I mentioned
the fust that a hardy alfalfa on
thf) Fred Zaugg farm near here
was making a very much bettor
growth than . the, 4 Utah dry- land
(which was growing alongside. This
was the ftist crop. Now the sec
ond crop la ready to harvest, and
tho "'ardy alfalfa will again make
a heavier cutting while the : othe,r
airulfA : will ; niake practically p,o
' second cutting.,. '; .,;., .
"The other day a man came to
me tot - get some, additional 'Infor
mation on hardy: alfalfa. - He told
me he hud just 'came by the Zaugg
field and noticed the great dlffer
eucc) In: the two varieties.- ' Ho 'said
' lie had heard about them, but that
he had no idei (here wm liuah ''a
difference, and consoqueiflly was
very much interested and is In tho
marker for enough seed to sow 20
acres next spring. .. T
'There Is a difference, and it
will pay you, if you are, Interested
to run out to-the Zaugg ' farm
nprth -of town within tho next few
days beloro '.he crop Is again cut
for hay. After the second crop is
harvested - wo will hnvo some In
teresting figures to present to you.
In tho meantime you have an op
portunity to view the contrast."

RED CROSS KNITTERS RECEIVE
"WORD FROM HEADQUARTERS.
1,400,000 Founds of Yarn Is Now
.,",-.' Hands of the Red Cross
.' For Workers. .
In
: That the millions of Red Cross knit
ters may know the plans of the Red
Cross for future Knitting' George E.
.Scott, acting managor of the American
Red Cross, today issued the following
statement: ... - ,
Wfien . the. War Industries Board
some time ago advise"d the Red Cross
that future production- of knitting
yarn would be greatly reduced, we im
mediately commenced to purchase all
yarns suitable. for our knitting. ,As a
result we have today in stock or on
order 1,400,000 pounds of yarn for dis
tribution to our chapters. It is hoped
that we may obtain some additional
yarn from wool unsuitable for govern
ment uses. The expected total will,
however, be considerably Below the ten
mllfftffPirbUnds'Tlsfcd last yefrr. -'While-the
total of yarn we can secure is be
.ih gi ot3' MIMMj H4V Hfk! Btiudyim how
onBeijur-Bnpplyto produce only -gar
ments which are; moat essential. When
a cohcl nslon is reached we 'will- 'an
nounce .our full program ofkri'tjng.
In addition to this stock oyarn,. the
Red Cross has ready,'fpr distribution
l,'0OO,000t''sweatert,'a3'l,000 mufflers,
8!4,O0O:tistlcts, ,228000 helmets and
1,328,000- ; pairs ;it: 'socks, a total- of
3,674,000' articleB.J' We are hopeful
that theso and iuch additional gar
ments as we shall be able to malle
will enable us to meet the more urgent'
requirements of our men during the
coming, winter. ' In this connection it
wil be of interest to the women who
have been knitting to know that from
September 1, 1917, to June 30, 1918,
the Red Cross- 'distributed 6,875,000'
knitted garments to the army and the
navy of -the United.. States. - During
the same period 870,000 knitted arti
cles were Sent . to. the-Rwl Cross com-,
rnissionersi in iFrancc 'and '-'Italy. for
distribution tqj. aoldicra, .snilprs and
civilians.!; ; i. ;-;;'' ' . '. ," ; ' '
At the reh.uc3t;'d tKa' yifar Industries
Board, with wjhiqhihe Red Cross is
working in cloSe cpqperat'oh, we have
urged charfters'inJniiiY'ilua1 workers
not to buy; wcjp.l'ln the open market
but td ecure their mutcrials through
