The extension of the dry-farming area in Utah and the bringing of many thousands of acres of virgin land under wheat cultivation, in large farms, has, in recent years, caused much improvement in the use of farm machinery. One great improvement has been the adoption of the Combined Harvester, which cuts, threshes and sacks the grain in one operation in the field at a minimum of cost. This has been an important factor in the success of the dry-farming movement.

Bulletin No. 108 - The Effect Of Formalin On The Vitality Of Seed Grain, Robert Stewart, John Stephens
UAES Bulletins
The Utah Experiment Station for a number of years has recommended the formalin treatment for the prevention of smut in wheat, oats and barley. Since the publication of Bulletin No. 84 by Prof. L. A. Merrill on the Subject, a number of complaints regarding the treatment have been received. We learned, also, by traveling over the state, that these complaints were quite general. The work reported in this bulletin was undertaken for the purpose of throwing light on these questions, and it is hoped that the results obtained will be of value to the farmers of the state.
