Bulletin No. 66 - Corn Experiments, Luther Foster, Lewis A. Merrill
UAES Bulletins
A number of varieties of flint and dent corns have been successfully grown at the Experiment Station for the past ten years. A sufficiently large number of kinds have been under test to prove beyond question that all of the best flint varieties, the smaller dents and the semi-dents will fully mature in the locality of the Experiment Station, the extreme northern portion of the State; but the climatic conditions cannot be considered as especially favorable to corn growing, the seasons being rather too short and the general temperature too low for the medium and larger dents to be successfully …
Bulletin No. 63 - Sugar Beets In Sanpete And Sevier Counties, Luther Foster
Bulletin No. 63 - Sugar Beets In Sanpete And Sevier Counties, Luther Foster
UAES Bulletins
The co-operative experiments in sugar beet culture for the past season were confined to the farmers of Sanpete and Sevier counties. They were carried on in conjunction with an organization formed by the citizens of the two counties and known as the Sanpete-Sevier Sugar Company. This association was organized at a delegate convention, held at Gunnison Feb. 17, 1899, which was composed of the representatives from all of the principal settlements in the two counties. Bishop Christian A. Madsen, the chief promoter of the movement was chosen president of the company, Mr. C. A. Short secretary, and Mr. Thomas Kearnes, …

Bulletin No. 61 - Alfalfa Or Lucern: The Cutting Time. Its Feeding Value., Luther Foster, Lewis A. Merrill
UAES Bulletins
These experiments, as originally planed, had for their object the determination of the best time to cut alfalfa in order to secure the most profitable annual yield, its chemical composition, digestibility and the results of feeding trials being considered. A comparison of the yield and feeding value of the first, second and third crops was also made a part of the investigation, and as with the different cuttings, the composition and digestibility formed a part of the work. In conducting this experiment to determine the comparative feeding value of the various cuttings and of the different crops of alfalfa, some …

Bulletin No. 56 - Field Experiments With Wheat, Oats, And Barley, Lewis A. Merrill
UAES Bulletins
The testing of varieties is by no means the most important work of the Station. It, however, has its value in bringing into the State [Utah], and acclimating, new varieties that may be suited to our conditions better than any now grown. The results reached in these tests ought to receive the careful attention of our farmers, because success in raising cereals depends upon securing the varieties best suited to our purpose, and in growing those in greatest demand.
The experiments recorded in the following pages give the results of variety tests with wheat, oats and barley, and, in addition, …
Bulletin No. 55 - Orchard Pests, U. P. Hendrick
Bulletin No. 55 - Orchard Pests, U. P. Hendrick
UAES Bulletins
While great advancement is being made in knowledge and treatment of orchard pests, yet the fruit growers of Utah still need and ask for information regarding the common pests found in their orchards. To supply this need is what this Bulletin attempts to do--to bring together in brief and practical form the present knowledge of the common orchard pests of Utah.
Bulletin No. 53 - Utah Sugar Beets (1897), John A. Widtsoe
Bulletin No. 53 - Utah Sugar Beets (1897), John A. Widtsoe
UAES Bulletins
Although the success of the Utah Sugar Co. has proved that sugar beets can be raised profitably in Utah, the farmer of the State, as well as others who are interested in the erection of sugar factories, desire a more accurate knowledge of the possibilities of the sugar beet in the various parts of the State, than can be obtained from isolated and uncontrolled tests. The Utah Experiment Station carried on, therefore, during the season of 1897, a co-operative sugar beet experiment with the farmers of Utah.

Bulletin No. 46 - Earthen Dams, Samuel Fortier
UAES Bulletins
According to the last census, 92 1/2 per cent of the Utah farms are irrigated. The advancement of agriculture in this State mainly depends upon the water, the available supply of which, in many of the older settled localities of the State, is already wholly utilized during the irrigation period. The future reclamation of new lands in such localities must, therefore, wait on the development of new sources of supply from storage reservoirs, sub-surface supplies, or from a more economical use of the summer flow of the available streams.
From estimates and measurements made by the hydrographers. of the United …
Bulletin No. 44 - Alfalfa Or Lucerne, A. A. Mills
Bulletin No. 44 - Alfalfa Or Lucerne, A. A. Mills
UAES Bulletins
This bulletin gives the details of trials with alfalfa for the two years of 1894-5 and 1895-6. It also gives a summary of the results for three seasons. Bulletin 31 of the Station gives the details of the year's work not given here. Attention is also called to the work reported in bulletin 40 of this Station, in regard to feeding grasses, mostly alfalfa, to pigs.

Bulletin No. 39 - "Farming Irrigation" And "Orchard Irrigation", A. A. Mills, E. S. Richman
UAES Bulletins
The greater part of the matter given under the head "Farm Irrigation" is the result of five years' work. Some of the work reported gives the results obtained in fewer seasons. A great deal of the work was planned by Prof. J. VV. Sanborn, formerly Director of the Station, while the remainder was planned by the writer. The writer, however, has had charge of every detail of all of the field work from the beginning. Some of the matter has been published before, while a goodly portion of it has never been reported. For this publication the figures have been …

Bulletin No. 36 - Relative Value Of Corn And Oats For Horses, A. A. Mills
UAES Bulletins
This Bulletin reports the continuation of the study of the best nutritive ratio for horses under moderate work. The experiment was so arranged that a direct comparison could be made between oats and corn as the principal grain ration. The work was planned by Prof. J. W. Sanborn, who was then Director of the Station.

Bulletin No. 35 - Steer Feeding, A. A. Mills
UAES Bulletins
The object of this Bulletin is to give and discuss the results of experiments, herein detailed, in regard to the system, prevalent here, "of keeping cattle on hay and other coarse foods during the winter, then feeding grain for a few weeks in the spring just previous to selling. All over the inter-mountain region very little grain is fed, and what little is used is fed with the idea that an animal which has been kept poorly can be filled up with profit in a very short period, just before selling. The idea was to test these questions, and to …

Bulletin No. 34 - Relative Value Of Wheat, Peas, Corn And Barley In The Production Of Pork, A. A. Mills
UAES Bulletins
This bulletin treats of the use of wheat, peas, corn, and barley when mixed with bran and fed to pigs, the idea being to see if, by using one-half bran, the above grains could not be fed with profit, and also to test the relative value of the mixtures.

Bulletin No. 31 - Time To Harvest Lucerne. Mulching., J. W. Sanborn
UAES Bulletins
The opinion has prevailed in scientific as well as in practical circles, that hay cut before or during bloom is more valuable, pound for pound, than when cut at a later period, and it is even maintained that the gross product per acre is more valuable. The old assumption, now somewhat modified, that as plants mature a part of the starch and sugar is converted into fibre, and that the nutrition of the stem is moved into the seed, led to the belief that early-cut hay was both more digestible and more valuable than that cut at a later period. …

Bulletin No. 33 - 1. Grazing Values Of Varieties Of Grass. 2. Drilling Vs. Broadcasting Grass Seed., J. W. Sanborn
UAES Bulletins
In the annual report for 1893, we published the result of experiments in grazing nine varieties of grass and clover, plus the grazing value of a plat of all these varieties mixed. There were some unequal conditions in the trial and it was continued over until the present season.
On May 23, two steers were placed upon each of the ten lots, enclosed by wire fence, to remain there for the period of one month, in artier to observe the length of time the varieties would carry these steers and the growth derived from the varieties. Several reasons prevented the …
