Pamphlet Describes Land Survey “Surveying our Public Lands,” a new publication on public land surveys in the United States, has been issued by the Bureau of Land .Management, the Depart ment of the Intenor announced. The 16-page illustrated booklet will be of interest to both tech nical and non-technical people, the Department said. It will be especially aseful to teachers and students. The new pamphlet traces the history of surveying from the early Egyptians to the modern high speed scientific methods used in the United States today. The publication describes the ‘ rectangular survey system, which is used only in the United States and Canada. The rectangular survey sys tem was established in 1785 by the Continental Congress to meet the need for orderly sur vey and settlement of the newly acquired public domain, which stretched from western Pennsyl vania to the Pacific Ocean. The Bureau of Land Manage ment is responsible for all public land surveys in the United States in addition to other multiple use programs on 477 million acres of publie lands from Florida to Alaska. “Surveying Our Public Lands" may be purchased for M cents from the Superintendent of Do cuments, U.

Choose Irrigated Pasture Mixtures To fit Conditions Farmers and ranchers who are planning to put in irrigated pastures this spring are remind ed by agronomists at Montana State College to choose careful ly the grass-legume mixture they] I will use . Some 20 grass-legume mix tures are recommended for ir ! rigated pastures in Montana, the agronomists point out. The com position of these mixtures de pends on environment and the state is divided into six districts for the purpose of recommend ing mixtures. In addition, the mixtures are designed for specific conditions 1 within the districts such as well drained soils and for particular i purposes such as permanent pastures or short time rotation pastures. Further selection may be needed to fit a mixture to conditions on the individual farm. Information on these mixtures imay be obtained from County 'Extension Agents. Also, a num ber of mixtures are listed in the I Montana Agricultural Experi ment Station circular, “Forage Crop Varieties for Montana.” Copies of this circular are avail able at County Extension Of fices. Crops under reseal loans in Montana include wheat of the 1969, 1958 and 1957 crops and barley of the 1959 and 1968 crops. Rates of the advance storage payments are 7 cents per bushel. The remaining storage payment due will be paid — at similar rates — after the maturity dates of loans, which are March 31 for wheat and April 30 for barley.
