Richf ield.iCedar .Cily, Ogdei Logan, Price and Vernal, each conference to comprise a group of counties. The meeting at Provo will be the first of the series. In speaking of the Utah Industrial council, John G. M. Barnes, president of the Utah Associated Industries, said that the one outstanding need of the state is a collective thinking on statewide problems. He added: "It is the hope through the Utah Industrial council to give statewide aspect to all our problems and to away, as far as possible, with the provincial aspect of affairs. "There is also need for a better understanding between the different elements in our citizenship, so that whatever is done will be found for the common good. Utah has made great advances in cooperative action, which has resulted largely In the unifying of our interests. "It Is the hope of the Utah Industrial council to accentuate and maintain that condition as an offset to any influences that may be brought to bear that would prove negative in omobiles In Headon Collision , Remember the Cemetery Clean-u- p Monday, April 16th.

Inspit of the fact that well kept and clean corrals are not objectionable, yet the location of such places for the keeping of livestock Is important. The proper place for a corral Is the back end of a lot or the center of a block rather than a stieet front. The planting of trees and shrubs about the house should then be so planned as to partly hide these buildings from the plain view of the street. Along some of our Btreets are a few places which very badly need remodeling with reference to location, plan, and neatness.
