This possible effect on the wheat problem is one reason why the Adjustment Administration, through Its emergency drouth service, is making every effort to keep the best cattle on the farms. This will make It possible to maintain herds that have been built up through many years of effort, and will avoid forcing these livestock farmers back Into wheat growing. Such a shift to wheat pro duction would tend to complicate the whole wheat problem, just when material progress has taken place in acreage and surplus reduction, Mr. Peterson says. Wheat farmers of the country have a a definite interest in the emergency rattle-buyin-g program which is being carried out by the Agricultural Adjustment Administration In the acute drouth areas, says William Peterson, state director of extension work. The emergency program is aiding In orderly reduction of surplus e cattle numbers from farms in ithe drouth regions, and at the same dime it aims at retaining the best Less than two pounds of radium breeding stock of dairy and beef herds on these farms so that farmers are available for use in the entire can and will remain in the livestock world today. business.

Sunday at 6:20 a. m., John R. Brown of Murray, driving north in a large truck, crashed Into a telephone pole at south Brigham. The truck was badly damaged, but Mr. Brown escaped Injury. Mr. and Mrs. John W. Phillips and daughter. Miss Amy Lee Phillips, and Miss Roma Lee of this city returned Sunday evening from an automobile trip to Montana and Yellow- stone National Park. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Nielson, Ira Nielson and Miss Rula Holmes returned Friday from a weeks vacation trip to Los Angeles, California. They were accompanied to Los Angeles by Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Knud-so- n, who had been visiting here. Co-operati- Sought So Contract Can Get Under Way. on J. R. Iakisch, resident engineer for the Ogden River Pine View dam project, Saturday telegraphed President Ora Bundy of the water users association from Denver that project specifications are practically complete. The reclamation service, however, still demands that 100 per cent of the land purchase contracts for the dam and reservoir be signed before the government will advertise for bids on the three million dollar project, he said. President Bundy said that all of contracts but seven the have been signed by the owners and the government. If these remaining contracts are signed at once, he said, the reclamation service will undoubtedly advertise for bids so that work can be started early in September. Such an early start, he continued, would mean a great saving In the cost, for the water at the present time Is the lowest In years, which would facilitate work on the city wells collecting system and installation of the new pipe line from the wells to a point below the dam. Also, the contractor could complete the diversion tunnel this fall and winter In time to take care of the flood and runoff water next spring without delaying other features of construction. A delay of only two or three weeks at this time, said Mr. Bundy, would probably result In a sufficient loss of time in getting started on the work to make it impossible for the contractor to do any of his preliminary work this fall, which would delay the actual construction work until late next year. This in turn would deprive farmers of irrigation water from the dam for 1936, and would deprive so many men of employment at a time when they need it so badly. President Bundy congratulated the people of Ogden valley upon their which has ensplendid abled the project to progress thus far. He expressed the hope that "the few remaining contracts can be signed immediately in order that work can land-purcha- se start soon. Our Heritage The Pioneers By ABBIE R.

As we gathered fruit from the wild cherry tree Our babe would laugh In the merriest glee, But we'd quickly hush its mirth for fear A cruel savage might be lurking near Yet worldly pleasures were quite forgot As we lived content on our little plot, For we builded as best we builders could In healthy vigor, with axe and wood.
