The condi- tions under which they study must be healthful. health-ful. " In poorly ventilated schoolrooms, and in rooms where the heat is uneven and "spotty," vour children's health and school work will both suffer. Sanitary drinking 'fountains, toilet rooms and lavatories, are also of great importance and provide real health protection." " Exert your influence to make all schools sanitary and healthful by means of modern heating, heat-ing, ventilating and plumbing.

Plumbing and Heating TELEPHONE 49J MAIN STREET, LEHI 8 Market Stability Seen By Gignoux 400 Per Cant Increase In Utah, Idaho Product Shown; Outlook Good. Utah and Idaho agriculturalists and dairymen will see a stability, in their conditions during 1924, which has never heretofore been known. Is the prediction of C. C. Gignoux, assistant assist-ant supervisor of agriculture for the Union Pacific railroad system, following follow-ing his return Sunday from a survey ot Idaho prospects. There la ever reason to believe that the coming year will be the most prosperous In the history of the two states from a dairy ing7poultfyraIsIng "and 'agricultural 'agricul-tural standpoint,; he said. Surveying the accomplishments In dairying and. poultry... raising ln Idaho, he declared that 'products from these Industries have Increased approximately ap-proximately 400 per cent in the pas two years. In. 1921, 44 cars of butter, 88 cars of cheese. 12 cars ot eggs,' 12 cars of poultry, and six mixed can of poultry and dairy products were shipped ship-ped out of the state, making a total of 159 cars. For the first 11 months of 1923 120 cars of butter, 19$ can of Cheese, 148 cars of eggs and 161 cars of mixed products, making a total of 568 cars, were shipped out. according to Mr. Gignoux. He estimates that 66 per cent of this Increase in production was accomplished la 1923. Production., in the two states W be increased at least CO to 100 per cent during 1924, the agricultural supervisor Deueves. "There la a large increase In the coast demand for Utah and Idaho dairy products" he aald. "If dairymen and shippers are alive to their opportunities a per manent market will be maintained there." . 8wlne breeding Is also on the increase in-crease In Idaho, Mr. Gignoux reports. He attended the Idaho Swine Grow era' association's convention at Nampa, Idaho, Saturday, when J. H. Manderfleld, manager of the Salt Lake stockyards was one of the speakers. speak-ers. Portland, Salt Lake, and Cali fornia centers were shown to be the chief markets for Idaho hogs. Idaho hog receipts at North Portland-grew from 13,77? in 1921 to 121,208 In 1923, according to Mr. Gignoux. The Salt Lake market shows a proportionate increase, he said. -Vast Increase In the acreage of corn la also noted In Idaho, thou sands of acres being raised in .1923 where there were hundreds in 1921, according to Mr. Gignoux. Sugar beet raising is also becoming more popular and farmers are beginning to realize the value of by-products of the beet to dairy and livestock men, he said. Davis County Sells Big Crop of Onions at Fancy Price Farmers of Davis County are de monstrating that onions are a strong" crop In other respects than the matter of smell, according to W. J. Thayne, of the Extension Division of the Utah Agricultural College, and agricultural agent, who reports that 73 carloads of Utah Sweet Valenclas were 'shipped from that county during the past summer. Not only was the" quantity great, however, how-ever, for the onions ot Davis County have gained such a reputation for quality that almost the entire ship ment commanded a fancy price. For some years the value ot onion culture has been known to the farm ers of this regtos. With the cooperation cooper-ation of the Davis County Demon stration Farm of the Agricultural College Experiment Station, varieties especially suited to the locality have been developed. Being unable to se cure a sumcieni quantity or.cerunea seed In America for the demand last spring, the Farm Bureau was obliged to order a supply abroad. Due to the efforts ol Senator Reed Smoot a supply sup-ply was obtained through the American Ameri-can Consul at Valencia, Spain. This special care war taken be- cause of the tact that the various business agencies of the county have been carrying on a vigorous advertising campaign and It waa therefore considered that the onlv sate course was ttrbd sure -that the product offered to the growing market mar-ket should be -of - tua JferjchJgbest quality. Most of the producers offered offer-ed their product for sale through a marketing and growers' association that was created recently for this pur pose. : All ot the onions' sold through the association this year commanded a price that averaged $2.15 per .hundred. Thla la regarded as a clear saving of 11.15 since some of the grower outside out-side of the Association who contracted contract-ed their crop laat spring, which was the common method before the Association Associ-ation was formed,' received only $1.00 It is thought that It will be possible next year for the entire crop to be planted 'trora selected seed grown, in the county. o INCOME TAX IN NUTSHELL WHO Single persons who had net Income Ot $1,000 or more or gross income ot $5,000 or more, and married couples who had net Income of $2,000 or more or gross Income ot $3,000 or more must file returns. .
