It is a sport coupe sold in February, 1928. by the Utah Auto and Implement Co. to the Federal Land T5ank inspector, J. A. Capener, of Riverside, and was not the worst for carrying a a mileage of 61,261 miles. Mr. Taylor states Mr. Capener drove the car over all kinds of roads in the intermountain territory, and has some strange tales tell about his trips, one of which is evidenced by the imprint of a bullet on the windshield. The tale is that he was riding along a deserted roadway one night when a stray bullet hit his windshield penetrating part of the way through. Although he saw no one he did not stop to'find out who held the gun that shot it, being only to glad to put distance between him and the place of the encounter. Mr. Capener received approximately $6,000 as mileage allowed by the government for the running of this car and brings it back home, trading it in on a new model and saying about it, "well done". Horace Miller, young Ruby valley rancher, was killed instantly Sunday morning when the car in which he was riding turned over on Ruby Valley road about a mile south of Lutt's ranch. The car was driven by John Peltier of Wells, who was but slightly injured. The front tire blew out, jerking the automobile violently to one side, Peltier lost control: Miller was thrown clear and the car rolled over him, fracturing his skull and crushing his chest. The body is to be sent to Farming-toUtah. Tuesday for burial. He was 33 years of age, and came to this county in 1915. He served in me world war, after which he settled in Ruby valley. He is survived by his mother, six sisters, Mrs. Vaughan, Ruby .valley; Mrs. August Roswer, Elko; Mrs. Arvil Smith, Farmington, Utah; Mrs. Joe Anderson, Salt Lake; Mrs. , Ralph Lewis, Soldier Summit, Utr.h; Mrs. Frank P o u s e n, Susanville; two brothers, C.

The total volume of eggs exported from this state during the past six months was 850 carloads, containing 340,200 cases of about 10,200,000 dozen. This is compared with 458 carloads cv 180,000 cases for the first Wednesday about noon the home of half of last year, or a gain of nearly Fred Coombs, of Fielding, was com 100 per cent, in volume as well as pletely destroyed by fire. According to Saving Home Of Fred Coombs, At Fielding total value. The huge shipments include the production of approximately 5,000 poultry men located in about every county in the state. Both the volume and the $3,000,000 in new wealth which is brought into Utah, break all records for any six months in the history of the local poultry industry. Practicaly all of the eggs were shipped to the New York City market where they were sold directly by the association's agency under Benjamin Brown, director of markets. During this period last year the average unit price received was about 32c per dozen. This year, despite the greatly demoralized condition of business generally, the high quality Utah eggs commanded an average price of 30c per dozen. The total turnover of the Utah Poultry association for the last six months was over $5,000,000 including besides eggs, $1,285,000 for feed, and $730,000 for all types of poultry and miscellaneous. The egg production and A.al volume during the next six I months will be greatly increased by the laying of young pullets and the sale of Thanksgiving and Christmas turkey pools. " W. Larson, Jr., Weds Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Larson received a telegram announcing the marriage of their son, John W. Larson, Jr., and Miss Genera Pett, at St. Louis, Mo. Mr. Larson is a promising young engineer in the employ of the Curtiss-WrigAirplane Co. of New York City.

Hearty con- gratulation are extended the reports the occupants were preparing the noon-da- y meal, having just made the fire when a small boy of the family said he could smell something burning. Upon investigation, it was found that the roof was on fire, supposedly from a spark from the chimney. Two or three men climbed to the roof and attempted to put out the blaze but apparently it had been burning underneath 'before it was visible from the outside. In less then ten minutes more than fifty people had gathered, but because of low pressure of water it was utterly impossible to put out the flames and in one half hour it was burned to the ground. Some of the furniture was saved and through the herotic efforts of those assembled the outbuildings, including chicken coops and brooker house, were saved. The building was a ,two story frame building containing five or six rooms and according to reports was partly covered by insurance. newly-wed- s.

Explains A An experimental tract of beets consisting of 10 acres is conducted by the o Sugar Co. at Garland for the purpose of ascertaining the benefits securing additional per acre by some tests carried on. This tract of land has grown grain, beets, and red clover alternating for four year periods for about 20 years and was plowed up from clover in the fall of 1928 and planted in beets in the spring of 1929 and yielded a medium crop of beets. In the spring of 1930 it was worked up very thoroughly lengthwise and crosswise with a sweed harrow and floated and harrowed until it was in, very mellow condition for planting on April 8, using 20 lbs. of seed per acre. On one plot was planted 200 lbs. of super phosphate per acre, with a grain drill before the beets were planted drilling phosphate in rows 7 inches apart. The next tract of equal size we did not use any kind of fertilizer. On the next plat we used 200 lbs. of applied with a beet drill with fertilizer attachment, the phosphate being applied with the beet seed at the space of 20 If. apart. On the next plat we applied 200 lbs of and 200 lbs. Ammonian sulphate;; the next plat 160 lb. phosphate per acre; then next 150 lbs. phosphate and 150 lbs. ammonium sulphate; then 100 lbs. of phosphate per acre; then 100 lbs. phosphate and 100 lbs sulphate per acre; then 50 lbs of phosphate; then 50 lbs. of phosphate and 60 lbs of sulfate; then 113 lbs. of phosphate and 6 tons of manure per acre; then 113 lbs. of phosphate and 12 tons of manure; then 113 lbs. of phosphate and 18 tons of manure. There are also two separate tracts for comparison of equal size, one of which a special thinner was hired to leave one hundred beets per hundred ft. but to leave the poorest beets he could see and on the other tract he was to take special pains to leave the largest beets, which he has done and there is now a marked difference in the appearance of the two methods followed. These several tracts will be harvested and weighed separately and the results will be published so that all may learn which of the methods will prove the most profitable. On this experimental field the company has eleven small tracts planted to that many kinds of foreign seed, the pur- of which is to ascertain the fose that will give the best results in this locality. Some varieties are from Germany, some from Denmark and the balance from Belgium. ey super-phospha- super-phospha- Farewell Testimonial Given Willard Johnson Services At 10:30 A. M.

First is depletion. A farm can go on forever producing its commodity, of with occasional replacements machinery or short periods of "rest" for the soil. But every time a ton of ore is taken from a given mine, a ton less is left. The life of a mine is limited, while the life of other property is unlimited. Second, mines represent fixed property. A manufacturing business can or congo elsewhere if it is over-taxe- d ditions: are poor. A mine must be operated in one locatity or close up.

Hunsaker. fntA Anf in X't f Vi Foreign Labor Import Laid At Farmers Doors ' In the Baltimore Sun, Duncan sums up the various factors involved in the Mexican immigration question saying that veto of the Mexican quota bill, which recently passed the Senate, would cause joy in the Southwest as the merchants of the border towns fear retaliatory measures if it goes into effect. "The whole region, from the beet fields of Utah and Colorado to the citrus fruit orchands of Californai, has become increasingly dependent on Mexican labor for harvesting its crops, maintaining its railroads and doing work. d other unskilled and "The whole economic structure of this territory is built upon the principle that Mexican labor is plentiful, always available for long term or short term jobs."
