Notice of Meeting Raymond Netci Bervict TTHE signing of the Deficiency Bill, making the J60.000.000 for Crop and Seed Prcduction Loans available, was good news for farmers who are now buying seed, fertilizers, and other supplies. The bill wil be a boost for American Industry, since the Farm Credit Admini tration suggests that borrowers buy American-mad- e supplies. AgrlcuP tural leaders have long felt that farmers should support American industry by using fertilizers made In the United States, such as America nitrate of soda, sulphate of ammonia and potash. C.

Knudson, 52, prominent farmer and resident of Portage, died suddenly Friday evening while attend ing to his farm work. Death was due, according to the attending physician, to acute indigestion. Mr. Knudson had been working on his farm and was transferring some of his machinery, which he had attached to a truck, and was in the act of entering the truck when the attack struck him and he died instantly. His son, who had stepped into the truck a moment before, heard a groan and immediately got out to find his father lying upon the ground. The deceased was the son of Neils and Laurine Knudson and was born at Deweyville in 1882. He was married to Barbara Ellen Germer at Brig ham City February 20, 1907. They moved to Raft River Valley, Idaho, where they resided for six years, then moved to Portage where they have since resided. The deceased has been an active worker and an industrious and successful farmer. Friendly and help ful in his nature, he has attached to him many warm friends who regret his passing so early in life. He is survived by his wife and seven children, Leland, Asael, Eldon, Ida, Lyle and Billie, all of Portage; and Mrs. H. D. Thomas, of Tremon ton. Three brothers, Hans of Portage; John of Tremonton; and Will of Dewthree sisters, Mrs. Frank eyville; Dustman, of Madsen; Mrs. Annie Bee ton, of Woodruff; and Mrs. James Poulsen, a twin sister of the deceas ed, of Petersboro; and one grandson also survive.

Long before the arrival of the cortage, every available seat was oc cupied in the main building and the overflow room. Banks of flowers completely filled the lower and upper rostrums of the chapel together with the nearly 900 people who attended the services were a part of the tri butes of the esteem and love in which the deceased and her families were held.

Sowels, underwriter for the Federal Housing administration for Utah, and Edward D. Anderson, chief architect of the F. H. A., were guest speakers at the Lions club luncheon Wednesday evening. A very educational discussion of this act was delivered by these men-MSowels explaining in detail the requirements of the borrower under the act In order to qualify for the loan Insurance. He reported that the state of Utah was eighth in the United States with nearly forty institutions ready to make loans to those who can qualify. He stated that they were receiving applications from 15 of them now. Mr. Anderson explained the type of house to construct which would meet the requirements of the act and be more satisfactory to all concerned. When an application is received for a new construction it must be accompanied by blue prints, plans and specifications, he said. The speaker said that 30 of the applications now being received are for new construcr. tions. Both speakers told of the improvement of work conditions and in many places in the state that irauesinen were all busy. A check up by Ed Thoir.pson, chairman of the F. H. A. of th-- j Liona club, showed that at the present time there were eight new homes to be constructed as soon as the applications could get through au;d an equal number to be remodeled. From, all Indications, Tremonton is to enjoy the biggest building boom it has ever had, Mr. Thompson said. Following the discussion by the above speakers, a motion was made that the club attend the District convention to be held at Lcgan next Tuesday evening.
