XO. i'i i4 g teams and many single hands left yesterday morning for Fremont pas where they will open a road to reach an area of virgin timber and dry wood. The project is un-the direction of the relief committee, and about a mile of new wagon road will be built to give access to this large quantity of firewood. Dry wood within resonable hauling distance is becoming scarce, and this is the first attempt to open up virgin territory. It will prove a boon to the wood sup ply for another winter. This is the only one of the many worth while projects that the relief committee has worked out for Beaver. A dozen er wood-haule- rs Beaver ccrunty farmers have plan ted 1750 young trees which they ob tained from the Utah State Agricultural college this year. The greater portion of this number has been planted on the Milford flat in west Beaver county, where several groves planted (luring the past few years are reported to be growing well. In this section the trees are being plan ted mostly for windbreaks for farm homes. X & Beaver's prolonged winter, of snow, rain and cold, has subsided to some extent this week. While the moisture was welcomed by the farm ers, the sheepmen suffered losses in infant lambs, due to the severe cold stormy weather at lambing time One of the small sheep owners- on North Creek reports taking 45 dead lambs from his flock in one morn ing last week. Little shearing has been done, although in most years shearing is completed by this time The snows and rains, however, have put the ground in excellent condition, and the cold wheather has retarded the snow in the mountains from molting, promising later Irri gation water, and probably at a time when it will be most needed. In all, the crop out look in this section is better than for several years. rK movement in the northern part of the state that is proving quite successful in the propagation o f pheasants, maybe emulated here, under the direction of the local Fish and name Club. Eggs from the state game farm are being furnished to members of boys club who agree to set the eggs under- - the hens, and care for the young birds until they are large enough to take care of themselves. Hundreds of pheasants are being raised by the hoys in and around Logan, and if the club here is able to secure the eggs from' the game farm, it is believe many members of the boys scouts and other organizations will assist In the project.

This method proved very effective a few years ago, and by placing the poison meats on the top of posts, eliminates the danger of any domestic animal getting the bait.

It comes in the form of the little red poppy that we wjll all be asked to wear on "Poppy Day", May 27. It tells us to serve and sacrifice for our country now with the same patriotic spirit that those men who served and died among the poppies in France in 1918. The poppy is a symbol of rememberance for the World War dead. Poppies glowing on every coat on "Poppy Day", will show that we still remember and honor the supreme sacrifice our war dead made for America. A country which remembers deed such as their's cannot be indifferent to present calls for patriotic service. As long as the memory of our heroes is kept bright, America can be confident that heroic service will come from its citizens In evey hour of need. The women of the American Legion Auxilary, who will bring us the poppies on "Poppy Day", are carrying out a very valuable work for the country. With their memorial flowers they are helping the keep alive a memory more precious than vast material riches memory of men who were billing to die that America might live in feedom and happiness. With thl'poppy contributions, they are helping carry on for the disabled veterans and fatherless families. With poppy they are calling to us all to carry on for America in the spirit of those heroic me,n the flower commemorates. Every American who is a true American should show his response by wearing a poppy on "Poppy Day". Mrs. Eva Thornton, Killed While Enroute To Visit Her Husband. Mrs. Eva Thornton, of Parowan, a neiec of Vene Orton and Ezra Thornton of Beaver, was killed in an automobile accident near Las Vegas Mondey afternoon as she was rushing from her home to be hi with her husband who is critically ill in a Las Vegas hospital. According to report made to the sheriff's office by J. H. Wiltsey, also of Parowan, who was driving the car Mrs. Thornton, holding BILL WAIVING MINE ASSESMENT WORK Under the direction of Representative Murdock of Utah, aided by Representative White of Idaho, congress Friday passed the Borah bill, passed by the senate, previously waiving the requirements of assessment work on mining claims during the year ending July, 1933. Claim owners who paid a federal tax on 1932 incomes will be barred from benefits under the bill. All claimants desiring to take advantage of the new law must register their intentions with the local land office. This is the only bill to pass the house this session of congress that was not a part of the president's program, and this fact imperiled the bill until Mr. Murdock went to the front when an attack was made by Representative Blanton of Texas, who set out to kill the bill because it was not on the president's program. Murdock showed ' that it was an emergency bill; that it was endorsed by the present and preceding secretaries of the Interior, and that its prompt passage was imparative if thousands of claims are to be protected against claim jumpers. ' Murdock persuaded friends of the bill to refrain from making speeches, with the result that when he answered Blanton the bill passed with out amendment, and was sent to the president for his signature. o COUNTY LEADER CLUBS FORMS IN BEAVER CITY 4-- H clubs were organized In Four Beaver Friday under the direction of Miss Lorraine Price, Beaver county club leader, as follows: First year Mrs. Mary Goodwin, leader; Jane Murdock, president; Lois Patterson, Hazel secretary-treasurelone Burke, are released.

(i May 28 FARM NEWS NOTES By LEW MAR PRICE County Agent Outline Weed Control Project definite outline of plans made now for the control of noxious weeds during this season will be found to work out best in that project this year. When crops are planted on the infested areas, water is applied to the growing crops, and the weeds thrive and spread rapidly. After plans are made for control-in- g the weeds probably the first step to follow will be to plow a ditch well outside of the weed patch to keep all water out of that area. Dry weeds usually are not thrifty. With the limited funds available this year it is doubtful if county or state will assist In the purchase of for weed control. any chemicals Clean cultivation and drouth will probably be the most practical plan. Already some have adopted this plan for this year, and they are insured against a quarantine being placed on the crops grown on the adjacent area.
