Heat Wave Broken With the heavy rainfall which lasted almost an hour here Mon-day, .relief came to this section from the severest heat wave which has been sweeping the entire coun-try. The shower which fell Monday was entirely local In nature but oth-er sections have had local showers also during the week and it Is be-lieved the backbone of the terrific heat wave has been broken. While only a half dozen deaths from heat have been recorded In Utah, reports from almost every state throughout the nation Indi-cate fatalities from this cause dur-ing the past two weeks will run in-to thousands.

Fish and Game Ass'n Seeks Aid Yellowstone Park, Wyo., July 28 A request for $480,000 federal appropriation to further fish cul-ture of four states was the out-standing move of the Intemioutnaln Fish and Game conference which met for two duyg at Lake Lodge In Yellowstone Park July 20 and 21. Distribution of these funds would provide fish hatcheries and rearing ponds iu Glacier, Yellowstone and Tetou National Parks, and rearing and holding ponds in Wyoming, Ut-ah, Montaa and Idaho. John T. 8cott, memler of the fish and game commission of Wy-oming, was elected chairman of the conference for the ensuing year, and George Baggley, chief ranger of Yellowstone Park, waa named sec-retary. It was decided to hold the fourth annual meeting in 1832 at Lake Lodge again. Pleas for recognition of the wild life conservation problem as an onomlc measure and not a sports- - men's whim were made repeatedly during the conference. It was pointed out that school children, service clubs, commercial clubs and businessmen In general must be en-listed to preach the gospel of con-servation. Addresses were madeby Dr. J. Wi. Hazaard, Salt Lake City, mem-ber of the U. S. Bureau of Fisher-ies; Joseph Dixon, Berkeley, Cal-if., of the Wild Life Research di-vision of the National Park Ser-vice; Glen A. Smith, president of the Montana Sportsmen's Associa-tion and of the U. S. Forest Ser-vice: R. H. Hill, Montana state game warden; and ML P. Bulley, member of the Idaho game and fish department. Utah had the largest tylepa-tio- n, 30: Wyoming had six; Mon-tana five; Idaho three; California and Colorado each two; Washing-ton one; Yellowstone park nine and Teton park one. , ' j Farm Bureau At Midvale August 5 The leading activities which will be featured by the Salt Lake Coun-- , tj Farm Bureau at Its annual out-ing to be held at Midvale on Aug-ust S will be a county flower show, Junior livestock show, girls' 4-- club exhibits, a horse-pullin- g con-test, and a baseball game between the leading east-aid- e and west-sid- e teams of the Farm Bureau's league. A geenral sports program which will Include horse-sho- e pitching, tennis, play-groun- d baseball, races and various other novelty contests will also be conducted. The flower show alone,, which is sponsored by the Home and Com-munity section of the Farm Bu-reau, will le representative of practically every community of the county according to Mrs. Margar-et Prltchard, president of the Home and Community section. Mrs. Pritchard states that the home owners of the county have been very active in flower garden work this year, and that over a thousand entries will be made. The Junior livestock show, which will Include lragely purebred live-stock owned by 4-- Club boys and girls, and also stock and poultry owned by the Future Farmers of the Jordan, Grnnlte and Cyprus High schools, promises to provide keen competition in showmanship as weir as in the entries of the various classes of stock. Girls 4-- Club exhibits repre-sented by 30 club groups having ov-er 300 members, who are carrying on clothing and foods projects, will be supervised by Mrs. Ivy L. Hull, county home demonstration agent. The base-ba- ll game promises to he a very interesting contest as the competing teams will be the win-ners of the east-sid- e and west-sid- e leagues, which make up the Salt Lake County Farm Bureau League of 13 teams. The horse-pullin- g contest will be carried on in the way by using a wagon with cross-locke- d wheels. Entries will be confined to Salt Lake County teams of the medium and heavy weight classes. Mayor Porter of Midvale, with the assistance of a very active com-mittee, Is putting the grounds of the Midvale Junior High school and the Midvale First Ward church In the best condition for the occasion. The church grounds are Ideal for the outing as there are several hundred large shade trees, and the ground area is in grass. The grounds committee plans to pro-vide several hundred benches. Utah Ranks 8th In Education T'tah now has less than 5,000 il-literates. The reduction of the num-ber of persons unable to read and write during the past decade from 1.24 to 4,040 leaves a task which the new Illiteracy Committee in the state can approach hopefully.. With 1.2 per cent of her popula-tion above ten years of age still un-able to make use of the pencil and book, Utah ranks eighth among the forty-eig- states and the District of Columbia in having least Illiter-acy, Kansas Nebraska and South Dakota ranking above her, while Iowa has less than 1 per cent, and Oregon, Washington and Idaho, 1 per cent. In a state which has always ex-erted itself strongly in behalf of education, the illiteracy problem of Utah Is not on its face a great one. When it is remembered that single counties in Georgia and Louisiana, for example, wiped out at one stroke more illiterates In ten years Ithan there are In the whole State of Utah, obviously these counties have individually challenged en-tire states. It should disturb public-spirite- d citizens of Utah to observe that In spite of a decline In the Illiteracy of the state as a whole during the past decade, actually the number of native white illiterates increas-ed from S25 to 052. There are now in the state 1,547 foreign-bor- n white Uliteartes and 2,111 compris-ing other races, being principally Indians. Utah, on the other hand, can boast of having one county in which there Is not a single illit-erate. This is-- Daggett. There are three counties In the state with 10 or less ; fourteen with 5 or less, ; and twenty with less than 100 Illit-erates, compared with eight with more than 100.

We are willing to agree "THIS IS THE PLACE" but thousands who participated In the Wagon Days celebration last week are of the opinion that July.24lh is not an Ideal time to hold a mammoth street parade. Secretary of State Stlmpson Warns "Germany to Stop Com-plaining" reads one news headline. Perhaaps the same advice would be appropriate to all other nations also. To follow such advice, how-ever, would take the joy out of life for a large number of people whose chief hobby Is complaining and kicking about everything and everybody. Grasshoppers are (eating their way across middle-western- " states, according to late dlsatches from iDes Moines. Compared to the accuracy attain-ed in astronomy and kindred scientific research discoveries, jit appears the seemingly more simple problems of entomology, horticul-ture, etc., are far in the back-ground.
