Already several men are employed in the milling plant of the Utah Rock Asphalt company at Sunnyside, making it ready for an increased capacity that seems to be assured for the summer season. The effort to construct a new road to the mine from the canyon, so that the material can be trucked to the mill direct from the pit, without the use of the tramway, seems to be headed toward success. Financial aid is being sought from the State Department of Publicity and Industrial Development to assist in this project, and further aid is also sought from the State Road commission and also from Carbon county. In these latter cases the asphalt company assures repayasment in the delivery use. for highway phalt With the increased cost of rpad oil, and even with its threatened shortage in the market, the demand for rock asphalt, the natural road building material, will no doubt be greatly increased. Already large orders have been received from such cities as Las Vegas, and other Nevada points, and much is also promised to be used throughout western Colorado. Utah highways have taken most all of this material produced in the past, and all of the highways in Carbon County, as well of a as in Price and Helper are paved Time to Fix Up That Yard; Spring Is Here Once More Spring is here and in that season a young mans fancy . . . Why they never made up an expression to suit the ladies is a point of conjecture but ask any woman and she will tell you that in the spring a womans work really gets started. Don't get the impression that they dont work the other seasons of the year but in the spring its a matter of doing everything at one time, or in other words, a general house cleaning. But the urge' to compete with the beauty of Mother Nature is not confined to the inside of the house alone. - This is the season when the outside should be whipped. into fine style, with landscaping to touch up yards and to add to the attractiveness of the home, inside and out. This is, generally speaking, a mans job but whether or not the men admit it, it takes the prodding of the little woman to get the job done. Yes, a mans fancy should be diverted to the yard and a beautiful yard is more than compensation for the enough work that is put into it. 111 , , with this material.

Coal processing has attracted attention of Congress in a bill presented by Congressman Walter K. Granger of the First Congressioral District of Utah. This bill has been discussed by the Carbon County Chamber of Commerce Coal Liquification Committee headed by Dr. F. V. Colombo, of Dragerton, Carbon county authorities have taken action that they desire a plant be placed in Utah, so it can use Utah coal, but are desirous of getting in on a long range program arid a permanent project, rather than an experimental plant, if at all possible. Further action indicates that after discussing the matter with Congressman Granger, the committee will act along the lines decided as being to the best advantage to the state. The bill presented by Congressman Granger is as follows.
