Edmunds, secretary of the Utah Poultry Producers Cooperative association, a Southernerner and one on whom the burden of detail has devolved in the development of this great Utah Industry characterises the for Eoutheast, Including the Hollidays Murray section and that of Draper, as presenting ideal poultry raising conditions. The phenomenal growth of Utah as an state has won for this commonwealth national recognition in the markets of the country. That the credit for this great growth and recognition should be accorded the Utah Poultry Producers association, there is no question. With the continued growth of our country and the development of Utah as a great Industrial field, there la no doubt that we shall found a number of poultry producers colonisation projects," said Mr. Edmunds. These colonies would be located somewhere on the bench land In the Southeast, which Is absolutely ideal. It would be our Idea to build modern homes with every convenience and modern coops. This organisation would maintain a field service to teach the latest methods of poultry culture." During the quarantine, Mr. Edmonds, as secretary of the association, has been under especially heavy work to endeavor to satisfy the thousand and one demands made upon him on the part of poultry raisers who sought to get the thousands of chicks they were depending on for this seasons work. in The association has every way with the government to prevent the spread of the disease and now the chirks are coming through In substantial quantities. Whoever would have thought a few years ago that Utah, In so short a time, would have become the second state In the Union In point of poultry production? The Interesting thing In that eggs from this state are considered superior and are rated above those comcoming from such paradisical monwealths as California. How can it be, how can It lie? The Southeast Is proud of the role her representative, Mr. Edmonds, has played In developing thla great Industry. Woodward Funeral Services to be Held Friday at 12 oClock The funeral services over the remains of Mrs. R. L. Woodward of 2249 Highland Drive, who died last Tuesday, will be held In the Highland Park ward chapel, Friday at 12 o'clock. The speakers will be Apostle Orson F.

It was a typical Southeast day ! And apparently the Southeast, for that occasion at least ,was in the saddle. THOSE THIRTEEN PRIZES. TO start the day off sprightly, Virgil Hall of the Granite Lumber and Hardware company, presented thirteen attendance prizes. As s rule, the donor on this occasion Is considered especially magnanimous if he gives one prize, but here comes our young. Mr. Hall with thirteen. The reason for the Interesting number was that April 11 represented the thirteenth birthday of the dub. The lucky winners walked off with magnificent pieces of Quality hardware. DR. ALLEN PRESENTS CHARTER. Dr. G. A. Allen of Highland Drive served as toastmaster and presented the members with a formal copy of the dubs charter. He also read an account of the development of the Exchange organisation. business Among the Southeastern men present were, J., A.

Dear Editor: Your article We charge these Jurymen with a flagrant violation of their sacred oaths, la most interesting. 1 do not know much about the case you have reference to, and am, therefore, not In a position to Judge as to the Justification for your attack on the Jury In question, but I have oftpn felt that the Jury system Is becoming s menace to America. Assuming that your charges In the present esse are Justified, and I know they would apply in many other cases, I want to teu yon that such articles as the one in your last issue are going to do more good, are going to do more for America, tliun, perhaps, even you realize. The real patriot Is he who will undertake an unpleasant task in behalf of his country, not the one who Is content to shout approval to every movement that looks like becoming popular, but who frowns when appealed to for help In any olher cause. It 1h nice to know that Utah has few papers of the East Salt Lake Times type. Keep up the good work! Sincerely, FRED L. W. BENNETT. MONTHLY GATHERING TERIZED BY CHARAC- SPLENDID FEELING.

A short time ago, the ordinance under which business houses in the county were licensed, was declared defective. This immediately deprived the sheriff's office of thousands of dollars In receipts, which had always been collectable before. In spite of this loss to the county. Sheriff Harries was able to bring up the revenue of his office for the first three months of this year to within $1000 of the entire first six months of 1923, in spite of the fact that thla latter figure Itself was a smashing record! Fines and forfeitures and civil department receipts for first three months of 1924, $20,074.78. Fines an forfeitures for first six months of 1923, $21,069.04. HARRIES MODEST. In speaking of this splendid show-fothe, sheriff ,1s extremely modest. He eays the credit is due his loyal corps of deputies and associates. JUST A BIT OF COMPLACENT SATISFACTION. At the memorable county convention when it wss our honor to nominate the present sheriff incumbent, we undertook to review briefly the records of his predecessors. We insisted that incredible lethargy obtained in the office and that law enforcement was in a state of blithesome slumber. We asserted that Mr. Harries and associates, in our opinion, could do certain constructive things in enforcing the law and in saving the county money. Whereupon the convention proceeded forthwith to throw ua out of the theatre and to accuse us of unpardonable indiscretion. The Times did not lose hope; but kept up the fight. We are naturally happy to observe the ample fashion in which Mr. Harries has qualified, fulfilling every prediction with about 600 per cent to spare. (Continued on page 7.)
