Dear Editor: It give me great pleanure in writing to you at this time. I sincerely appreciate the interest and good will that you extend to missionaries mis-sionaries in sending them the Lehi Bun. It Is a great source of Joy and strength to hear from home and tn know that you have' our interests at heart. With the coming com-ing of each week the desire for the Sun also comes, and I am always anxious to get it and to read what Lehi is doing. It generally carries the news of the marriages which take place, and a missionary often wonders if there will be any young single people left when he returns. Sixteen months have now passed since I bid the dear people of Lehi goodbye. The time flys on wings of lightning for it seems, but yesterday yes-terday since leaving. Elder John F. Jardin and I were Mlgned to the east Michigan district. dis-trict. Before leaving- Chicago, we had the privilege of groing through the world's largest department store, Marshall Fields, which covers thirteen square acres. We had lunch on the thirteen floor. After lunch we went down town and at- bed eleven years, suffering from arthritis. She asked some Ques tions and I did my best to answer them and I must of did it to her approval for my companion and I were invited back to dinner the next evening. We were able to hold class with them and her friends came and wanted classes held at their homes so we were able to hold a class every night. It was certain iy a testimony to me that God hears and answers prayers. At conference time I was transferred but mission arles were placed back in Pontiac and today they have a thriving branch there. About three families joined the church in six months time and it Is growing all of the time. I was next transeferred to the home of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, which is one of the most beautiful towns in the state. It is located in a low spot with small rolling hills surrounding it and I felt more at home there than any where I have been. My companion com-panion and I were sent there for country work. We worked in Lenawee county, located ' in the southeast corner of the state. We planned to travel entirely without purse or script and we were very successful in so doing. We had many wonderful experiences that would not of had if we had money with us. During the summer we tended the Chicago Theatre, which tracted fifteen towns three times is one of the best in this part of the ftn(, he,d & meeM , country. We also met the ration- each town We maJe somft aries from home who were going frlend8 and arft welcome any tIme across me water, ana we nu wft Mf) back ,n communities, visit with them before leaving for rpne graduation exercises of U. of M.

ThplA ftro In Ann Arhrtt" n f w from the west nice to us Decreasing R It Crossing Accidents ' Fatalities due to highway grade crossing accidents 'were the lowest in 1930 for any year since 1922, according to complete com-plete reports for the year just filed ly the railroads with the Interstate Commerce Commission and made public today. Complete reports for 1930 show that 2,020 persons lost their lives in grade crossing accidents, which was a reduction of 4C5 or nearly 19 per cent compared with the numberQ fatalities in 1929. Persons injured in such accidents in 19J0 totaled 5,517, a reduction of 1,287 compared with the preceding year. In 1930, there were 4,853 accidents at highway grade crossings, compared with 5,975 in 1929. f This reduction of nearly 19 per cent is the number of fatalities resulting from highway grade crossing accidents m 1930 compared with 1929 took place in the face of an increase of approximately four per cent in all other fatalities on the highways of this country. . The railroads, in cooperation with various safety organizations organiza-tions have for years waged a vigorous campaign in an effort to impress upon the public the necessity for exercising the maximum amount of caution in approaching and passing over highway grade crossings and the marked reduction that has taken place in the number of accidents at such crossings is in part due to the increased cooperation of the public in this matter. . Elimination of all highway grade crossings is impossible owing to physical reason and prohibitive cost, but millions of dollars are being spent annually by the railroads for the removal re-moval of the most hazardous ones and for the purchase and installation of, automatic warning devices, gates, signs and signals at other highway grade crossings in an effort to safeguard safe-guard human life to the greatest extent possible at such points. The public should cooperate in this great work of life saving by practicing the Stop Look & Listen habit., SHOE ITEMS as does Salt Lake City. iudi 19 one oi ui mobile towns in Michigan.

I thought I had met some of the best people In the world and I had, but I later found that there were other good people In different cities I have privilege of laboring in. From Flint I was transferred to the city of Pontiac which is located between Flint and Detroit. It was while laboring In Pontiac that I realized how wonderful the use of prayer can be and we surely had our prayers answered while here. The missionaries had labored In rontiac for over a year and had made no progress. We had two families of saints and one family of friends. We held preaching service with saintg Sunday evening and did not have any Investigators attend at all. The District President told us that unless something happened bnr next conference, we would be taken out cf the city. We decided that something was going to happen and we made up our minds that by the time conference came we would have a cottage meeting every night In the week. We earnestly prayed to our Heavenly Father that, he would lead us to the doors of the honest In heart and to those .who were searching truth". Our prayer wasn't answered. untU two weeks before conference.

TREATING POTATOES, The potato grower should take into consideration, this .yearj. the fact that the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Outlook, gives indications indi-cations that people are 3 planting more potatoes, probably to the extent ex-tent of an Increase of 10 percent. Farmers should be careful, therefore, there-fore, that when they plant potatoes they should cut the cost of production produc-tion by only using the best seed, even though It costs more and they should treat the seed before planting. plant-ing. - ' . : A deverslf ication of crops is a fine thing for the grower of Utah county so he has . something'1 of several different kinds of-crops and a few potatoes on the right type of soil with good seed will probably be alright, if farmers don't plant too large an acreage.. However, they should take the U. S. D. A. in-r formation into account In treating potatoes there are two methods usually used, that of the Hot Formaldehyde and the Corrosive Corro-sive Sublimate. The Hot Formaldehyde Formalde-hyde is only feasable when very large patches are treated and the work is under the direction of a specialist. For the average grower the Corrosive Sublimate should be used. This can be obtained at the drug store and should be used at the rate of 4 oz. to 30 gallons of water. . This must be used in a wooden barrel as the chemical eats the metal. The chemical should first be disolved with a little warm water. Corrosive sublimate solution solu-tion looses strength in treatment so to maintain solution to ' proper strength, oz. should be added for every five bushel treated and the volume of the water be kept up. After the solution has been used three times a new solution should be used. Equipment tot treating potatoes is best used by two barrels with a hole and plug at the bottom so as to drain off the liquid easily. Potatoes should be treated about 1 hours and . then quickly, dried. Potatoes should never be cut before treating. It is important to remember that treating , potatoes only controls the disease of octnla,12r One of our w f Mos'ac, which to almost noth, f aen't con V it can only PurchasW tfc. The irrlMH " U- A.
