Play Ground Equipment and Tennis Court To Be Placed on City Property DEFECTIVE VISION NO MORE BliND STREETS FOR MIDVAlE OTHER CITY BUSINESS The need of street lights on Second Avenue east of Locust street was considered at the council meeting July 20, and referred to proper committee for action. Gravel was ordered placed on .the street paving where necessary. According to advice of County Auditor assessed valuation of property in Midvale has increased $565,328 over the valuation in 1925, and at this rate a material reduction in the city tax rate may be expected. Farm Women Gather For C~nference A unique conference was held at Chicago recently when a number of women from farm homes gathered to discuss their problems, needs, and aspirations. The discussions centered about the topic ""'hat do farm women want?'~ Naturally it developed that they want practically the same things that women in urban communities want. The chief question at issue is how to get them. As the chairman of the conference said on opening the conference, ""'e haven't any right to sit here and say, ''V.ell, of course there are all kinds of things that we want, but we can't get them, so what is the use?' It is the business :Of farm women to get advantages for farm people, for the farm children of the United States." Allparently the most interesting of the discussioons was that concerned with educatioil and the farm home. When the committee formed for the purpose analyzed the list of "wants" in its rela.tion to education, they found 3. Midvale used Kendell Vincent be- the items could be classified under hlnd the bat.

This would do away with all the blind avenues running east from Main to the railroad tracks. , This is a much needed improvement and should be heartily indersed ~Y all citizens. • The matter was turned over ,to the street committee of which Dr. Quick is chairman and immediate action is expected. !

OPINION OF IT Mystery Burglars Operate in Midvale Utah Ranks Fourth In Sugar Beet Acreage NEW YORK, July 22-Some 755,000 acres of American land are occupied this year in growing sugar beets that will provide close to 2,000,000,000 pounds as a partial satisfaction of the national sweet tooth during the coming twelYe months, reports the national sugar trade journal, l!'acts About Sugar. This is enough to supply all the sugar required by the western half of the United States where most of the sugar beet crop is grown. Colorado leads all the states of the Union in the production of beet sugar and probably will turn out close to 700,000,000 pounds during the coming season. Beet sugar, in fact, is the most important of all Colorado's crops ; and it also is an important contributor to the agricultural wealth of other western states including Utah, Idaho, California, ~fontana, 'Vyoming, Nebraska and Kansas and of Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio and Indiana further east. The acreage planted to sugar beets in the various states this year is as followe : Acres State 221,668 Colorado 120,445 Michigan 80,76~ Nebraska 69,889 Utah 45,987 California 36,951 Ohio 33,644 Montana 30,846 Id'aho 22,700 Wisconsin 19,799 Iowa 34,179 Other States• STATE STEET PAVING NEARS COMPLETIO ------------------------------------------· ' At the meeting of the city council held Thursday evening, final decision was. made on the matter of supplying a long felt need of the city for some place where children and young people would be afforded means o~ amusement. The following apparatus was ordered purchased: A double •coaster ·slide, giant stride, a set 01 six swings, one sand box, and <l!Ile teeter. AU of this equipment will be placet! in the south west corner of ihe city lot. After the ground has been properly graded and gravelled a tenms court will be constructed directly east along the property line. There will be ample room for these improvements according to plans and measureme~ts presented at the meeting by Messrs. Hyke and Olson of the vivlc • club. lt is expected that this will all be set up and re}ldy for service within three week's time. 5c Per Week Pioneer Day Will he Celebrated at West Jordan, Sandy, South Jordan and Riverton•.

For about a week ·()wners of property have reported things left around their homes have been damaged, or wrecked to such an extent that they have been required to throw them away. The peculiar way of these happenings is that the one who does the damage, does not steal but wrecks the tools and implements left outside ·o f the house, also the person does this when the owners of property are not at pome. 1 Owners who have been visited more than once, are peeved at the expense left behin<l by the unknown visitor, it has also caused them to give a reward, to the person who sees ®y strange character hanging around their homes, to notify the police immediately. r.t has been reported that things of this origin have happened at .S:mdy, although no definite check up has been made.
