Elgin Gardner of the Nephi War Price and Rationing board anounced to- Ciue oy iiis Defeat Knights. The Juab Stake MIA and Nephi City combine their efforts to show their respect and apperciat-io- n to ten boys from East Juab county who will leave in the near future to enter the service of our country and who are on furlough. The dance Is free to the public. We urge you to bring your friends and come out to show your loyalty and bid good luck to thee men. Commercial and retail slaughterers must register between April 30 and May 14. Farm slaughterers must register and obtain a permit from their local board by July 1. However, a farm slaughterer may not sell or transfer meat after May 14 unless he has registered and received a permit. The new regulation, according to the chairman, is part of the plan, recently announced by William H. Davis, economic stabilization director to channel more meat into non producing areas. Quota of farm slaughterers will be limited to the amount of meat sold or transfered during 1944 as shown by their sales and collection of red points for surrender to their local rationing boards. Mr. Davis emphasizes that the new program will not affect retail meat ceilings. Adjustment of subsidies paid to the livestock and packing industry will be made to maintain the slaughter of beef cattle on a seamasis and minimize profitable sonal losses, Director Davis said. A study of problems facing pork production is being completed to determine whether in increases or maximum subsidy payments r.rices are necesary. Any needed relief to the industry will be made retioaetive to April 1, 1945. Bulls Show Large Sain Past Year Juab County livestock men are livecooperating in a county-wid- e stock improvement program. Varthis . improvement ious, phasej-yo.Cprogram are being undertaken this year, but the project phase to be reported in this article is the improvement of purebred range cattle herd sires. In the cooerative purebred range bull grading program in the Nephi area, in 1944, 59 bulls were graded, 52 per cent of the range bulls grading B- - or above, while 48 per cent of the bulls graded C or lower. Of this last percentage, 22 per cent of the bulls graded D. In 1945 the comparison of the same area showed a marked improvement with 85 per cent of the range bulls grading B- - or above, while 15 per cent graded C plus or lower. Only one bull graded there were no D bulls found. One hundred forty purebred range bulls have been graded in the 1945 livestock improvement program in Juab County. This is not all the range bulls in the county, but represents a large majority of them. The percentage of bulls in Juab County that graded B-above for 1945, was 68 per cent. Of the 32 per cent that graded C plus or below, 7 per cent graded C- - and D, Credit for the improving of the purebred range bulls In Juab county must be given to the five cattlemen's Associations through their members and officers.

Our most important consideration is the reduction of deaths by postponment of cases under five years, and among those in delicate health trouhgh proper tygenic precautions, temporary immunization and by roper medical nursing care among those in this group who contact this disease. The above pararaph was taken from reports of the Utah State Board of Health. It apears that too many of our citizens are not of in the reporting cooerating communicable diseases and if this continues, we in Nephi City will have an epidemic and this will im pair the health and the education of our children. We as American citizens must become more serious about this matter. The City Ordinance, Sec. 182 stateh that any person in Nephi city shall report any and all communicable diseases not later than five hours after he or she has such knowledge of the disease. Report to the city hall in person or by telephoning 113. Your cooperation In this matter is desired and will be greatly appreciated. JOHN L. KENDALL Health Officer.

Getting down to bedrock fundamentals and forettin? for a mo ment all of the worthwhile services that come with membership, joining the Farm Bureau is simply a matter or proving"yJur willingness to fiht for your own backyard. And it's a mihty sorry dog that won't fight for its own backyard. In recent months, I have talked to farmers from all regions of the country, and I don't mean just Farm Bureau members. I am in constant contact with members of the Grange and the National council of Farmer Cooperatives, organizations that work closely with us, and I find everywhere among farmers an almost universal conviction that farmers have no right to expect to have any influence in determining national policies unless they organize for that specific purpose. All will agree that the farmer in the past paid the penalty for a total lack of any definite national policy for agriculture. He knows from bitter experience that if he does not aggresively plead his case at the bar of public opinion and also before Congress there is little chance that fair consideration will be given to farm issues. Carl A farmer in Minnesota said recRoeder of Stewartville to ently: "The farmer will havelocal be heard not only in his community but nationally and internationally or this nation will be back where we were in the depression years." Speaking for more than 800,000 farm families in the Farm Bureau, I want to say that agriculture is It's not going backward. to o forward to still greater achievement A year from now we will undoubtedly have a million farm families in our organization, and my faith in farm people is such that l say no joo is impjssiuie for a million farm families. I started in Farm Bureau work ago, nearly a quarter of a century were when conditions on the farm that I don't like to something think about now. During the early years of our crusade under the banner of "Equality for Agriculture" our progress was disappointingly slow. We had to overcome the handicap of enerations of inFarmers had never been ertia. heard in the national councils because there we no means for the farmers to speak as with one voice.
