A meeting of the farmers of Pay-son- , Lake Salem, Benjamin, Spring and adjacent territory has been callafternoon at 2 ed for tomorrow oclock in the office of the Strawberry High Line Canal company, to meet with W. J. Sawyer, representing tho James Turnbull company, for the purpose of discussing the proposition of growing small vegetables on an extensive scale. Mr, Sawyer has made tne proposition to handle at least fifty carloads of garden truck, not including onions and potatoes. Mr. Sawyer declares that his house has a ready market for head lettus and cauliflower, and can handle from ten to twenty cars of the latter from Payson as a center for transportation. The proposition is one of the most important that has been presented to the farmers of Payson for many years, according to one of the prominent growers, and is one which should have the serious attention oo fanners and truck gardners. If the farmers can be induced to produce head lettuce, cauliflower and other small vegetables in large quantity, to satisfy a demand which Mr. Sawyer says exists, a revenue of many thousands of dollars a year will be brought into Utah county, and it will develop into an ever growing business. Mr, Sawyer does not wish to fix any stated price on vegetables, but it is believed that he will assure the highest prevailing market price. It Is not his idea to tie the producers up to any binding contract. Officers of Utah State Farm Bureau and Representatives of Sugar Companies Hold Numerous Conferences.

In the contract offered by the farm bureau there was no provision for a minimum guarantee. To show the difference in the two contracts, the following comparison is made: With sugar selling at $4 per bag, the farmer would receive $5 per ton for beets with sngar content between 14 and 17.5 per cent, under the company contract; with sngar at $5 per beg, 15 per cent beets and under would get the farmer $5 per ton for beets; at 16 per cent, ,o.37 per ton; at 17 per cent, $5.78 per ton. h I Sugar selling at $6 per bag would yield the farmer $5.98 for 15 percent boets; $6.98 for 16 per cent beets, and $7.52 for 17 per cent beets. Under the contract sought by the farm bureau, $4 sngar would net $3.95 for 14 per cent beets; $4.25 for 15 per cent beets; $4.60 for 16 per cent boets, and $4.95 for 17 per cent beets. Sugar at $5 per bag would bring $5.32 for 15 per cent beets; $5.75 for 16 per cent beets, and $6.18 for 17 per cent beets. ' At $6 for sugar the farmer would be paid $6.38 for 15 per cent beets; $6.90 for 16 per cent beets, and $7.42 for 17 per cent beets. Further conferences on the matter are possible, no move had been made in such direction. It is possible that the companies may proceed to offer their proposed contracts to the farmers without further delay. J. E. BROADDU8 BILLED .. FOR WONDERLAND LECTURES DR.

Will Be Deter- Tw0 . - FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS ARE MADE FOR STATE FAIR Any idea of omitting to hold the Utah state fair this year was definitely thrown into discard last Monday, when the state board of examiners authorized the directors of the State Fair association to make the necessary financial arrangements for the exposition. This was done with the distinct understanding that the state fair boaTd should koep the expenses of the fait absolutely within the budget it submitted to the examiners two weeks ago. 1his provides for ,an expenditure .slightly - ,r under $25,000. . , The fair directors are authorized to negotiate loans, on the credit of the state, for so much of that amount as they may from time to time re quire. Tho fair board was also authorised to go ahead with an agreement with the adjutant general and the Utnh national guard under which buildings of a permanent typo will bo consomewhat structed to replace the nondescript shacks used for overflow accommodations for livestock which were destroyed by fuo last fall. The guard will utilize a supply of lumber available from the abandoned ran tonment at Fort Douglass in install ing the fixtures in tho stables, and also such other equipment as may come to it from the war surplus. The work of tearing down tho buildings at the post and removing the lumber to the fair grounds will proceed at Having drunk 'the contents of a cup eontaining a solution of lye, which she found on the window sill at the old 'ome of her aunt, the three-yeadaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Davis Hoe in a critical condition at the home of her parents in Salem. Medical aid was hurredly summoned from Payson and hope for ultimate recovery is entertained, although it is feared that the month and neck of the little one are so badly burned by the strong solution that she may be ngure4. Washing had been in progress during the morning and the cup. containing the lye had inadvertantly been left on the window. The child coming in had found it and thinking it to be water, drank it Owing to the inclemency of the weather arid the unfavorable light of the past few weeks, it has been impossible for the Paysonian Photographer! whose studio is in Provo, to properly care for those who sought pictures under the subscription contract with the Paysonian. As soon as the weather clears, however, Mr. McDaniels will make a stay in Payson, with studio at the Hurst confectionery, and will remain until all pictures have been taken. Those holding contracts which have not been fulfilled, will have the time extended until all have been complied with. Whilo definite agreement between the fair board and the Palf Lake city commission has not been drawn up, it is now so certain that a new fire station for the city will be built on the northeast corner of the fair grounds that the cily is already hauling brick from tho - Lafayette school building, being demolished, to the fair grounds for use in construction of the new fire station. The city has mado a proposition that the corner be deeded to the city. The fair board replied with a proposition that the entire fair grounds be converted into a city park, to bo used eleven months each year. Selections Before Balt mm fintlumrm.

The Spanish ject was discussed with the road commission last Wednesday and arrangements mado for advertising for bids as soon as somo engineering details are cleared up. The state road commission is advised that Juub county will make the money for the big paving project from Nephi to the Utah county line available at once, although in doing so the Juab county commissioners contended that the county would lose about $7500 as a bonus, which they could have retained had the money been left in the Nephi bank, where it is now, until May 15. However, the state has adopted a rule that the counties must make the finances availble before a contract will be signed, having learned by past expeience that tnis is the only safe policy. It is believed that the county will be able to collect a pro rata share of the bonus in question. Moreover, it is pointed out that the bank, on furnishing a satisfactory bond to the state treasurer, W. D. the deposit, Sutton, may retain though the interest at 3 per cent, will then be collected by the state general fund. ' SMALL VEGETABLES Tommorrow Afternoon are UTAH, MARCH 10, 1922.
