Practically all the grading and graveling has been completed between the two points and the appraisers report satisfactorily. There is yet an uncompleted bridge and a portion of the road has yet to receive another coating of gravel, otherwise the road is in fine shape. While the official opening has not as yet been announced travelers to Fishlake and points along that part of the highway have been privileged to use the road, which affords ia great accommodation, as the detour holw is far away and necessitates miles of travel to reach points near Sigurd . The Salina Meat & Supply store, taken over some ten days ago by the Utah Credit Mens association, was taken over by John R. Ewles at a meeting of the association at Salt Lake City last Tuesday. Two Salina concerns were the only bidders, Messrs. Sorenson, Erickson and Pe-- . terson, competing with Mr. Ewles. The price paid has not been definite-- 1 ly stated but it is said that creditors receive about 40 cents on the j will dollar. Mr. Ewles is planning on making a number of improvements about the place and he has arranged to re-- , stock the store with a splendid sup-- , ply ofstandard' and fancy groceries. The meat department will receive attention and it will be the plan to make the store modern and date in every respect. AURORA-SIGUR- Prosperity Coming Nineteen twenty-siwill mark an era of prosperity in the Unted States and it will be the banner year for several years "past. Big industries are sensing the situation and are working factories and manufacturing plants to capacity and the result is largely felt in the eastern sections. T'hese were' some of the expressions of United States Senator Reed Smoot to a Sun reporter Wednesday. Senator Smoot, accompanied by his son, Harlow Smoot, Nick Robertson and Preston Nibley spent a few hours here Wednesday morning. The party was just returning from Cedar City where they attended the state convention of the American Legion. Senator Smoot' gave a number of talks at the convention held at Cedar City the first days of this week. The senior senator 'stated that the session of congress just closed had been one of the most strenuous in years. .The number of large problems, particularly the French debt question, had been a trying ordeal. It is regrettable that Sevier valley is in the throes of a crop failure. With the beet crop gone and the sugar factories on short runs, has its telling effect, said Senator Smoot. Congress has spent millions of dollars in experimentations in control of the white fly so disastrous to the beets, but as yet very little has been accomplished. Not only has our government tried to solve this problem, but Germany and other beet growing nations have tried various plans but without success to any degree. The work, however, will be continued and it is to be" hoped that some day success will crown their efforts. x D , Halt , up-to- AttractiDDS Far Coil; Parly Loots Over Syslei Judge Elias Hansen of the Fifth judicial district, judge by stipulation water controversy adjudication between the Piute Reservoir & Irrigation company and the Sevier River Bridge interests; Bryce McBride, water commissioner; Alex Melville and A. B. Irvine, attorneys for the Millard cohnty interests; John Jensen and Altol Rawlins, attorneys for the Piute interests; Judge Hi. N. Hayes, J. La Rue Ogden and E. A. Porter, comprised a party that visited Salina last Friday. The officials of the two contending companies, to- -' gether with Judge Hansen, was completing the tour of inspection of the entire system. The start was made in Millard county early last week and after that another start twas made at the head of the sources of supply. Beginning at Panguitch a complete survey was made of the waters all along the sources of supply and along the river. At Salina the party was joined by S. U. Jorgensen, president of the. Piute company, and after the local inspection the party went to the Gunnison Valley where the survey was completed. It was believed that, following the inspection trip, aome decision would soon be reached. it ia However, proving of such gigantic proportions that several months will be required to make an adjudication properly. The Sevier drainage area is the greatest in the state, A. B. Irvine is quoted as saying in a Salt Lake paper, and in many respects ia the most remarkable source of irrigating water in the United States. It is in is water the that used unique many times. There are a number of dams where all of the water is diverted, but a few miles below such a dam is another, built to hold the water which comes back by return flow and seepage and make it available again for irrigation. Owing to the drouth in the last two years, water conditions are the worst in history of Sevier river. The big Sevier Bridge dam, which furnishes water for Millard county, is practically empty. The Piute reservoir, a state project, and the Otter Creek reservoir on the east fork, have only small , amounts of water remaining. Because of timely rains and carethrough that section than at any time since the highway was estab- - fur conservation of water, the crop lished.

This is particularly true highway through the mountainous of the Sevier valley, where bumper country in the vicinity of Glenwood . crops will be harvested, excepting With this done, it will provide a sugar beets. The beets have been the year round, almost a total failure, due to the highway practically The travelers report the highway at presence of some kind of insect, all points in fine condition. Many farmers have plowed up the'r beets, not thinking it would pay to them. FIGURES IN TWO BATTLES; Different phases of the Sevier water problem have been presented . . Inspiii ! Fair tU -' - The Sevier County fair this year fair ever held in the county, according to C. W. Powell, secretary and general manager of the association. One of the best racing cards ever arranged is on the schedule and due to the. fact that every stall is taken, and with some of the fastest horses in the state, gives assurance that this feature will be one of the main ones. Daily training is featured and the sport loving population will be assured of real entertainment in the horse races . Mr. Powell was in Salinathe first of the week and stated that he had just returned from a trip through the southern counties where he had given the county fair wide publicity through attractive posters and other mediums of advertising. He was highly enthusiastic and predicted a record attendance. Applications for entry of livestock, poultry, farm products and articles for the art and domestic science departments indicate that these features will be larger than ever before. Salina, as usual, will be in line with an array of fine fruits, vegetables, stock, etc., and as has been the custom some blue ribbons and cash prizes are sure to be land- A town's success depends mainly upon the number of Successful people in it, and since material success is usually measured in terms of dollars and cents, this feature of local enterprise cannot will surpass any be overlooked. Probably many' are tired of hearing preached that saving is the surest road to financial independence, but from a community standpoint the wisdom of this advice cannot be urged too strongly. Unless the idea of properly investing time and money is accepted, progress will be curtailed. A bank account, systematically maintained, will prove to be a bridge over obstacles which now block the way to home ownership or the realisation of some other aim in life. We can live in comfort, spend wisely and save at the same time on a modest income. The important thing in saving is the regularity with which we lay aside a certain amount at stated intervals. Men and women who follow this practice are a decided asset to Salina. They are real boosters of the town and more should be encouraged to follow their example.
