No. 7 Sugar House, Utah Thursday February 13, 1958 Price 10 Cents First Anniversary Marlis Year Of Buildinq For Stake The Valley View Stake was organized a year ago with the division of the East Millcreek and Wilford Stakes and is composed of six wards "and two chapels" which means that each chapel provides the meeting place for three wards. 'With the organization meeting a year ago Lamont B. Gundersen, was sustained as president of the Valley View Stakev ... , President Gundersen had served 11 years as president of the East Millcreek Stake and prior to that had served as a bishop for five years. He looks with satisfaction and pride at th3 accomplish-ments of the new stake during it's first year and with the-realizatio-n it has meant 100 cooperation from, it'a members to rench these remarkable achievements. , . As he put it ' we started from scratch"! The stake, now owns , a 200 acre stake welfare farm at Sar-atoga which is, managed by Nor-man McKee and his family. During the past year a modern home was built on the farm along with sheds, corrals and the development of a culinary water system, piped to the house. The water near Saratoga is warm, and the stake members went of a mile away to dig a well, pipe the water and pump it to" the new home with the result of wonderful clear cold wrater. ;The home of cinder block con- - . struction, three bedrooms, one and a half baths and an at-tached garage was built with much ' donated materials and all donated labor from the stake members'. ' The farm situated . on the banks of the Jordan River feeds beef cattle. A natural pasture land from the Jordan River banks' lends to easily raising of beef cattle. Approximately 100' acres of the Saratoga farm is cultivated and barley oats and hay are raised for the Welfare Program : with an excess left for the feeding of the cattle. Mr. McKee handles the plow-ing planting- - and in the fan the members of the stake turn out in droves to harvest and each member spends hours gath- -. ering in the fall, crops. Many times the members of the Relief Society furnish a. lunch or some type of refreshments during the harvest days. ' ' The building of a stake farm has not been the , lone project for this new, stake for within this . same time the group has built stake offices In, the Valley View First Ward and new class-rooms. Along with church build-ingVchapel for the Valley View Second and Third Wards will be completed in July. These gigan-tic programs at gigantic costs have been going on simultane-ously, and successfully. i ,r':' 71 1 r , 'lis" - " f t v w J ' r f- ' ' S I'' ' - ' I I' v v ' ?vv'rt , , ; - tf ' -: ; 4 , : i ' ' yf i !
