Key to Succes by Forbes County Planning Report Challenges Utah County to Do Something About It An aftermath of the County Planning conference held last week is the challenge issued this week by the report of S. R. Boswell, county agricultural agent, under the title: Know Your County. The following statements are made in this report, which, according to Mr. Boswell are especially challenging In their nature: Of 4,200 farm families in the county, 3S0 are on the relief rolls and 1,836 must find additional Income other than from their farms. Of 6.100 non-fi-families in the county, 1226 are on the relief rolls. With such facts known, Mr. BoBwell Inquires into wher3 their money is being spent. This Is what he found: Only 44 4 farm families are without automobiles. Amount spent for movies s 161,750 in Utah county; amount spent for slot machines, 115.290; amount for liquor, $261, 4S5. 69 ; amount spent in the pool halls of the county, $17,250. Turning attention to another side of the picture, Mr. Boswell reports that only 50 per cent of all farms have adequate irrigation water supply in normal years, and only 25 per cent have an adequate supply In dry years. . He found that total mortgages in the county reached $5,488,900 and that 50 per cent of the land bank mortgages were delinquent January 1, 1938. At the same time he found that only 41 per cent of all farmers plant tested seed, and that 30,250 acres of weeds exist in the county, adding 100 per cent to the cost of cultivation. He also found 712 vacant poultry houses on farms, and only 876 farmers engaged In poultry raising. From another point of view, he reports that meats, fruits, vegetables, and bread are the chief foods purchased by farm families, and that butter, beans, fruit, and flour are all imported into Utah county, because we do not produce enough to satisfy local demands. He found 450 farm families and. 1296 non-farfamilies without a garden. Only 25 per cent of the meat supply used by farmers is produced on the farm. Only 1600 farm homes have water piped into bath rooms. The need of housing projects is indicated by the fact that Mr. Boswell reports 742 homes too small to bouse the families living in them; that 600 homes are housing two or more families; and that 554 young couples are needing hemes snd a means of livelihood. He finds that 1338 young men and 938 young women are without ade- .. .. V.T E..l ..1.. soft ...... -- .. left g.A.S O.VJ IVUiUiUK I,..,. 1 I... I. J ...... , t.MI, WILL V.. any trade or business. More than 300 people took part in the survey woik necessary to compile this information, reports Mr. Boswell, and the facts gathered are so pertinent and important that they contain a challenge to everybody to do something about it. m V- -.. .1 1 Three Centers Open Adult Study Courses Opportunity beckons at three centers this week in the expansion program of the Ault education classes sponsored by W.

Electrical and Plumbing Ordinances Under Study by Special Committees e. means Only two more ordinances are to be studied and discussed before the Orem town board can put finishing touches to the new Town Planning projects which have occupied the attention of the board for weeks, stated Mayor B. M. Jolley this week. First the electrical sections of the Building ordinance have to be completed, and a Bpecial Electrical committee was appointed Monday night to study various electrical ordinances In use elsewhere, and submit a report and recommendation to the Town board. This committee is headed by Kenneth McEwan, and assisted Ken'neth Cook, C. B. Holt, Ivan Farnworth, and Bert Fark. Their by recommendations will likely be accepted by the board, aa they are authorized to study the matter thoroughly, and submit a detailed report to guide the board in its action, explained the mayor. The second committee, named at the same meeting of the Town board, will study plumbing ordinances, and sewage disposal plans, and likewise make recommendations to the town authorities. It Is composed of Oral DeLange, chairman, A. V. Washburn. Leo Steele, Bill Shepherd, and Earl W. Meecham. It is anticipted that the reports from both committees will be available at an early date so the Orem town board can proceed with Its compilation of ordinances and complete its legal requirements for making the Town planning work effective, explained Mayor Jolley. Road Gravelling Project Starts Tuesday; Mass Meeting Monday will Complete Details Gravelling will start Tuesday or Wednesday if details can be worfced out satisfactorily in the Orem town road program, announces Julien Hansen, chairman of the Orem Town board road committee. The big objective, he explains, is to gravel all sections within the coming months, and plans are complete for trucks and other equipment to be used, the cooperation of all citizens alone being needed to insure success. The mass meeting set for Monday, Feb. 28 will, it is hoped, complete ail arrangements for the drive to go forward, several men and teams being needed yet for the work to start. Mr. Hansen explains that as soon as even a half mile of road is OREM PLEASANT BRIEFS VIEW Susan P.
