JEW BUNKER FARM FEED PLANT OPENS Increasing business more than six fold has Justified the expansion of the Bunker Farm Feed plant to a 7000 feet floor space, as compared to its previous 2000 feet area, the big plant opening for business with a new feed mixer which can take care of a carload of feeds in a singlarfsy. When the remaining machinery is ready the plant will be the feed plant in the most country, according to " reports from the builders. Its facilities for loading trucks and cars right out from the main paved highway offer an added service to their many patrons. Strictly cash business has made it possible to give the service, and the savings to their customers, states Mr. Bunker, who estimates thousands of dollars savings on freight and other charges have been turned over to stock dealers and poultrymen who buy from him, because they save a double freight, shipping their products out and then buying them back again. Mr. Bunker also states the Voice of Sharon has been the very best medium of advertising in the t country for him. Every Utah residential and farm customer of Utah Power and Light company will be able to purchase 41 per cent more service in tbe Spring of 1938, than in 1934, due to the new electric service rates soon to become effective, according to R. H. assistant to the commercial manager of the company. In a statement made In Provo this week. Mr. Ashworth has been here attending a meeting of the U. P. & L. company employes at which he explained the new rate schedules ordered recently by the state public service 'Commission. Based upon the new residential and farm rate effective April 1, the average cost per kilowatt hour delivered to all these consumers will be 3.48 cents as compared with a present national average of 4.43 cents per kilowatt hour, a difference of 21 per cent in favor of the Utah consumer, he said. Rural Ratos Same as City Mr. Aswhorth explained that under the new domestic schedule approximately 80,000 Utah residential and farm customers of the Company will be billed on the same rate. Irrespective of whether they reside in a large city or in rural territory and regardless of what use they make of electric service. Heretofore, city dwellers received service at slightly lower cost, and consumers with ranges and refrigerators were billed on different schedules than straight lighting customers. "The substantial cuts In commercial lighting rates July 1 vui make it possible for merchants to add greatly to their store lighting without additional monthly he explained. cost, This new commercial schedule reduces tbe top rate, after the 90 cents minimum charge, to 5 centes per kilowatt hour, whereas the present rate in Salt Lake, Ogden, and Provo is 6 cents and outside the cities 7 cents per kilowatt hour. He cites other benents to the consumer, including a 20 per rent reduction for small power users, an optional schedule required for the large power users with the demand charge based on a fifteen minute peak, and a reduction from 10 to 5 per cent In the deferred payment charge added to delinquent residential and commercial bills. Mr. Ashworth said the drastic reductions will work hardships kn the Company, which can be overcome only through more extensive use of electric service as a result ! of the reductions.

In urging every loyal citizen ta back the scout campaign for funds, Mr. Taylor stressed that character building activities of scouting far exceed In value any financial sacrifices entailed in subserbing the quota allotment. The average cost per boy for scouting is only $3 a year in the Utah National Barks council which is the lowest average costs in the United States, declares Mr. Taylor. Compared with the cost of $150 for putting a single child through the Juvenile court, or $500 a year for each boy In the Utah Industrial school. What parent or citizen would not prefer to help scouting and save the difference, to say nothing of the added value to the future manhood of the nation? Put it another way, says Mr. Taylor: "Which is better and cheaper? To pay $500 for the maintenance of one boy for a year in Utah Industrial school or to provide for tbe annual cost of 166 scouts in the Utah National Parka council? But you are asked merely to invest a small sum which will pay large dividends In social, economic, and spiritual welfare of your own community, concluded Mr. Taylor, as he urges every citizen to respond to the call for funds when the workers visit your home.

Tue public hcallii nurse followed with a few comments and sug- gestions about the "commit which are here set down: Fifty per cent of all Illnesses which take pupils out of school are the result of the common cold and Its complcatioris. What can be done about It if There is no proven means of Forcible Isolation is out of the question because of the large numbtr of cases, and the relatively low severity. The common cold responds to rest, and to the observation of simple rules of hygiene. Two or three days spent in bed will end even the most severe forms. In the event of unusual symptoms a physician should be called. Two things should always be observed to combat a cold: First, rest, to reduce the period of illness to a minimum and to avoid complications: Second, prevent the virus from being scattered among your associates. non-prof- it - n, Championship For First Half Goes To Timpanojjos Antl P.
