This matter, WEBER AND BOX ELDER IS FOR TOURNAMENT In all likelihood the Weber Normal hoopsters of Ogden and the Box Elder High school team from Brigham City will represent the Ogden division at the state tournament to be held in the Deseret gym in Salt Lake City March 1, 2, 3 and. 4. Weber is going strong this year and has lost but one game so far. Their hardest game will be at Brigham City tomorrow evening. Davis High plays their last league game of the season tomorrow evening with Ogden in the latter city. If Ogden defeats Davis and Box Elder defeats Weber, then Box Elder and Ogden, will be tied for second place. Thus another game will be necessary between these two teams to determine the runners up for, the tournament. There is to be 16 teams in the state tournament. Two teams each are to be sent in from the Salt Lake division, Ogden division and the Jordan division, with one team each from all other divisions. The tournament this year promises to be the usual brilliant affair that it has been in past years. There being nd school at Davis last Monday, the team assembled and put in a hard afternoon of practice in preparation for the game with Ogden tomorrow evening, which they are out to win. Doubtless a large number of students will accompany the team on To ' Glen Ellison died home here this morning after a Layton, Peb. 14 ng Lness of paralysis. dis-pl- thirty-on- e states. figutes from the tomato mato-creag- COMMERCIAL CLUB HOLDS SPLENDID MEETING A noteworthy gathering of Commercial club member met Tuesday eveperning at the chapel, twenty-sisons being present. This is one of the best ways for you to show that you are vitally interested in the affairs of the town in which you live and in its welfare and progress, by attending the monthly meetings of the Commercial club. Committee reports .were called for by President Jacobs after the reading of the minutes of the last meeting. II. I.. Gleason of the publicity committee reported his findings in regard to advertising Kaysville by some appropriate means. He outlined a system of special advertising on envelgpes and letterheads, which all might use to the immense advantage of our home town. A general discussion followed wherein the advertising of the entire county was talked of. J. G. M. Barnes was strongly in favor of a sort of pamphlet which might serve best in advertising Kaysville at the present time. Finally a motion was made and carried which added Jost and R. O. Layton to the committee with power to begin their work as they themselves saw fit. A nominating committee composed of J. R. Gailey, Mrs. A. G. Frank and Geo. W. Barnes was apopinted by President Jacobs. Their duty is to draw up a ballot, to be voted upon at tfie next meeting, at which time the annual election of officers will take place. The subject of plaste ring the town with billboards was then taken up. J. R. Guilcy made mention of the fact that a meeting had been held earlier In the day at Farmington, those present being composed of the mayors and town hoard piesidcnts, at which thin They are, maksubject was ing a determined effort to have all billboards removed beyond the various city and town limits.

But 28 fouls were railed which means the game was cleanly played, everything considered. Line-uand Summary. DAVIS Fd.G. Fr.T. Fl.G.T.P, p d. f-- el -- It feree, Warner, umpire, Tingler.

"The entire pack of all canned foods in Utah dropped 50 er cent in' 1921 under the year 1920. due, to a eon siVlerablc extent, to increased freight rates. My explanatu n of this is as follows; "On August 20, 1920, the freight rates advanced. At the close of the packing, season, October 15 of that year, we found we were unable to move but a small portion of 1920 pack. Consequently we were forced to carry into 1921 the major portion of the 1520 pack. If the rates had not been advanced we would have been able to dispose of a considerable portion of the 1920 pack in distant markets and not confined the sale to home territory, which could not consume the year's pack, all of which resulted in reduced acreage in 1921. pp Curtailment Predicted. "The pack in Utah for 1922 will be curtailed to a great extent several canning companies have gone into the hands of receivers, (some will not run at all, and those that do operate will not do so to capacity. "Our products are all contracted for from the growers in the early spring. The amount of acreage contracted by us is influenced to a, great extent by the prospects of disposing of same. If we were assured at this time that a reduction In freight rates would be made, which would apply to this years pack, we would increase our acreage of canning crops. "But if tbe present basis of high freight rates is to be maintained, we can see nothing but loss if we pack to exceed 50 per cent of normal. Not to exceed 35 per cent of our normal pack can be marketed in Utah and adjoining states; consequently, 65 per cent of our products must find markets in more distant states.

RATES ARE RUINOUS Washington, Feb. 15. Prevailing high freight rates are ruining the canning industry of Utah, have already closed some canneries, threaten to close others, and will greatly reduce the output of those that will continue operations, according to testimony before the interstate commerce commission today by II. L. Herrington, president of the Utah Canning company of Ogden. Mr. Harrington was placed on the stand by H. W. Priekett, after the latter had laid before the commission a convincing tabulation showing how rates on canned good have advanced since 1918. Mr. Prickctt's figures gave data on shipments to all the important markets to which Utah canned goods move. His tabulation showed an average annual shipment of 694 cars of fanned goods out of Utah, on which the average haul was 883 miles. The total weight of this annual shipment was 40,188,927 pounds. On the basis of rates in effect up to June 24, 1918, the freight charges on these shipments amounted to $204,0i9, but advanced to $254,852 under the advance of August 25, 1920, ami mi the basis of present rates The average amount to $327,109. revenue for each car on these ship- Actual Ellison was the son of the late. thjiah Elison and Mr. Harriet E.
