However, from name received its orobably Jean Victor Eugene Duchesre. .his mans fathers name Jean Duchesne, or that of his son, Jean Victor Duchesne, the data at ha id name favoring its being after the if the first Duchesne mentioned. A letter of the date of October 3, 1931, from Miss Stella M. Drum, of the Missouri Historical Society of St. Louis, gives the following concerning this family. We have the record of orly Jean Victor Euone Duchesne gene. He was the son cf Jean and Catherine (Girod) Duchesne, lie married at Cahokia, Illinois, Catherine Vautrin, daughter of Dominique and Margaret (Carabii) Vautrin, June 22, 1835. A son. named Jean Victor Duchesne, six weeks old, was baptized in our old Cathedral, June 16, 1839. The Duchesne family came from Canada. There is also a chance that the name was taken from that of a man spelled his name There were two different men by that name: Francois was in the employ- - of the American Fur Company from 1831 lo 1835, and Isadore Puchaine was in the employ of Pierre Choteau Jr. & Co., 1838-181Plowever, DuFremont spells the name chesne as we now- - spell it, the stream therefore appearing to have been named from surname of Jean Victor Eugene Duchesne, as given above. I remont, in writing There is probably nothing else that we can produce that will give such a vaiiety of palatable nutritious food as will the various kinds of small fruits and permanent vegetables that may be grown at home, says J, C. Hogenson, extension agronomist of the Utah extension service at Logan. It is important that these be grown in variety and in as large a quantity as the needs of the famStrawberries, ily may require. and goosecurrants raspberries, berries can be grown in practically every county in the state. To produce quality fruit they must, of course, be taken care of, pruned, weeded, cultivated, fertilized, irrigated and probably sprayed for best results. Asparagus and rhubarb, after the bed has been established, require little care or attention and yield abundantly of tasty, nutiit-tiou- s foods year after year. These should be grown at every home where a small space can be provided. For recommended varieties ol d seed, write to the Utah-adapte- at Logan. Extension Service HISTORYS RECORD APPROPRIATION With the signing of the new relief bill, approximating five billion dollars, by President Roosevelt Monrecord was made for lump-suday, a new e appropriations. Two things stand out in the announced plans for the administration of these relief funds: The detertransimination to speedily make the long oyer-du- e work-reliereand the to actual dole tion from the is cognition of the fact that all unemployment not of the laborer class. When these two objectives have been actually and effectively accomplished much of the battle will have been won. When every person who needs and wants a job can get one, and can, on pay day, receive pay with the feeling that it has been earned, while on the other hand those who are only seeking a hand-ou- t, with no intention of making any honest effort on their part to earn it are left to shift for themselves, we will at last be on the road to recovery. The speed with which we feel the effectiveness of the fund here in the Basin will depend entirely upon the speed and efficiency with which suitable projects are put into operation. MOON LAKE CELEBRATION NOW IN ORDER It has been unofficially stated that work on the Moon Lake reservoir will start before the end of this month. If this be true it is high time the citizens of celethe county began planning a g shovel-fulof dirt l bration, to be staged when the first is thrown. For twenty years Duchesne county has been pretty much asleep as far as attracting the attention of the rest of the state is concerned. At the recent meeting of the Printing Industry of Utah in Salt Lake the writer found that hardly a one of the various printers and newspaper men present from all over the state had even been in the Basin. When the question was asked why so few had ever been here, the answer invariably was: If what you say of the attractions of the Basin is true, why have we not heard about them? Maybe the Basin needs a little advertising. We agree. Not a little, but a lot of advertising, constantly telling the rest of the state about what we have to offer, is just what the Basin sorely needs, and a real Moon Lake celebration is a fine way to start. Lets get behind the plans 100 per cent and make a real celebration out of it one that will let the whole state know that we are still alive. COUNTY HOSPITAL IS AN IDEAL PROJECT Speaking of make work projects, it seems to us that about the finest undertaking that could be proposed would be the building of a county hospital. Duchesne City has already submitted a city hospital as one of its proposed projects, but a larger institution, suitable to take care of the entire county would be far more efficient, and far easier to put across. Many of the projects submitted will, if past history is a guide, provide work for the unemployed, but after completion will have little value for the future. A hospital would certainly be an exception to this rule. Some time ago we printed information in this column showing the amount of money being spent on needless trips to the state capitol for proper hospitalization. These figures, running into thousands of dollars in a single year, were based on the patients handled by one Duchesne doctor only. What would it amount to in the entire county? There are in the Basin several private hospitals which are serving a good purpose but are inadequate for other than minor operations, maternity work and emergency first aid. A good county hospital, completely equipped, with a house doctor and registered nurses always on hand, located in the county seat within 30 miles of practically every point in the county, would mean not only a great economical saving, but more important, would safeguard many lives now endangered by unnecessary transportation to outside points. Immediate forceful action should be taken. all-tim- m f, ground-breakin- OUTLOOK GOOD FOR WORK HORSES While the prices of work stock have been improving since 1930 in the face of a declining farm price level, the trends in use of motive power under better farm price conditions should govern the of commercial horse production, says Cruz Vcnstrom, economist of the Utah extension service. The number of colts raised in the United States in 1934 was estimated at 609,000 head compared to nearly 900,000 required to maintain the present numbers of work stock. Work stock numbers are still decreasing although colt numbers stopped declining in 1932 and showed a definite increase in 1933 and 1931, points out Mr. Venstrom. At the rate colt numbers are increasing in the past two years, work stock numbers would hold even about 1936. With better farm prices, higher feed prices, and a shortage of work stock replacements, there will be some tendency to expand the number of tractors and trucks. It seems that farmers will not be able to replace their work stock a few years hence at prices now' prevailing. Those who are producing or planning to produce work stock as an important source of income should follow the trends in colt production and in the use of mechanical power, in order to adjust their breeding to probable future demand. Farmers who have heap roughage may well breed heir young stock mares and n their replacements at a low 'ost, Mr. Venstrom says. e.

Although gaining- less attention than football or basketball, various minor sports, including swimming, wrestling, pistol shooting, polo, tennis and track, have been popl-la- r also at the University of Utah. The University of Utah swimming team brought the eighth consecutive western division championship to the state university this year, and the university wresthe western divitling team sion crown in that sport for the qecond consecutive time. The R. O. T. C. department sponsors the pistol shooting and the polo teams.
