Show OREM-GENEVA TIMES Utah County Has Available Six times More Electric Energy Than Utah county, which cradled the development of transmitting alternating current electricity at high voltagei prior to the turn of the century, today has avail able six times more electric energy than It normally uses, according to Olin IL Ririe, Southern division manager for the Utah Power and Light com pany. It was In 1897 that L. L Nunn and P. N. Nunn, having been impressed by the power potentialities of the Prove river, decided to continue their experiments and attempt to transmit electric energy to the minging town of Mercur, 43 mues distant. Energy in commercial quanti ties had never, at any place, been transmitted so far. It had never been transmitted at 40,' 000 volts, or, for that matter, at a fraction of that potential. and never before bad trans former been designed to convert 40,000 volts or other high po tential alternating current to a safely useable potential of 440- vplts. Thus, in 1898 this high volt age was successfully transmit ted from the Provo river to the Mercur mining properties. This venture served as a basis for similar activities every where and led to the enlarge ment of the system which in 1912 led to the formation of the Utah Power and Llgh Company. Mr.' Rlrie pointed out that six hydro-electric and one steam-electric generating stations sta-tions . located on ' mountain streams of this area have an installed in-stalled capacity of 40,990 kilowatts kilo-watts of generation. In addition, a 130,000-volt transmission line is capable of bringing 80,000 kilowatts more of power from the company's system 'to the north, into the Utah county area. Added to this are four other 44-000-volt transmission 'lines entering the area from the north which are capable of delivering another 60,000 kilowatts of power into the area. The total potential power supply for the area, then, amounts to over 150,000 kilowatts kilo-watts or more than six times as much power as Is normally usea xrom me comnanvs lines These transmission lines Which could be added at any time, fir backed by the total generating capacity of Utah Power ; large steam-electric station In Salt Lake City and the company's hydro-electric lystem which includes large generating stations on the Bear River- In addition there Is more capacity available from inter change with Idaho and Montana private power systems.

This 'N That By Ethel N. Hair "To strike or not to strike". Hi, Folks: It happened, and there was enough excitement to last a year at the U. P. Cafe in Salt Lake, Thursday, May 23- People Peo-ple were looking at headline? over shoulders and exclaiming "W.A.A. okehs Geneva sale to U.S. Steel" and "Rail Paralysis Grip Nation as Truce Fails." The dining room was crowded with hungry, cold, tired, confused con-fused travelers. "I didn't think it could happen," quoted a Hollywood Hol-lywood celebrity, "but we took a chance" he added. Cameras flashed, waitresses stood at attention at-tention with pad and pencil to take orders. Eight hundred people were stranded in Salt Lake City, and as a gay sailor said. "Salt Lake and pretty girls, what a break, hope the strike lasts a month." He planned on seeing the Mormon Mor-mon temple, the Capitol, and other sights of interest. He said-"the said-"the dinner was the best meal he had had since he came back to the states." I asked him what he thought of the "strike" Labor and capitol will have to come to an understanding, he commented. I heard him say to his buddy. "When America sticks to Democracy, instead of trying phases of other governments, govern-ments, when supply and demand and free enterprise is practiced as it should in a "FREE" land, when black markets are put out of control, our government will be back on a solid democratic demo-cratic footing."

These are some of the reasons why hog cholera today remains the No. 1 swine killer in America, causing losses of $20,000,000 to $60,000,000 per year. These losses could be prevented if all farmers had their pigs vaccinated against cholera around weaning time. But, unfortunately, there are always some swine raisers who are inclined to "take a chance," and it is these unprotected herds which are the first victims of cholera every year, and which remain in the community commun-ity as centers of infection and sources of cholera danger to othet droves of swine. The common symptoms of hog cholera include a tendency on the p t of the sick animals to remain in the house, to burrow under bedding, bed-ding, to pile up, weakness di partial paralysis, and persistenl scours. Often one o- two hogs will die, and then it will be several days before the remainder of the heri will begin to show symptoms.
