The Agricultural experts of the Utah Experiment Station and Extension Ex-tension Service Join with Mr. Jones In sending out this word of warning. warn-ing. The results of several years of analysis by members of the Experiment Ex-periment Station staff show that Utah soils contain an average of one million pounds lime In the upper up-per foot of soO on each acre, which Is an excessive amount Lime offered for fertilizer through these salesmen Is further discouraged discour-aged because of the cost which Is about 20 times more than the market mark-et price.

The average population per occupied occu-pied dwelling unit In the United States in 1940 was S J, which figure may be compared with 4.1, the average av-erage population per private family In 1930. - The historical decline In the average population per family is . Indicated by the averages for earlier censuses, which were as follows: 4.3 In 1930, 4.5 in 1910, 4.7 in 1900, and 4.9 In 1890. The average popula tion per family, which had been de creasing at the rate of two-tenths New York Fifty per cent of Utah's commercial banks made more than 36,000 loans totaling $48,000,000 to business firms and individuals throughout the state during the first six months Of 1940, according to the semi-annual survey of bank lending activity made by the American Bankers Association. The A. B. A. loan survey was par ticipated in by 29 Utah banks, or 50.9 per cent of the 57 commercial banks in the state. These 29 banks reported that they made between January 1 and June 30, 1940: 24,890 new loans totaling $22,096,075 9,586 renewals of loans totaling 21,194.507 1,544 new mortgage loans totaling 6.277,608 36,020 $48,558,190 The survey showed that business firms In the state used only 55 per cent of the "confirmed open lines of credit" maintained for their use on the books of banks. Seven banks In the larger centers of the state reported re-ported that they carried on their books $7,217,200 In "open lines of credit" offered to and kept available for regular borrowers for use as needed by them. Of this amount $3,988,031 or 65.3 per cent was used. The average number of new loans made per bank during the six months period under review was 858 and the average size of loan was $888. The average number of loans renewed re-newed per bank was 331 and the average renewal was for $2,210. The average number of new mortage loans made per bank: was 53 and the average new mortgage made was for $3,418. The Utah survey was part of a national survey of bank lending activity ac-tivity made by the American Bankers Bank-ers Association. of a person per decade since 1890, as Indicated by these figures, decreased de-creased three-tenths of a person, or half as much again, between 1930 and 1940; or, making the comparison directly with 1890, the average population pop-ulation per family In 1940 is less by 1.1 persons than It was fifty years ago. The decline in the average size of the family in the United States is due primarily to Increased urbanisation urbani-sation and the decline In the birth rate. Utah, with an average family of 4.4 persons In 1930, likewise showed a trend toward smaller families, the average being 3.9 persons according to the 1940 census.
