Show Thursday, September 8, 1927 THE LEin SUN, LEIiT, UTAn PAGE THREE A Letter From Miss Pearl Southwick j The following is a letter we received re-ceived from Miss Pearl Southwick who is laboring in the North Eastern States 'Mission: Albamy, N. Y., August 23, 1927. Editor of Lehi Sun, Lehi, Utah. Pear Sir: Tuesday again and I have Just enjoyed en-joyed reading the Sun after a mornings morn-ings trading. Even though my places of abode have been varied, I am glad you have succeeded in following me with the home town, paper. At this tduie I wish to express my sincere appreciation and- thank you for your kindness shown in sending it; for it is indeed a welcome weekly visitor. As Proverbs 25:25 states "As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country." The Sun surely does furnish me good news from a place far away and yet bo near, for it is very near while reading the items concerning dear old Lehi, folks and friends. For eleven and a half months I labored in Massachusetts and Rhode Island among the aristocratic New Englanders, who boast of their ancestors and culture. Even though Botson is the center of culture I can't help but compare their culture with that of the Latterday Saints. In my estimation the people called "Mor mons," who are slandered and ridiculed ridi-culed severely by these people rank higher in culture and learning than any other class of people in the world. I Not because we are merely Mormons, Mor-mons, nor because we are followers of Joseph Smith, the prophet who is called an imposter; a dreamer, but be cause we Mormons have accepted the principles of Christ's Gospel and re ceived the gift of the Holy Ghost, which is a constant guide to us and gives spiritual illumination which cannot be gained wthout it. While Albamy seems just a little ; strange to me, yet, I am greatly in terested in the work here. The field 'fis'full of opportunities to preach the '. Gospel wherever we go. In the 6 weeks ' I have been here my companion and , I have had some marvelous manifes- ' tations of the spirit of the Lord while tracting. It is a wonderful privilege to he able to bear witness to the truthfulness of the message we bear . and this alone seems to carry more weight with the people here than all the explaining of the Gospel we can do. When Buick improves im-proves upon Buick -the standard for the 'year is set Buick for 1928 introduces a higher standard of beauty arid luxury than the world has ever known'. Buick interiors' are as modish as exquisite drawing-rooms ' as harmoniously colored and as comfortable, Buick's new Fisher bodies are low-swung without any loss of head-room or road-clearance. And so, down to the smallest small-est detail of construction, wherever refinements could be made, Buick has made them. Again Buick has improved upon Buick. Again the standard for the year is set.

Provo, Utah BUICK 1 WOToit CH A short time ago while tracting one morning, we met a relative of Brig-ham Brig-ham Young, held a good conversation with her and made an appointment to call again; so we spent a very Interesting In-teresting evening in her home last week, looking at some of the old silverware of the Young family and incidentally preached the Gospel to her. When we left she said, "Come any time you can for it seems you girls just belong to me." 'Christ called His diciples to be fishers of men but we today are in very deed hunters, hunting here and there for some one with the blood of Israel in their veins who will understand under-stand and accept the better plan of life and salvation. I wish more of the young" people of Lehi had the opportunity oppor-tunity of going into the world to warn the people of the second coming of the Savior so they might prepare themselves for the things to come, for it is a wonderful opportunity to have. Must leave now to keep an appointment ap-pointment with an investigator m will add my wish for the continuation of your success and prosperity. Sincerely, Pearl Southwick. o POLLYANNA COLYUM What part of V person do we lose when we lose our balance? A writer says that a man should be master of his own noma or know the reason why. Married men usually know the reason why. Synonym: As rare as un.rouged lips. The first dinner iance was of cannibals around a missionary.

ITH'IUMIH During the past several months a great deal of comment has resulted from packers purchasing hogs direct from the country father than through central markets. This fact has been parade as a forerunner of the breaking break-ing down of the principle of centralized centraliz-ed livestock marketing. However, to the close observer who has studied the movement of livestock of all classes this situation hasnt indicated in-dicated anything alarming or prophetic prophe-tic of a change in the system of livestock live-stock marketing through central points which has proven itself so sound from an economical standpoint stand-point Unquestionably this situation has been brought about by the smaller small-er number of hogs available to meet requirements. The number of hogs in the country has decreased from 74 million in 1919 to 51 million in 1926. It is in. Cooking Device i lln Because of its outstanding cleanliness, economy and convenience,-Electric Cooking is far superior to any other method. Thousands of housewives who .are now using it in their homes , are, enthusiastic in their praises of it. Every Electric Range we sell is of the highest quality, backed by our guarantee and service. NOW IS THE OTftH FOwESS. Livjfifitnr,.k teresting to note that in the face of this sharp curtailment of hog pro-ruction pro-ruction the per capita consumption of pork increased from 68 pounds in 1919 to 77 pounds in 1926 and the con. sumption totalled nearly 9 billon pounds In 1926 as compared with slightly over 7 billion pounds in 1919. This decreased production and In-creased In-creased consumption is accounted for by the marketing of breeding herds, in many cases, attracted by high price levels. These figures Indicate an extraordinary situation, with decreasing de-creasing supplies and increasing consumption con-sumption and in this we find the answer to country buying. Experience in the past has proven that when hog supplies become scarce buyers generally have gotten closer to the Bource of production, thus making more sure a supply. In these periods the tendency has always been to go to the smaller marketing centers The Most 1 1 yjlllpi. li 'r JSlfl ! I 'f r"mfml&M I Down will bring you one of these wonderful servants.

The opposite op-posite to this is true when sufficient hog supplies are available and I be-liove be-liove this is aptly summed up by one of the large national packers. "When sufficient hog supplies are available It is not necessary for the packer to carry the added expense of direct buying and ho, therefore. Increases In-creases his purchases at the central markets. However, during the short supplies there is a direct effect on In. stitutlons at central markets, shipping ship-ping associations, etc. and we find the question is brought up as to whether there is a movement adverse to buy. tng through the central markets. "Unquestionably the increase in direct purchases has nothing to do with the support or non-support of central markets as the necessity and economical' value of central markets Is recognized, where receipts ana values can be recorded, a diversity of the supply made available to the purchaser pur-chaser at the least possible purchas ing expense (reverting to the benefit of the producer) and added to this is the highly trained selling service made available to the producer.' Briefly,' country hog buying is the Satisfactory In The direct result of under supplies and Is a natural temporary condition M to this, and as soon as production reack-es reack-es the point where the movement nay return to It's normal function, the volume will again be handled through the central markets simply repeating , what has happened many times before be-fore when production becomes subnormal, sub-normal, forcing the buyers as near as possible . to the points of production produc-tion in securing their supplies with economies both for producer and buy. er temporarily thrust aside to meet temporary conditions.
