The Story of the Bible Told in Pictures .'i 1 mm The Birth of Cin nd Abel. When God had cast out Adam and Eve for their sin, and closed the Garden Gar-den of Eden to them, they were forced to toil for their food. "Cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow; shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shali eat the herb of the field; In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground J for out of it wast thou taken; for dust thou art, and unto dust thou return." Gen. 3: 17-19. The lateij fulfillment of this curse is portrayed by the artist in the background of this picture. The world's first family fam-ily pictured in the foreground includes Cain and Abel, the two sons of Adam and Eve, whose births are recorded re-corded in Gen. 4: 1-2.

Recently added to the ranks of Utah's production mines is the Park City Utah. Mines company, Itnated In the southeastern end of the Park City mining region. The company recently started production produc-tion on a small scale after several years of development work during which time more than a quarter of a million dollars was expended. Pictured above is the Star of Utah tunnel from which ore is being mined by the Park City Utah. While extensive prospecting was done prior to 1910, development of the mine by the present company was started in 1928. The first prospecting pro-specting work was to extend a long development tunnel from the Ou- Glenn Smith Arrives Home From Mission Elder Glenn Smith, son of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Smith, arrived home last week from the Northwestern States mission field, where he has been serving as a missionary for the past two years.

Be Presented )vard Trend In Farm Price Index Forecast Prospective increases in domestic business and coasumer incomes are expected to result on the whole In a stronger demand for farm products prod-ucts in 1940 than in 1939. Export demand for a few farm products will be increased because of the war says Director William Peterson, of the Utah State Agricultural college Extension Service, after analyzing the Outlook for Demand and Prices issued this week by the Federal Bureau Bur-eau of Agricultural Economics, The war, too, has been partly responsible re-sponsible for the sharp Increase in Industrial activity In the last part of 1939, and has improved business prospects for 1940 as a whole. It is probable, however, that business activity and consumer Incomes would have shown some Improvement In 1940 even If there had been no war, Director Peterson observes. Cash Income from sales of farm products should be materially higher high-er In 1940 than In 1939 because a slightly larger total volume of farm produce will be disposed of at higher prices. Prices of commodities and services used In production of farm products in 1940 probably will average a little higher, says the director. Some rise In wage rates is expected although total farm employment will decline further next year, but greater use farmers to maintain production at cuiTeiit levels. Higher prices for farm machinery and building ma terials are expected. Prices of most fertilizer materials will rise a little. Prices may be lower for some seed except for the shortages of certain crops such as red clover. Feed prices advanced In September along with the advance in grain prices and are now hicher than a year ago. During the remainder of the 1939-40 season little change in feed prices ts expected ex-pected in view of ample supplies.
