"to to- city. in vtttt tt ws.MarcilleGross- MCornia,ac- ed there for an Farmers Urged To Support AAA Wheat Price There is no need of farmers who have cooperated in the AAA farm program selling their wheat for less than. the . loan rate of around ; 82 cents, says David H. Jones, chairman chair-man of the Utah county AAA committee. com-mittee. , One purpose of the AAA program, pro-gram, he pointed out, is to obtain for the farmer his fair share of the national income. If farmers of Utah county were getting a fair share, lor parity, for their wheat the price would be around $1.05 a bushel now. Cooperating farmers have been working toward $1.00 wheat since the first AAA program of 1933 and this year with marketing market-ing quotas and the loan program they are near the goal. , When farmers voted in favor of marketing quotas, they not' only voted to restrict the marketing of excess wheat, but they voted for an 85 per cent of parity loan rate as compared with a 64 per cent of parity loan rate last year. Farmers who are eligible for a loan and who sell for less than the loan rate are not only taking less for their wheat than they could get but are aiding in demoralizing the price of wheat for other growers With a supply of wheat of around 1,320,000,000 bushels in the United States and need for only 680,000,000 bushels, all farmers must cooperate in a program to support prices if they hope to receive a fair price for their wheat, Mr. Jones declared. "There is no sense in using up valuable fertility growing more wheat than we can sell at a fair price, but if we store the surplus this year and reduce the acreage seeded to wheat next year we can balance our production to the needs of the consumers and at the same time receive a better price he added. , o Chorus Starts Practices KLtedinChi. At a meeting of the Board of Education Edu-cation held on Monday, September 15, the question of cooperative effort ef-fort between schools and farmers in the harvesting of their crops was discussed by the Board. The Farm Labor Committee of the County Planning Board met with the Board of Education and suggested that some plan of cooperation between the schools and the farmers would materially help in the harvesting of crops. The Board passed a motion that the superintendent call a meeting of the principals, agricultural supervisors, super-visors, and Mr. Boswell, County Agent, to work out in detail some plan which would alleviate the situation. situ-ation. The meeting was held at 2:30 p. m. on Tuesday, September 16, at the superintendent's office, and was attended at-tended by all of the. principals, the agriculture teachers and Mr. Boswell. Bos-well. At this meeting it was decided decid-ed that each school, through their agricultural department, would determine de-termine the number of boys who de-sireu de-sireu to work and make this infor mation available to any farmers who wished to avail themselves of this labor supply. It was pointed out at the meeting that while the prob lem is more acute this year, it is not greatly different from what it has been other years, the difference being be-ing largely in the increased demand for labor. It was felt that this arrangement would make available the labor need ed in the emergency' and at the same time would not take students out of the schools who were not needeu and who are not old enough to do the work required. The cooperation coop-eration of the fanners is desired in making it possible in not expecting students to stay out to the point where it will seriously interfere with their doing successful school work when they re-enter school, and that the farmers be requested not to keep students out more than they are actually needed. v ' it was trie leeiinn - or tne ctoud that if . this plan were carried out successfully, it would not be necessary neces-sary to make any changes in the school program. Individual adjust ments have always been made in the past and will continue to "be made in the present situation. The farmers needing help are en couraged to contact the principals of the local high schools in the area in which they live. Students who Intend to remain out to help farm ers in the emergency should immediately im-mediately contact their principals and make arrangements before their absence. It is earnestly requested that parents who are requiring students stu-dents to stay out of school urge the students to contact the principal and make arrangements. D R.

Church Beautification Committee Com-mittee to all wards and stake committees, com-mittees, recommending and asking that a f all clean-up campaign be put ove rin each ward and in all communities. com-munities. The time when this cleanup clean-up shall be conducted and the method meth-od of doing it must be arranged by local committees it should occur before the winter storms come. Periodical clean-up days will stimulate stim-ulate a public interest in the beautification beau-tification program. An increased number of Individuals will take part when public sentiment is aroused. During the summer months there has been an accumulation of waste, trash and debris in many places. All of this should be cleaned up and now is the time to do it. Weeds and other such growths should be removed re-moved and burned. Places where insects and pests may hibernate and also their breeding places should be destroyed. Another good reason for a thorough fall clean-up is the protection of our health. Unclean places may be disease breeding.
