The article follows: "William Bailey, prominent Nephi resident who was here early in the week, states that during the next year or two there is sure to be a revival of Interest in dry farming in the Tintic Valley. Wheat grown in our part of the state is high in protein and as a consequence brings a splendid price. "Mr. Bailey says that there is no longer a set price per bushel on wheat but that growers of graiu are paid in accordance with its contents and value after proper chemical analysis has been made. "The past season has been a most successful one for the farmers in the Nephi and Levan end of the county, the yield being the heaviest in the history of dry farming in that locality, in some Instances being as high as 35 bushels per acre and averaging about 24 bushels for the immense tract which is of first importance among grain growing sections of this state. "A few years ago dry farming was carried on very extensively in the Tintic Valley and many thousands of acres of land were cleared and planted. The profits were not large, however, aud many of the farmres quit and moved away. In the opinion of Mr. Bailey farmers In this section have the same opportunities as those in the Nephi and Levan districts. If the land is treated properly, planted at the right time and with the right kind of seed the yield will be heavy, he says. "I look for Noplii farmers to come Into the Tintic section, within the next few years, and place every available acre of ground under culti"I know vation," said Mr. Bailey. of no better place for the raising of dry land wheat." Republican Candidate For Governor Greeted By Crowd H. Wattls, Republican William Nominee for Governor was greeted in Nephi last night by one of the largest crowds ever assembled at a rally. Senator W. W. Segmtller was also one of the speakers. The speak ers discussed the campaign issues and stressed the need of electing the complete Republican ticket. Services Held For Wilford J. Sells Funeral serivces were held Sunday afternoon at the Juab Stake tabernacle over the mortal remains of Wilford J. Sells, 47, who passed ayay suddenly last Friday morning, following an attack of heart trouble. The services were in charge of Bishop Thomas Bailey, and the opening prayer was offered by Joseph W. Barnes. The speakers were Wilford Bailey, John C. Hall, and Thomas Bailey of Nephi and B. H. Roberts of Salt Lake City. The speakers told of the many excellent qualities of the deceased, and spoke words of consolement to the bereaved family. They also stated Mr. Sells was a good husband and father, and that he was a constant companion to his fmily. Music for the services were as follows: Vocal selections, by a quartet composed of Mrs. T. D. Davis, Mrs. Robert Winn, Ralph Barnes and D. F. Tvinn; vocal selections by the Nephi ward choir; vocal solo, Clarence Warner; instrumental selection, Mrs. Diane G.

Twenty five stockmen attended this meeting and expressed themselves as being pleases with the work. Mr. Wallace showed that beef cattle as soon as loaded on the cars, become a national commodity, and was influenced by national price sche dules, instead of local prices, and urged producers of both beef and mutton to feed the better grades. The market for poor quality stuff is albut ways overstocked he stated, there never has been a surplus of the best quality. On this line Mr. Wallace reported a survey just recently made in the New York area which showed that the food requirements were' 1800 cars per day and that the average distance traveled per car was 1000 miles.
