CONSTRUCTION OF BIG WAREHOUSE PLANNED BY GRAIN GROWERS Board Members At Annual Meeting of Local Wheat Growers r Ass'n Held Last Monday John Ord Suffered A If plans of the local cooperative graingro .vers association worlc out, a witii IOO.uOU grain s:uii;e bushels or more capacity will be constructed in Juab Valley this year. Announcement of ttiis project was made to the members of Central Utah Grain Growers Inc. at the annual stockholders' meeting held in the City Hall Monday evening. Officers of the local association, together with J. E. Memmott, director in Intermountain Grain Growers, Inc., have been working through the regional association and the Farmers National Grain Corporation for the establishment of a bonded grain warehouse in this vicinity for some months past. Assurance has now been given by the regional and national organizations that the Juab county association will be taken care of with storage facilities and local officers are making strenuous efforts to obtain the construction in time for storage of the 1931 crop. It is expected that a sack storage warehouse will be erected so that each member's grain can be stored in an individual rick and disposed of at the growers option as provided in the uniform marketing contract. This system of sack storage has proved very popular in northern Utah and southern Idaho. For several years, such a warehouse has been in successful operation at Garland, Utah. This was enlarged in 1930 to 300,000 bushels. Under the loan system In vogue with the national cooperative grain marketing system, it will be possible to obtain loans on stored grain up to sixty or seventy per cent of the market value of grain stored in a warehouse such as the one proposed to be erected. It is freely asserted by local wheat growers that the storage and holding of the bulk of the Juab Valley wheal crop will enable growers to realize from ten to twenty cents per bushel over that obtained by shipping wheat to the California or Ogden market. With the growth of the poultry industry in Utah the entire Juab Valley crop should be marketable in this and adjoining counties at a price equal- - to the Idaho price plus local freight charges from Idaho or northern Utah. It was pointed out that Juab County is the only county south of Cache and Box Elder which raises a surplus of wheat. Since the local freight rate on wheat from northern Utah and southern Idaho is from fourteen to eighteen cents per bushel it is obviously desirable for Juab Valley wheat growers to store their crop and sell in Utah as the demand arises instead of selling at harvest time when local markets are glutted. It is equally obvious that by cooperating and holding together for the outside price plus the cost of shipping wheat to central Utah, Juab county grain growers will realize a price substantially above that which is usually received.

HORSE RACES AND EQUIPMENT READY TO TEST WELL AT ORSON BASE BALL GAME ON MEMORIAL DAY There will be a baseball game and five horse races at the Juab County Fair Grounds Saturday afternoon, as a part of the Memorial Day events, according to a decision reached Tuesday evening, when a meeting of the baseball association officials and a group of race horse owners was held at The Tunnel. The baseball game will be played between the Ephratm college team and the fast Nephi squad and should prove a real attraction for the holiday. At in the afternoon, the horse races will commence, and from reports Tuesday evening, there is enough local horses to make a real interesting racing program. This is the first racing event since last fall, and no doubt the people of Nephi are quite anxious to see the ponies in some good events. There is no doubt but what a racing program' with all Nephi owned horses will create a lot of local rivalry and be as successful in a small way. as any racing event that has ever been held here. To complete the day's program there will be a big dance In Nephl's popular open air dance hall, the Nebona Gardens. two-thir- CAZIER'S SOUTH FARM Stake Conference On Saturday And Sunday The quarterly conference of Juab Stake will be held in Nephi Saturday evening, and two sessions Sunday, May 30th and 31st.

"I believe one of the best things we could do as a nation at the present time, would be to subject the critics themselves to a certain amount of criticism.

M. Other Tests To Be Made j Irrigation water possibilities in Juab Valley will be determined today (Thursday) at the Orson Cazier farm in the south field, when a Pomona Centrifugal Turbine pump, propelled by a Fordson tractor will show what amount of water can be well. The pumped from a was installed Wednesday pump afternoon by Lloyd Hobbs, Frame Hobbs, Henry Williams, Harry Black, Orson Cazier, William Bailey, A. E. Smith and other mechanics. The well yielded over sixty gallons per minute during a short run made Wednesday evening, and competent engineers expect the supply to Increase as the sand in the pipe is pumped to the surface. In fact. Professor Peterson stated that the supply should Increase after the pump had been working for several hours. The well is 65 feet in depth, but the pump was only lowered fifty-fiv- e feet on account of the sand in the bottom of the pipe. During the short run made Wednesday the Pomona pump brought up quite a large amount of real fine creek sand, which indicated that the pipe was In some very favorable waterbearing sand. The general public is invited to inspect the well this afternoon, (Thursday) at three o'clock, as at that time the pump will be In operation and a test will be made. of the Pomona Representatives Pump Company will be here to assist in keeping records of the amount of water obtained from the various wells to be tested. It is quite probable that other wells. In the valley, will be tested while the pumping equipment is in the vicinity. The test is being made through the wholehearted cooperation of the live wires of this community, and should it prove entirely satisfactory, there is no doubt but what there will be a number of wells drilled In the valley. It is a well known fact that the progress and future development of Juab Valley depends to a large extent upon, the water supply for irrigation purposes. If the underground water supply is as great as geologists believe it is, then we can hope to see the lower lands transformed into one of the greatest agricultural sections of Utah. In several valleys in California and other states the underground water supply has changed the entire outlook for development, and since the farmers have been able to have a larger supply of water available, the communities have been grow ing and the farmers have been getting larger profits from their farms. six-in- .t tt McAdams. of the Purina rnmnanv. distributors of feeding products, discussed the poultry sit uation of the country, at tne regular weekly meeting of the Kiwanis Club, Monday.

To substantiate his prediction for a firmer market in the near future frr pcck he said that he checked up on deliveries to the New York market during tne middle of May and found that receipts had fallen off 50 per cent from May 13th to May 19th, indicating that the market would shortly be demanding more eggs, and at better prices. tip stated that he did not expect to see the price of eggs reach an abnormal price, but would reacn a price sufficiently high to pay the poultry man a reasonable and satisfying profit.
