As the Yule Tide approaches and the spirit of Christmas takes root in the heart of all men, we are again reminded of the great mission of the Master. We unconsciously set about to spread cheer and good will. Even the ' most disheartened will pause sufficient and partake of the spirit of this most humble celebration. Why should men who possess little faith, find time to breath in the spirit that commemorates the birth of our Lord and Master? In the spirit of divine faith, a gift of God, within the heart of all men, left for us to kindle by the evidences that surround us. To the people of the Juab Stake of Zion, those evidences are abudant. The power of God Is made manifest and even In trying times the land has produced in abundance. Our trials are the result of the weaknesses of men, for while some suffer for food and clothing, the granaries and warehouses are filled to overflowing. The great God of Israel still rules the universe and his children must be subject to His will. May we reach out with opsn heart and mind to the evidence which God has made so plain that men who have cought the light of faith declare with the prophets, "I know that my Redeemer lives and brings peace on earth, good will to all men. We your fellow servants, take this opportunity to express unto you, the pepole of this stake, our gratitude for the support you have given us and for the fellowship we enjoy with you . We rejoice In the blessings of the everlasting gospel and prize most highly our association with the good people of these communities. To the people of the Juab Stake we send greetings and blessings and pray that the spirit of the Lord may be Increased upon yu,o that you may have the strength of resist temptation and overcome evil with good. Put your houses in order honor the laws of God and obey and uphold the civil laws of the country. Let us encourage the spirit of good will, strive to overcome selfishness and greed, cultivate the spirit of the Master, that peace and love may abide In your homes. Sincerely your brethren Albert H.

"The purpose of the wheat adjustment payment is to put this additional purchasing power into the hands of the farmer for his to use at his discretion not irjerely to have him assign his adjustment payment to the first creditor who reaches him,'" Director Peterson said.

I The Livestock Situation LOS ANGELES, December 19, There are not many sections where the fact that it has rained is first page news. But there Is the case where a country is largely agricultural, and particularly so in California, where range sheep and cattle operators must depend upon the elements for feed, and where agriculture generally must depend upon rain and snow In the mountains for irrigation purposes. California is admittedly short on beef cattle, because of conditions that have prevailed for the past several years. Stockmen are hopeful that the heavy rains which recently soaked ranges and pastures will be followed by additional rain and warm weather. If this state is assured of good range feed conditions, there will be a tremendous demand for replacement cattle. The early rains have already stimulPted the demand for stocker and feeder cattle, as reflected in inquiries re ceived by commission men at the Lor Angeles Union Stock yards. While cattle prices are the lowest In many years. thre is some feelJ Ing of optimism among the beef cattle growers. For the most part the western country does not have an over production of beef cattle. In fact, the big increase in cattle numbers generally is in dairy herds where plans already are under way for a reduction in numbers. Cattlemen feel that the improve ment In business conditions and increased buying power, there will be a surplus of beef and that bee,f prices should react upward. There has been a tremendous movement of beef cattle to markets during the past few months and it Is quite likely that this movement most of which we to killers, was of a distress nature, and should clear the way for better market conditios in the Spring. Movement of cattle into middle western feedlots during the past five months, accordig to the United States Department of Agrlculure was about eight per cent smaller than the light shipments last year, and were far below the five "year average. It is also Indicated that the volume of cattle feeding In the western states this year is smaller than last year, and the number to be fed In Texas is expected to be considerably below last year. In other words, it appears that the cattle which ordinarily would have moved into feedlots have already gone to slaughter, which pave the way for smaller marketings next spring, a feature which may strengthen the price structure!
