At a business session of the Nephi Kiwanis club held Wednesday noon at the Forrest Hotel, that organization unanimouly favored the completion of the road during the year of 1934. The public affairs committee, con sisting of Russell Hawkins, Spencer E. Forrest and Dr. L. C. Warenski will ask the state road commission to appropriate sufficient funds to complete this road, thus affording a better connection with West Mil lard county and the Juab County Seat. The club also went on record as of a favoring the construction branch road from the Mount Nebo Scenic Loop road at a point near the head of Black canyon around to the basin at the base of the North Peak of Nebo. After this road is constructed. It is planned to build a trail from the basin to the peak. thus the hiking distance to the peak whi be cut down to only a few miles, Another project which was discussed was the feasibility of getting a C O C camp established In Salt Creek canyon for at least 2 montht this fall and have a good road built up Pole canyon. It is thought that this "work could be done during October and November, when work in the higher altitudes will have to be discontinued. The matter of rebuilding the Salt Creek canyon road and spreadig the gravel which was crushed last winter was also discussed and a committee will meet with Forest Supervisor Charles DeMoisey Jr., and the county commissioners relative to this matter.

Hi Wheat day will be held on Friday June 29, according to an annunce-me- nt made by A. F. Bracken, sup- erintendent of the Nephi Experimental station. A definite program for the annual celebration was not announced by Superintendet Bracken, but it is quite probable that a tour of the experimental station will be conducted in the afternoon, with a bonfire program conducted in the canyon Friday evening. It is expected that aiumber of the prominent educators from the Utah State Agricultural College and Erigram Young University, together with state officials will be present at the annual event. MORNING PROGRAM JULY 4 9:30 Parade, Pet Show and Band Concert. RULES 1 Boys and Girls under 16 years of age are to enter pets in parade and show. 2 Any kind of a pet may be entered. 3 Pets which cannot be led and tied up with a rope must be put in boxes with wire covering on sides so they can be seen ; and must be pulled on a wagon. 4 Every boy and girl that enters a pet must the give play ground directors their name, the kind of pet, the Pet's name, age of pet and special tricks it can do. 5 All boys and girls must be at the Central School at 9:30 to start the Parade which will be a short one around the playgrounds. 6 Every boy and girl will be responsible for their own pet. Prizes will be awarded for the following pets : 1. Largest pet of its kind. 2. Smallest pet of its kind. Lambs should be taken to mar ket as soon as possible, advises Alma C. Esplin, sheep and wool specialist of the Utah State Agrl cultural College Extension service. When the lambs are gone, the ewes will thrive on about one fourth less feed than is required when the lambs are with them. If the feed is too course and the range dry, the lamb stops growth And if more feed is not available. It should be weaned and fed or sold. Frequently lambs reach 60 to 70 pounds In August, but they are kept in the herd until October be fore they are sold, although they weigh no more than they did two months ago.

Bracken, superintendent of the Nephi-Leva- n ridge experim ental station, la In attendance this week at a conference of the Am' erican Association for the Advan cement of Science which Is being held at Berkeley, California. Mr. Bracken, who was formerly presid' ent of the western section of the American Society of Agronomy, has been invited to deliver two papers before the crops and soils section of the conference. Experiments in scientific dryfarming which have been conduct ed under the direction of Superin tendent Bracken at the Levan ridge station, have made the station fam ous in arid regions throughout the world. The present recognition of Mr. Bracken in being called to pre sent papers at the conference of the Association for the Advancement of Science Is a well earned recognition of the studies and experiments made by him at the local station. In the present year of world - wide drouth, it Is certain that Mr. Bracken's papers will be of extraordinary Interest at the conference. It is also probable that the remarkable way in which the wheat crop in the Levan ridge section is maturing despite lack of winter precipation and spring rainfall will be of vital intrest to all agriculturists who come from regions where drouth has caused total failure of crops. e Fattest pet of its kind.

Professor Es plin says. The division of herds bv breeds might be seriously consider ed. The fine wool sheep herd more easily and should not be disturbed too much by "travelers". The dry herd, yearling ewes, are generally herded too closely and destroy feed by over grazing and trampling. Too large a sheep herd makes labor more difficult and tends to keep sheep restless and ill at ease. Small herds of animals alike respond to more careful herding. Some careful operators divide old and young ewes and place all twin lambs together and give them extra feed; some put bands together by age of lambs and handle the herds less in cutting for market. , M.

Gross Sales Other Sources At a meeting of the board of directors of the Juab County Farm Bureau held Tuesday evening In the city hall, a unanimous vote was registered approving the Utah State farm bureau tax program and according to J. Walter Paxman, president, the local organization will cooperate with other local organizations in putting over the proposed program. The object of the Utah State farm bureau tax program Is to secure a substantial deduction in taxs now assessed against farms and homes end to shift this burden to incomes, inheritances, gross sales and other sources of revenue, thus eliminating the present and future levies upon property for state purposes and also through a proper system of classification, to have property assessed according to its earning ability. In order to effect the above principles, the following have been adopted: 1. The Income tax Is approved as being the soundest theory of Individual and corporate contribution to government and we favor- a- -, mendments to the present Income tax laws designed to raise the maximum of revenue. 2. Enact excise taxes on selected commodities upon a gross sales bas - is. 3. Raise the rates upon inheritance taxes. 4. Tax the deposits of mines as they are extracted and become available for sale, similar to the Minnesota plan and its occupation and adalorem tax. 5. At any time the sale of liquor ts legalized, that the profits derived therefrom shall accrue to the rtfcte. 6. Place" . the ' public' utilities or Utah upon the same or comparable base, both for taxation and rate making purposes. 7. Pass a constitutional amendment that will prevent the levying of taxes upon tangible property for it ate purposes. 8. (a) Enact constitutional and statutory provisions which will permit the proper classification of tangible properly according to the income derived therefrom, in order to more fairly adjust the burden of taxation among homes, farms, banks, mines, utilities and other property. (b Insist that income be recognized as a dominant factor In the assessed valuation of farm property and also that inhabited homes be separately classified to permit reasonable exempt-Ion- s or lower assessments. 9. Support federal and state constitutional and statutory changes to eliminate tax exempt securities. 10. Support consolidation in the of cities, departments counties, school districts and state, wherever, it can be accomplished to the advantage of the tax payer. 11 Oppose the peimit system and the theory of convenience and necessity as applied to the public highwavs and favor the liberalization and restrictive and discriminatory truck regulations: 12. SuDport the candid tes for public office who favor the enactment of legislation that will Insure thet success of the above program. It is our firm conviction thatthe eishty thousand adult farm people who are members of the UtahEState Farm Bureau, together witn the members of other organizations having a common purpose with those many individuals who have shown a willingness to support such a program of reform can and will succeed in effecting the above beneficial legislation. We appeal to all fair minded citizens of Utah to loin us in electing men and women to public office who will stand for and support this declaration of tax reform principles designed to insure equality and justice in taxation.
