"It's been the worst year for farm accidents that I can recall iri quite some time," Ashby said.

A few horrible Incidents of poisons put into packaged products over the past several years have put a new perspective on packaging. R should be functional and attractive, but also protect us. . The new buzz word In packaging Is 'Tamper -- evident" rather than tarn -per resistant. Not only Is It almost Impossible to make a package but truly resistant to tampering, many consumers complained that tamper-resista- nt packages were so tightly sealed that they were becoming too consumer resistant. So, rather than complex caps and security devices, most tamper-resista- nt packaging has a simple cellophane seal and a warning to the consumer that the product should not be bought If the seal Is broken. Prior to the much publicized product tampering poisonings in 1982, tamper-resista- nt packaging was designed primarily to keep consumers in check. Consumers' switching caps from a lower priced product to a higher priced one was a common problem. Inadvertent contamination is also blamed on one outbreak of food poisoning.

The fact that the activity of our reserve officers was reported to be advising our young people to turn down the volume on their car radios is evidence of the nature of our city. basic It is my feeling that our thanks to the Salt Lake Tribune should be New faces in packing By Roger Sturman Is There Life After Peaches?

California charges $49 per ton. Nevada charges $20. Are you sure you want to know what Utah charges? $3. That's right, just $3. This tells us that California understands somethings about the gravity of the problem, and equips herself to inspect and control to her own standards, tougher than those established by EPA. Compare $49 to $3 again. We may want to ask ourselves if Utah IS a modern technological society! Surely a very naive one. What is the obvious implication? The entire western United States wants to dump on us. Our absurd $3 fee allows them to transport the stuff hundreds of miles to Utah and STILL come out . t JESSIE WILLIAMS WILMA DAVIS BARBARA MAYER BESSIE EDWARDS MEL OSRORN f Amr I pktdft alW(lanrt to the fla of th t'nltH Sm.. , nd to the nrHiMlr " or n it, on iir- - Gnd, tndt.ifiMt, with titwrtv and Justus for all. lor which tt City Council whey ! t?fa Competitive Prices ) lively to Mill ox d & MineXAvillt On vie 3JB7-28G- Councilman Grimshaw moved, Councilman Smith seconded, effective immediately, Beaver City rescind the outside the City moratorium on water connections in the Grove area only.
