The Agricultural Adjustment Act, measure to aid all branches of agriculture, has taken into account the facts on supply and demand and seeks to bring about adjusted production In the U.

It is thought that this plan points the way out of difficulties faced by corn and hog growers. Since industrial wages, international trade relations, and foreign hog production are largely out of their control, it Is suggested that farmers focus their attention on domestic hog production, the thing which they can control by united action. This project Is particularly important, because through an adjustment of production it is felt that a large part of the disparity between farm prices and the prices of things farmers have to buy can a II II II im g K V r . -- .

COl'XTY DKLKGATKK FINISH COLLEGE TRAIXIXG WORK ' Reed Smith and Russell Gentry of Reaver County returned Friday from the Utah State Agricultural College where they attended the 1st annual agricultural training course under the direction of the Extension rvlce. The delegates spoke highly of the course and of the admirable way in which the farmers were entertained while at the college. According to a chec made by W. W. Owens, assistant director of the Extension from 17 Service, the 63 fa'rmers counties were instructed and given S amusement by the following: 19 professors, 15 college heads of departments, 17 lecturers!. 550 students, and 50 citizens not connected with the Institution. In addition, special meals were served at the college cafeteria for the sepclal accomodation of the delegates and the gymnasium was made available before regular hours. Some of the farmers spoke of developing "mental blisters" because of the intensive program,, but the group maintained almost a 100 percent health record while in attendance. At the final session Director Wm. Peterson outlined the duties of each delegate upon returning to his county. "We have faith in you". Director Peterson said. "We look for each of you to become or continue to be a leader in your com-mui- ty and county and to carry the insruciio:iK you have received here back to your fellows". Director Peterson then pointed out the characteristics of a leader as: "Love of of feliowmen and of service, Initiative, vision, dependability, honesty and integrity. "A leader must be a trail finder and guide; one who has faith; is not discouraged and has good judgement", he Said. In the final session of the Extension Service conference, which was held in connection with the training course, as well as in the last session with the leaders, it was voted to continue the short course another year. There more subjects pertinent to farming will form the foundation on which next year's program will built. Director Peterson said. Detail of the plan cannot be given yet, but it is certain that acreages and yields of corn of the past two years will have to be given on the corn contract, as will also the number of breeding and other hogs on the hog reduction contract. It is well for everyone to think this over and have the Information at hand so one can readily make decisions as to WEATHER whether or not the reduction contract will apply under his condibe signed. tions, atid If It should Every farmer should make his own decision after analyzing his own setup together with the corn-ho- g Q situation of the nation. We are advised that contracts will reach us very soon now. 15 Friday o The Andersan Camp of the Daughters of the I'tah Pioneers will hold their regular meeting Wednesday, Iecemner 27 at 7:30 p. m. in the Library Building.
