Therefore, any such statement as would connect me as its author is false as I do not believe it nor have I made any such statements. L. F.

The Cross Roads Service, just completed, is one of the finest service stations in the northern part of Utah and is a credit to local builders and By J. W. Quayle, Junior Dairy Herd Improvement Association of Box Elder County. More economical production of milk is the greatest necessity confronting the dairymen of the region. This is a problem that cannot be solved by congress, but each individual dairyman must solve this for suppliers. Every part of the station has been given special attention by local firms. In the very near future the modern-l- y equiped rest rooms for both men and women will be completed. With ice in a short time an cream and cold drink stand will be operated in connection with the service station. The Cross Roads Service will be in charge of Emery Burns, the man with a smile, and he invites you one and all to come to him for "Service that .Serves" begininng Saturday, July 20. inter-mounta- in himself. The demand for milk and milk products is growing steadily due to the increasing population and wider knowledge of the food value of dairy products. Many dairymen still follow unprofitable methods of production. Profits in dairying is dependent largely on two factors, the cow, and how she is fed and handled. Professor Olsen, of South Dakota State College states, "The profitable cow consumes large quantities of food and converts it into milk. When a dairy cow uses the feed for other purposes, she ceases to be a profitable milk producer. The characteristic of converting feed into milk is inherited and cannot be changed in a cow by any method of feeding or handling. The best one can do is to feed so that this inherited characteristic is utilized to its maximum." The object of the Dairy Herd Improvement Association is the more efficient production of milk and butterfat. It answers the farmer's question, if it pays to keep cows, and takes the guess out of dairying. The Dairy Herd Improvement Association tester weights the milk of each cow in the herd for 24 hours and tests her milk for butterfat content. From these facts the production of each individual cow is calculated for the month, and value of same at market price. The feed for each cow is weighed and cost of the same is deducted from the value of her product. The final result is value above feed cost. ' Through a number of dairymen cooperating they can employ a trained man to do this work for them. The record of the association being compiled by a disinterested party has stamp of authenticity that a record of the owner does not bear in selling breeding stock. This feature alone often repays the cost of testing many time over, in increasing the market value of the profitable cows and their progeny. te GEORGE SOMERS OF EAST GARLAND DIES Word is received of the death of George F.

Mr. Mantlo, received the gift from the American Foundation for the Blind. Some months ago Mr. Mantlo, received a letter from the above institution stating that he, being blind, was entitled to this gift and an application blank, was forwarded to him to sign.

Bear River City Plans Big 24th Celebration In another place in this issue j grand celebration at Bear River City on July 24. In this announcement a real big time is promised to all who attend. It appears that some of the larger towns are not celebrating the 24th, or at least no announcement to that effect has yet been made. It is only fair to believe then that the celebration in Bear River City will receive a liberal patronage. This is as it should be for when Bear River City puts on a show it is a real one and it is done up in real western style and no sham. They ride 'em and "let 'er buck", therefore all who want to see a real celebration can join our little city on the south and spend a real pleasant day while the boys there make whoopee. A program will he held at 1 o'clock at which good speakers and a good musical program will be heard. The pople of the entire valley are cordially invited to join Bear River City Word is received from the office of in "their big 21th of July celebration. Lewis E.

EXCEL OTHERS More Buildings, Added Features Mark Steady Progress Of Co. Fair During the past ten days numerous meetings have been held by officials in the interest of the Box Elder County Fair. It is announced by the fair officials that all major attrac- tions and features have been signed up and without question the 1929 Fair and Rodeo will far surpass any previous year. This has been the aim of the fair officials and they feel that all that is necessary to accomplish this feat, up to the present time at least, has been done. Several features have been signed for that are unusual in their nature and something the likes of which have not been shown in any previous year which will furnish thrills aplenty for all who attend. Reports from the various committees are encouraging and point to the biggest year yet in agricultural displays with equal encouragement from the other departments. There has long been felt a crying need for a poultry and rabbit house on the fair grounds, there being no means from any other source by which this building could be built the Tremonton Commercial Club took it upon themselves to finance the project. Construction on this new poultry house has now already begun and will be furnished in ample time to house the poultry and rabbits for thia year's fair. Because of this fact it is expected that the number of entries in this department will far exceed that of any previous year. The poultry industry is becoming one of the county's main industries which was another reason why a building should be erected that so important an industry may receive .proper recognition as well as proper quarters. Many letters have been received from riders from all all over the country who having heard of the Box Elder Fair and Rodeo are anxious to come and participate in the same. From these letters received it is quite evident that some 35 or 40 of the country's best riders will be at the Box Elder County Fair and Rodeo this fall. The watch word is "boost and" work."
