A meeting of the Woolgrowers of the state was held in Brigham City, Tuesday, August 12th. The meeting was called for the purpose of organizing Box Elder County Lamb Eating campaign, which is nation-widbeginning August 23rd, and continuing until August 30th. ; The consumption in the United States and the State of Utah is far below any other meat per capita. The income from the sheep industry is of the agricultural income of the state, therefore, it is thought that an industry of such proportions is entitled to serious consideration. In this educational campaign the State Association is assnrpd of na tive from the packers and stockyards, commercial clubs, agricultural 'colleges, rotarian ""clubs, kiwanis andLions clubs. In 32 towns and cities in Utah lamb is to be features in shops, restaurants and hotels and is to be served in club luncheons,' etc. Talks will be given on the helpful and economical consumption of lamb. The responsibility of carrying out the campaign in Box Elder County was given to the ladies auxiliary. Mrs. Lucinda Jensen was made chairman with Mrs. Fred Soren-so-n of Brigham City, Mrs. A. R. Garland, Mrs. J. Y. Ferry of corinne, Mrs. Joseph A. Nelson of Portage, Mrs. E. J. Holmgren of Garland, Mrs. Ariel Hansen of Fielding, ivirs. u. w. snow of Deweyville, Mrs. C. J.

A. SUPAN, Secretary. Baby Odell Nelson Laid to Final Rest Funeral services were held at the Penrose ward chapel for baby Odell Nelson, one and a half year old son of Mrs. Maude and the late William Nel son. The services were in charge of Counsellor Merlin Grover. Musical numbers were furnished by the Gar land and Tremonton Male Quartettes, a duet by George Nye and Mrs. D Henry Manning, and a cornet solo by u. u. Sweeten. The speakers were Austin Miller, Counsellor Roy Anderson, of the Thatcher bishopric, Bishop James Walton and President C. E. Smith. The first speaker told of the brilliant little life of the child and of how his death came about, stating that he was only gone from the house for a few seconds before he was missed and a hurried search, which lasted for near ly a half an hour, found the baby's body a half a mile from the home of Mr. Taylor, at which place the Nelsons were visiting. This was a correction of the statements of the papers that the child was gone for 20 minutes before it was missed. The remaining speakers spoke words of consolation and encouragement to the loved ones that had been called upon to bow their heads in grief twice in so short a time. The services were beautiful and with the chapel filled to capacity, many having to stand. The floral offerings were many any beautiful. Interment was made in the Bothwell-Thatchcemetery beside the little one's father', who had preceded him in death only a few months. J er Evans Relief Society Ladies Enjoy Party surprise party was tendered President Bertha Hansen, of the Evans A Relief Society, Thursday, in the form of a canyon trip. At 10 a. m. eighteen ladies gathered at the home of their president and were driven in a bussde-to Brigham canyon. At noon time a licious luncheon was served and the afternoon was spent in playing games. At 5 o'clock dinner was served, after which the party returned to their homes. present, but the senator from Box Elder, Tracy R. Welling, gave a good account of himself by his witty stories, as well as serious remarks. Representative Lucinda Jensen also proved herself capable of telling a good story which seemed to strike a sympathetic chord. She also casually referred to some of the probems confronting the citizens of Utah. Miss Myrtle Davidson led in several amusing games, and as the picnickers departed to the fourteen communities represented the sentiment prevailed that an enjoyable and profitable day had been spent, and that it should become an annual event FARM BUREAU PUBLICITY Cap-ener.- rs of Elder Clarence Bigler Appreciates Paper A missionary sends an interesting letter to the Leader, expressing appreciation for the home town paper. The letter follows: 23 Booth Street, Handsworth, B'ham, July 24, 1930. I've certainly 'misapplied the saying which in effect says that we should never put off till tomorrow what we can do today. In regard to this letter it seems that I've changed it to read, "Never do today what you can put off till tomorrow," although I very seldom receive the Leader that I don't think its' about time that I should write and express my thanks and gratitude to you for so graciously sending me a copy each week. I'm sure it's only human nature whether a person is at home or abroad to want to read all the home news and I can assure you that in this respect I have a good sup ply of human nature for I certainly look forward each week to the arrival of the Leader and if by chance it should be lost in the mails I always feel disappointed. By the many changes of addresses I ve had I presume you think I've beer roaming all over England, but quite to the contrary, it's the addresses that are moving as I always have the paper come to the District office. But let that be as it may I've been rather fortunate in receiving the papers just the same. From my point of view, I've labored in two of the most interesting sections of England, namely: the Liverpool and the Birmingham Districts; the Lanca shire section with its immense popula n tion, weaving industry and coupled with it the rather strained economic conditions. I'm sure that a more hospitable people couldn't be found in the whole world. The Birm ingham district is more appealing for its places of historical interest although it is also an industrial section. Of late I've been laborintr around Birmingham, Worcester, Leamington Spa, Warwick and Stratford-on-Avo- n which are all places of particular interest. Being that some of these places are rather close together, and is the birththat Stratford-on-Avo- n place of Shakespeare, hundreds of American tourists can be seen passing through during the summer months. It's sometimes rather amusing to be a spectator at some of the peculiar predicaments these people get into as a result of the different system of money and customs. I've greatly enjoyed my missionary work in this country and don't think there's a greater or grandeur work in all the world. However, when my work is completed here and I'm released by the same authority that called me I'll be glad to return to the valley of the mountains. I thank you again for the paper and with best wishes I remain sincerely yours. CLARENCE V. BIGLER. world-know- We cannot qualify liberty.

PROJECT NOW Wier UTAH, THURSDAY, AUGUST 14, 1930 Prices on Upward Trend And Lower Freight Rate on Oct. 1. Financial interests in Box Elder county, than whom none are slower to take unnecessary risks, are advising the growers to noui tneir wneac irom SO tn fiO Havs. with the pxnectalion of a material increase in price in that period. The advice is based on the opinion that the price of wheat having drooDed from G3 cents a bushel to 54 cents, and is now ranging around CO cents, has reached its lowest level, and that from now on, it is reasonable to expect higher, rather than lower prices to prevail. There are two important factors in support of this view of the future market. The first is the drought which has harried the east and middle west for the past several weeks, which has greatly diminished the yield of corn and wheat in those areas. Figures given out through the United States department of agriculture during the week, place the decrease in the corn crop at 7 per cent and a negligible decrease in the wheat crop. These figures are regarded as extremely conservative and designed to allay the panicy feeling, which has made itself manifest in the agricultural districts throughout the entire coun- - HerWmtte event of a failure of the corn crops of the east 'and middle, west, ' there would inevitably follow a greater consumption of wheat and therefore higher prices for the latter are reasonably to be expected, just as certain as the reported decrease in the corn crop has resulted in a material advance in the price of com. There can be no certainty that the lowest price has been reached for wheat. A vear ago, the growers readily obtained from $1 to $1.10 for their wheat, while the year before, in 1928, the best price obtainable was 72 cents. So it can be readily seen that there Is no certainty with regard to a stabilization of prices. However, as the 1930 wheat crop in this section will run close to 30 per cent greater than that of many previous years, and warehouse facilities either at Lampo. Tremonton or Garland, are insufficient to store a crop that will run over a million bushels, it follows that many growers are compelled to place their wheat on the market at the prevailing price, whatever that may happen to ' be. That this is the fact is evidenced by shipments of grain from Tremonton Ufunnn .Tnlv 15 and the first of the month of 89 cars, with nearly as much month of 89 cars, witn nearGarland from much as ly, is that the storage situation is acute, borne out in the rush work being done on the third unit of the Box Elder Warehouse corporation at Garland. Already there are two warehouses, each with a capacity of 200,000 bushels of grain, stored to their capacity and another warehouse, with an additional 200,000-bushcapacity is being rapidly constructed. The fact that the U. S. Inter-Stat- e Commerce commission has authorized a reduction in the freight rate on grain of 6 cents per hundred weight, to go into effect on October 1, the same having been given the approval of President Hoover, is perhaps ine most important factor in ine crnvernment farm relief, in a difference of 6 cents per with that, hundred pounds on the cost of grain shipments in favor of the shipper, the farmer is given considerable leeway in the matter of holding gram ior better prices. It is pointed out that the difference in interest, which the farmers will be called upon to pay to the banks for carrying their paper period, as well during the 30 or as the price they will have to pay for storage, will be more than offset by the decrease in the freight rate. el mucn-uoimt- 60-d- ay Tremonton Missionary Gets Position of Honor Word is received here from the French mission that Elder Lloyd R.
