The social was held in the banquet room and recreational hall, commencing at 8:30, Wednesday evening. The Garland lions and their partners came out enmasse and the count of noses showed that the Garland Club had the local club outnumbered. UtriKthe banquet a splendid program was rendered, which included, an address of welcome, by lion President Taylor, of the Tremonton Club and a response by Lion President Michaelis, of the Garland Club; Jack Wahlen and Jesse Lillywhite, of Garland, delighted the audience with their golden voices; Dr. D. B. Green and Alvis Anderson furnished some very fine violin duets, Miss Dana Abbott pleased the audience with two readings and John Benson gave his masterpiece on "Cooperation." The forepart of his address was a very humorous indicting of most of the Lions and Lionesses present, while the later part was a serious indictment to the foes of cooperation. Following Mr. Benson's speech Toastmaster Harry Woodward invited the diners to the recreational hall where Frank Conshafter's Rythm Kings furnished the music for the light fantastic, which concluded the very enjoyable evening's social of the two clubs.

Some consideration has been given to the feed situation in the state, which has a bearing also on the pro duction of barley and oats. The production of oats for 1931 is forecast as 1,392,000 bushels compared with bushels in 1930 or nearly 500,000 bushels less than last year, The estimate of barley in the state is 1,290,000 bushels compared with bushels in. 1930 or a shortage of nearly 500,000 bushels of barley.

The dead are Heber George Bott, 26 of Brigham City, and Oland Oline Sorenson, 28, Bear. River City. Eugene Bott, 19, driver of the car, is in the Budge Memorial Hospital, in Logan, in a critical condition suffering from a broken back. Melvin Bankhead, 21 and Crosby Bankhead, 19, also of Brigham City, suffered minor injuries and were treated at the Budge Hospital. The accident happened about 2 a. m. when the young men were returning from Logan, where they had ben to a dance. According to State Patrolman Harry J. Clark, who investigated, the driver, Eugene Bott, must have dropped to sleep at the wheel. The place of the accident was just below the summit at a hairpin turn and the car overturned and rolled to within 20 yards of the bottom.. There is about a drop. Sorenson. and Heber Bott were killed instantly, both suffering from badly fractured skulls. Bott was removed to the Linquist & Sons undertaking parlors, as was Sorenson, who was later removed to the Stone mortuary ' at Brigham City. The two Bott boys and the Bank-hea- d youths are full brothers, their parents being George H. and Nancy Bankhead Bott. Sorenson is the son of Joseph and Selma Anderson Sorenson of Bear River.

Utah at no time raises more than enough grain or hay for its own use. The Utah State Farm Bureau is therefore advising the farmers of the state to check on their feed needs between now an next summer and not sell short. They are asked not to ship either wheat, oats, barley or hay out ot the state as there is barely enough tor our own use, if Mere Is that much. Due to the fact that there is no surplus, but a possible shortage, prices on these commodities should not be below cost of production at least, but the farmers should hold for a reasonable price even in spite of the fact that world prices are very low at the present time. If these feeds are shipped out, it will mean that the farmers will have to ship in later from other states and pay the regular price, plus the high freight rates that prevail in this territory, Do not be too quick to sell, the farm bureau advises the farmers of the state.' Be sure you have enough for your own needs and hold balance for : Yesterday afternoon Professor Del- mar Tingey and Professor Woodward, of the Utah State Agricultural College, met with a group of farmers and business men from Box Elder Countv on the farm of R. C. Richards, River side, to discuss the grain experiments that have been conducted by us again this season. This is the third consecu tive year that these grain plats have been planned on this form under the supervision of the Utah State Agricultural College Experiment Station. . Work on six varieties of wheat, six varieties of barley, six varieties of oats, ten varieties of corn, and six varieties of sorgum has been done this year. These varieties of grain are high yielding, disease resistant, very promising varieties that have been tried out for the past few years at the experiment station proper at Logan. After three years of intensive work here in Box Elder County, we feel safe in recommending to the farmers some of these varieties of. grain. ; Just as soon as we can ' harvest some of these plats a statement of yields will be given and we will have recommendations to .make. , Some varieties will average better than 100 e bushels per acre. : Robert H.
