Special thanks are in order to businesses whose generosity made this happen: Featherweed Press of Castle Valley, your own newspaper, and G&M Equipment Rental for the use of that wonderful chippershredder! We are also indebted to Dave Cozzens' Construction company for previous large contributions in labor and materials. Thanks from the heart to all of you! We hope to see efforts like this be both and seasonal. They are a lot of fun, will significantly reduce the volume at the dump, and can easily be done on a very large scale through the pooling of civic resources.

Tom Kuehne Friends of Moab Dear Sir, As we kick off the holiday shopping season, I would ask everyone who is shopping for childrens gifts to stop and think before you buy. Toy companies make a lot of money selling toys that promote violence, sexism, and racism. The moral choices are left to the consumers. All too often we succumb to the hype in the rush of the holiday season and forget to think what messages we give children along with their toys. Stop and ask yourself: Does this toy teach that violence is the solution to conflicts? Does it teach little girls to be passive or little boys to be aggressive? How are and female characters porte non-whi- trayed? Art supplies, books, sports equipment, and music are alternatives that send positive messages to kids about the richness of life. Consider them in place of the latest fad toys. We can only attain world peace when we stop raising children on images of hatred and violence. Please, in the spirit of the season Peace on Earth don't buy war toys, and shop thoughtfully. Thank you. Sincerely, Vicki B. Webster Citizens of Moab, I have just learned about an ongoing D.E.A. operation here in our little city. D.E.A. agents have been in to "Visit all of our local doctors and all of our local pharmacies. It appears that the government does not feel that we are capable enough, stable enough or affluent enough to receive LEGAL NECESSARY PRESCRIPTIONS. Our doctors have collectively been bullied into stopping the patients whom they have treated for many years from receiving medication. The medications affected are a variety of sleeping pills, muscle s, pain-killer- relaxers and There are many people who cannot live a pain-freproductive life e, Wetlands plants will soon be available Lone Peak State Forest Nursery will soon be raising plants that can be used to restore or create wetland and riparian areas.

Glasses later will not correct the condition. . either from us or from other nursery operations. "This project owes its existence to several private and public cooperators," says Beagle. Utah Power & Light Company is a principle contributor to the project and plans to use wetland plants from the project at several of its hydroelectric project sites." The state Department of Agriculture and USDA Forest Service contributed funds through grant requests. The USDA Soil Conservation Service designed the system. "We're building a unique system of four ponds that duplicate natural wetland ecosystems," explains Beagle. "Weil be able to grow four specific wetland plant species for sale to public and private groups, as well as study the conditions necessary to stimulate growth."

Wetland plants are being used as filters for sewage and waste water treatment plants and for agricultural sediments and water pollutants because they absorb nitrates and other potential pollutants. "We hope to have plants available beginning in 1993, says Beagle. The first round of plantings will be done in the spring of 1992. "I expect the demand to do nothing but increase over the next few years." The Lone Peak nursery raises many varieties of native plants for a wdde range of agricultural, w'indbreak and reclamation conservation projects. Nursery operation and maintenance costs arc defrayed by sales. without some of these medications. Anyone can see that the next step will be the D.E.A. agents and their undercover plants selling black market pills in every bar in town so that we ALL can be prosecuted for buying illegal drugs!
