The celebration held in Bear River City on July 24th was the best of its kind we have had in years. The day commenced with a very splendid program in the ward amusement hall. After lunch, there were1 sports and races at the park under the direction of A J. Taylor. They were most splendidly conducted, and enjoyed, and the prizes were suitable and valuable. At 4 oclock a pageant was staged at the rodeo grounds, portraying the emigrants in covered wagons on their way to Utah. As, they made camp for the night, the brass band struck up the tune, Come, Come Ye Saints and then from the south bank of the Bear River, came the war cry of savage Indians. As a band of braved on yellow ponies came swooping down upon the emigrant camp, a battle royal ensued; one wagon was burned and as the fire spread in the June grass, the spectators were anticipating a real prairie fire, but the wives and children of the emigrants soon had it extinguished. When the smoke died down several red men lay dead on the ground. The pageant came as a surprise to the crowd, as the rodeo boys had said nothing about this part of thei program. The scene was well arranged and carried out. The costumof the Indians was ing and make-u- p perfect, with their almost nude bodies painted with war paint and feathers in their hair, riding ponies with only a rope in their mouths. The rodeo which followed, was, without doubt, the best we have had in years. We had began to wonder if our boys had forgotten how to stage a good local show. Mr. Laren Christensen, who was in charge of the pageant and rodeo, is to be commended for his splendid show and the boys who so ably assisted him, have had no little experience, and their willingness to carry ' out the entertainment is commendable. The band members, who heretofore have been obliged to stand on the) ditch bank while they played, were1 on an elevated platform which added to their spirits and consequently thei music. It is a long time since they have played so well, and so willingly. We had a lot of music, which pleased everyone very much.

The New York market, Utahs commercial egg outlet, which has been very unsettled for some time, was, strengthened considerably during the! past week with egg prices advancing several cents per dozen, it was an nounced recently by Clyde C. Ed monds, general manager of the Utah Poultry Producers Cooperative association. Mr. Edmonds has just an intensive survey of egg and poultry marketing conditions in the east, based on personal observation and study made during a three-wee- k visit to New York, Chicago and other large eastern cities. Low prices of eggs and poultry, which have been , existing the past two months, have tended to greatly increase consumption, resulting in the price advance, it is Indicated. ' The present great demand for the products should give the market a still healthier tone soon. Figures just released by the United States Department of Agriculture at Washington, D. C., indicate an increase of 33.3 per cent in the poultry consumption so far this year over last Providing this rate continues, the surplus stocks in storage will be reduced and the market will take on a normal tone again. The surplus of eggs and poultry in storage does not indicate an over production in normal times, but was resultcreated by ing from demoralized industrial con dltions. In his statement, the associ ation official issues a caution against any program of too rapid expansion until the market and industrial conditions completely right themselves. While an extensive expansion is little unwise at present, there is no good reason why the poultrymen should not carry out their building program to house this years pullets and continue with normal development of the business The depression, which now shows signs of breaking, is viewed as temporary swing of the business pendulum that will soon adjust itself. It is quite similar to the low cycles encountered by the poultry industry in 1922 and 1927, and likewise should be of short duration. In any event, the membership of the Utah poultry association, as producers of highest quality products, are assured of the best prices" obtainTwe through heir efficient marketing agency in New bom-plet- ed under-consumpti- on mi m The-choi- r -- - ", 120 Acres of Wheat Burn at Promontory Fire of unknown origin destroyed acres of wheat out of a tract of 120 550 acres Wednesday afternoon on the dry farm of Grover Harper at Promontory.
