At an adjourned session of the city council of Brigham City, held Thursday evening, at which Mayor James E. Halverson and Councilmen W. W. Knudson, M. L. Reeder, George L. Johnson and Manager C. O. Roskelley were present, the city tax levy for the year 1931 was fixed at 13 mills, which Is one mill lower than the levy of last year. The following matters were also given attention at the Thursday meeting: Mayor read communication from .assessed county -- clptk, stating-that valuation on town lots would not be raised. Ordered filed: Manager reported the completion of sewer and septic tank. Upon the motion of Reeder and seconded by Knudson, the council as a whole decided to inspect the sewer system Monday, August 10th, at 10:30 a. m. Upon recommendation of the Peach Day committee, council decided to enter float in parade Peach Day. The budget was considered and reviewed preparatory to fixing of the 1931 taxes. approximately $10,000, was formally accepted by the mayor and city conncll Monday, after the city officials had Inspected the lines, manholes, flash lines and the septic tank and outflow. On the proper showing that all bills had been paid, the contractor was discharged and his bondsmen released. The matter of making connections with the sewer system was also discussed by the city officials at an adjourned meeting held Monday. It was agreed that the cost of such connections should be distributed and prorated on all the frontage of the system on both sides of the street: from First North and First West Prof. E. J. Maynard, head of the department of animal husbandry, U. S. A. C., Logan, with County Agricultural Agent Stewart, had an opportunity to visit a portion of the Bear River Valley yesterday, and called upon livestock men. We now have a nice sprinkling of hogs in Box Elder county, and Prof. Maynard suggests that, with the low price of grain here, and with a favorable pork market existing, feeder pigs and shotes should be finished for market as rapidly as possible. There are two points in favor of a quick, early finish: The younger pig takes less feed for pound of grain, and hog values usually fall off after the middle of September. Prof. Maynard said: "The cheapest pork may be produced by wheat and barley either rolled or ground and in combination with alfalbutfa pasture and with termilk or some concentrated protein supplement such as dried skim-mil- k powder or tankage. "In a pig feeding experiment at present in progress at the U. S. A. C., pigs running on alfalfa pasture at the rate of 40 head per acre and receiving in addition a ration of either ground barley or ground wheat with a small amount of dried skim-milpowder, are producing the heaviest self-feedi- streets to Fourth North and Sixth West streets, but that the minimum charge for connections should be equal to a figure based on three-ro- d frontage. Out of the approximate cost of $40,000 for the system, $13,000 was met by special assessment on the property in the business district, and that part of the system serving the high school. Central and Lincoln schools, was paid for by the board of education, as was also that part of the system serving the county build- or.I ohoonoof ings, paid for by the county. The balance was paid for by the city. The cost of the system between First North and First West and Fourth North and Sixth West, outside of the septic tank and the outflow therefrom, will eventually be returned to Brigham City by those using the system In that section. skim-mil- k, k (n 1.0 ovnortmont f Wounded Youth Is Improving Rapidly Dr. Clark Rich advises today that the condition of Edgar Wells, 19, of Willard, who is in the Dee hospital with a bullet wound in his neck, inflicted Thursday evening by an accidental rifle shot fired by his brother Noble, is favorable and that hopes for his speedy recovery are entertained.

We are also arranging for the completion of registration as conveniently as possible for students and to avoid interference with the work. To do this and to also give the older students first choice of lockers, etc., the following program has been arranged: "Senior students may complete registration Saturday evening, August 22nd, beginning at 7:30 o'clock, by paying fees, selecting lockers and getting their daily programs which the teachers have made out during the summer. In the same way, Monday evening, August 24th, the Juniors; on Tuesday evening, the Sophomores; and on Wednesday evening, Freshmen will complete their registration.

The following splendid talk on Leadership in Scouting was given by Ernest P. Horsley of this city, member 'of the M. I. A. General Board, at the June (1931) conference! in Salt Lake City. His address also appears in the August issue of the Improvement Era: Much talk of leadership has caused ward authorities to remark that there is a discrimination against the ordinary member and that only professional men and women are being noticed and used. Perhaps there is a slight tendency e the on the part of some to leadership question, but it is not a fact that many stake and ward officers are overlooking the absolute necessity of making practical approach to consistent and efficient leadership and accepting the passive and Indifferent notion of "anyone will do regardless of personality and adaptation for purpose? We have thousands of boys in this nation and only a small percentage are properly directed because of lack of leadership. Much valuable time is being wasted in the training of boys. Time cannot be recalled. It is valuable and this practical age Is demanding conservation of time and proper utilization of the same. Let us think of the subject in hand on the basis over-stat- plete registration. The seventh and eighth grades will also register on Saturday morning. 'Lockers this year will be assigned in the order of registration. Those registering first will have the first choice. If, however, some students who live at a distance, find it inconvenient to come in early, if they will write us, we will reserve lockers for them until August 29th. The three following suggestions are made in the hope of keeping of merit down expenses this year: If time is conserved, it means that 1.

The descendants of M. C. Jensen held a very- successful reunion at the Maple Creek Hatchery at Mantua, on August 7th. M. C. Jensen was among the first group of Mormon immigrants whe came from Denmark to Utah. He embraced the gospel in 1851 in Denmark. He left there in the fall of 1852 and arrived in Salt Lake, on November 28,. 1853. His children present at the reunion, were Denmark, Peter, John, Elias and Hyrum Jensen, Mrs. Emma Rasmussen, Mrs. Lana Alvord and Mrs. Martha Reese, all of Brigham City. There were in all, 180 members of the family present. The family represented by the largest attendance, was that of the late C. M. Jensen, deceased son of M. C. Jensen. Fifty members of his family were present at the reunion. A delicious luncheon was served to all present. The following program was carried out: Song by Lynn and Don Iverson of Bear River City; reading by Clair Hailing of Mantua; song by Violet Jensen and May Hill of Logan ; remarks, Denmark Jensen; song, Mable Jensen, Doril White and Bodel Olsen, all of Brigham City, and a song by Otto Jensen and Ralph Olsen of Brigham City. After the program, games and social activities were enjoyed. A committee was appointed to arrange for and take charge of the next annual Jensen reunion, with Patriarch Denmark Jensen as president; John Jensen as vice president; Isaac H. Jensen, secretary, and Mary Jensen, corresponding secretary. The committee will also carry on the genealogical work, which has so suc-In cessfully been taken care of the past. t activity-library-laborato- ry i 1 Herman Turner, 19, and Ernest Gilbert, 20, of Twin Falls, Idaho, were arrested in this city Monday night by Sheriff John H.

Many phases of the fruit industry, such as pruning, thinning, irrigation and fertility practices; grading and packing of fruit, etc., will be studied in the demonstration orchards, and marketing on the farmers market. The entire tour will be a very profitable and pleasant trip. The crowd will first assemble at the orchard of Neilo Christofferson, south Main street, Brigham City, to check over the demonstration on pruning, thinning and Irrigation. Please remember the dates, and try to make the tour. ROBERT H.
