Its brief in word, but broad in meaning and effects it can have on each man, woman and child who lives in this vicinity. this Christmas, is the advice. AT I happen to know that your hometown merchant has gone to a lot of trouble and expense to bring you the best possible merchandise, both for Gifts and the various other necessities you'll be needing for the holiday season. . . Not only can you get just about anything you want, but remember your hometown merchant is your neighbor and friend its he who makes the contributions that decorates our Main Street; its he who in the communities with aids the widows and contributions at Christmas time; its he who pays the taxes that maintain the schools in your town; its he who does a thousands and one other things that make your life pleasant. Im sure if those who think they have to make a trip to the city to do their Christmas shopping, will sit down and do a little figuring and apply common sense and reasoning, they will find it has cost them money to make the trip, plus the time lost and the inconvenience of driving through a snow storm or blowing out a tire, and too often, a car wreck.

FIREPLACE MAGIC IS EASY HAVE YOU NOTICED the tremendous change that has taken place on the corner of Main and First North in Roosevelt, where the Roosevelt Coffee Shop once was? Compliments are most certainly in order for Dick and Jessie Bastian, who have remodeled the interior and designed the front along modern lines. The building is now a definite place of beauty and adds much to the appearance of Main Street. It will house the Family Shoe Center and The Co-E- d Shop, which are owned by the Bastians. The open hearth adds its greatest warmth during the holiday sea- son. When children and grandchildren gather at home, the fireplace is the traditional center of meeting, j Even in our modern, centrally heat- ed homes, there is a certain special feeling of fellowship generated at the fireplace which can be found no place else.

One segment of the United States Government has entered a war that will find popular support among the people because it is designed to save both lives and money. The battleground will be the Nations streets and highways and the goal will be conquest of the growing toll of human lives and property loss resulting from traffic accidents. Last year (1953) a total of 38,300 men, women and children were killed in traffic mishaps, and the economic loss, including property damage, hospital and medical expense and other costs, was placed at 4 billion dollars. Most of it could have been prevented. The Presidents Action Committee for Traffic Safety has taken the initiative in a war of prevention by setting aside g December 15 as Day, when drivers and pedestrians alike will be called upon to observe all written laws governing traffic, and the unwritten laws of courtesy on the streets and highways. g Strict observance of Day by all drivers and pedestrians will, without doubt, cut the traffic toll for that day.

All Christmas trees sold must be designated for cutting by the District Ranger and a Christmas tree tag must be secured from the Ranger for each tree taken. Restricted cutting is necessary to prevent a surplus of trees from being taken and to protect trees along the scenic routes of the forest. In 1953, 265 native Christmas trees were unsold on Christmas day in Vernal. This represents a 20 overcut, which is a wasteful use of a valuable resource. A Christmas tree not used is a total loss to both the vendor and to the watershed as well as to the nations future timber supply. Most forest roads are closed by When the Christmas season.

There will be a number of dealers in the Uintah Basin having high quality trees for sale at a reasonable price and there will be ample trees to meet the demand of the communities in the Basin. Everyone purchasing a Christmas tree should make certain it is properly tagged. The Utah State law requires that all Christmas trees be tagged, Mr. Hurst said. DORMANT SPRAYING TO CONTROL WILLOWS Winter months may be the best time to spray those willows that drink up precious water during the growing season. Dormant snrav:ng to control willows is also called basal spraying, since the chemical is applied to the base of the willows and the treatment is not limited to the dormant period. Experimental work in Utah and other states has brought out some imoortanl farts about th!s control method. Researchers say that although dormant or basal snravmg to control willows is usually not quite as effective as spraying the leaves during the growing season, application apparently may be made at anv time of the vear. Wmlcr treatment offers several advantages, they point out. The spraying can be done when farm work is not so rushing or urgent. Aso, crops growing near the willows mav be damaged if this is done during the prowing season; winter spraying eliminates this dancer. Control has been good, the scientists claim, where the willows are fairlv young and the bark is smooth. If the bark is thick, cracked and rough. the results are apt to be disappointing. For best results I would recommend the following directions: 1. Spray the chemical on the lower two feet of the willows, being sure to cover the trunk well clear to the ground. 2. Use an ester form of 2, (noe amine). 3. Sprav with either of the following solutions which have proven sat:sfactorv: (a) A 5 solution of 2. and oil (th!s can he made up bv mixing one gallon of 2, to 20 gallons of No. 2 fuel oil); or (b) an emulsion made up as follows: one gallon of 2. plus 10 gallons of water, plus 10 gallons of No. 2 stove oil. plus one to two quarts of a liquid emulsifier. Be sure to use a pood c liquid emulsifier (not soap). One quart Is sufficient in warm weather, but use two nuarts in cool weather. Mix these ingredients together in the tank in the following order: First put in the oil. then add and mix the emulsifier, then the 2, and finally the water. When the 5 2, solution in oil is used, a light application is sufficient. Amount to use is about 40 gallons per acre. Where the emulsion Is used a very thorough wetting of the low- er two feet of willows is very essential. Probably about 160 gallons per acre will be needed. n 4-- 4-- 4-- 4-- non-ioni- 4-- 4-- Cheaper offer 6 p.m, end otl day Sundays, long dirtonce is one of modern living bargains. s geatest |
