Of eourse if this mile of road was to be constructed on the upper road to Providence, where the townspeople would get a chance to use it, they would have said nothing but when Millville and Hyrom will use the model road more than the Providence people will, they cannot see the justice of saddling the tax onto them and taking it off the other two places. The commissioners on the other, hand showed that they are powerless to remedy the situation and told the delegation that if the five mill tax is removed, not a dollar of the state road money can be spent there this year. The committee stated that Providence residents will be glad to forego this expenditure of state road money if the tax is taken off, and so the commissioners promised to consider the matter fully and give their best judgment iq relation to it, ' Commissioners Thatcher and Larsen of Lo'gan City appeared before the board in company with showed plans Sheriff Barker-an- d for the remodeling of the city arid county jail.

One petition from residents of Benson, which asked that another bonding meeting be called by the commissioners, and another vote taken on the matter of issuing bonds for road purposes. No action was taken on the petition. There are several other petitions of a similar nature, in circulation, it is understood, but they were not presented on Saturday.

Single trees in New York state, eighty feet high, have borne as many as fourteen bushels of shelled nuts in one season. Unfortunately this tree is difficult to transplant, because of its long t, which chores straight into the earth and throws out very few fibrous tentacles to take hold of the soil. It is better to plant small trees or even the Hickory nuts, and watch their development jealously for a few seasons. In Cache Valley the Hickory is rarely Seen, but there are a few specimens of the species described above, which are very interesting objects. None of the others are known by the writer to grow, " here. If the man in the street were asked how many kinds of edible nuts were grown in our valley he would be apt to say, Not any, And yet the folare grown varieties lowing here successfully: Beechnut, Hazelnut, Chestnut, Hickory Nut, Black Walnut, English Walnut, Japanese Walnut, and Butternut, to say nothing ,of the Pine nuts of the mountains. All of these we have described except the Butternut and Walnuts which belong to the Jug-Ian- s family. The Butternut, Juglans Cinerea; is an attractive tree with compound leaves, consisting of eleven to seventeen leaflets, ofa light, green color, which turns to yellow and brown in autumn. It is hardy and prolific and grows with great rapidity in this latitude. A small coppice of them belonging to the writer, bears d sweet, quantities of nuts every season, that give unbounded joy to the children and incidentally to a colony of squirrels in a neighboring wood pile. These trees value. have an of row a desirable .them How would be along ones street front ! And v et to most of our citizens the Butternut is a tree unknown. Of the Walnuts the Juglans nigra, or Black Walnut, is the kind best known in Utah. This is a noble tree with spreading branches, and a symmetrical crown, specimens not infrequently being seen one hundred feet high. In forests its average height is about seventy feet. It is one of the shapeliest of trees and is adaptable to street planting for shade, Stop It Instantly By Using ZEMO, the beauty and use: Its wood is Remarkable, Scientific Skin Remedy. extensively employed in the Oet a JBc Bottle and See For YourselL manufacture of furniture, cabineare few things worse than persistThere t-ware, becomis and etc., ent Itching when you feel like you could to the owing scratch youroll to pieces. ing very scarce, Don't scVatch. great-demanfor it.
