TELEPHONES. Office, No.10 W. P. Epperson, No. S4 C. A. Epperson, No. 70 THE PLAN GROWS The Tribunes proposal that commission has a pipe line water system from the north end of the county to Layton, and from that point on south, most of the way to the Salt Lake county line, water is at hand. The entire distance between Salt Lake City and Ogden, therefore, could easily be supplied with water for the flowers, which should bloom in profusion on B3th sides of the highway connecting the two cities. Salt Lake and Dovis counties and private organizations should be prepared to take advantage of this situation and make a start as early as possible. Tribune, tourist traveling along the roads of California goes into ecstacies when he beholds both sides of the roads lined with hedges and even hills of flowers, and wonders at the fertility of a soil which will produce flowers in such endless abundance. Most of the tourists imagine, like Topsy, these gardens just growed, without watch or tending. They do not stop to thing that it was the fertility of the California imagination more thair-thfertility of the soil which produced the result. The state and county governments anil the people have worked together with g enthusiasm to transform California much of it once a desert into a 'land of flowers. State and county aid is required, because the work cannot be undertaken today and forgotten tomorrow. There must be a center where the work will be always in mind, a center which'will direct the energies and the efforts of the flower growers. So far as the state government is concerned, an appropriation cannot be obtained until the legislature meets again and there may be no fund from which money can be taken immediately to help the movement, but the county governments the tate and county governments join in t permanent movement to make Utah i land of flowers. It will be recalled hat the idea was endorsed by Utahs ioted florioulturalist, Robert Miller, those hothouses at Farmington are imong the most extensive in the state. The idea now finds an enthusiastic ho in The Weekly Reflex of Kays-- . More ille, Farmington and Layton. han three columns of the latest issue ,f The Weekly Reflex are devoted to ie proposal, and just as Mr. Miller sas able to offer some valuable suggestions as to the working out of the proposal, so the editor of The Reflex .hows how the people of Davis county ran lead in the work. Mr. Miller proposed that the governor appoint a commission to organ-z- e the work and he named a few prominent men and women, lovers of lowers, who wpuld be delighted to .ive their time and help. The Weekly teflex declares that every family in Dayis county should have a membership card in the association formed to NEW SCHOOL BUILDINGS lake the roads and public places of AND IMPROVEMENTS hat county blossom as the rose. Active operations will be comAnd if Davis county forms such an association, why should not the other menced on school buildings In Davis counties of the state adopt the same county school district immediately e never-flaggin- ( plan? We pointed out that California had accomplished some marvelous results by the public spiritedness of its people and by state and county aid. The could furnish aid without difficulty. Meanwhile the head council and the local organisations could accomplish much. The editor of The Reflex points out that Davis county already has a big asset to start with. lie says: The state road through Davie county is, in a large measure, already prepared for this work so far as irrigation water is concerned, as the State Road t I , bids will be after July of a gymnaserection for the opened ium nd auditorium to the Davis Central High school building at Kiysville, additions to the Syracuse school and also oddltions to the Layton school.

The Board of Education has decided to erect a new, modern building at Centerville, but the delay in securing a site for the building, owing to the contention of the patrons of the school, have delayed the operations materially. When it was first decided to build two committees appeared before the board, pressing separate These committees- - at last sites. a site, but it was found on agreed that the owner asked $1,200 an acre for the land, which the board deemed prohibitive.

Realizing that there is not sufficient time for the erection of a building i,ntime for school this fall, and owing to the fact that the present building will have to be wrecked, several patrons of the school think that it will be wise to defer work on the building until next year after school is finished. However the board has not taker! action in this phase of the matter. At Bountiful. The matter of a heating plant and lavatories for the Stoker school is still under consideration. This building has twelve rooms and the introduction of steam heat will require extensive alterations throughout th building, as the air ducts are too small for proper ventilation. It U proposed to erect a steam heating plant, consisting of a stack, boiler house and fuel room. The toilet building which will contain two rooms, each 22 by 28 feet in Mize, while the boiler and fuel building, constructed entirely under ground will be 15 by 16 feet in size. There improvements will be quite extensive and are still under consideration by the board. West Bountiful. At the West Bountiful building the four unfinished rooms in the second story will be completed and other' improvements and betterments made. Taken as a whole, the board has a great amount of work about ready to get under way and when completed will add greatly to the comfort and efficiency of the school plant in Davis county. st o Me-Vun- e, Kearns, Thomas David CENTERVILLE Is F01 an built to list forever.
