Burton, superintendent of the Davis county schools, was notified of his reappointment? for a two-yeterm, beginning July 1, 1933, at the regular meeting of the board of education held in the Memorial courthouse Monday morning. Mr. Burton was reappointed by the unanimous vote of the board. The monthly financial report prepared by Clerk Thos. E. Williams for February was studied at the meeting with a view of finding out as nearly as possible what money will be available for the completion of the present school year. With the information at hand, it appeared that there would be a shortage of $10,000.00 in the estimated amount necessary to complete the nine months period. With this in mind, the members of the board requested Superintendent Burton to make a careful survey of the teachers salaries as they are now constituted with a view of making all reasonable saving possible by means of adjustments and reductions to meet the present crisis, and still keep within the educational standards of the state. Superintendent Burton read a report from the state records at the meeting showing that the average cost per child for educational purposes in Davis county amounted to $67.17 in 1931-3as compared with the state average of $83.81. The summary of the third terra school report showed that during the period just completed the average attendance was 92 per cent, aa compared with 90 per cent for the same term last year. Many of the absences were caused by roads. ed Beet Growers to Meet Saturday -- le erectors.

Commissioner Cook and Ixe Kay, houd game warden, traced the history of Utahs wild life, going back as far As the tiipe whom Lake covered much of the state. Commissioner Cook and Warden Kay7 stated that our pioneer forty fathers did not realize the necessity and importance of conservation. Aa an illustration of this point they cited the passing of the buffalo and other wild game. The native trout became extinct, and now the state department is planting fish that do not have the desire to travel that is characteristic of the native trout. During 1933 the- state contemplate planting more than thirty million trout in the streams of Utah, as well a furnishing thousands of pheasant for distribution throughout the hunting areas of thC state. The state officials said that Utah is not as fortunate as Idaho and Montana in having ample water for extensive fishing. In Yellowstone park alone, said Mr. Cook, there is more fresh water than in the entire state of Utah. Therefore, we have a problem distinctly different from that of our neighboring states and must exert unusual efforts to protect our fishing. The state is different now than in the time of the pioneers, said Mr. Kay. 7For one thing, the land was overgrazed. According to early pioneers, there was then year around grazing, which is now im, possible."
