The latter item gave city councilmen reason to smile. It had been disclosed a week earlier that mistakes in construction of the new tap station could cost the city thousands of dollars to correct. Specifically, Utah Power and Light company inspectors had said poles were located too close to a switch and would have to be moved. And a circuit breaker also was not situated right. Councilman Doug Wight said relocating the poles and related expenses could have cost between $10,000 and $15,000. However, he said Tuesday that Public Works Director Roland Nuetzman, an electrical engineer, working with electrical department personnel, had arrived at a solution. It involves simply reversing the switch and additional grading around the circuit breaker. Utah Power and Light has given its approval.

The farmer is their If he goes under then it's going to hurt them too, Marble said. Marble said the farmers are asking for parity prices for all domestically used or consumed agricultural produce and for all foreign exports of food. In addition, all agricultural products produced for national and international food reserve shall be contracted by any or all governments at 100 percent of parity. An entity or structure should be created with input from farmers to handle marketing of American agricultural products at 100 percent of parity. And meat and livestock imports must stop until parity is reached. Marble said if these demands are not met, then the following will take place: We will not sell any farm products. We will not produce any more agricultural products. We will not buy any agricultural equipment, production supplies or supplies, he said. Marble said farmers are not advocating violent action nor will they condone it, but bread-an-butte- r. they are asking all farmers to join with them. We are asking them to park their equipment along highways with signs the public that they will sell no more products until their demands are reached. Marble said the goal is for at least 75 percent of all US farmers to join with the group. All we are asking is for farmers to do what they can, he added. Who do farmers see as culprits in the problem? The US Department of Agriculture. Either directly or indirectly through imports and exports the department of agriculture controls the prices of our products. And we have a gripe with the people who play the futures and the dealers who pay nearly nothing for our grain. Then sell it abroad for tremendous profits. . . the farmer added. He said the USDA has a cheap food" policy which farmers agree with, but not at the expense of losing their farms. Even at achieving parity, the United States telling : GENUINE HANDMADE : INDIAN BEADW0RK & i SILVER JEWELRY I I ; Leather Purses Sandpainting Shawels Rugs Indian Vests & Shirts Indian Hand Tanned Moccasins Decals & Bumper Stickers a & ? ? ? ? ? INDIAN TRADING POST 82 S. MAIN BRIGHAM CITY would be paying 10 percent less than any other country for its food. Marble said the movement is grass roots but it is seeking help from other farm organizations to join with the farm- ers. We're asking farmers to get together for the first time to get Congress to write a farm bill that guarantees 100 percent of parity. The farmer, who raised 1,000 acres of sugar beets this year, said 75 percent of farmers joining the strike would effectively halt the nation's food supply. We will not plant crops next year, he emphasized. Asked how farmers would live if the strike went for any length of time, Marble said in other areas where the strike has already begun, bankers have told farmers they would rather loan them $30,000 to see them through this movement than loan them $150,000 to operate and find the farmer cant repay it the next year. They cant afford to reposess every piece of farm equipment or acre of land in America. They have to support the farmer, he said. the Teichert Family, Brigham Young university and the LDS church curators office, as well as private collectors, the Brigwill ham City Museum-Galler- y present an exhibit showing examples of the various facets of Mrs. Teicherts work.

Buck he needs home Meet Buck, he needs new home This is Buck (pictured above), a mixed collie who is now at the Brigham City pound, waiting for a new home. He stayed behind the Red Barron temporarily and was so. kind and gentle and friendly that all the children loved him. The played with him from daylight until dark, reluctantly letting school interfere. Some nights he slept in a big round ball in the middle of the lawn of a vacant home,' and other times by the home of one of the young boys. The children already have dogs so they couldn't keep Buck. They gave him his name, but hed be willing to change his name for a new owner. Some of the children who are anxiously hoping for a new home for their friend are: Annie Folsom, Jamie Fail, Tod Christensen and Scott Parson. The pound is open from 4 to 5 p.m. every day, but if youll call Helen Sieg, she will arrange for the animal control officer to go with you to the pound at your convenience. Do so right away because the pound has kept him for longer than usual because the children asked them to.

While in New York, she received the commission to paint the mural in the immigrant receiving station at Ellis Island. She chose to return to the West, married her cowboy sweetheart Herman Teichert, and made a home in Idaho and Wyoming, painting and rearing a family of five children. She painted many subjects, chiefly western, Spanish, still life, and religious subjects. Mrs. Teichert painted the murals in the World Room in the Manti LDS temple, and painted a series of illustrations of the Book of Mormon, which have been recently used to illustrate articles in The Ensign magazine.
