Show It Utahs flewest Industrial Plants Produce Fertilizers High-Streng- th More than Salt Lake City 200 fertilizer dealers in Utah are scheduled to meet with key officials of United States Steel Coal Chemical Sales Division in special meetings on Monday and Tuesday. In two separate meetings, one in Brigham City, and the other in Provo, dealers are scheduled to hear about U. S. Steels new USS Nitrogen Products brand of fertilizers, a line of three fertilizers which has started flowing from Utahs newest industrial plant, the nitrogen products plant at U. S. Steels Geneva Works, which started on steam recently. The new plant at Geneva, first of its kind in a major steel plant in the United States, utilizes coke oven gas produced at the big steel mill, where coke is manufactured for use in the blast furnace there. Hydrogen from the coke oven gas, and nitrogen from the air are mixed in the plant to produce anhydrous ammonia. Part of the anhydrous ammonia produced at the plant is slated for shipment to Utah farmers and other western users; the remainder of the 70,000 production will go into ammonium nitrate. A third member of the USS Nitrogen Products line is. ammonium sulfate. Ammonium sulfate has been produced for many years at Geneva, but a new crystallization plant has been added to the production line, improving the quality of this product. A team of U. S. Steel sales specialists and agronomists will high-streng- th be in Utah all next week working with dealers and answering questions about the new products. Were very happy that ve will have our complete line of nitrogen products available to Utah farmers for the 1957 growing season, said Frank Adams. USS coal chemical western sales manager. Mr. Adams explained that the USS anhydrous ammonia would be shipped in tank cars in the same manner as it is handled already throughout the area. Farmers apply it direct as a liquid underground, where it becomes a gas and clings to the particles of soil, Mr. Adams explained. Ammonium nitrate is granulated in shot size for use in regular farm implements, and will be shipped in bags for convenient handling. And now that we have our new equipment operating in the sulfate plant at Geneva, were very proud to have a superior brand of that product to offer in bags, Mr. Adams said. tons-a-ye- Can Be Done There aie signs that the ranks of the bureaucratic big spenders in Washington may be wavering in the face of a tidal wave of protest from all sorts of people all over America, who have taken pen in hand to tell their Congressmen that 72 billion dollar budget must be cut. Emboldened by such unprecedented public expression, the lawmakers generally have become economy-mindeAs long ago as last month, all 23 Ohio record-breakin- g d. asserted their Representatives united stand for substantial Democrats, budget reduction. e noted for their support of high, wide and fancy spending, are competing with GOP conservatives in denouncing extravagance. President Eisenhower told his press conference that we ought to be careful about government spending, and that he had ordered a restudy of the budget.

The day before, it was revealed that Budget Director Percival F. Brundage has told a House Appropriations subcommittee that he had asked government bureaus and agencies to take another look at their appropriation needs. He didnt expect anything impressive in cuts, he said. Such unprecedented however, would suggest either that Mr. Brundage had not done his home-worin the first place, or that he was expected to give the bureaucrats a free hand in estimating their expenses. So far, so good. But the final answer is written back home whence come the protests. As President Eisenhower, himself, warned four years ago, there can be no economy in Washington if the folks back home have their hands out for federal money. For example, theres a five million recommendation in the budget for a new stadium in Cleveland, Ohio, for the Pan American Games in 1959.

Obviously Mr. Johnson never had enough experience to be able to thread a worm on a fishhook in such a way as to give head and tail, or vice versa, equal freedom of movement. And, if by any stretch of the imagination there is a tinge of truth in Mr. Johnsons statement, then millions of Americans today are making a part-tim- e career out of the business of making fools of themselves. You can call fishing a sport, diversion, or a waste of time if you belong to Mr. J's school of thought. Call it what you will, yet no student of the situation can deny that it is the most universal and diversified of ail sporting activities. Theres a type of fishing scaled to every purse and appetite from the small boy, with bent pin, wrapping twine and twisted stick, to the business tycoon who skippers a yacht rigged for tarpon and sail-fisIt costs no more than a man is able or willing to pay. A few cents will buy hooks and line, the nearest canebreak provides a pole. As lor bait, there's a wasp nest in the tree by the creek; the fields are full of grasshoppers; and the river bottoms alive with worms. And, theyre all for free. Fishing a fool's occupation? Hardly so. Fishing is the sport of contemplation; the true fisherman a master of the art of relaxation. He leaves his troubles at home or in the office every time he reaches for his fishing rod. And in this hurried, harried world, we live in today, relaxation is a luxury cheap at any price. as you nead to 90 whan you bank-by-ma- SAFE-CONVENIE- NT h.
