The fever is growing and already the movement is started, with many of the citizens at the home. Cans, garbage, rubbish and all unsightly creatures that mar the beauty of the homes is being cleared, and it is safe to wager that when the real campaign starts officially, a good headway will have clean-hom- e, been clean-tow- gained. There are some 1500 wide-awak- e citizens men, women, boys and girls in Salina and everyone is determined to give Mr. Filth and Mrs. Germ and her large family, a thorough trouncing and an invitation to depart to parts unknown to civilization. Evereyone of the citizens are going to don a badge, signifying their intention of aiding in the good work, and when you see one of the badges, put it down that the wearer is a booster for Salina first, last and all the time. The badges will. bear the inscription: IM GOING TO CLEAN UP, ARE YOU ? ? ? Throughout Sevier county the several communities are effecting organizations for the purpose of entering the contest in the n campaign for the trophy offered by the state farm bureau, and it is a certainty that Salina will have But it can be put down competitors. that the neighbors will have to do some real hustling if they are to outclass this city.

Mrs. Mickle- factory an agreeson is well known in Salina and offices last Tuesday night, ment was reached which, it is bethe Mrs. t neighboring country, haying will result in a greatly increased beet tonnage fot the local factory.. The proposition of siloing beets was widely discussed and after the matter had been discussed from every angle the committee representing the growers, accepted the proposition. The committee representing the growers were C. H. Childs, Joseph Christensen and Lafe Frandsen. W. Harvey Ross, president of the Gunnson Valley Sugar company, and E. L. Swalberg, field man, were in conference with the westside representatives. Under the agreement reached the beet growers are to harvest their beet crops and put) them in silo, awaiting the time for delivery at the judgment of the factory officials The grower is to make delivery of the beets and for this, providing the required acreage is planted, the company will pay at the rate of $1 per ton for delivery. If the acreage falls below a certain point, then the growers will receive only 75 cents per ton for the delivery. In previous years the sugar company has deducted 40 cents per tor as a transportation charge, and witl the new plan, and providing the re quirementg are met, the grower will not only save the 40 cents per ton but will be paid liberally for delivering his beets. It is believed that the arrangemen will prove highly satisfactory to all and especially to the grower. Ordinarily, at harvest time, the grow er is busy in getting his beets out and for this reason matters will be greatly facilitated if the crop is completely harvested before hauling begins. Siloing will give the beet9 protection from freezing and the shrink age it is shown, will not be nearly so heavy,' were the beets allowed to lay uncovered for a few days With the new contract it is stated that the growers at the inland stations will make a saving of approximately $14,000 by reason of trans porting flhe beets to the faetdry themselves. Expression already made by a number of the growers who haul to the inland piles, indicates that more than 1,000 acres will be planted tbi season.

More or less water than this reduced the yield. Flooding the field after the grain was planted but before it was big mough to shade the ground seriously lecreased the yield. Water applied as soon as the plants shaded the ground to prevent baking gave the h largest returns for each used. Later irrigations were of relatively less importance for each irrigation. The largest yield was produced with three irrigations applied when the plants had five leaves, then the leaves were in the boot, and when the grain was in full bloom. The entire results of the experiment may be obtained by addressing the Experiment Station,, Logan Utah, and asking for Bulletin No 178 Irrigation of Barley. acre-inch- es acre-inc- Fillmore, Provo; John Burley, Idaho; Owen Fillmbre, ind Mrs. W.

In a few years the Pikes Peak road through th county would be converted into finished highway.

Bran and Hunt, have announced that the caso would be appealed and being granted on a proable cause, the defendant is at liberty under $1,500 bail. Parley Anderson and Wm. Johnson are sureties for the defendant. nt LOCAL ITEMS OF INTEREST. 3 The remaining $120,000 road bond of the $250,000 voted by the citizen of Sevier county for hard surface sold roads, through the county, this week. The issue was purchased s by the Company of Salt Lake, and In the sale the-- Se- vier county commissioners established a record deal. Not only did 'the bonds find a ready sale, but a premium of $25 on each $1000' was paid by the purchasers. Through this last deal a record unequalled was established in the sale of road bond and this fact speaks volumes for Sevier county. The first sisue of $130,000 was tak-e- n by the Palmer Bond & Mortgage company, also of Salt Lake. The premium on this issue brought at the rate of $15 per thousand. Now that the bonds have been disposed of it is proposed to rush, as quickly as possible, the paving of the projects thus far designated. Thru some cause, matters have been delayed and the real cause is to be discovered. Arrangements had been to entertain the members of planned the state road commission last month, but it was necessary' to" take up matters relative to the Wendover route. The visit of the commission, however, is looked for soon and when they visit this section, it is proposed to mpre8s upon them the importance of putting down hard surface roadB and adandon the thought entirely of graveling. Utah is shouting long and loud about selling her scenic beauties. The commercial club of Salt Lake has assembled some $50,000 for exploiting Utahs advantages, whki is a mighty fine thing, said a Salina business But what is provnan, yesterday. ing the perplexing question is the fact that little or no attention is g paid to opening the gateway to Southern Utah's wonderland. Sanpete county has had deporable reads and Sevier county wants her improvements. The citizens voted for paVed through the county aqd. the g dea of offering a proposition of is going to met with mucht 'opposition.
