Show AAV V m Ifliil K$ MirB Citizens Urged To Mss branch of the Utah Poultry Producers, Inc., is proving a busy place at present and incidentally the farmers are reaping a benefit that in previous years was not available. Pert Willardson, who has the management of the Gunnison branch of the institution, announces that a cartload of eggs is being shipped from this point every week. The car that went ouc last Saturday brought the total up to 18 and is more thus far than the entire shipment from the state of Utah last year. A study of the statistical reports from the state farm bureau and the data gathered from the railroad records show that only seven carloads of eggs were shipped out of the state last Tlie Gunnison season. Not alone is Gunnison proving an important part in supplying the big shipments, hut other points about state where the association has ship- ping headquarters, is aiding in bringing the shipments to a high standard. The association, according to statistics, has shipped a total of 30 carloads of eggs out of the state. Since March 25th nearly ninety cars have been shipped from the state and sold The associaon the local markets. tion, though young yet, is looking forward to the second year of business and it conservatively estimated that next seasons business will be more than doubled in the egg business. In addition to eggs the association will branch into the broiler business. Some two weeks ago a full carload of the luscious spring chickens were shipped to outside points. There are many thousands of young chickens in this valley, resulting from conservative culling of flocks, that have been contracted for by the association and within the next few weeks it is thought several carloads will be shipped from this valley. The ice plant at this point has been put in commission and the cold storage is being maintained con. stantly, thus affording ample protection for the product handled by the association. Mr. Willardson is highly pleased with conditions and believes that Gunnison and the Gunnison Valley will prove a big factor in supplying eggs and poultry for export purposes. Gunnison Valley News. iisitel feat Sieged for Have you done your duty? Will your home stand the scrutiny it will be given when the state com- mittee makes an inspection for the e n campaign awards ? Are you satisfied that your city is beyond the reach of disease and contamination through the disposal and of all places? These are a few of the questions that should be weighed with the busi-ne- s men and residents of the city, because the cheif committee that will Imake the awards for the best and cleanest towns will be here for spection shortly after the first oi July. Today is the third day that has been spent in cleaning up the homes, streets and vacant lots aboui Salina. An official state yesterday: Sorry, but it is feared that Salim will not get in on any of the award; to be made by the state in the statewide clean-ucampaign. Many were out this morning anc it is to be hoped that before the offi. cials arrive that the final touches will be made that will give the citj its proper rank and at the head of the list. And there is much to dc yet. A close observation reveals the fact that there are many, many places where flies are breeding anc propogating millions of death deal-ers. A trip around the city alsc shows that there are piles and piles of old tin cans, rubbish and filth Many vacant lots are strewn with rubbish and old tin cans that not only prove a detriment to health, but are e to those who enjoy beauan ty. Hog pens, plenty of them within the- city limits, are reking with filth and an odor that is destressing and killing. And weeds there are plenty of them and a said feature i3 that in some places they are blocking the way and covering walks, Walking down the main streets of the city, too, one can see conditions that are altogether wrong with the idea as portrayed by the clean-u- p Rubbish piles, papers committee. and other debris are scattered in profusion. It spoils the looks of a city. Incidentally the burned and charred buildings at the very center of the city, greet the newcomer and all with desolation. Not only are these buildings dangerous but they are a big drawback and it is to be hoped that shortly they will be either replaced or torn down and the lots cleared of the ashes and rubbish.
