Show SALINA, UTAH, FRIDAY, JANUARY 9, 1925 VOL. 7, Coiii Jury Comm Souliers llaioed Afnltarist Prosjerity Says D. H. su- Whitenburg, agriculural perintendent for the Gunnison Sugar company, returned last Friday from his vacation trip to Denver and other Colorado points. Mr. Whittenburg, in addition to enjoying a splendid Christmas holiday, attended to some important business matters and incidentally familiarized himself with the sugar beet situation in Colorado. Utah and the Gunnison Valley were not the only sections that suffered a sugar beet shortage during the past summer, said Mr. Whittenburg. Through the Holly section and in other beet growing sections the crop showed a lower percentage by far in production than any place in Utah and the sugar production in Colorado does not compare at all with that of the Utah factories. While Colorado was hard hit, the growers there are not in the least discouraged and are planning on a big acreage during the coming summer. They are of the belief that 1925, with the unusual snowfall and assurance of plenty of water for irrigation purposes, that a bumper crop will result and to this end many of the growers there will increase acreages and plan to retrieve losses sustained by the drouth during the past summer. Mr. Whittenburg stated that business generally throughout the big centers of Colorado and particularly in Denver, showed marked signs of stability and that with the dawning of prosperity the west was sure to take a step forward in agriculture, mining, stockraising and all classes of business during 1925.

Of course if like do not you your town1 you would not live in it and if you would see it grow and prosper you would give it every bit of your moral and financial support. Thats perfectly natural with a and loyal supporter. One of the essentials in keeping your town going ahead and growing is the undivided support of every citizen within your city. Your merchants and all are supporting your schools, your churches and are endeavoring to upbuild the The merchant needs your support and you community need his assistance in attaining the highest standards in schools, business and churches. Then give that support he is justly entitled to buy from him. Mail order houses are getting too much patronage and are giving too little towards the support of your town. What do the lare mail order houses, where thousands -- of- dollars go each year, do towards maintaining your highways, paying taxes, supporting your schools and churches? Do they lend any aid in times of charity or are they an aid in your community. budding? Does any of the money you send to them come back as an aid to your town? Not a cent. The money once in the coffers of the big institutions, is gone forever. On the other hand your home merchants help build your churches, they help maintain churches and schools and they are always ready to give to worthy causes in your community.' And that is the reason why you should support your own home town merchants. Keep your money at home by patronizing your merchants and the money will come back to you through the natural channels of circulation. 4 day.

On Provo bench, however, peaches herries, pears, prunes and some ipricotes and apples are reported to have been damaged and peaches, apricots and cherries are believed to be hurt at Elberta. Sheep on valley oastures at Manti are not doing very well; cattle are mostly on feed. Livestock are fair at Ephraim.
