When he was stricken he was taken to the Salina hospital and every' attention given in the hopes of checking the malady in its infancy, but it became known that the disease was deepseated and the malady fajled. to respond to the scientific treatment. In the death of Ferd Mattsson, Salina loses one of its most prominent young men. He was a favorite in the younger social set and a leader of his classes in school. He was chosen president of the sophomore class of thff North Sevier high school at the opening of the school sejason and was achieving wonderful success as the class leader. Always deeply interested in his school work and with his clean record as a young man, Ferd will be sadly missed by his hundreds of companions. He was a lover of nature and his delight was to be out in the great open "spaces, hunting and fishing and studying nature and enjoying it tothe fullest extent. In athletics he was an enthusiast and boasted of building his body and health to the highest standard. Ferd was kind and gentle and when he made friends he kept them always and at his home he was loved and adored for his manly ways. Ferd would have been fifteen years next Monday, having been bom December 21, 1910. He is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. B. E. Mattsson, one sister, Nelda, and five brothers, Howard, Stanley, Wendell, Whitney and Duane. Funeral services will be held this afternoon at one thirty from the Second ward chapel.

Shoemaker, of the foresters of- fices at Washington, D. C., was present and presided at the several meetings. Representatives $f the Great Basin Experiment station, and each of the six western states forest districts were "in attendance and throughout the meeting was important and interesting. The feature of the convention was tha. bringing of the technical and administrative grazing officers into closer unity of action, and standards general in character were adapted for application in all of the western national forests, leaving much freedom to individual districts in the handling of the local problems. Methods of. conducting range management, in accordance with accepted scientific principles, wer discussed in detail. Supervisor Mattsson and Ranger Tangren took an active part 'in the convention and presented the view point of supervisors and rangers, respectively, of Southern Utah. At this time of the year the annual question of whether cutting Christmas trees is a waste or not becomes acute. According to District Forester R. H. Rutledge, the cutting may be either the best kind of forest conservation or the worst kind of waste, depending upon how it is done. In a fully stocked forest there are always many hundreds Of young trees per acre, only a few dozen of which have reached maturity. The rest drop out in the struggle for existence Trees cut in such forests as these where the youngsters are standing too thick, helps the others to make better growth by giving them more light and space, while it serves to put the smaller fellows to a good use. On the other hand, there' are in the Intermountain Region, vast areas of brush land into which the timber trees are spreading slowly and with great difficulty. In such places are scattered trees of beautiful shape and of good Christmas tree size. To cut .these is the worst kind of waste, for it is their mission to grow to maturity, and in turn scatter seed so that the worthless brush lands may be slowly d into valuable forests. The choice of the trees that are takn, therefore, makes all the difference in the world. From the point of view of the Christmas tree user, it is unfortunate that the trees which are taken from overly dense stands to improve the forest conditions are lopsided and not nearly as pretty as the symmetrical trees which grow in the open. .The Forest Service is askingno-'bod- y to go without a Christmas tree, but if you want to place yourself on the side of conservation and not of d waste, prove it by buying a .tree,. .says District . Forester R. II. Ruthledge. The poor side 'can always be put in the corner. trans-forme- fre-aunt- lop-side- Monroe. February 12 Bicknell vs. Salina, at Salina.

Gates. - . ly Postmaster General Ms Dairymeu Cooperation Two If Postmaster General New has his way about it, Christmas Day this year is going to be the biggest and the best for all the employees of the postal service and especially for the letter carriers. He has issued orders to postmasters throughout the country that their offices will be closed all day Christmas except for the dispatch of special delivery letters and parcels and special handling letters nnd parcels. In order that the vast army of carriers and clerks may enjoy Christmas Day to the fullest extent with their families and friends, the cooperation of very man, woman and child in the United States will be necessary. Under the leadership of the Postmaster General, a campaign is now under way throughout the country to instill into the minds of elverybody the necessity for shopping and mailing early in order that there will be as little congestion at the post offices as possible during Christmas week and in order that both the sender and receiver of gifts and remembrances may reap the happiness that is contemplated by such an exchange of presents. Once more the Post Office Department urges the American public to do its Christmas shopping and mailing early. If the shopping is done now the buyer gets just what He or she wants and If the gift is mailed in time it is sure to reach its destination in plenty of time before Christmas Day. ever-faithf- ul CONCERT TO BE GIVEN Plans are being arranged . ajfti a holsplendid program p.Tpaggaj-Toriday week concert to fa held at the Presbyterian chapel next Tuesday evening.

Caine, in charge of the work in dairy husbandry. This two weeks course will not take the place of the regular dairy school course. Instead, it is intended for those who have taken a longer course in dairying and. who desire to return for a short time to brush up on special lines of work and for those who have not attended a special dairy school, but who have had practical experience in creamery and cheese factory work and who desire to receivd help in solving some of their problems, says Professor Caine. This course will meet the special requirements of those in attendance and, consequently, will be more flexible than, the Tegular dairy course. Special arrangements will also be made to accomodate those who are interested in ice cream ipanufactur or market milk. An extensive teaching force has been arranged to take chaige of the short course, including, besides Professor Caine, Walter R. Dally, expert in dairy manufacturing, Wilford Cole, instructor in dairy manufacturing, Dr. R. L. Hill, professor of chemistry, Dr. Ezra Carter, assistant .professor of bacteriology,. W. E. Thain, assist-'aprofessor of accounting, W. W. Owens, assistant director of the extension service, and 'Emil Hansen, landscape architect,, all of the College faculty and H. R. Lochry and S. J. Pearce, experts in dairy manufacturing of the United States Western Dairy Division. khort In discussing the special course in dairying, Professor Caine said: Demonstrations and actual practice characterize the work but lectures will be given on such topics as the feeding .and care of dairy cattle, the production of clean milk, bacteria in relation to the changes in milk, determining the fitness of milk for cheese making, the chemistry of cheese factory milk', creamery and accounting methods of , paying for milk, and the marketing of dairy products.
