Quality of the northwest birds this season was unusually good, due to the rigid grading standards, plenty of cheap feed, and cold weather, which is ideal for bird development and preparation for market, said Mr. k, industrial cities in Southern Utah.

A Utah couple, both active members of the M. I. A., are shown in winter costume on skis; an orange background lends color and interest to the cover. The contents of the magazine are of equal interest. President Bryant S. Hinckley contributes another of his gripping articles about church men. This time President Rudger Clawson is revealed as humble, yet a most courageous soldier of the cross. Other articles of unusual interest are: The Great Salt Lake, by D. E.

Commits Suicide An overheated stove which resulted in setting fire to the Don Hickrn u 'home about 8:30 Wednesday momir. , caused considerable alarm and anxiety with the family and citizens. The shrieking of the siren brought many from their breakfast tables and tar lame fire apparatus was able to get a start after the fire had been quenched. The damage done to the home and a3 a result of moving furniture, resulted in a loss estimated between $100 and $150, all covered by insurance. When Mr. Hickman had built a fire in the heater, difficulty was had in getting a draft through the pipe. A portion of an old automobile tire was placed in the stove as a remedy for the condition. While Mrs. Hickman was seated near the stove, she noticed sparks falling from the ceiling, and it then discovered that the building was on fire. In the absence of telephone at the home, it was necessary for their son to ride his horse to town, more than a mile, to sound the alarm. Citizens responded and an endeavor was made to get the fire apparatus to work, due to the cold morning. Mr. Hickman and neighbors succeeded in getting the fire under control while others who had arrived on the scene early removed the furniture and household effects. The performance of the fire engine on the last two occasions, when called into service, has fully demonstrated that the city needs a more efficient fire fighting apparatus. If property is to be protected it will ue necessary to dispose of the present equipment and replace it automotive power that will meet the needs. rd Ogden. , The beekeepers will hold their convention meetings at the Hotel Bigelow-, the first session at 2:00 p. m.
