They found that .hey would not be using any school books all day longl Instead they would do ' x ' T-'-k' -'- , y science, reading math, puzzles, games and other school subjects entirely from the Deseret News Thuy found teat newspapers had a great variety of .nformation, and that they were Fun, too' County men named to State Advisory Boards Third District Congressman HowNielson has appointed two men from the Salina area to serve as members of two of his advisory committees Appointed were Brad Johnson, an Aurora cattle rancher, to the Agriculture Advisory Committee, and Nad Brown, to the Labor Management Relations Committee. Their appointments will run through December of 1986. As members of the committees, the two will advise Nielson on pending legislation in their respective areas. They and other committee members will study various bills, summarize their pros and cons, and will then come to the quarterly meetings prepared to advise Nielson regarding the legislation. I found during my first term that advisory committees were of tremendous help as I sought to make decisions on complicated bills. Nielson explained Very few issues in Congress are strictly black and white Most are extremely complex and most have far reaching complications Nielson adds that he asked people who are recognized in their fields to lend their experience and their knowledge of current conditions to assist in his decision-makin- g process, adding that he relies on people who have spent a lifetime getting the kind of experience that is often necessary in making decisions about complex legislation. Nad Brown, Public Relations Manager for Southern Utah Fuel Company, told the SUN that Congressman Nielson wants to be uj d.s in.inv people from all walks of life as possible, and by appointing area people to these Boards, he can become acquainted with the wants and needs of the Grassroots population of Utah. The Board meets periodically to discuss issues that may be pending before the legislature We look at it - react to it give our advice and criticism as well as suggestions, to those who will later make the final decisions, said Brown The Committee is a cross section of business and individuals throughout the state According to Nielson, this input helps him be better able to represent the majority of the people in the way the people would have hum- him do it omy. Arno Jensen explained that government should get out of the farming business. He explained that in the long run farmers end up paying for their own supports. Not living within affordable guidelines was the reason he gave for many farmers being in financial trouble today. He said that small farmers usually buy a piece of equipment only when it is actually needed and can be afforded. The big boys buy because it's new, and ESI Td According to statistics the Dairy Industry is Farm Utah Bureau, the by its life. for Other areas of literally fighting are struggling too, but farming and ranching DAIRY INDUSTRY WOES: A 1 1I v.Wt it) S'-li- e Prices are low, expenses are high! Its hard to make ends meet, he said. Malmgren stated that for years the government has been buying and storing farm surplus, and is now cutting back. This action hurts farmers. He feels that import regulations in other countries limits how much they can bring in, and hurts the farmers. Government is heading in the right direction, he said, referring to the federal government decision to discontinue supports. It is hard to suit everyone, but it is necessary that we live within our budget. Tim Christensen said price supports were bad for farmers, as well as the taxpayers who must support them. He said it would be better for farmers to set up their own marketing system and get the government out of the picture. Christensen was concerned with the amount of agricultural imports coming into the United States. There is too much coming in, he said, referring to the sheep industry. As for the future, he feels that farming is just as secure as any other job. People have to eat, he said.

He said present sewer charge of 18 per month should pay for the planned expenditure, along with the present treatment plant liabilities This is possible because of the annual savings on maintenance and wages that would not be required with the new lagoon system These savings would amount to about 540.000 a year. Residents of Salina would be required to pass a bond election for their share of the project expenses, wl I f - (a a tof are questioned Dwight Malmgren felt price supports had helped some farmers a little, but said that even with price supports on certain grains the I tha (of Federal subsidies -- ' I n 0 (Tiuid lagoon jicm Tfic 10 projwMl !o us the wa'.cf for in Lne irrigation jjurpan- - were on hit priority list, but because eg higher annual maintenance and operation cast tup to 23 percent) he fell the total evaporation, three lagoon system was best for the City Jones pointed out that the total containment system would be the most economical, most environmentally sound, easiest and least costly to operate, and would have the ability to handle the peak Hows from industrial sources and future growth loads. The proposed site of the total containment lagoon system is located about 1500 feet north of the Dennis Crane residence, next to Salina Creek. Mayor Grant Stubbs explained that the site is far enough north of the City that with prevailing winds from the southwest there should be 1 f UtM-l- J ard While farmers in this area prepare their ground and animals for the upcoming agricultural season, Congreses and the President are deciding the fate of farm subsidies and price controls. In what President Reagan has classified as a huge budget buster farm bill, he said that if Congress passes it he will veto the measure and turn it back to the Congress and Senate, where there likely are not enough votes to enact it. Congressman Howard Nielsons office states that the Farm Bill is an Eastern and larger farm support bill, with little effect on the smaller acreage farms in Utah. Nielson voted against the bill for the same reasons the president will reject it too high a price to pay for supports that government should not be involved in anyway. Nielsons representataive stated in Gunnison last week that Nielson felt reducing the deficit would ultimately reduce interest rates which would help farmers the most in the long run. In talking to farmers and ranchers in the area, they overwhelmingly felt government should get out of subsidizing farmers. Most felt farmers could do better negotiating for themselves, rather than letting government support certain kinds of farmers at the expense of others. Many of those talked to felt that interest rates were the number one problem, and the future depended on whether farmers could afford to pay high interest on a farm producing minimal or no profits. f , r Stutln iatfd that tt nr plant ! eiiJ.XJ.Cl 1 & & jajmrfat at tiijiMirtjifK't and ojtrf atioti tfifUJtTij jo run tJ plant tjut I t! o w annual , lor a total of W nh ihi projicnal contain-mm- JUfktt mmhi k .nvtc AA'Af M ri ro! rrr aba Jonr faiwcd I he !o!al t In ad S.Ucuri to d mamtcnanrcrt!
