It Can Do Old In Such a Short Time Sheriffs Say Dovare Of A "Peddlers" - I Magna deputy sheriffs this week issued a warning to local VY x T' ' & & s vf ''o : of- residents against accepting fers from peddlers to repair roofs and stoves or door-to-do- I ' clean furnaces. They indicated that residents can be bilked out of a great deal of money and receive little in return by dealing with these people. Most of this type of peddler travels through the country. In the majority of cases they are very slick and work just under the law to make the sheriffs work ineffective," the deputies explain. There is no law that will protect people for doing poor business, nor should there be. A person should be wise enough if he wants his root fixed or his furnace cleaned to hire good, boni-fid- e people to do the same," they added. Referring to the sharpsters, the sheriff explained that 30 or 40 years ago they came through dressed in Gypsy fashion in wagons with teams. Now they are more modern, traveling in half-to- n trucks, ' '- ;- fc b:-:- : St- - the Thus, t 7;;'. Ivxr; v--T J j '' I .'1 "t!

This mosquito control work is done most effectively by a control unit, such as the local district offers. Mosquito abatement districts aim to reduce mosquito numbers, but even where they do not exist, good water management about all farms and communities can greatly aid control of these bloodthirsty insects, officials i- FINE PAINTINGS Two oU originaU by Mrs. Ben (Dixie) Jones. 3090 So. 8900 West, Magna. are exhibited, together with four others by F.

Housing Administration has surveyed all subdivisions in the Salt Lake County area with five or more houses completed in 1964, according to Mr. L. C. Romney, director. In the 99 subdivisions that set this criterion, 1,045 houses had been completed during 1964. A total of 515 houses were sold before construction had started and 890 were built speculatively. Of those built speculatively, 618 were sold and 272 remained un- Office FACT: The average life span of the city dog is 2 to 3 years longer than that of the country dog despite the dangers of the automobile.

The unsold houses were 31 per cent of the speculative construction volume. Those sold before the start of construction and those started without advance knowledge of a purchaser (speculative construction) are shown separately. For each sale price group, the ratio of the number of unsold houses at the end of the year to the total J First Security Bank.

Officials of the Magna Mosquito Abatement District remind all citizens that mosquito larvae must live in water, but water which stands less than five days, under Utah conditions, produces few mosquitoes. Irrigation water allowed to stand longer can produce great numbers of insects, and can produce a generation of mosquitoes to torment all. Besides their biting annoyance, mosquitoes also may spread the serious disease, Jr rf:--, Adult Education Art Pupils inhibit Paintings Irrigation Water MOUNTAIN isrm cearaif Mauui Gu Si wiet FUEL J |
