The local mill assuming that our Club wheat would test Xo. 2, paid $1.90 per bushel at the outset. Commission buyers, soon after, on the same assumption, paid $1.88 for the same grade. This arrangement was very satisfactory so long as the wheat found a market in, the Utah flour mills. At present the mills are buying very little grain and the wheat must move to the government terminals. For protection buyers have taken a number of samples of our average wheat, and in every instance the official test shows that it falls in class three instead of class two as was formerly supposed. According to the price list published by State Food Administrator W. W. Armstrong, No. 3 Club wheat should brin re$1.89, subject to a duction for commission. So, according to these facts a fair price for our wheat would be six-ce- $1.83. nt services Impressive funeral were held at the. First ward chapel Tuesday afternoon for Aliss Alberta Phelps, daughter of B. II. Phelps of Garland, who died at Provo Saturday morning. Bishop J. A.

She was the daughter of B. li. and Rory Elmer Phelps. Ten years ago the family moved to Garland. Four years later the death of Airs. Phelps occured and the body was shipped here for burial. .Since that time three of the children have died and been buried by the mother. The heartfelt sympathy of the many friends of Air.

The banquet was served by the ladies of the Bonneyville ward. At the reception ATayor LeRov. Dixon presided and after expressing his appreciation of Ihe manner in which the citizens had turned out to show the boys that they ace hack5 of them, he I introduced Preston G.
