' , Published Each Tuesday and Friday By THE POST PUBLISHING COMPANY 125 West Xhone Center St. NEPHI C. IIICKS 13 Editor and Manager Entered at the postoffice at Provo City Utahas second' class matter. Each growing season, when. the blossoms of our fruit trees begin to unfold, this valley witnesses a spring storm. - It came last1 year, and. many began the wail then that the fruit crop was a failure ; but when the harvest time rplled around, there was still fruit enough for all our home needs and hundreds' of carloads to be shipped away. That appears to be about the situation this season. We hear again, even from gome growers, that the frost has played havoc. Others again say that the buds have been suitable number for a fine yield. We feel safe in saying that with the possible exception of apricots the stone fruits are but slightly injured; a representative of this paper having made an extended investigation in the fruit section: Of course many blossoms' are nipped, but a large per cent of them can be frostbitten and yet we may get a good crop. Nothing is gained at any time by taking a pessimistic view of the commercial side of our community; and bad reports sent broadcast as to damages suspected tend to turn away buyers who are watching our crop conditions. Some times large contracts are turned elsewhere on mere adverse reports. There should, it seems to us, at least be no advertisement of a bad condition that has not been determined beyond doubt. In the case of the fruit buds nqw, happily most of them have not been advanced far enough by the late spring weather for! much damange to have been wrought Here is hoping that the last spell of wintry weather is past for this season and that another rich fruit crop may be our good fortune.

There is a general feeling of pride exhibited in Provo each year when the cleanup signal is sounded and the people respond to the call with their rakes and shovels. seem to some that a time It may peculiar should have to be designated when - we are to dean up, and yet when it becomes a community effort it evolves into a movement to get all to do the same thing at the same time with the result rr that those who would not otherwise recognize the importance of cleaning up are inspired by ex-Pj- c " , i e. : l, The people of this community have taken much pride in working hand in . hand with natures bounteous resources to the end that Provo shall be known as the Garden City of the West. Aside from any popularity that might be gained a dty of neat and , beautiful surroundings contributes to the happiness and of those who live within its borders. We therefore appeal to the citizens of Provo to join in the cleanup activities of the coming week.1 Not only do we suggest that every one participate in the cleanup, but that all join in beautifying the city by planting an Arbor day tree, and by trimming the trees that our forefathers planted.

Many towns, particularly those with grea manufacturing plants within them where sof ; coal is burned, are soon made to take on a dingy appearance. Manchester, England, we are told, is one of that class where, when a test showing the result of soft coal smoke was made it was shown that on a day following a snow storm when it was possible to measure the ash deposit, it was figured that one ton of soot and ashes falls on each square mile in that city during a single year. If such'XConditlon'were prevalent In Provo we might expect to find dingy homes, but where a coat of paint will last for years it would hardly seem that we can afford to have a town that looks faded and grey. A little paint at this season of the year would go a long way in giving life to our beautiful city.
