Although ar.telope have been seriously depleted y predatory animals, now that better control has been initiated they ara again increasing. The increase in mountain sheep from the 12 introduced on the National Bison Range, Montana, in 1922 to about 50 in 192G, shows what can be expected when these splendid game animals are accorded proper protection. Buffalo, elk, and other animals have increased to such an extent on this preserve that during the year it was found advisa-l- e to dispose of 66 buffalo as meat, and 7 were shipped alive to public parks, while 388 elk were sold to a grazing and breeding association in Massachusetts to relieve the overCig-gn- Urge Special Study Clubs for the Older Boys On the Farm Mild Weather to Leave Ranges Bare, Says Meteorologist Utah ranges sre becoming bare according to the announcement issued by J.

Beal, president of the San Pete county farm bureau, was elected president of the state farm bureau at the closing session in Salt Lake City last Saturday night. This session of the organization wgs filled with the adoption of a number of resolutions which has to do with the importance of the farmer's of Utah. Among these resolutions were: Severing relationship with the Utah Taxpayers' assoc- stion; a suggestion to the state legis lature to make milk the offieial beverage of the state; favoring legislative enactment restricting land ownership in Utah by Orientals, and a resolution deploring the lack of facilities at the state fair .for tha promotion of Junior farm bureau exhibits. Suitable buildings for the housing of the work of the junior bureau was asked for. The new president succeeds Martin P. Brown, of Weber county, who filled the unexpired term of Epnriam Bergeson. Leslie L. Bunnell, of Utah and county, was elected M, S. Winder wat secretary and treasurer. The new members of the executive committee are: Mrs. Mabel Lougey, of Tooele; Joseph Holbrook, of Syracuse, ana Harry Parker, of Wellsville. Resolutions thanking former Presidents Bergeson and Brown for their work for the bureau were unanimously adopted. The resolution which severed the relations of the bureau with the taxpayers association was as follows: Whereas, the Utah State Farm bureau has heretofore affiliated with the Utah Taxpayers' association, and whereas this association refuses to consider the equitable adjustment of :he tax burden among the people of the state, therefore be it resolved: 1. That a tax committee be made a permanent part of the state farm bureau organization. 2. That tha Utah State Farm bureau withdraw affiliation with the Utah Taxpayers association.'' The meeting adopted a resolution to tha effect that the legislature should pass a law making it mandatory upon the state board of equiliza-tio- n to assess public utilities at the same amount as the valuation set by the utilities commission for ratemaking purposes. Grades for milk and cream, adoption for a model milk ordinance sponsored by the Childs Health Association of America, passage of a severance tax, relief for farmers who pty excessively high rates for pumping irrigation water, amendment of the mine tax law to the end that the multiple is increased from S to 5 per cent of their net proceeds, and an increase in the tariff on onions ara also included in the resolutions. crowded condition.

When weather conditions along the New mail route are favorable, insuring the arrival of mail in New York early the next morning, a day's interest can be saved by sending securities by air mail. This sometimes amounts to large sums. It is the practice of business houses in Chicago to call up the weather bureau each afternoon to learn what the ts are. If unfavorable, the se curities are sent by ordinary fast mail, as this is more dependable in bad weather. The practice of delaying taking out fire insurance on wood stored in forests in the iar west when weather rain is reports show another case in which saving days means saving dollars. In this region there is a rainy and a dry season. Split wood stored in the forest takes a high rate of fire insurance in the dry season, but is not in danger in the rainy season. Some years the rainy season ends comparatively early, and in others, late. When the weather reports show that the rains are continuing later than usual in the forests, there may be a corresponding delay Ip taking out insurance with very little risk, and considerable savings in premiums are possible.
