Bigelow, resident of the Weber River Water E tors' association, that water is now being stored in the Echo reservoir and that the water will be available for irrigation during the present season. It is only through the persistent efforts of President Bigelow that the water is being stored at this time, before the impounding dam has been completed. The ' amount being stored will be 10,000 acre- - feet. The snow fall in the mountains last winter was very light, and there is every indication that irrigation water from former sources will be exceedingly short This addition of 10,000 acre-feof water will be a d to farmers taking water from the Weber river, and, incidentally will maintain the flow of money Into Ogden business houses. et god-sen- Poultry Association Going Into Milling K?;? it s fj S'? The Utah Poultry Producers' Cooperative association is building a "huge All feed mill in Salt Lake City. poultry feed for members of the association will be manufactured at the new plant This plant will be equipped with the most modern, feed grinding and mixing machinery known, to manufacture this feed for the association members." The above quotation is taken from a free publicity bulletin issued by the association and presumably sent out to all the newspapers of the state. The proposition to live and let live does not seem to receive consideration. Not content with dealing in poultry products, the association has decided to go into the milling business, we presume with the intention of furnishing all the chicken feed possible to members of the association. Perhaps the association is wise in taking this step, and perhaps it is making a mistake. If its milling enterprise is successful, it will be one of the first ever heard of where operated under the conditions prevailing . i ; in - Utah. There are millions of dollars invested in milling in Utah, and these mills are meeting national competition. . Their products are sent out all over the nation. The milling industry has helped the poultry industry, and the poultry industry has helped the miller.- Neither can benefit by going it alone; neither can take it all Those who try single track operations generally come out the little end of the horn. But why argue the question? A few months will tell the tale and another chapter of industrial history will have been written. - S'. ll1 ; I Handicap to Wealth and Population The census which has Just been completed, the results of which are gradually being announced, will be a revelation to all those people who have not kept themselves informed concerning 'the conservation policies of the federal government. The people will find that, despite the enormous natural wealth of the Rocky Mountain region, the increase in population during the past ten years has been but slight. They will also find that it is only in the cities that any material growth has been made. They will find that the region has not grown in proportion even to its birth rate. The reason for this condition is plain to those who have given sideration to the federal land policies of the past thirty years. Through these policies the natural wealth of the Rocky Mountain region has been withdrawn from the people and conserved for posterity. It is hoped that these conditions will be made plain at the convention of the governors of states, which will be held in Salt Lake City next month. These men, these governors of states where the people own all there is on the land, all that is under the land, all that borders on lakes and rivers, should be made to understand the handicap under which the people of this region are laboring. This question will come up in the governors convention when the matter of giving the surface rights to public lands to the public land states is under consideration. These surface rights to mountain and desert lands is in fact more worthless than the hole in the doughnut. Eastern governors should be made to understand how fortunate is a commonwealth that had for the birthright of its citizens all the coal, all the oil, all the gas, all the stone, all the lead, all the copper, all the timber, all the water power, and all everything and anything within the survey of the land for which their deeds called. The land policy of these United States in vogue before the doctrine of national conservation was adopted made the United States the most prosperous country in tho world, and why it should have been changed can not be accounted for by any line of logical reasoning. There is no reason why the general government should constitute itself a trustee or guardian of natural wealth in the west than there was in the east. The people of the east made the most of liberal land laws, and the people of the west, who, after all, are mainly only eastern people transplanted to the west, were doing just v & the same when their prosperity was curbed by the "conservation" doctrine. The question for the governor of Pennsylvania, and other states of like wealth and population to answer is: "What would be the condition in their states if all the natural wealth of their states, the wealth which has been truly conserved by turning it to beneficial use, if the doctrine of conservation, as it is now applied, bad been applied?"

The hostility of the caged animal, forever on its guard, was always a dominating characteristic of the late tempestuous star of Rain" and other plays. Edward Doherty, writing of the Eagels spectacular star, quotes Miss as having said to a friend: M You want people to like you. Why? Its fatal. When they like you, they think they have the right to tell you how to say your lines, how to dress, how to fix your hair. If you hate people they will let you alone, give you your own way. And you must have your, own way, or you are only one of the mob. You cant imitate anybody and be anybody. Hate makes the world go round, not love. You hate poverty, and overcome it. You hate ignorance and stupidity, and rise above it. You hate people, and stay yourself. You are original. You stand out. She had many lovers," continues Mr. Doherty, but no great loves. There was no passion in her. There was a spirituelle, an unphysical quality, in the love she felt for any man. There are but few who knew and understood her and she was content with that And to those few she was not only tho greatest actress, but also the most courageous spirit and the finest woman." , Amos n Andy Demand Privacy When Acting " PMMWNMW In presenting their famous characters ou the stage of the worlds imagination, Amos V Andy, the supreme entertainers of the air, demand pri- vacy. Amos V Andy theyre Freeman F. Gosden and Charles J. Correll in real life keep their radio technique a secret No one can watch them broadcast They probably don't want anyone to try and steal their stuff. On the other hand, Raymond Knight, known to the radio audience as Ambrose J. Weems, and probablythe most versatile mimic on the air, doesnt mind the presence of onlookers while hes broadcasting. The most interesting sight in the broadcasting . bureau is to see the Cuckoos do their stuff. Raymond Knight is the wizard who imitates every sound from a dogi tail wagging against tfre floor to the howl of a fox chased by baying hounds. Raymond Knight plays up before that loudspeaker like a man doing his act on the stage! To see his grimaces and gestures in a studio barren of illusion is ludicrous. A troupe of four imitate all the attendant noises of a fox hunt: horses galloping he does this by the old trick of hitting his lap with his hands the neighing ; of horses, the yapping of the hounds; so it sounds like a fox hunt, although it doesnt look like one. - .
