View of the erawdi who have not heeded the advice, D Your Chriatmaa Shopping Early, and are making the last wild onslaught on city department store. - If we are to believe reports the fanners worst M Js days are over. The season has been good, taking the country as a whole, even though it had an unfavorable beginning. Late harvests are redeeming early disappointments. Prices as a rule continue to hold firm and even though his dollar will buy more now than during the inflated war years, he still has to pay entirdy too much for many of the things he has to buy. But reports in the agricultural world are imthat conditions ' proved do not mean that the agriculturist is prosperous. He is still far from his goal of a good living plus 10 per cent on his investment Hes still deeply in debt, and the red flag of the auctioneer is hung out quite often in many sections of the country. A combination mortgage indebtedness of approximately twelve billion dollars has him in the hole and promises to keep him there for some time to come. Many residents here in Eastern Utah have not felt any lightening of the pressure, and discontent is heard from a goodly number. Congress is again in session and unless all signs fail, some sort of relief will be forthcoming. At least hope is high along this line, and it should by no means be shattered this time as it has in the past. The farmers have been trying to lift themselves by the bootstraps long enough. They have reached the point where consideration can no longer be denied them. STILL ANOTHER FAKE IS SQUELCHED BY OUR UNCLE SAM.

A car owner who is eo conservative that he will try to stick to the old blue plate of 1927 with white numbers will find himself play-lull- y tagged by the eopsTl There are enough plates to go around 100,000, n fact and some of them arrived ast Monday at the office of the secretary of state. Distribution over the eounter will start on January 3d. In the loading of the ear containing the plates a blueprint was made so that in the unloading they eould be placed in the order in which they will issued to applicants and rave a great deal of extra work in the motor vehicle department. ' One trouble with this country is that too many men think more of wealth than of commonwealth. Most any man can lead a successful married life if he will go ahead and pay the freight and let hia wife run the busings. NOTICE Notice is hereby given that the county rammianoners will meet on Wednesday December 28, 1927, at 10 o'clock a. m., in tlie.commiwionrra room at the Carbon county courthouwe for the punow of adopting a budget covering the expenses of Carbon rounty for the year 1928. All persons interested and present at said meeting will be given an opportunity to be heard in the matter. ELIZABETH HADLEY, The postoffice department has forbidden the at Price, Utah, December 17, use of the mails to those advertising instruments FiratDated pub., Dec. 10 ; last Dec. 23, 1927. guaranteed to locate oil, gas, diamonds, gold, silver or other buried treasure. And we cannot help wondering why such an order wasnt issued long ago. Thousands of people have been separated from their money by vendors of mineral rods and worthless contraptions sold under alluring names and claims. Such a thing as a dip needle or miners compass is used with a certain degree of success, but they are very complicated and one must be able to make mathematical calculations to use them. Personally, we do not know of anyone around here being Btung on the old divining rod fake, but we suspect there have been several in days gone by. However, that is so much water over the wheel. The thing worth while now is that no one is going to be duped by these advertisements in the future, because Uncle Sam has ruled that newspapers accepting such cannot circulate through the mails. MUCH BETTER THAN A WEEKLY LETTER TO THE DISTANT ONE. . As a general rule most of us are somewhat lax when it comes to letter writing. We have friends or relatives in other sections of the country we want to keep in touch with, and we know, they are anxious to learn of the happenings in the ol( home town. But somehow we cant bring ourselves to write to them as often as we would like to. And there is. a happy solution and an inexpensive one. Why not take just a moment to subscribe for the home town newspaper to be sent to some former resident during the coming year? It will do all and more than a weekly letter would,' because it will carry much that ydu might not think to write. It will be as regular as clockwork and a reminder of your thoughtfulness. If there. is anything that would make a friend or relative in a distant part of the country as fine a Christmas, gift we cant think what it is. For it is one that not only pleasure, but that keeps friend or relative constantly reminded of you. gives-servic- GREAT POWER OF THE SAVINGS HABIT BY CHRISTMAS CHECKS. It ought not be difficult for any Carbon coun ty resident to see a fine example of the power of the saving habit in the distribution of chtyVn to millions of Christmas dub members in the cities and small towns of this country. It is estimated that pretty dose to a dollars will be paid out in the next ten days or so in sums ranging generally from $52.00 to $550. And this entire amount was saved, mind you, in nickels and dimes. That vast sum of money is to be put into circulation during the holiday season, so it is not difficult to see what effect it will have on merchandising throughout the country as a whole. It will make a happier Christmas, too, for those who bdong to these dubs. But the best thing about it is that out of the who get checks, many thousands will, having learned how easy it is to save, start permanent accounts. And thats what, insures the future half-billi- prosperity of this country rainy days on ahead. rIPAT. on saving for those Two Jewish peddlers named Wise, while eamped at E. L.
