The Kamas cooperative, along with all others in the state, will be spotlighted during October as Utah and the nation observe Co-o- p Month. Recent expansion into bulk feed handling and bulk fertilizer storage and distribution will add to the contributions being made to Kamas VaUey agriculture. Sales at the cooperative has growm steadily from $136,000 in 1960 to $213,000 in 1966. Success of the cooperative is a reflection of its use to many resource people outside the organisation, including members of the Utah State University Extension p Heaviest contribution to in the high cattle country is the avail- farmer-patro- ns ability of high quality feed formulated for local conditions in both bag and bulk. An accelerated rate of growth is taking place at the Kamas Valley Co-o- p because personnel are selling more than farm merchandise.

These are some of the reaacross the sons why all Co-ostate are adding important new farm services and are increasing sales so rapldely.

Preston Merchant asked that a survey be made to establish which are public roads throughout the county. He suggested the commissioners get in touch with the Forest Service to see if definite right of ways could be established. Although McNeil broke away for two spectacular touchdowns and the Wildcats scored a third time and threatened several times, South Summit could not cope with Morgans speed, size and experience at Morgan Friday evening, rhe Wildcats lost, 44 to 19. After Morgan scored twice in the first quarter, Marchant slipped over for a Wildcat marker. In the third quarter McNeil ran 88 yards with a kickoff, and in the final frame, McNeil again broke away on a kickoff, this time for 81 yards. Morgans blgfullback marked the difference in the two teams, although in the closing minutes the Wildcat line came apart and several punts were blocked. It was a case of too much experience, and South Summits youngsters will be dishing it out to turn as they learn from losing. Finally!

A few days later while serving a banquet to nineteen superintendents, in walks a lady and asked if she was Margaret B. Thompson and when Margaret identified herself, the lady took the wallet out of her purse and gave it to her with everything intact. Margaret was so grateful all she could was weep. She offered the lade the money in the purse, but the lady said no! Then she tried to give her $10 but she said no! Margaret said, Well let us at least buy your gas, and the reply was still no! Lunch was the next offered but the laity refused. So, Thank You was all that could be given. This sweet little old lady had come clear from Granger especially to return the purse. Her name was Lorene Broad-hea- d. She told Margaret all she needed was to see how happy Margaret was when she received her purse.

The parents were informed as to what would be expected of their children and of them. All felt that the evening was very worthwhile and expressed their wishes to do this each year. One parent noted that in hearing the teacher present his synopsis he had the chance to note just which teachers would present a program so that it would be interesting to the student. He felt that in the future when his child discussed a class at home he would have a better understanding of the childs problems or comments because he knows the teachers method of presentation. Many parents stated they were amazed at the progressive methods used by educators of today and with the information given children in early grades. 1 didnt get that until I was in the 8th grade and my child is getting it In the 3rd was heard several times.

Salt Lake Boy Is Killed on Closed Hiway Kim Talbot, 5 years old, was killed instantly at 9:30 a.m. Saturday when the wrecker driven by his father, Robert Talbot of Salt Lake City, turned over on the new, unopened Interstate six miles east of Echo. Mr. Talbot, an employe of Bennett Ford Towing Co. of Salt Lake City was hauling in the tractor portion of a big truck. The pavement had recently been oiled, and a light rain following made the surface very slippery. The driver lost control, his truck slipped off the left side, and he was thrown clear. His little boy, an only had just unfastened his belt. He was thrown out the left door after his father, but did not clear a concrete abutment, which crushed his skull. Summit County officials again warned of the danger of using the unfinished portion of Hie Interstate. 'Drivers go right past, even around, huge signs stating that the road is under construction. This practice is dangerous, as proven by this latest tragedy. Drivers MUST stay off highways which have not yet been opened. Because the road is still legally owned by M-- K Construction until it is turned over to the Government, the fatality was not listed in the Utah statistics, which do not include accidents on private roads.

Nearly 600 persons attended the ceremony which was held under sunny skies in spite of the morning's continual rainfall. Thirteen chartered buses carrying 550 members of the National Daughters of the Utah Pioneers accompanied Mrs. Kate B. Carter, National President here for the ceremonies. The ladies visited the Henefer Moose Is Seen at Echo Pass Several people have reported seeing a large bull moose near the Echo overpass last week. Sighting of a moose near civilization is very rare, and local Fish and Game representatives Earl Bagnell states he always tries to herd them back into the hills as they can become mean when riled. The main herd of moose in this area is on the Bear River and no doubt that is where this one came from. Speculation is that he was chased from the herd by an older bull. The last moose seen around here was several years ago when one decided to attend school. He had evidently been teased a bit, and was quite mean but did no harm before being chased back into the high country. What happened to last weeks moose we couldnt find out . . . could be someone is having moose-burge- rs for dinner these days. But if you see him, dont check your bifocals or swear off the booze, hes real. Just keep your distance. Curtis Prescott Seems Viet War OAKELY (NO610) ley (AGC-- 7) man USS Mount McKin(FHTNC) Sept.
