Show i : AS OTHERS THINK I The bill providing for the establishment establish-ment of a school for the feeble minded mind-ed in this state has been reported on favorably by the senate committee commit-tee on public institutions and passed on the second reading. It appears that the bill will soon become a law, and in such an event, Beaver should stand a fair chance of securing the institution, if the matter of economy and proper location is considered by the state. No place in Utah can offer such a desirable location as Beaver has in the Murdock academy grounds and the locating of the institution here would save the state many thousands thous-ands of dollars. A. C. Sanders in The Beaver Press. FEWER CITY GARDENS The garden hasn't supplanted the auto in the city man's affairs. The buzz wagon comes first. There are fewer gradens and no slump in auto sales. And of course, the farmer will find a good market, at a high value for his products. Gardeners are prospering. pros-pering. Truck gardening near a big city is making the man who does it a good income. Vegetables are raised rais-ed only in the country. Onions, celery cel-ery there are two things in which lately good money has been made. ' Potatoes low, because overdone. The smaller towns will continue to supply sup-ply the big city fellows with their vegetables, and supply them at a profit Frank S. Beckwith in The Millard County Chronicle.' It's almost to be regretted that Senator Borah refused to accept a place in Hoover's cabinet as Attorney Attor-ney General. With prohibition enforcement en-forcement turned over to the department depart-ment of justice where it should be, rather than with the Treasury department de-partment under Andrew Mellon, it needs someone about as dry and a? courageous as Senator Borah. With a man of his stripe at the head the country might expect a consistent attempt at-tempt to enforce prohibition. Never will the attempt at enforcement bt consistent until the man at the head is bone-dry. Warner Mitchell in The Parowan Times. TELL 'EM TO 'EL WITH 'EM It will only be a mighty short time now until we will be crowded to death with "advance agents of prosperity," who will carry with them a small book, filled with pictures of Bryce canyon, etc., stories of the surrounding surround-ing country, (which they will sell for 50c eachi if they can get it, and demand de-mand $25.00 from each and every one of our people that have anything to el the tourists and remind us that if we do not patronize this book we will starve to death, and all that Tommy Tom-my Rot. Our advice to you is to leave all that stuff alone this year, or at least wait until the Commercial club has a chance to look into the facts of the case and see just where we will get off on a lot of this stuff. It will perhaps stop a lot of this thing of allowing a lot of fellows to make a living with one of the biggest grafts that was ever perpetrated upon up-on the American public. They will be here, and the woods will be full of them this Beason. The state of Utah should declare an open season on them while the legislature is in ses- , sion. W. J. Peters in The Garfield County News. 1 VISIT ANY LIVE TOWN And you will find that the merch- ( ants of the town are good advertisers, i Not one of them, but every merchant ! of any consequence in the town is an J advertiser. ( As a result of the combined advor- tiaing, the many good, woll written J advertisements filled with prices and J good sales argument, there Is attract- ed to tho town, a regular host of buy- crs who spend tbWr money for the merchandise the mrrchants of th- community have to sell. A survey of ' the town will show that the advertis- ing is not left to one or two merch- i ants to bear the burden of the wiles J promotion while a large numlx-r of free riders nit back and attempt to ' reap the reward of their fellow's en- i terpriso. J Every one advertises. Any community that has a group ' of Rood, live ini'rclinnts who advertise with well written ads and back thorn up with the merchandise and modern J mnrchnndirilnir methods is going to ' grow and prosper nnd business will J continue to get hotter and bettor. Judicious, llleral advertising Is the J surost insurnnco ncnln.it Mow busi- j nous and town retrogression. How- ard A. Jarvis in The Magna Times. t |
