Show THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1968 PEASANT GROVE REVIEW, ELEASAnT GROVE, UfAH THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1963 State to License Advertising Signs on Highways, Freeways retary of Transportation, which will allow the State to admin-ister the control on outdoor ad-vertising signs. The Utah law and the new agreement pro-vides for control of outdoor ad-vertising along the Interstate and Primary Systems in Utah involving a 660 foot control area outside the right of way, except in zoned or unzoned commercial or industrial areas The State of Utah now has a signed agreement with the Secretary of Transportation of the United States governing out-door advertising signs, and is moving rapidly to implement it with the Utah law, so reported Henry C. Helland, Director of Highways, following a meeting of the State Road Commission of Utah. According to Mr. Helland, Utah is the tenth state to enter into an agreement with the Sec- - retary of Transportation, whic A permit is required and shall be displayed on each sign. Those signs in the zoned or un-zoned commercial or industrial areas are controlled to size and spacing and lighting under the Utah law and the agreement. Signs which did not meet the Utah law requirements as of May 9, 1967, the date the Utah law became effective, need not be removed or reloocated until Dec. 31, 1972, providing they have a permit displayed. The permit costs $2.00 initial-ly and renewals are $1.00 per year. There are no provisions for extensions of time to ob-tain them. Permits must be ob-tained at the Deparment of Highways District office, 825 North 900 West, Orem, Utah. Inventory of affected signs to-tal 8,995 and a rush for permits is expected. On the last inven-tory, there were two Utah Coun-ties, Daggett and Wayne, who do not have signs that come under the law for control. There has been a preliminary injunction prohibiting the en-forcement of the Road Com-mission's Rules and Regula-tions. According to Charles M. Pickett, Assistant Attorney General, he preliminary injunc-tion is expected to be lifted by agreement of the Utah Council of Outdoor Advertising and the Attorney General. The Utah Council of Outdoor Advertis-ing worked closely with the 1967 Utah Legislature and the Utah Department of iHghways in the passage of the law. In further explaining the law, Mr. Pickett points out that un-der he Act, key controls include sign spacing of 500 feet mini-mum along Interstate and Pri-mary highways. Size is not to exceed 1000 square feet. An ex-ception relates to commercial or industrial areas, whether zoned or unzoned, where signs consistent to the business or in-dustry can be placed on the premise or ground by the owner or operator of the establish-ment.

Farmers and Cattlemen Are Getting Help Farmers and cattlemen are acquiring needed land resourc-es by forming grazing associa-tions and obtaining financial assistance from the Farmers Home Administration, the ag-ency's Utah county supervisor, Royden V. Carter, said this week. A grazing association is com-posed of a group of family far-mers and ranchers who join to-gether to acquire and develop land to provide seasonal graz-ing for livestock belonging to its members. The non-prof- it association is owned, operated and managed by its members. Small farmers can increase their incomes, make better use of land and water resources and develop larger equity in land through use of a grazing assoc-iation. Other advantages of an assoc-iation include providing oppor-tunities to improve livestock quality, gain bargaining power in the marketplace, build more stable operations and strength-en the rural community. Results benefit the entire community, because associa-tions accomplish better use of land and water resources and provide expanded tax bases and more local buying power. Grazing associations range in size from three to eighty mem-bers, depending on the num-ber of livestock to be supported and dimensions and quality of the land. Eligible to form associations are neighboring farmers and ranchers who operate family-siz- e units. Financial and tech-nical assistance is provided by the Farmers Home Administra-tion. Additional aid often is provided by the Department of Agriculture's Soil Conservation Service and Agricultural Stabil-ization and Conservation Ser-vice. Loans are available to qual-ified borrowers for periods up to 40 years at an interest rate of 5 per cent. Information and applications may be obtained from the Utah County Farmers Home Administration office at Provo, Utah in the Federal Building, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Mon-days, only. The telephone num-ber is 374-501- 1, ext. 7307. Neighborhood Party Held Last Saturday The Neighborhood Party was held Saturday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Vida Conway. A delicious lunch was served by Mrs. Conway and Leaone Car-son. The afternoon was spent in visiting and sewing, and pic-tures were taken. Others present besides the two hostesses were Rose Rad-mal- l, Lucille Hillman, Laura Harris, Mary Loader, Stella Barton, Minnie Hall, Jan Olsen, Drucilla Smith, Deane Paulson and May Morgan. February Storms Provide Soaking For P.G. Area Two rain and snow storms soaked the Pleasant Grove area with almost an inch of pure water during the weather period ending at 6 p.m. Monday, Feb. 19. The storms began Feb. 13 and called it quits late on Feb. 18. Temperatures also did some fancy acrobatics during the 7 days. Highest was 57 degrees on Feb. 19 and lowest was 16 degrees, Feb. 15. That's a spread of 41 degrees, which should be variation enough to suit any of our younger gen-eration. Farmers and culinary and ir-rigation water officials were happy at the results of the storms. Both January and Feb-ruary had been plenty dry un-til last week's storms hit. Things look brighter now. Skies were cloudy early Tues-day morning and a light rain was falling. In fact, it had rain-ed most of the morning since midnight. The outside temperature was 44 degrees and the barometer stood at 30.0 and was falling. Continued light rain in the val-ley and snow in the mountains, was the forecast. Statistics for the week end-ing at 6 p.m. Monday, Feb. 19: Date High Low Pre.
