Manager stringham OF Woods Cross
Factory Says Great Loss VIII be .t
Entailed by Destruction.

& ; "a
Reports are coming in from packing
Scenters and tomato canning factories
of Utah that the frosts during the last
week have ruined the tomato crop for
this year and not more than so PET
cent of the anticipated crop VIII be
realized During the last three days
the price or tomatoes has Increased
4 To- to 20 cents and when the
disaster to the tomato crop becomes
more apparent the price will be higher
than ever before.
IL Richard Stringham, manager of the
Woods Cross Canning factory and one
of the most conservative tomato dealers
in the state, this morning made the
following statement concerning the
shortage:
Fully 50 per cent of the tomato crop
which has been handled during the last
week or is still on the vines, has been
completely ruined by the frost and not
more than so per cent of the anticipat-S
ed crop can be counted upon
This tomato shortage will cause
Gserlouc loss to some of the canning fac
tories because they have sold the
canned product at low price before they
had canned It, The price of tomatoes
is now climbing upward and they will
be compelled to buy tomatoes at high
price In order to fill their orders. We
intended TO pack / 900. 900 cans of toma-
toes this season, but now since the
8frosts have struck the crop we can
not hope to can more than half that

BUTCHERS CANNOT MOVE
OUT OF SCREENED STALLS,

1t is learned that one of the butch
ers has requested to be allowed to
move out of the screened stalls in the
city market, as he claims he kills
more beeves than the other butchers
and is hampered for want of space
DR.. Layton, the city health officer,
was spoken to in regard to the mat
ter, and very properly vetoed such a
move. AS he says, if one butcher is
permitted to move out of the
screened stalls, there can be no
grounds for prohibiting the others
from doing so. The city has Just
completed these stalls at considera-
BILE expense, for the protection of
the consumers of beef, and the au-
thorities should strictly enforce their
use.

STOCK MARKET OPERATIONS.

The news Of the application for a receiver
for the Chicago Great Western Railway Com
pany had depressing influence the stock
market yesterday, although it had not been
expected; for it gave rise to predictions that
similar action might be expected in the case of
one or two other railways, these rumors being
made the basis for a considerable selling move
ment. The impression also gained strength
early in the day that extra dividend would
be declared by the Northern Pacific directors,
and when the announcement that only the
regular dividend had been declared another SELL
ing movement set in which extended throughout
the list. Northern Pacific itself going down to
1195s, from which level it rallied to 121A at
the close, a net loss of 7s points Erie and

at net declines of rs to u points and Southern
Railway preferred losing rs points Missouri

during the morning touching 1929 at one time,
