Ninety per cent of the tenants are in

with their mortgages to several diff

Oh! if the politicians, the associa-

and the farmer himself who is clam

this dreadful impediment in South

of such hurrahs as we have been

able to obtain the same goods at a
lower price than he has agreed to-
pay, then the fertilizer company will
cut their prices to level with the
prices offered the buyer, or cancels
the contract.
Heretofore the cuts in this State

were generally only about ssl,.Oo to
sl.50 per ton, but this season finds
fertilizer companies cutting their
original prices quite freely, some of
them giving rebates of from So to

This is accounted for by the
of farmers who are buying

own fertilizers. They fndit cheap

manure salts, sulphate of ammonia

QUARANTINE FOR
INFECTED HERD
Sheep Commissioners Discuss
Disease in Flock of J.
H. Dahlin.

NEGRO bacillosis furnished the chief
topic for discussion at the meeting Of
the state board Of sheep commission
ers last night, and the board decided
to use every effort at its command 10
assist in stamping out the disease in
Ucah.
So far as the board has been able to
ascertain through general reports, the
flock of J. H Dahlin, now on the range
near Heber. is the only lot in Utah in
fected with the malady commonly
called ''the lip and leg disease" 1t is
believed that the infection came from
Wyoming, and quarantine regulations
VIII be enforced strictly. The infected
herd viii be taken to Lehi, where it viii
be kept in close quarantine.
Reports made to the board indicate
that the herds of Utah are generally
free from sCabies. All herds of the
state viii be dipped before Oct. 81, and
rams before Nov. -, and the dipping
has already begun in the eastern part
of the state.
The dipping is being done under the
supervision OF a force of about twenty
state and government inspectors, who
work together. /. r. Anderson of Man
ii, j. s. Ostler of Nepm and Thomas

MANY PROTESTS
ARE REGISTERED
Citizens Object to Expense Of
Sewer LateraIS in Second
and Third Wards.

Long protests against the construction
OF sewer lateraIs in the Second and Third
wards were filed with the city council
last night. One of the chief reasons for
the protests was that the property owners
Will have to pay nearly 30 per cent more
for the work than those OF other parts OF
the city. The property owners also de-
clare they did not have sufficient time III
which to get the signatures OF all the peO-
pie who are against the extensions, and
asked that they be given two more weeks
20 complete the list This action was
taken by the council.
Tt is claimed by the property owners
that they are now having trouble paying
for sidewalk Improvements, and the addi-
tiOnal burden OF sewer laterals would be
more than many of them can bear at this
time, They asked that the matter 90 Over
for a time.
The new laterals in the Second ward
would cost about S135,000 ana those in the
Third would be about Sl10.O90. The council
put the matter over for two weeks to give
the property owners time TO make all the
protests they can and TO give the city
recorder time TO check up on them.

THERE'S A REASON IF
TAX NOTICE DON'T COME

All of the tax notices from the county
treasuTers Office have been sent broad
cast through the country, but there is
suspicion in the mind OF Treasurer
John a. Groesbeck that some property
owners may not have received them.
There is always the chance of having
them misdireted or get off wrong
through some other channel. the treas
urcr says. so If any owner of property
in Salt Lake does not receive his notice
he would delight the treasurer if he
