Mr.. Smith headed big delegation of
Logan church members to Salt Lake
and yesterday expressed himself as we'll
pleased with the results OF the confer
ence to date. Cache stake, he said, is
prospecting and is doing better than it
has for years. Mr.. Smith is in the
wholesale produce and cold storage
business in Logan, and he talked of
prevailing prices of produce and Of the
scarcity OF butter, eggs and cheese. He
said the produce men were commence
ing to put eggs In cold storage, at a
figure as high as last year, and some
higher, and that, from his point of
view. there would not possibly be a
material price reduction for some time
to come. The scarcity of produce IS re-
sponsible for the high prices. he said.
The farmers who in the past, he said,
raised wheat by the trainload, are now
growing sugar beets and alfalfa. Two
cheese factories have been started in
Logan, and despite this, the shortage
continues. OF the shortage In general
Mr.. Smith said that the United States
today is supplied with only quarter of
the turkeys IL annually desires.

No better evidence of the faith and
sincerity of members OF the Mormon
church is had than I'm the fact that hun
dreds OF farmers are in attendance at
conference. who came TO Salt Lake only
after hardships OF the worst nature. In
the outlying districts trains are tied I'D
and roads in many instances almost
impossible, yet these sturdy veterans
put aside their businesses and have
made the trip to Salt Lake, so as to
receive the Inspiration and good which
the annual conferences bestow upon the
people.
Most OF the conference visitors will
devote today to shopping and renewing
N
to their homes until Thursday. Ineom-
ing trains continue TO bring a great
many people to the city, but the vast
army of conference visitors had ar
rived by Sunday night and early yes
terday.
