MAY TAKE GRAVEL
PIT LEASE TO COURT
Residents of Northeast Bench
Protest to City Commission;
Final Action Deferred.

If Salt Lake City signs a lease with
P. j, Moran for the use of gravel beds
on the north bench the residents of
that portion Of the city will ask the
courts to enforce restraining order for
which they applied nearly a month
ago. This was the announcement made
last night by attorneys for the pro-
testants after they had had hear
ing before the city commission, in
which vigorous protest against the
granting of the lease was entered.
The committee Of north -benchers,
numbering about twenty. was headed
by the Rev Elmer l. Goshen. III op-
posing the granting Of the lease the
Rev. Goshen declared that it would
mean the defacing of beautiful part
Of the city, and that the people of that
part of the city would have to submit
for six years to bad roads and flying
dust every hour Of the day when teams
hauling the sand or gravel were pass
ing. He urged that the price which
the city was to receive for the lease,
5000 year, was far too low for the
damage that would be done.
Commissioner H. W. Lawrence asked
if it was not q fact that unless the sand
ana RIaEel cOuIu Ue ndu lTOih al nearby
point the cost Of public improvements
would be raised. This question brought
quick reply from the minister. He
declared that in more than one city
in the United States public improve
ments, such as street paving and side
walks, had been made at cost much
lower than that which had been
charged in Salt Lake City, and that
the material had to be hauled far
greater distance than it has to be
hauled here.
City Attorney II. j. Dininny sug-
gested that the matter be left to the
decision of the court.
Commissioner w. H. Korns moved
that the former action Of the commits
sion in granting q lease to Moran be
recopsideyed. City Recorder Noble
Warrum notified the members of the
commission that the lease had not been
finally signed, it having been held up
on account Of the action fled in the
district court. The Korns motion was
lost by vote of 3 to L.
After the conference members of the
committee who had waited on the COM
mission announced that if the commits"
sion granted the lease they would ask
the court to enforce the restraining
order applied for several weeks ago.

REYNOLDS ENTERTAINS
MANY PRETTY BLONDES
Court Stenographer Is Host for Pretty
Girls Who Answer Advertisement
Placed by His Friends.

When a decidedly pretty blonde
called on Ross II Reynolds, court stem
ographer, in the Walker Bank building
yesterday and asked for q position, he
thought nothing of it. When second
pretty blonde, even more attractive
than the first, appeared and asked him
for position he was surprised, but
when a flock of them, each seemingly
moro beautiful than any of the others,
called during the course of the day he
came to the conclusion that mistake
of serious character had been made.
Investigation developed the fact that
friends with a hobby for practical
jokes had inserted want advertise
ment in Sunday paper calling for
twenty-five beautiful blondes, for posi-
tions in a chorus; experience unneces-
sary. The joke was traced to office
associates who had been victims of
Reynolds s jokes in the past, and who
were getting even. Reynolds says that
it is his turn next. Reynolds was stem
ographer for the senate during the last
session of the legislature.

EXPERTS ARE BACK
FROM DELTA DISTRICT
New Farm Country Develop
ing Rapidly; Settlers Use
Too Much Water.

Professor l.. A, Merrill. agricultural
expert for the Salt Lake Route, and J.
Fl. Manderfeld, assistant general
freight and passenger agent for the
company, returned yesterday from a
trip through Delta and other places in
Millard county. They report crop con-
ditions promising and the enthusiasm
of the settlers on the new land TO be
undated, Speaking of the trip yester-
day, Professor Merrill said:
s.The trouble with the farmers there
is that they want 20 use too much
water on the land. Most OF them
are from Nebraska. and know practi-
cally nothing about irrigation. They
them in check until they learn that
the land does not require so much
water, and in fact is damaged ma
terially by too much, they will build
great farming district there We are
spending money and time III showing
them that more cultivation and less
water will work wonders with the land
there.
~ found one farmer who had al
ready irrigated his grain twice and was
yelling for more water. We showed him
his mistake, and he is now narrowing
the grain. Many of the farmers are
now using harrows on their grain fields
in accordance with our advice, and the
result is a perfect mulch.
"There are $50 families on the north
bench at Delta and forty-fve families
on the south bench, and $4,000 acres
of new land producing crops there this
year for the first time. About 1000
acres have been seeded down to alfalfa
this year. Four carloads of hogs, the
first ever shipped from Millard county,
were sent from Delta this spring.
GA creamery was started in Oasis
about two months ago, and its bust.
ness is increasing rapidly. The railroad
is assisting the farmers in
buying more cows and building up the
business. and as result the output of
the creamery has increased from 600
pounds a week to 1900 pounds.
