The contest started about the
middle of March (1914). Each
town organized a committee of cit
liens who outlined and directed the
campaign. Provo, a town of 10000
population, selected a committee of
so. A captain for each of the $50
city blocks was also appointed. By
centrally chosen street the town
was divided into two competing sec
tions. From the citizens of each sec
ton doctor and layman were
chosen, constituting a committee of
four judges.
When resident finished cleaning
up, he notified the judges that his
premises were ready for inspection.
The judges scored his premises on a
possible basis of 80 points. Ii he
scored rs points he was given a red
or blue button, according to whether
he belonged to the red or the blue
army. The army receiving the great
er number of buttons prevailed. In
Lehi prize of $25 was given the
winning side. This local compet-
ton was the stimulant to prepare the
town against competing towns.
The system of scoring as was used
locally was employed by the state
wide judges in scoring the towns in
the final contest, excepting that five
points were reserved for sanitation
of school houses and other public
buildings and five points for vacant
lets, making the highest possible
score for a town, as a whole, 100
points.
OF the possible 100 points, Is were
devoted to sewage, 15 to stables, 10
to garbage disposal, 10 to water
supply five to public buildings, five
to the marketing of food, five to the
presence of flies Cor better, absence
of them, five to house sanitation.
To the aesthetic as distinguished
from the sanitary aspect of the scor-
IL the remaining points were deyot-
ed, namely, to the condition of
streets, parks and alleys; towns and
flower gardens, vacant lots and
fences.
The towns fell into six classes,
from A to F inclusive, depending on
the population. Salt Lake City and
Ogden alone constituted class A.
Manti, a town between 1900 and
$500 population (class d. received
the highest score.
T. b. Beatty, M. D., secretary of
the state board of health, states that
the campaign reduced the death-rate
throughout the state.
Surely here are suggestions which
we might we'll follow. The plans for
the campaign might be changed to
suit circum stances, but in general we
could follow the lead of Utah. And
why not attempt to make it a state
affair or perhaps better, an Inland
Empire competition. We would sug-
gest that the Chamber of Commerce
inaugurated the movement.-Con-
tributed.

Senator Jonathan Bourne.-There is
far too much despotism in all the fed.
eral departments and bureaus. For
several years have been fighting the
tendency to confer more power on
the bureaus of the government. but
only in recent months have | found
much response from public men. But
few observe the great danger into
which we are drifting. Press cen.
sorship is a form of bureauracy that
comes home to the publisher but he
has not much occasion to note the
despotism existing in other fields OF
enterprise. Liberty of the press is
essential to popular govrnment, yet
1t is no more important to the indi.
vidual than the protection OF his prop
erty when thtat property is his means
OF obtaining a living. Strengthened
and encouraged by the power they
already have. the bureaus can be
curbed only by vigorous protest from
the people and the press OF the coun.
try against laws comforting discre
tionary power.

kafir. milo maize and feterita-would
be darfted into commercial use for
bread making instead of being merely
fodder and grain for livestock and
poultry. In the old world kafir corn
is now employed to large extent for
food for the inhabitants. First 1t was
used as flour for the making Of
pancakes and muffins. but later on
It was mixed with wheat flour and
made into bread. The flour OF the
kafirs has but very little gluten
and is mixed with wheat flour in or
der to obtain the sticking or adhesive
quality necessary to the rising of the
dough. The quality of kafir. milo and
feterita is pretty much the same. and
one grows about as well as another
except that kafir is not quite SO early
in maturing in Colorado as are the
other two and hence is more likely
to be caught by frost.
