CELLAR NOT HEATED

An investigation has shown that one
reason why so many residents are in
stalllng Arcola EIot-Water Heating
Outfits, is the fact that the Arcola
Boiler can go right upstairs and does
not have to be put down in the cellar.
These Arcola enthusiasts argue
that there is no use OF wasting heat
down in the cellar--and that Arcola Is
so beautiful that II can be put right in
the liying-room or any other room,
and will heat that room itself Also.
1t will transmit its healthful hot.
water warmth to radiator in each
other room.
The fact that Arcola can be put on
the first floor is given as one OF the
reasons why 1t is so economical and
pays for itself in the fuel that it
saves" In addition to this saving in
operation NJ. s. Lott, the local steam.
filter, has pointed out that even in its
first cost completely installed,)
Arcola costs less than almost any
other kind of efficient heating plant.

SCHOOLS MUST TURN

President e. o. Howard Of the

and simple in its purpose.
"A bank does not create wealth.

ceptacle or reservoir. II Is the agency
for the community. II does not add
any wealth TO the community, but il
merely the custodian of It's money.
Any banker who does not regard this

as a sacred trust is not fit to be a
banker"
When asked IL the federal reserve
banks had been responsible for the
inflated currency, Mr.. Howard re-
piled: The war caused our inflated
currency, as It always does. II is
unavoidable. There Is nothing eco.
nomic about war II is ruthless in
every way. The federal reserve sys-
tenn saved this country. Had IL not
been for that system. Germany would
have won the war. We ought to
thank God every day that we had the
federal reserve system in operation
when the war came on Times are
perhaps rather bad now. but we
should be thankful they are not
worse. We might have had a Ger.
man prince in the capitol"
Touching upon international trade
and the present inequality OF ex.
change, Mr.. Howard expressed the
idea that from purely business
standpoint II would be good thing
for trade to cancel the war debts Of
the European countries. He added
that sentimental reasons, however,
were opposed to such action.
In discussing the general business
situation as II Affects the young man
OF today, Mr.. Howard said that the
big demand is for producers. There
Is a tendency, he said for young
men to drift more and more towards
the professions which are not essen
TALLY productive, but rather consump-
tive in their function, and that un-
less this trend is checked, there will
result superstructure of nonpro-
ducers, without adequate production
behind them. lie urged the young
men to consider this problem Sc
riously, saying that It was the sacred
obligation OF the schools to see that
this fact is impressed upon the young
people.
In conclusion the speaker I eferred
to the unsatisfactory condition ex.
isting between capital and labor.

lions of the laboring men, with the
result that they we're made better
citizens. Now labor has gone to the
other extreme. and is more tyrannical
even than capital has been. At the
same time labor and capital are In
dispensable to each other. One can
not go on without the other Some
one must begin to think and act on
this important question and find a
solution to It."

U. S. AGRICULTURE NOVEMBER
1877 CROP REPORT

Utah's potato crop is $4,000
bushels smallep than last year. The
yield per acre is only 1874 bushels com.
pared with 1874 bushels last year. The
reduction In yield Is not due to heavy
loss in any one section but to a wide
spread lack of condition in the crop.
Possibly the most important adverse
factor was the July frost which in
jured potatoes over wide area. The
crop this year Is estimated as 2.7SS,.
600 bushels.
Corn is estimated as yielding 90
bushels per acre which makes a larg.
er production than last year despite n
reduced acreage. A slightly larger
percentage of the crop. 20 per cent
this year. is reported as cut for
silos. This part OF the crop is pro-
ducing 10 tons OF forage per acre.
Apples made SO per cent OF crop.
This indicates a production OF S29, 900
bushels or about 10000 more than
last year Utah county with SO per
cent OF crop and 2S per cent OF the
trees is a great factor in raising the
State average. The quality OF the

crop is placed at SS per cent compared
with an average of 81.
Glover seed. mostly sweet clover is
making an average yield of bushels
per acre However. the indications
are that only about 400 acres was
harvested compared with 1900 last
year. Reporters comments show that
a considerable acreage grown was not
harvested. A low price, with little
demand at that, made harvest appear
Improbable.
Sugar beets show a decline in con-
dition OF 10 points the past month.
The decline is due to the deterioration
OF fields which we're not irrigated the
last few weeks of the growing season,
and which. because of the lack Of ex-
pected rains, became too dry. Dig
ging experiences in 1919 and 1920 had
made II difficult to realize that a beet
field could become too dry in the fall.
