MONUMENT To sEAeuLLs.

A report from North Dakota that seagulls recently appearing in Mclean county had destroyed grass hoppers which threatened to ruin the crops, calls attention to smaller in cident in Mormon pioneer life in Utah.
 Today a notable monument stands in the Mormon temple grounds in Salt Lake City in honor of the birds that saved the early settlers from threatened starvation in 1s4S. It Is a pillar about one hundred feet high surmounted by a bronze seaguH. Al it's base are inscriptions detailing the reason for its erection with illustrations by Mahonri Young. the Utah sculptor.
 The first pioneers trekked across the plains into Salt Lake valley in 1S47. Brigham Young stipulated that there should be intensive culti- vation of the land Crops were sown and the farmers looked for a bountiful harvest the next year Then criczets in huge armies swooped down upon the crops. The farmers tried ii eliminate the pest without success. Transportation at the time was difficult and means to obtain foodstuffs from distant points were limited. The situation looked critical.
 When practically every one had given up hope of saving any part or the crops. the seagulls, termed by old Mormons as the messengers from heaven" appeared. They did not touch the grain but warred on the crickets and in a short time had rid the fields of the pest. There are no records to show from whence the birds came.
 The seaguH is Utah's sacred bird Tt ;s unlawful fO kill if Many of the neople of this state hold it in affec- tionate memory and during the sum- mer thousands give of their bread to the birds that may be seen in large numbers at Saltair, a resort few miles from Salt Lake City on the Great Salt Lake.
