ed a settlement where Tooele City il
now located. 1t was Ezra T.. Ben.
son who prophesied that Tooele
valley would yet contain 0 1000 peo'
pie. The valley derives its name
from the Spanish word Tule, the
name Of a large rush that grew
along the creeks. Thomas Bullock
in recording some public documents
mispelled the word Tooele and that
is the way that it has continued to
be spelt.
We will now return to the Grants
vile settlement when Severe and
Mcbride returned to their one room
shack James Baker accompanied
them and some other families came
in during the summer, Thomas p.
Watson, VIM. Davenport, Samuel
Steel, and MILFORD Hudson. James
Baker vas appointed President of
the Branch and MILFORD Hudson
Clerk. The Indians being trouble
some they decided that some pro-
lection vas necessary, SO they went
to work and erected a cedar post
wall which they called a fort. This
enclosed a piece of ground about 40
by so rods. The settlers came
focking in so rapidly that they had
to enlarge the fort by erecting q
mud wall. When completed it con-
tanned about 4 acres. The mud wall
was about 10 feet high and about 2
feet thick; it had a gate at each

Some people are under the I'M
preston that Grantsville was named
for General U. S. Grant, but this wa.
before General Grant had come into
prominence. The settlement was
named for Jedediah M. Grant, the
father of President Heber ]. Grant
]. M. Grant was the head of an ex-
ploring party which came into this
valley in 1848.
The first party of white people
that passed through this valley as
far as it is known was the Bonner
party In the fall of 1912, who were
ON their way to California.
In the fall of 1849, John Row
berry with a small party was sent in
to this valley by President Brigham
Young to search for grazing ground
for cattle and horses. They came TO
the sinks of the three creeks now
known as Box Elder, South Willow
and North Willow creeks. Here
they found an abundance of wild
grass. They returned to Salt Lake
City reporting their find to Presi-
dent Young.
In October 1850, Harrison Sewers
and his brother-in-law, James Nc
Bride and their families came into
the valley and camped on North
Willow creek.
They built a one-room house of
willows and mud in a large patch
of willows just north of where Bish-
op Jeffries now resides. They only
lived there for a part of the win
ter as the Indians became very
troublesome. They were compelled
to abandon their home and went
and spent the balance Of the winter
at Pine Canyon, where they had the
protection of the few settlers there.
In the early spring of 1851 they
returned to their original location On
north Willow creek. During the
summer Ezra T. Benson sent a par
ty into the valley and they establish

Low Egg Production Is
Caused BY Broody Hens

One cause for low egg production In
the average flock during the summer
months is the fact that the broody hen
is not quickly "broken up" or gotten
back to laying.
According to G. A. Schmidt Of the
Colorado Agricultural college, careful
records have shown that the average
broody hen, if placed In broody coop
tho first day she goes broody. will lay
again In ten days.
If she Is allowed to stay broody ten
days and then put in broody coca
It will be % days before she will cola.
mence laying. If allowed to stay
broody II days. it will be 80 days be
fore she will lay.
1t is therefore essential to break
up" the broody hen the first day she
shows symptoms Of broodlness
The most efficient way to "break
up" broodlness is to put the hens in a
goody broody coop. A broody coop
is nothing but a slatllke coop made out
Of lath in such n way that a space
equal to the width of a lath Is left
between the laths on the four sides
and bottom.
This coop should be raised several
feet from the ground and placed in a
shady place where the broody hens
can see the rest Of the flock.
Feed and water the broody hens and
after four days release them. Cen
orally this treatment is sufficient. II,
however. any hen wants to set again.
put her back in the coop for two more
days.
This treatment will not retard the
formation of eggs and everywhere has
proved most satisfactory.

Methods Used in
Caring for Milk
Bulletin Gives Summary of
Best Known Practice in
Operating Plant.

Prepared b. me United states Department
of Agrieulfurel
In these days OF much discussion
about the price and distribution Of
milk, It may be helpful to compare the
varlous methods used in taking the
milk from the producer and conveying
Il to the consumer. A bulletin recently
issued By the Department Of Agricul-
ture entitled milk Plant Operation"
tells how the work is done. Previous
bulletins In the same series have told
about construction, arrangement, and
equipment Of milk plants, and this
latest ons gives summary Of the
best-known practice In carrying on the
business.
Skill and Training Needed.
''rhe operation Of n milk plant re-
duires. besides general ability, con-
siderable technical skill and TRIMMING"
says department specialists. New milk
plants are constantly being estab-
lished. often by associations Of farm
ers who produce the milk. or by asso-
Citations Of producers and small deal
ers; and the success Of such plants de-
ponds to a large degree on the man
ager and his methods.
In the bulletin. the various onera-
lions are followed through in some
what the sane order as in an actual
plant, beginning with prompt removal
from the railroad station and suitable
care on arrival 1T the plant. Bottllng
and cnpplng methods are described.
Both these operations are generally
done by machinery; and n comparison
IS made Of the various methods and
machines as to speed and cost.
Insure Clean Bottles.

them not only OF dirt or previous milk.
ouf OF bacteria; labor expense of
washing; and how inspection may be
maintained to insure clean bottles. are
gone into In detail; also other ele-
ments OF sanitation in plants. sBot-
ties are serious consideration say
department specialists, mot only from
the necessity Of careful washing. but
also from their high cost and necessity
Oh frequent replacement" How TO
avoid frequent breaking and losing of
bottles, and how to enlist the interest
OF milk purchasers in the return of
bottles, are taken up. Customers need
to be Informed that the waste Of hot.
ties Is one Of the causes of higher
price OF milk than would otherwise be
charged.
Waste of milk in handling OF by bav-
ing too much sent out on the wagons
are things that must be avoided. The
bulletin tells how careful milk dis
tribution prevents leaks Of milk. ana
how they can properly utilize what
comes back on the wagons: also how
to keep track of the receipts and
sales; how to pay the drivers so they
VIII take an interest in the business.
how to pay the producers; and how
to deal with the problem Of surplus
milk. '17
