I cannot help but think that this great achievement is the result of our township and county fairs, bath through our exhibitions and the field crop competitions, ti am sorry that this venture ha: been suspended -It not only stimulates the grain and seed showing at aur fairs but was also a great community asset..

We should al- ways endeavor to keep the boys and girls i'ntereisted as they will be the men and women o& tomorrow.

They have been able tomakesome out- standing demonstrations, showing what can be attained when proper care is taken, and the best balanced feeds for stock are used and proper methods of cultivation for grant and potatoes: Toa many of our societies seem eo thinly that their only purpose is to stage a fair. This should 'not be the case, as there are more oppo•.tunu'ties to assist agriculture than just through the medium of a fele.

CANADIAN PILOT KILLED The bodies of seven leen and a wo- t]15 t1 „sic' 1 1111 'Sunday night in. the wreckage of an air liner which crashed • on a tliaht from. Salt 'Lake City to Cheyenne, \\ y o., :All persons on the ,plaice were dead, lire passengers and the crew of three. Pilrt Lloyd Anderson, a 32 -year- old Canadian .liter with 7,0110 hours' experience, apparently had brushed the plane against a knoll in seeking to 'surmount the Wasatch ',fountains, or the plane had developed mechanic- al trouble bn the 'murky weather of Friday. Apparently the group stet death instantly. The body of .hiss Mary ,Carter, the stewardess, was found intact- Those of the two pilots and 'five passengers were .mangled, ,and parts of them were scattered about the cabin. •Ainderson lived at Cheyenne,' \'u yo, was married, and had a three- year-old son. His 'former address in Canada was not listed, The smash-up occurred about 20. miles east of Salt Lake City, Utah;. shortly before dark. ''It was lying nose. down on the side of a knoll at the summit of Parley's Canyon. The plane appeared to be ,propped up against a tree, *,ear which it had` thrust its nose into the ground. The giant wings were not broken, res- cuers believed, but the tail was wreck- ed and hanging down. The place where -the big low -wing twin -motor air Liner, one of the lat- est models of transport planes, met its fate was at an altitude of about 8,000 feet above sea level, or some 3,600 feet above the :floor of the Salt Lake valley, 'front 'w'hich it had arisen.. ,Persons residing near the foothills of the Wasatch range had reported seeing it circle about several times' 'before it disappeared into the canyon, apparently seeking to gain altitude. How nearly it had succeeded was indicated by the fact that it lay with- in 300 feet of the tap of the knoll upon which it landed. ' At the time it crashedthe tips of the Wasatch were hidden by io:c- hanging clouds, preventing the plane from following its usual course up ,Parley's ,canyon and through - the gap in the range.
