I h? n&nt gt anil art OGPG1 L I THURSDAY. APRIL 17, 1919. WJ - tn UTAH ; I r i I People Can 't Forget Since the recent combined effort of the part of members of the old grocery trust has be'en so pronounced in trying to dis credit Skaggs' cash plan, hundreds of people recall the days of being at the mercy of the grocers' combination. This was be fore our stores were opened in Ogdcn. Some people go very far in their condemnation of methods practiced at that time, which cost all grocery users so much money Almost universal ly people tell us that they are confident had it not been tor our stores and markets, living would have been almost beyond any , one's means in Ogden during the past two years. Such com- ; raendation on the part of the public is more appreciated by us than the large sums of money we are accused of making. Peo ple cannot forget. Many appear to know that it is the mer chants who formerly did not believe in publishing their prices to the public. Merchants, who were ring leaders when people were at the mercy of the grocery trust, that condemn our cash and carry" methods at this time. Surely the old time dealer who trie, to appear now as a friend to the consumer must have had a B change of heart recently. It is certain they did not raise a hand g in the old days of robbery prices. The citizens of Ogden know B ; exactly the motive behind the attacks on Skaggs reduced prices and feel secure in the thought that we will not, at this time, turn j our backs to our loyal supporters ?nd join the newly organized j association.

E, H. HARRIMAN TO HELP BUILD LARGE HOTEE IN OGDEN Business Men Appeal to City Commissioners to Assist in Re moving Unsightly Signs From Mouth of Canyon Sta tistics on the Pay Rolls of Ogden Being Prepared. Steps toward the erection of a ho tel as a suitable memorial to Ogden'a development and growth were tHken last evening si a special meeiing of the direetors of the Ogden Merchants' Association in the offiee rooms of the Eccles' building. Several sites for the building were discussed. Some of iho sites named were: Twenty-sixth and Washington avenue. Tw.nty fourth and Washington avenue, nnd Twenty third street anil Washington a enue. Tlio merchants are determined that a hotel shall be built in Ogden that will he a source of pride. The-matter was thoroughly discussed at the meet ing last nisht and it was decided to bring the idea before the stockholders of the association at their meeting next Monday night so that definite action may be taken. It was recalled to the directors that Mr.-. Harrlman had offered, some time ago. to donate a sum of over $200,000 towards the erection of a suitable memorial to her husband in this city, providing that an equal sum could be raised by public subscription. This.' if the donation was granted, would mean the erection of a half million dollar hotel for Ogden to be known as the Harriman hotel. It was decided by the directors of ihe association to communicate with Mrs. Harriman and put forth every effort to obtain the donation. Unsightly Signs In accordance with the object, that of promoting and beautifying Ogden." the directors took up the advertising signs in and around the month of Og den canyon. For a number of years an ! erfort has been made by the public spirited men of this city to prohibit i the use of advertising signs in Og iden canyon. The reason given was that It destroyed the beauty arid ef fect of the scenic advantages of the canyon. It was decided by the direc tors to appeal to the concerns having !trn- in this district to take them down and move them to some other spot. Along this line the following I communication was sent to the cn commission of Ogden: "Gentlemen: During the past sev eral seasons, considerable criticism has appeared from time to time In the public press of unsightly adertislng displays which marred the scenic beauty of Ogden's splendid canyon. In order to bring this matter under uni form control, the Merchants of Ogden. an incorporated association compris ing in Its membership representatives of the various commercial. Industrial I M. H.

Searching for Two j Persons Who Were , Formerly in Ogden I Two persons are being sought by the ' local chapter of the Red Cross and ' the press has been asked to assist in j locating Mrs. Pearl Rasmussen and I Roy Garonette. a returned soldier. If either or both of these persons can be lound or will communicate with the Red Cross chapter, they will learn something to their benefit. Mrs Rasmussen was supposed to have re sided at 331 Twenty-second street, but inquiry at thai addre.-s tailed to re sal information concerning be and professional interests of the com munity, propose to havo the owners ot property in Ogden canyon lease to the association the exclusive right to display any and all manner of adver tising upon their property, except such as may be used by the owner of the property in ronnpetion with his own business thereon. "The lease of course, will be upon a nominal consideration and ihe as sociation will agree therein on its part not to erect or permit the erection of bill -boards on the property and not to use it for advertising purposes at all. "Ft is proposed alao that the owners authorize and permit the association to remove such advertising displays as may now be on their property lo cated in the canyon, without cost to the owners It this Is done by you as to your property, as well as by other owners of land in thee anyon. the criticism referred to will be ob viated and the canyon preserved a? nearly as possible in its natural state.) for the pleasure and recreation of Ci tizens of opden and tourists who llock to the resort during the summer months. "In order to accomplish this pur posi we have prepared a uniform lease and asrecment. which if the proposition meets your approval, will be executed by you and the officers of the association. Very truly yours. "The Merchants of Ogden." Expressions of Appreciation The secretary of the association was directed by the board to send letters 'to the Globe Grain and Milling com ; pany and also to the Sperr Flour company, welcoming them into the industrial life ot the city and express ing appreciation of their building of I plants in Ogden. J. S. Lewis, president of the asso ciation, presented a partial list of em ployment statistics that the organiza tion had obtained from merchants of the city. The list covers on fourth of the employers in Ogden. and is fast being completed. The statistics al reads received shows that 2294 male workers and 1172 female workers are employed by one -fourth of the Ogden business concerns It is estimated on these figures, that the monthly pay roll In Ogden is $263,875.60. and the annual payrol $3.89".297.52. The statistics, when completed, will be put Into book form by the Ogdcn Publicity bureau. The Merchants' association of Og den now has a total of 104 members. Garonette formerly resided at 128 Tracy avenue. The Red Cross headquarters in the J First National bank building will ap-i preciate any information concerning I 'the two persons CLEAHI-UP CIRCULAR ; 111 I OF IKS I 1 Do not fail to provide clean, warm quarters in which your cows, ewes aud mares can bring torth their young. Navel ill comes trom dirt. 2 It is dangerous to expose young stork, especially foals and colts, to sprlnc rain-storms. A day's exposure, if not latal. may stop a month's growth. 8. It is bad policy to turn the stork to pasture before the grass has well started. bad for the pasture and bad for the stock. 4. When the pasture begins, turn the sinrk out al night, instead of in the morning. Then they will feed through the night, and not lie down until the sun has warmed the air and the ground. 5. Get your horses into condition for spring work, the young horses es pecially. Many a colt has been ruined I by being put to hard work without! preparation It is the same with t;reen horses. t 6. In warm weather, thorough grooming is almost as important as fneding. Without it. dried sweat, dead skin and dirt clogs the pores, make; the h.orse uncomfortable and affect his health. 7. Look out for sore shoulders and backs, especially in plowing. Ee sure that your collars fit A collar too big j is as bad as one too small. If the collar rides up, use a martingale, or a girth, running from trace to trace, back of the forelegs. 8. When the horses are at work on a warm day, lift up the collars now) and then to cool their shoulders, nnd Wipe off the sweat and dirt with a bunch of grass 9. Wipe off the harness on your j horses when you stop work at noon and at night, and clean inside of ihe harne-.s, ihe collars especially. The salt sweat, drving on the skin and on the harness, ia what makes the trou ble. 10. If the skin i-- wrinkled upder the collar or saddle, bathe it with diluted inegar or wltchhazel. If the skm I broken, bathe it w ith clean warm I water containing a little salt. Fix the collar, with padding or otherwise, so that it will not touch the sore spot the next daj little carelessness at the beginning may cause a lot of trouble to you and suffering to the horse. 11 ( lean your horses at night, water them, give them a good bed, and water them again after they have eaten their hay so that they will not be thirsty all night. Let them rest in hour or more before they aro grain ed, The observance of these simple rules will not cost ou a cent, and will make a big difference In their e0nii-tiom The fool and his flannels are soon parted.
