UTAH’S RECORD
FOR SUICIDES
IS LOWEST
SALT LAKE CITY, April 10.—In
the matter of suicides, Utah, in 1915,
had the lowest rate of any state in
the Union, according to statistics of '
the state health office. The percent
age was 12.7 per 100,000 of popula
tion. Even this record was bettered
in 1916 and 1917, when the number
per 100,000 population was 11.8 and
10 respectively. 1
Credit for this low suicide rate is
given in a large degree to the “block
teacher” system in the Mormon
church. Utah’s population is largely
Mormon, and visits by these “teach
ers” has been found an important
factor in preventing actions due to
lonesomeness and lack of advisers.
In each ecclesiastical ward of the
church are both ward teachers and
relief society teachers. “Blocks,” ap
proximating from six to twelve homes
within a ward, are visited regularly by
these teachers, both men and women.
Families are given counsel in religious,
business and family affairs when they
desire it. In this way, according to
the authorities of the church, those
persons of a morose disposition are
cheered, young mothers are advised
and numerous other matters are taken
up that have proved of benefit to all.
In the advising of young mothers, ac
cording to church statistics, it is
claimed that the death rate among
young children is remarkably low
among those who accept counsel, the
records showing that an average of
only one in twenty-one babies under
one year of age dies annually.
While the “teachers’ ’are principally
for the purpose of visiting and coun
selling members of the church, the
help is proffered to gentiles if they
wish it. No one, including church
members, need be visited if they do
not wish it.

COLORADO PINTO BEANS =
ARE DRUG ON MARKET
DENVER, April 10.—Between 20,
>00,000 and 30,000,000 pounds of Colo
•ado pinto beans of the 1918 crop have
rot yet been marketed and this de
ipite the fact that the 1918 crop was
[00,000,000 pounds smaller than the
1917 crop, according to a recent bul
etin of the United States department
>f agriculture. Increased production
>f beans in other states is given as
Jie reason for failure to market the
vhole Colorado crop.
The report shows that 40 per cent
if the Colorado crop was sold to the
government at a price ranging from
! to 7 cents a pound. These contracts —
were obtained in competition with
;rowers of California, Michigan and
ither states. One thousand two hun
dred and fifty-four carloads of beans
were shipped out of the state in 1918,
the report says.
