President Kimball made a few remarks, instructing the people to lay up their grain against a time of famine, admonished them to be obedient to the counsels of the priesthood. President Young followed upon the same subjects, and endeavored to show them the propriety of regulating the prices of the grain they raise, and making speculators pay a good price for all the grain they got from them. -- Brigham City, Utah
