LEHI Sugar beet production in Utah for 1928 is forecast at 572,000 tons, according to the report of the United States department of agriculture, reissued Tuesday by Frank Andrews at the local office. BOUNTIFUL One of the fine flavored fruits that is making Utah famous in world markets is the Elberta peach. The states crop in 1927 was valued at $673,000. Exports totaled 793 carloads. i HEBER CITY Utahs wheat crop in 3927 was valued at $5,792,000. Winter wheat, 85 per cent of which was grown on dry land farms, averaged 19 bushels to the acre. Spring wheat, 80 per cent grown on irrigated land, averaged 31 bushels to the acre. I GUNNISON Damage possibly running into the thousands of dollars, although a accurate estimate is not yet obtainable, was caused by a cloudburst accompanied by hail, which swept over Gunnison Wednesday afternoon. The heavy downpour lasted three hours. i SALT LAKE Fourteen federal highway projects, costing a total of approximately $1,500,000, are now under course of construction in Utah, it is shown by a statement prepared in the offices of the state road commission.

With the campaign half completed It is possible Terry will complete his summer labors with a record that will be the envy of all bis first base contemporaries. Still, so far as the cold figures are concerned, his one miseue prevents him from setting a new fielding mark. Stuffy Mclnnis did that several years ago when he went through the season without an error. At that the two cases are a bit different. Without venturing any personal opinion on the matter it may be said that at the time Stuffy was setting his record the popular theory was that he had more interest In it than In team play. Terry Is different. He has figured in as many double plays as any first baseman in the big time and, roughly speaking, has accepted as many chances. Until it was mentioned to him recently he did not even know his fielding average was so close to GRAHAM BONNER comiosl tv vmtiM mvytfti whom ELVES AND FLOWERS the Elves bird, took the elves upon his broad back, early, early one morning.

Jackson, Lindstrom and Cohen get their throws over to me so well that it is a real pleasure to work with them. Its that sort of teamwork that counts." Undoubtedly Terry is correct, but, at the same time, his infielders are not throwing the balls that are hit to him, and he handles tricky grounders and slashing low liners with as much skill as tosses from his companions. Last year Rogers Hornsby, a shrewd critic of ball players, called Terry the best first baseman in the league and the best he had "ever seen on completing a double-plafrom first to second.' It is probable that still holds good, for Bill is even better than he was then. The hardest play a first baseman has to make is when there is a runner on first and third and only one out, with the score too close for comfort, says Terry. When a grounder is hit to you you have to figure fast whether it is best to try for a double play or to throw home and try to cut off the run. Of course, if the runner on third does not try to score then your problem is simple, but sometimes you have to be a mind reader. y Ambidextrous Duel Won Finally by the Batter An ambidextrous pitcher encountered a batter likewise talented in a recent game and the result was a base on balls. who Paul Richards, shortstop, throws equally well with either hand, was put in the Muskogee box in a Western association game with To-- , peka after two regular pitchers had been knocked out All went well until Wilson, a switch batter, came to When your Children Cry for It There is hardly a household that hasnt heard of Clistoria I At least five million homes are never without it If there are children in your family, theres almost daily need of its comfort And any night may find you very thankful theres a bottle in the house.
