A. Dixon. Utahs agricultural income last year was approximately $157 million. Agriculture comes close after manufacturing which is second to trade in total income within the fetate. Dividing last years income among the counties according to their estimated share of crop production in. dicates that Box Elder farm income approximated $18,169,900. Products contributing to Box Elders farm income in the order of their importance are: cattle and calves, $4,448,000; wheat, $2,690,000; dairy products, $2,417, 000; poultry and poultry products, $1,849,000; sugar beets, $1,457,000; sheep And lambs, $886,000; hay, $171, 4 000, and wool, $373,000. The states agricultural income jumped $30 million over the 1951 figure, and in 1958, there will undoubtedly be a healthy improvement over the 1957 figure, Congressman Dixon said.

Coop, Chickens Fire razed a chicken coop in southeast Brigham City, Tues- day night, destroying 3,600 chickens and causing a loss estimated at $9,000. An adjoining tool shed also was leveled by the blaze. Neighbors reported the fire at 8.55 p m By the time fire men arrived, the building was completely engulfed in flames. Efforts were directed primarily at saving three nearby coops. The property, located at Sixth South and Fifth East, is owned by Roy G. Shaw but presently is being rented by Craig Bram-wel- l and Jordan Larsen. The men told Fire Chief Richard Hansen that they had been at the coop shortly before the fire was discovered and had planned to return. Cars Jammed Roads The leaping flames, easily seen for miles, drew dozens of spectators in cars which jammed roads and interferred with fire fighting efforts. ,Chief Han sen deplored the situation, noting the existence of a city ordinance which prohibits cars from being driven closer than one block from a fire.
