This is 90 per cent of nor mal since the average for this per iod is 9.12 inches. While this de ficiency is small, higher than nor mal rainfall is necessary to insure average yields following such trying season as that of 1931. Official orders were issued by Brigadier General W. G. Wil liams, adjutant general of Utah, for the annual summer training camp of the Utah National guard during June at Jordan Narrows. The 222nd field artillery, under command of Colonel Hamilton Gardner, will be in camp from June 1 to 15. Colonel Albert Wilfong will be the executive officer; Captain Victor Shea, adputant; Major Wm. F. Lyons quartermaster and Major F. A. Taylor, surgeon. Training period for the I45th field artillery will be from June 16 to 30. The staff will be composed of General Williams, commanding officer; Colonel Curtis Y. Clawson Executive officer; Captain John W Summerhays, adjutant; Major Lyons, quart ermaster;i Major John F. Sharp, surgeon, and Major H. Arnold Rich, fire marshall and Urge 1932, HOW ELLS IS SPEARER AT 'K1 (By A. F. Bracken) The wheat crop on the Levan ridge promises an acre yield of ap proximately 17 bushels this season which Is near 80 per cent of nor mal production. For Juab valley. however, the condition of the crop la not over 70 per cent of normal which when rated In acre yield will amount to about fifteen bush els. The production at harvest may be above or below these amounts for the ridge or valley, respectively, depending upon the precipitation falling during the next six weeks. With the exception of the dry land area just north of Nephl the wheat over the whole valley wemer ged to good stands under the snow after fall seeding. This late emer gence was due to the extreme drought of the summer and fall of last year. The year 1931 was the driest on record. Over the period of 12 months only 7.42 inches of rain fell which compared to the average of 13.05 was only 56 per cent of normal. This deficiency of moisture over the fall low period of last seas on has reflected itself in the rather poor condition of this year's crop, High winter wheat yields are usu ally associated with fall emergence of the plants, and the moisture condition of the soil which favors early germination of the seed is in turn a very important contributing factor ' to making the fallow pro ductive. According to the precipitation record made from September 1st, 1931, the beginning of the sowing season for winter wheat, to April Disabled veterans in U. S.

The speaker of the day was Byron How- ells of the First National Bank of Nephi. Mr. Howells gave a splendid and paper on "Administration Management in Business." He said in part: "An understanding of the prin ciples of business management Is of more than ordinary importance,' for whether large or small, no business can succeed unless the man or men connected with It possess that understanding and ability to apply those principles to a degree above the average in its line. If below the the average business ability the- concern will fail. If the management is of no greater ef feciency than the average, the business may continue to exist indefinitely, but it will not become a successful enterprise. "In the last fifteen years there has been a tremendous increase in interest in management. Business men have been studying It; corporations have installed ail kinds of systems trade associations are accumulating information to pass on to their members and the American Management association has shown a fine work not only spreading the management idea but also giving practical help in particular problems. "Any manager, whether he heads a vast organizaion or " whether a small concern or department, has two major functions: 1.

Scoring In Track and Board of Equalization Field Meet at Logan To Meet June 1-- LOGAN Showing rare form In all the races Brlgham Young University trounced tie Utah State In a track and field dual meet at Logan last Saturday. The final score was Brlgham Utah Young University, 8ff State, 58 The Cougars took first place in every race, with the exception of the high hurdles. Forgeon of the Ag gies and Lewis, B. Y. U. tied In this event. Likewise, the Aggies took first place in every field event with the exception of the hammer throw which Scott of the Cougars won with a heave of 136.1 feet. The weather was ideal for the meet, but the looseness of the track prevented any records being broken on the track. Campbell of the "A" broke the only record of the day. Putting the shot 46.05, he broke his own record of 45. feet 8 inches. which he set in the last dual meet with Utah University. Probably thel outstanding per former of the meet was the Aggies Carl "Bones" elongated captain, Belliston. Taking first place in the javlin, high Jump and Dole vault. he annexed a total of 15 points to lead the scorers of the day. He did not have much competition in the high jump and pole vault, but he surprised everyone by throwing the Javlin furthur than Cox of the Ag gies. Campbell of the Aggies and Taylor and Hutchinson of the Cou gars were next in the scoring line with ten counters each. 3; 2-- 3. 1- -2 Sportsmen's Outing To Be Held At Lake Resort The Utah Sportsmen's Annual outing will be held at Geneva resort Saturday and Sunday, May 28 and 29, with the Salt Lake County Fish and Game Association In general charge, it was decided at a meeting of the Salt Lake body Sunday. The two days of festivities annually attract sportsmen from all sections of the state. The traditional program of competitive sports and games will be conducted, according to the announcement of the committee. Although the program of events will not be announced until after the next meeting, the usual round of sports, including horse-sho- e pitching, fly casting, trap shooting and boat racing will be Included in the program, the committee states. Boat racing has been anually one of the biggest events of the day, with some of the speediest crafts in the state pitted in thrilling races on thee calm lake. This event will doubtless prove a drawing card for hundreds of spectators as before. 20 Juab County taxpayers, who believe they should have an adjustment on their taxes ' must appear beifore the board of county commissioners on June 1 or June 20 at Nephl, or June 6 at Eureka. These are the days that the county board sits as a board of equalization. ' Any person feeling himself aggrieved and being dissatisfied with the decision of the county board of equalization ' in relation to the assessment of any property in which he has an interest, may appeal from such decision to the state tax commission, by filing with the county auditor a notice Of appeal, within five days after the final action of said county board of equalization, which notice shall specify the grounds of complaint. ... Representatives of the state tax commission were in Nephl Monday and met with the Juab County officials relative to. a number of - taxing matters, among other things discussed was Section 5979 Compiled Laws of Utah, 1917, which provides: "The board of equalization may remit or abate the taxes of any INSANE, IDOTIC, INFIRM or INDIGENT person to an amount not exceeding $10.00 for the current year."- - But anyone applying for. a ten dollar abatement on their pro perty must qualify under the fore, going section. . Eureka Newspaper Now Being Published by Rifes An announcement In last week's issue of the Eureka Reporter, conveyed the information that the Reporter had been purchased by C. E. Rife and J. Vern Rife.. The Rife Brothers have been connected wih the Eureka newspaper for many years, and recently they. . have been managing the business. The Times-Newishes them a lot of success in their new venture. We presume the greatest thing that we coud wish them Is that the price of metals would get back to where all the mines of the great Tintic Min-' ing District would again operate. The retiring editor, Mr. Huish, has been in the business for over thirty years, and has always given the people of that district a real good newsy paper, and when anything didn't seem right to Mr. Huish, he was not a bit backward in telling the world about It. His editorials were forceful and to the foint, and although everybody did not agree with him, they certainly knew where he stood. We wish him success in his new business . , |
