Pressure on the local lakes was tremendous and was only exceeded by the uccess of the anglers. The largest, at least. most populous would have to be city in the county over the week-enthe camper community which surrounded Minersville Reservoir and manned the hundreds of boats on the lake. d Fishing must have been excellent since the number The only complaint I heard pdbich seemed to have any basis was about the lack of trash recepticles and failure to provide guidelines for parking of campers and trailers. Something to think about lot next year. of complaints was negligible. Pressure on the lakes in the canyon was much less than that on Minersville. Little Reservoir had the biggest load of fishermen with about We counted around twenty-fiv- e on Kents Lake and only a few at Three Creeks and Puffers. Other than cold weather, there wasn't any complaining heard there either, however. Lot's of limits were taken making smiles the order of the day. one-hundre- There seems to be considerable interest in the status of the proposed development around Puffer Lake so here is a run down on developments there. Leisure Sports, Inc., has a tentative lease agreement with the State Land Board on three school sections near Puffer Lake. The leased sections are Nos. 2 and 36 in T29S, R5W, and Section 36 in T28S, R5W. An application for change of lands between the State and the Forest Service has also been made to acquire five additional sections of land for development in that area. This application is under study by the Forest Service but, at this time, only the first three sections are definately involved. . One of the requirements or conditions of the lease is that Leisure Sports prepare an approved plan of development of the leased land. A "Master Plan" of development has been submitted by Leisure Sports and is being studied by the state and county. A number of meetings have been held on this project including one held in the county court house on May 21 with the County Planning Commission, Commissioners Lee and Jefferson from the County Commission, and representatives from the Forest Service, the State Department of Health, the State office of Local Affairs and Mr. George Smeath, Beaver County's Planning Consultant, present along with Mr. Conrad Konning of Leisure Sports, Inc. Mr. Koning explained his plan for development of the area and explained that his "Master Plan" is not to be confused with a subdivision plan wherein all the engineering data 'and surveys are made a part thereof, rather, "This is a concept, an idea". The plan would, however, if accepted, assure Mr. Koning that he would be allowed to complete the project once begun and not be stopped when the hard and expensive work of beginning was done and the more profitable part was underway. The state agencies present and the Forest Service were asked for comments which they gave and they also asked for two weeks to study the proposal and return their further comments. A subsequent letter from Mr. Bill Bruhn of the Governor's Office of Local Affairs reiterated the request for time for study and promised reports from the state agencies within ten days. On that basis, further action has been withheld pending receipt of the promised reports. On hand at this time are reports from the Forest Service and the Office of Local Affairs, we still await word from the board of health with the knowledgt that their report was given to the State Land Board ar Jeast two weeks ago.

Crane Leonora Muir "When considering opportunities to provide a more favorable business outlook for the area by bringing in new industry, we ought not to overlook the great potentials for further development of our existing industries," declared Dr. George E. Stoddard, head, Utah State University Dairy Science Department.. He referred specifically to the potentials for growth within the dairy industry of Utah and the Intermountain Region. Currently, there is an ample supply of fluid milk. However, the cheese plants are operating considerably below their capacities and are not able to meet market demands. Dr. Stoddard explained, "by utilizing the abundance of high quality feed that is available, milk and other dairy products can be produced efficiently in this region. For this reason, the Intermountain States will continue to provide an increasing role in feeding the populous coastal states with commodities such as dairy products which can readily be produced and processed for shipment to those markets. "The region now has about 500,000 dairy cows of milking age. These provide an annual farm income of more than When we consider the increased value of processing & distributing and the business) that is made for allied industries, the dairy industry can be estimated to provide a benefit in the region oi more than $200,-000,00- 0. $500,000,000. "Utah has a prominent place in this regional dairy picture. Gross farm income from dairy enterprises in Utah amounts to about $52,000.00. As milk is processed and sold as cheese, ice cream and in other forms, the total value increases to about double its farm value. Milk and other products are shipped into the state for processing and many dairy products are shipped to outside markets. Such added business and that which dairying provides for industries selling feed, supplies and equipment, provide additional income for the state. It is not difficult to defend a total value of the Industry to Utah of more than $100,000,000 Ellen Boyter Says Vows With Warren Stucki Lost Tot Found Region's Dairy Industry has annually."
