Over two hundred changes have been made on the map since the 1967 edition was printed. Most of the changes have been made to keep abreast of the statewide highway improvements. Major mileage changes have been made as Utah's Interstate Highway system is completed. The Interstate System, for instance has reduced the mileage from Salt Lake City to Odgen by two miles, from Salt Lake City to St. George a distance of 318 miles and now 313 miles; and Salt Lake City to Price from 124 miles to 121 miles. Even more significant than the reduction in mileage is the status of the improvement flowers. "I want a lot of sunshine I can spread all around; It makes the people happy and fixes up the ground.

Report With fishing season here, many households have a new source of fresh meat and while some fishermen brag about their catches, others tell of the tasty meals their wife prepares. Fish are high in vitamins A and B and Iron. They are low in calories because of the low percentage of fat in fish, explains Flora Bardwell, foods and nutrition specialist with the Extension Services at Utah State University. Mrs. Bardwell gives three general rules for keeping fish in good condition: clean as soon as possible, keep clean and cool, and cook them as soon as possible after catching. She suggests that larger fish Space Heaters Hot Water Heaters Tank Rentals supply your needs. We'll take care of your tank or bottle. Let us Service Work 24 Hr. Service U.

"When fish are cooked too long they lose their flavor and become too dry. Remember that fish do not have much fat in their tissues, so it is easy for them to become dry. A fish is cooked enough if it breaks apart when tested by a fork. " Here is a suggestion she made for preparing fish in the oven. Salt the fish on the inside, place a strip of bacon on top, and then bake or broil. When the fish is done, pour two or three tablespoons of light cream over the fish and serve immediately. Refrigerate the fish if you do not intend to eat them immediately, Mrs. Bardwell suggested. When your supply is ample enough to do some freezing, one successful method is to freeze the fish in a block of ice. Place the fish in a baking pan, alternating heads and tails and, if possible, use fish of the same size. Fill the pan with water and freeze. Once frozen, remove the ice from the pan, place it in a plastic bag, wrap in freezer paper, and store in the freezer. Fish may be frozen dry in polyethelene bags and then wrapped in freezer paper. Garrett Freight wins award Harold W. Johnson, Director of Safety G Personnel of Garrett Freightlines, Inc. , Pocatello, Idaho, has received notification from the American Trucking Associations, Inc. that his company has received third place in the 1967 ATA National Safety Contest for motor carriers operating between 40 to 60 million miles per year. Awards are based on the accident rate, safety activities, and the selection, training over-the-ro- ad -fr- equency and supervision of drivers. Garrett employs some 800 line drivers, operating nearly 49 million miles in 1967 with a ratio of 1.90 accidents per each million miles traveled. For 1966 their accident ratio was 2.01, and both the com- pany and the drivers are hopeful of cutting the accident frequency to the point that they receive first place in the 1968 national contest. Awards will be presented during the annual meeting of the ATA Council of Safety Supervisors to be held in St. Mr. Louis on June 10-1- 4. Johnson plans to attend the meetings and accept the award.
