FRIDAY, Above average water supply during the coming summer, is assured for all parts of the state, the snowpack varying from 120 to 235 per cent of average. Since new records have beep set for the water content of many snow courses throughout the state, there is no doubt that many areas will suffer damage from very heavy spring runoff. Low reservoir supplies in Southern Utah will be replenished while low reserve storage space In northern reservoirs may be expected to intensify damage. The heaviest snowpack lies on the watersheds of the Strawberry, southern tributaries of the Provo, the Spanish Fork rivers, and south across the Price, San Rafael and San Pitch rivers. In these areas there is 170 to 235 per cent of average snow stored water. In Southern Utah, on the East Fork of the Sevier River, the W snow course has 121 per cent of average. On the Cedar Mountain at the headwaters of the Virgin and main fork of the Sevier Rivers, and on Coal Creek above Cedar City, the snows are at approximately 150 per cent of normal. The low elevation snows are particularly heavy for this time of year, and unless warmer temperatures reduce them considerably before the main snowpack yunoff comes, the melting of these snows will add to the peak flows to come this spring. Moisture in the soils underlying the snowpack is average or above in most parts of the state. . Since streamflow this year is expected to equal or exceed anything that has been experi-encfor many years, precautions should be taken now to prevent as much damage as possible from high peak flows. Storage in reservoirs other than those of the Sevier and Beaver Rivers is 150 per cent of ten year average, the 1941-5- 0 and is 63 per cent of capacity. The reservoirs of the Sevier River have respectively 43 per cent and 32 per cent of the ten year, average and of capacity. For the Rocky Ford reservoir on the Sevier River, the figures are. 68 per cent and 52 per cent idtsoe-Escalan- te er Beet Growers Told Of Contemplated Increase In Federal Sugar Support Hate The following news item taken charges on beets, refined sugar, from the Fort Collins Coloradoan and processing elements.
