The above picture was taken among the branches of the huge rubber tree, grown by Mrs. Crosier, and presented to E. Smith Peterson. It is now more than 10 feet tall, and is growing in Mr. Petersons office at the high school. Mrs. Maggie Crosier was elected president of the Salma Garden Club; at their annual business meeting, held Thursday night of last week at the North Sevier High School. She replaces Mrs. Ruby Burgess in the top position. Elected to serve with Mrs. Crosier were Mrs. Leath Rasmussen, 1st vice president; Mrs. Merle Olsen, 2nd vice president, and Mrs. Letitia secretary-treasureCrane was Albert L. Starr, Ellis Sanders and Mrs. Leland Crane were elected members of the board of directors. Leath Rasmussen is a holdover director, and E. Smith Peterson is advisor. During the meeting, Mrs. Burgess gave a summary of the clubs activities during the past year, and Mrs. Crane gave the report. Mrs. Dean Nielsen reported on the project of beautifying the hospital grounds, stating that six dozen roses were planted, which blossomed last summer. ALo planted were Daffodils, Iris. Petunias, Lilacs and evergreens. Mr. Hallows, of the Hospital Board, attended, and complimented the Garden Club for r. secretary-tr- easurers Sugar beet production should to producers in 1953, according to reports of members of the Board of Directors of the Utah Sugar Beet Growers Association. The contract between processors and growers has been agreed upon, and contracting is reported to be in progress. J. Rex Mackay, growers association president, reported, on his return from Washington, that Puerto Rico and some other areas were very insistent that additional quotas be allowed them. Also that some sugar beet areas, such as Moses Lake in Washington, was anticipating considerable acreage expansion. These conditions might seriously jeopardize the sugar beet industry in Utah, unless farmers take immediate steps to increase production here. Of the 7,900,000 tons estimated consumption of sugar in the United States in 1953, 1,800.000 tons has been allocated to domestic beets. Only once in the last five years has the industry reached this quota. However, the possibility of higher production this year is Utah stands to lose its position in sugar beet production in any event unless production is increased. Failure to fill the quota will eventually result in and Cuba has huge surpluses which it would like to send into this country. If production in the state of Washington is increased enough to fill the quota, as is highly probable, Utah farmers will then be unable to increase production, because no quotas are established in any specific areas, and the national allotment of 1,800,000 tons, may be produced anywhere Thieves broke into the Whiting Brothers Garage in Elsinore some time early Sunday morning, taking $148.00 from the till, and the same night, an oil station and cafe, across the street, $10 00 in cash was taken from the register. Sheriff Clarence Smith and deputy Huntsman investigated the thefts. Some time in the morning of March 3rd, the Richfield Bowling alley was robbed of $150 00 in cash. Investigation was made City Marshall A. O. Hopkins and Huntsman. Finger prints were obtained at all places, stated Mr. Huntsman.

Dates were set for August 26th, 27th and 28th, and the following committee named: LcwMar Price, Joe Sampson, R. D. Anderson, Orville Andrews and Alvin J. Hansen. The fair had been discontinued for a few years, and its absence had caused much comment from residents of Sevier, as well as surrounding counties.
