Smith Peterson of the Salina Chamber of Commerce, urgently invite all in Sevier and South Sanpete Counties to attend this timely and important symposium and entertainment program.

Well Baby Clinic Set For April 11th y The Clinic, held on Thursday of last week, and the examination for children were busy, with 17 babies and children receiving the free service. Mrs. Louis Merrill announces April 11th has ben named for the next clinic, with appointments being made in advance. Dr. Morris Fine and Luzon Peterson, County Health Nurse, assisted Mrs. Merrill. Well-Bab- pre-scho- ol Redmond Youth Attends 4-1- 1 Training School Wendell Rasmussen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Philo Rasmussen of Redmond, attended the Leader Training School in tractor maintainance at Salt Lake City, according to Lee Guymon, County Agent. Wendell is a natural at farm mechanics. He likes to work with farm machinery, and had some training in this field at the U.S.U. in Logan. The purpose of this tractor maintainance club is to teach boys how to do the things to a tractor that will maintain it in With proper good condition. training, they can learn to check and change the oil, check the water, the timing, inflate tires, grease the tractor, and other elementary jobs. The purpose is not to make tractor repair mechanics out of the boys. However, with the huge investment farmers have in machinery these days, it is important to maintain them in good condition. Just some small neglect can burn out bearings, or do other damage that can cost the farmer several hundred dollars in repair bills, or new machinery. Mr. Spencer Daines, Mechanical Engineer at U.S.U., cited numerous cases where carelessness and neglect, or lack of know how actually ruined machinery. In addition to the tractor maintainance training, they will be trained in safety precautions In driving and working around a tractor. 4-- H 4-- H UTAH, MARCH 22, 1957, Scouters Hear National Official District Scout leaders from Moroni on the North to St. George on the South, gathered in Fillmore, March 19th to listen to National Scout Executive Bob Perrin discuss the subject How To Conduct A Scout Meeting."

Over a period of the last few years, there has been an off and on discussion over lighting of the Salina Park, a discussion that has, as often as not, become heated, with tempers flaring, but action nil. We realize the project will cost money, and it probably will not carry itself financially, but will it pay off in giving the younger generation activity at night that is healthful and wholesome, and at the same time, give the adult population needed recreation and relaxation? Summer evenings are long, with very little diversion or entertainment for all ages. Would softball leagues, horse shoe tournaments, little league baseball teams, and a complete recreation program for the summer months aid the community? We think it would. We not only think it would reduce child delinquency, but would make a happy, healthier, more content community on the adult level as well. When lighting the park is mentioned, many think only of the town baseball team and the few men who would garner the good from it. This should not be the case. True, the baseball team should have access to the park and its lights, but only on a given schedule. The lighted park should be available to any group who sign with a recreation director for a schedule. Financing the original lighting project is quite a problem, but with a united effort between the various clubs and church organizations, it could be done. That is, it can be done if enough want it. Last week, we happened to be in the Aurora Ward gym, and were amazed at the activity being enjoyed by the adults. Two volley ball courts were in full use, and everyone seemed to be having a good time. On inquiry, we were informed the gym was used just like that about every night, with the exception of Sunday. We dont know, but just imagine the same situation exists in the Redmond Youth Center. A good community discussion is welcome, and we open our columns to either side, but lets do something. Official Predicts Bright Future For Utah Sugar Beet Producers Greater demand and rising world sugar prices, together with 11 per cent increase in sugar beet acreage allotments, are signs of a brighter future for the Utah beet grower. That is what J. A. Wood, Salt Lake, vice president and assistant general o manager of the Sugar Co., told nearly 150 beet farmers from Utah and neighboring counties, who met in February in Spanish Fork. Now is the time if there ever was a time of opportunity for the farmer to get into the sugar industry, said Mr. Wood. He pointed out that recent legislation has made it possible for the government to permit an 11 per cent increase in beet acreage in Utah. Such an increase was made to help meet the demand for more sugar because of a growing population and a broader use of sugar in industry. Farmers wanting to establish themselves in the beet sugar industry must fill this increased acreage quota so that in future years, they will be assured of their rights to grow beets under the government allotment program, he said. Speaking of advancement in sugar farming, Bion Tolman, Salt Lake City, general agricultural superintendent, U and I Sugar Co., predicted that in another decade, sugar beet varieties may be developed to resist attack from the costly pest called nematode. However, at present, the farmers best control is crop rotation and elimination of weeds that serve as hosts to sugar beet nematode, he said. He also told growers that by 1958, his company should be able to supply enough monogerm hybrid seed to its growers to plant all their commercial Utah-Idah- M-M- en Basketball All-Sta- nc acreage. He said this would further increase efficiency by expediting mechanical thinning and reducing labor costs. Where seed planting equipment is properly adjusted, one may expect' 90 per cent single beets in a planting when monogerm hybrid is used. This compares with only about 59 per cent singles from regular beet seed being used today under similar circumstances. Don Martin, Salt Lake City, Western Beet Sugar Producers, reported that sugar prices within the United States have remained static while labor and machinery costs have gone up as high as 45 per cent. He said the beet sugar industry has been able to carry on only through American ' greater efficiency. farmers beet sugar produce sugar with less man power per ton than any farmer in the world. Mrs. Stanley Burgess and dau- ghters, Ellen, Vickie and Beattie, visited from Wednesday until Saturday at the home of Mrs. Lloyd Davis in Salt Lake City. Ellen, a senior at Wasatch Academy, was home for Spring Vacation. While in the city, the Burgess sisters attended the matinee The Ten Commandments, on Thursday.
