Heavy Property Loss The local loveis of sports were treated to a rare dessert when the local School under High the direc- tion of coach E. R. Hanson staged an Invitational Timk and Field Sleet The Little Pitno Invitational of South Central Utah. Six schools from Sanpete and Sevier donned the abbreviated garb for the afteroon totaling seventy-eigh- t aspirants for the records of Clinton Larsen and other Utah stars. From the standpoint of the spectators the meet was sensational in its closeness, yet athletically it was a revelation of what good clean athletics are doing for this portion of President HaidingV backyard. Monroe and Wasatch tied fur first honors with 40Ji points, followed a half inch behind by Mai.ti with 40. Trailing Manti was Richfield with 38. Snow with 17 and Salina with 8. Considering that tins was the first competition' this year for any of the entrees, very creditable records were tacked up. Staples of Monroe cast himself over the bar at 10 feet 4 inches in the pole vault, and then not satisfied, showed the locals bow the Greeks cast the iron plate hurling the Grecian missile 101 feet. Richardson of Manti harpooned the earth at 146 feet 10 inches in the javelin, while Bean of Richfield tolled off 19 feet 11 inches in the broad jump. Sevy of Richfield, Johnson of Richfield and Thompson of Wasatch showed fast heels in the sprints and distance races. Sevy paced the mile in 4:57, while Johnson stepped the century in 10:1. The birth of this years Invitational proved such a success, that it is the aim of Coach Hansen and Principal Evans to make it an annual classic.

The average advance on beets over the guaranteed price will be about $3 a ton, said an official of the Sugar company yesterday, and that will mean a distribution of some money in Utah and Idaho. There were about 1,225,000 tons of beets raised in the two states last year, and this will mean an additional $3,675,000 to be distributed among the beetgrowers in addition to the $5 guarantee. Of this amount, $1.25 a ton has already been sent out and another payment is expected before June 1. Over the signature of W; II. Wat-tivice president and general mano Sugar company ager, the yesterday sent the following communication to all beetgrowers: During the past two or three weeks there has been quite a good daal of agitation in sugar circles, due largely to the governments action in attempting to close the New York sugar and coffee exchange. This action on the part of the government had a depressing effect on the market, but it was only temporary, since on yesterdays market imported raw sugars for July and September delivery sold at the highest price since the war. It is quite apparent from the operations of the traders in sugars for future delivery that the opening price for refined produced from next years crop of beets is likely to be the best we have had in years; hence we are sending out this advice to oui growers that they may have the latest word we have received in order that they may govern themselves accordingly with respect to the growing of beets. For the purpose of comparison 1 raw sugar for September delivery 2 last year sold at $3 per hundred3 weight; yesterdays quotation ran ui 4 to $6.87. Based on these figures, a 5 $10.50 price for refined sugar this 220 fall is not at all unlikely. The first sugar we sold from last years crop 1 of beets was marketed at $6.15 pet 2 bag; today we are getting $9.50, and 3 if the balance we have on hand is 4 sold at this price, the average foi 5 the whole crop will net you in 220 of $8 per ton for your With this in mind, it is but natu. ral to assume that next years crop of beets will produce even a highet return than obtained this year. Therefore, we do not hesitate to advise oui growers to plant every acre possible this year.

The entire loss is placed at $70,000, with insurance placed at slightly more than $30,000. The origin of the fire is unknown and opinions differ as to where it started. Shortly before six oclock smoke was noticed corning from the rear of the Cash Store and immediately an alarm was sounded and when volunteers arrived the fialmes had gained such headway that little could be done in checking the ravages of the fire and it was only when the flames had completely destroyed the Cash store and Kinema theatre and gutted the Owl cafe building that they were gotten under control. T he losses as placed by those who suffered as a result of the fire are estimated as follows: Salina Cash store, owned by P. C. Scorup Loss $40,000; insurance, $25,000. The Owl cafe building and Kinema theatre building, implement house and smaller buildings, owned by W. H. Brown Loss $25,000; insurance K inema theatre management Loss, $2,500; no insurance.
