"NIC is a formidable opponent and they have the talent and ability to beat anybody." instead of the usual nectar supplying first crop alfalfa, this is a poor year for county bee keepers. Another problem is the use of pesticides, they kflded. "Welfhave to feed some of our colonies to get them through the winter," Graham said. He is Sanpetes principal producer. One local beekeeper apparently wont have that problem. The notation on the report opposite his name listed 54 colonies "all dead from disease and neglect". Manti Fire Chief John Jensen said the wet spring and dry fall d fire have created a hazard, with roads and fence rows lined with flame ready grasses and weeds. "We need to exercise every precaution," Jensen said. Sanpete County is doing just that. It is installing an incinerator at the fairgrounds. It will be used for burning documents that no longer need to be kept in the files.
