Rejecting counsel, Maurice Abravanel accepted a position as conductor of the Utah Symphony in 1946. Abravanel made a personal commitment to build a Utah Symphony with Utahns. He invited only Dur-ham- seven out-of-sta- artists to te fill principal positions that first year. Maurice Abravanel not only gave local musicians opportunity, but local compos Agriculture proves to be a vital part of Utahs economy top official in the states major general farm organization has testified that Utahns take the states agricultural industry for granted, despite the fact that it is one of the largest contributors to the A states economy. Utah Farm Bureau Federa- tion Executive Vice President C. Booth Wallentine says Utah agriculture is the propellent force behind $2.4 billion in economic activity in the state each year. In testimony before a hearing conducted by the Utah Department of Community and Economic Development in Cedar City on a proposed Blueprint for Utahs Economic Iiture, he said over $600 million of that is generated in cash receipts, most of it to Utahs 13,300 rur- al farms and ranches. The remaining $1.8 billion comes from value-adde- d processing, marketing, distribution, credit and numerous other activities conducted in the state. Rural Utah, of course, is more than just agriculture. But agriculture is still today, as it has been from the begin- ning, the backbone of rural Utahs economy, Wallentine said. According to a study by Utah State Univeristys economic department, each dollar of economic value created on a Utah farm or ranch creates about three more dollars of economic value in but farm related, business, he added. He said the growth rate in food and fiber processing and retailing in Utah is greater than many other major industries, such as mining, con- struction, machinery, equipment and the computer and electronics industry. But as an industry, agricultures contributions are generally overlooked. Some choose to limit the value of Utah agriculture to the economic activity at the farm gate. To do so would be tt like saying the value of mine at the stops mouth, completely ignoring the tremendous economic activity associated with the inputs that make the mine, itself, run, or the transportation, processing, marketing and distribution of the products of that mine. No one would think of doing that. Neither should it be done in the case of agriculture, Wallentine said. Wallentine said while state officials seek to bring Utahs personal income up to par as compared to the nation, a similar disparity exists in net farm income between Utah and the nation. Net income per farm averaged $21,260 in the U.S. in 1987, while Utah farmers and ranchers averaged only $12,956 in net farm income that year, he said. Wallentine said in many areas of the state, production agriculture is responsible for d to as much as of all economic activity. He urged the DCED to support rural economic growth by opposing threats by environmental preservationist groups to seek cuts in livestock grazing allotments, and reductions in timber, mining and oil exploration through wilderness or other public land designations; by working with farmers and power companies to reduce electrical pumping rates for farmers who must pump irrigation water to feed their livestock or water their Ken-neco- one-four- th one-thir- crops; and supporting biotech- nological research, which will help farmers and ranchers be more efficient with the inputs they must use to produce food and fiber. One day soon, Americas farmers will be denied the opportunity to use many, if not all, of the chemicals that have helped make them the most productive agriculturists in world history, he said. We urge a greater effort to support adequate funding for biotechnology at Utah State University. There are numerous opportunities for spinoff industries in the private sector. He also urged state economic development officials to put more effort into promotion of the states farm products. Every future trade mission, both domestic and abroad, should be required to consider the agricultural potential, Wallentine said. He urged state officials to develop a think tank of leading far- mers and ranchers to participate in the planning process for future trade missions. Wallentine said development of any kind in rural Utah will be slow in coming if the infrastructure of this portion of the state is not enhanced. He urged government officials to consider helping rural Utahns solve such problems as a lack of local medical and dental care, improvements in the educational opportunities for rural students, and upgraded efforts to maintain and improve the rural highways of the state, which are often used roadas the the farmers states ways by and ranchers. farm-to-mark- et Conference discusses debate of nuclear versus fossil fuels American people are trying if nuclear power is better than the effects of the emissions from burning fossil fuel. This was one of the issues discussed at the recent Institute for Resource Managements Conference, sponsored by the Robert Redford to decide Institute. The conference, which was attended by representatives from utilities, power-plan- t manufacturers and environmental groups, focused on whether nuclear power should be revitalized to reduce the emissions from fossil fuels. These emissions are believed to be the cause of the global warming known as the greenhouse effect. Industry representatives unveiled the next wave of nuclear reactor technology designed to handle accidents. Meltdowns, the worst fear in a nuclear reactor, are prevented by either keeping the fuel cells too small and too weak to melt or by making sure the coolant flows without human or mechanical involvement. But opponents said the new technologies do not address the issue that most concerns the public: radioactive waste. General Electric Vice President Bert Wolfe said Waste is a major advantage of nuclear power, not a disadvantage. (Quoted in The Salt Lake Tribune, Oct.22). He explained that the relatively small amount of radioactive waste is not nearly the health risk that tons of fossil fuel emissions are. Judy Sack, a finanical consultant to the utilities industry, believes the present state of nuclear energy came about purely by economics. The industry was overbuilt and conservation measures were working. Now those situations are reversing, but there still is not evidence that nuclear reactors will be cheaper than coal power plants. Russel W. Peterson, former of Delaware, reported that the least-coalternatives are conservation, governor st renewable sources of energy and recycling of materials. It was also voiced during the conference that the industry must develop a nuclear fuel that cannot be converted to bombs and can be stored on site. American subject of new book is ers. He started a Contemporary Music Festival on the University of Utah campus, the symphonys first permanent home. Through the years, Abravanel overcame many challenges: lack of rehearsal space, inadequate funding and only tentative community support.

Bullfrog Marina presents its free annual fishing forum and striper clinic Nov. 3-- 5, with nightly lectures and prizes and daily fishing with a pro. Current lake striper record is 39 pounds, 6 ounces. A giant, pulled from the shallows in Padre Bay by a black Labrador on Sept. 10, was ruled as ineligible for the record book because it was not caught on tackle. The striper apparently was suffering stress after chasing a carp from deep water. Some of the hottest fishing has been found in the Hite Marina area, where general manager Joe Schwenk reports stripers of 39 and 33 pounds landed in late September . |
