The Eureka (Utah) Reporter, Friday, July. 17, 1964 No. 29 Postmaster at state meet Closed for 24th hal-loysi- te Personal income outlook for third quarter looks good Personal income inUtah during the first six months of. 1964 totaled approximately $1, and the outlook 035,000,000 for the third quarter of this year is generally good. This is the report of First Security quarterly News Letter which will be distributed this week, it was announced today by Mary H. Newman, manager at Eureka Bank. Utahs personal income represents some $18 billion, or 2 per cent, above the total for the frist half of 1963, the News Letter said. Increases in e pay from tax cut total effective in somewhat more than $4 million per month in the Beehive Banks take-hom- mid-Mar- ch State. Anticipated cash receipts from agricultural pursuits in 1964, however, will probably be somewhat lower than .the total of $164 million reported for 1963.. Lower cattle prices, late spring planting and delayed crop growth are factors which will probably hold farm income down below last year's levels. Milk and egg production are both below lost year's levels. Fruit presents the brightest agricultural picture prevailing this year. With frost damage at a minimum, apricot production is expected to be five times of that a year production ago and double the average of the past five years. Sweet and sour cherries, peaches and pears should be well above the average production of the past decade. Steel and copper production in Utah through June of this year were well above levels of 1963. Steel production has continued at above 80 per cent of rated capacity, while copper production through June was approximately 24 per cent above that of a year ago. Over-al- l employment in Utah in June non-agricultu- ral was reported at 301,000, 600 more than a year ago. This is in strong contrast to the pattern of the previous five years during which the increase on a basis has ranged from seven to ten thousand.
