| A POTTERY FOR NEPHI.
It is we'll known that there is any
amount of the best of potter's clay in
the Sewer River country, twenty miles
from Nephi, and farther south. Nephl
is the nearest convenient railroad point
to these beds, and it is customary to
freight clay much further than this and
| over much worse roads where queens
ware and similar products are manu-
featured. So that the Sentinel thinks
! announcement for good potters to es-
tablish business in Nephi is sufficient,
and success is guaranteed, as a market
| for their wares is waiting and the clay
| is equal to the best in the world.
Some time ago Mr.. Thomas Butler,
of Sewer, sent specimen of this clay to
some friends of his in East Liverpool,
Ohio; these friends worked up the clay
and pronounced it far superior to any
American clay they had touched and
equal to the best European clay that has
ever been imported. These friends are
three Standardization by name
| two of whom are at present managers of
different potteries and the third is
foreman, and all are we'll fixed as far as
| worldly goods are concerned and anx-
ious to come west. They are much taken
up with this clay and have written for
information regarding the prospects for
establishing their business. By consult
ing the maps and from other sources
they have determined upon locating in
Nephi, if anywhere, providing induce
ments are sufficient. Inducements and
encouragement could not be better. a
warm welcome and a guaranteed sue
cess awaits them.
