agreeable, depends, aside from its latitude,
for the most part upon the modifying infu-
ence of its topography upon the atmos-
pheric movements that have come from the
direction of the Pacific coast The sunny
skies, the absence of excessive precipita
tien and the lack of the bowling ''blizzard"
are all accounted for by the above state
ment, and it once thoroughly fixed in the
mind we can readily find a reason why the
climate of Utah is arid, and, later on,
why 1t is agreeable also. Its geographical
position is such that for large portion of
the year the great atmospheric storms are
sweeping so far to the northward and east
ward that they have little or no effect in
producing precipitation. During the re-
malnder of the year, corresponding to the
'wet'' season of the Pacific coast states,
the general storm is in a lower lati-
tude. and some even pass directly over US,
but the high mountain ranges far to the
westward have precipitated most of the
storms moisture, leaving US but gentle
showers in the valleys, while the mountain
tops collect their caps of snow, which fur
nish the certain water supply for the fol-
''wet' season, it is not very wet, for the
precipitation in the inhabited districts of
the territory only ranges from 5 to 20
inches annually. At Salt Lake City,
which will give a general idea of
the precipitation in the Salt Lake
valley, it is 16.5 inches annually. 1t is
greatest along the Wasatch chain and owe r
the plateaus in the central and southern
part. Here observations have been few,
under the direction of the government, have
recently been begun which will eventually
secure this knowledge.
We have seen that the climate is essen
TALLY arid. And located in the middle of
the temperate zone, its valleys and plateaus
from 1000 to 1900 feet in altitude, and pro-
tected by high mountain ranges, Utah nat
urally has mild and salubrious weather
The general absence of storms gives clear
skies and dry atmosphere, while the tonic
effect of high altitude is well-known.
Solar and terrestrial radiation both play
a very prominent part in making up Utah
weather. On account of the general ab-
sence of storm areas, sunshine during the
day goes on uninterruptedly; for the same
reason, as soon as the sun gets low,
radiation from the earth goes on at a
rapid rate and the temperature falls de-
cidedly until morning, giving consider
able diurnal range. This feature is very
pleasant one in the hot season, for bed
clothing is never oppressive, and the
nights are perfect for sleeping.
AS regards temperature, we may notice
three distinct regions in Utah. First, the
valleys on the eastern side of the Great Salt
Lake, with mean annual temperature OF
so degrees to slightly above; second, the
great plateau region, with an annual mean
below so degrees; and third, the extreme
southwest portion of the territory, with
an annual mean from 30 to 90 degrees.
At St: George, in the latter region, the
summer temperature sometimes reaches as
high as lis degrees on the hottest day; on

very few winter days does the tempera-
ture fall below the freezing point, and
never below zero; Is degrees is the lowest
minimum in the last three years. u
occurred in January, 1890. The winters
there are most delightful, and well adapted
to persons IN delicate health.
The normal temperature of the greater
part of Utah is about the same as that Of
Pennsylvania and New York. At Salt
Lake city the January normal il
IS degrees, that of the coolest day
in the month being "a degrees.
The February normal is SO degrees, and
of the coolest day 30 degrees. The normal
for July is 76 degrees, and for the hottest
day rs degrees; for August, rs degrees,
for the hottest day, 70 degrees.
In only six years since 1874 has the TEN.
perature reached as high as 100 degrees
on the hottest days. The highest record is
102 degrees, on July 80, 1889.
In only six years since 1874 has the tenn
perature gone below zero on the coolest
days. The lowest recorded is 20 degrees
below Zero on January 20, 1888.
The percentage of rainy days or the
probability of rain is greatest in January
and FEBRUARY, being % per cent, and the
least in June and September, being 10 and
9 per cent, respectively. In 1890, at Salt
Lake city. there were only sixty-seven
days on which rain fell April has the
greatest average precipitation, being 2.3s
inches at Salt Lake, and July, the least,
O.51 inches.
For the most part the sky is free from
clouds, as may be judged from the follow
ing: In April, the cloudiest month, the
percentage of cloudiness is 40; ia June, the
sunniest month, the percentage is only %.
The corresponding cloudiness in New York
for the cloudiest month is Il per cent. for
the least cloudy, AZ per cent.
The first frost of the season usually &C.
ours in September or October. 1t has oc-
Cured as early as August 30 and as late as
November 5, at Salt Lake city. The last
frost in spring has been as early as March
3, and as late as May is.
1t is often said that our winters at Salt
Lake city are ''but six weeks long" This
| is true or untrue, according to one's views
of what constitutes winter" If ws
mean extremely cold, unpleasant weather,
with an abundance of ice and snow, Utah
has, in the inhabited valleys, little winter,
| indeed. But weather which cannot be
called summer, nor spring, nor fall (unless
''very late in the fall''), begins in Novem-
Der, and while there are many open spells,
it lasts until the middle of March.
Though snow in considerable quantity
falls, il does not remain on the ground
long, and the cold of the frostier days is
not penetrating, on account of the dryness
of the air and the absence of strong winds.
In the valleys the wind seldom blows for
any considerable time with a greater We.
locity than 20 miles per hour; the average
velocity is very much less

TREE GROWING.
One important branch of business,
though long tabooed and subject to ridicule,
was that of tree raising. Hemingway al
most died at it. Then came Woodbury.,
Wagstaff, Fenton, Staines, Oliphant and
Stariey, in the south. To these and few
others, non professional, we are in
debted for all our fruit, and to President
Houng's foresight in planting what is
now known as Liberty park with locusts,
this city has been indebted for its grateful
shade, and much of that wooded beauty
which has caught the eve of every traveller
These branches might be extended and
many names of those who experimental
and worked could be added to the list; for
the iron, cotton, lumber, wooden, leather,
sugar, fruit, cheese, implements, soap,
shoes. are no more needed now, than then,
and most likely in the annual review of
Utah's progress which TIE HERALD has
prepared for several years, all the details
of our present product will be understand
ingly tabulated.
GENERAL ITEMS.
In the fall OF 1856 the first fair was held
In this city, under the auspices of the
Deseret Agricultural and Manufacturing
society. This fair was noted for its display
of home manufactured goods. Everything
herein referred to was presented and
and rewarded in accordance with the
ability Of the society, and there were
not few products, as the old lists of
award would show, which the limits of
this article cannot give in de tail, although
st may be stated that woman's work made
up considerable of that exhibit, and in the
line of fine quilts no fair has equaled Or
been as noted as the first. In fact, home
manufacture was booming, or William
Eddington could not have projected, car
ried on so long, or kept so well supplied
his then famous exchange for home made
goods in the premises now occupied by the
DeSeret NelCS, but this venture of an indi-
vidual went with home manufacture gen
orally, to the winds, with the coming of
the army and "the move south"

and cheap, and it has been demonstrated
that Utah potatoes are unexcelled for

company to be the best examples OF their
work ever turned out. They each con-
tain twelve sections OF two double berths
and two drawing rooms. Movable in
candescent lights are attached to each
section, in order to allow one to lie in
berth and read In one of these sleeping
cars is BATH room for ladies. The din
ing car, besides containing ten tables, at
which forty people can dine at once, also
contains kitchen large enough for four
cooks to work at once. An observation
car will bring up the ear. The body is
an open sitting room, finished in hard
wood and furnished with upholstered
rattan arm chairs and lounges. Among
its conveniences are writing desk, d
large case of selected books, movable
tab es and an upright piano. But the
main feature of tho Car, and the one
which gives it its name, is the deep re-
cess at the rear of the car The platform
will accommodate about twenty persons.
In the forward portion of this car will be
a small office, which will be occupied by
a stenographer and type writer, whose
duty it will be to write and mail the let
tiers OF any or all the tourists gratis.

A Remedy for Cut Worms.

Cut worms are the caterpillar of night
flying moths. Most of them are very in
furious to young and tender plants, such
as cabbage, tomato, peppers, corn, beans,
etc. They only work at night, and dur
ing the day remain hidden just under the
surface OF the ground in the immediate
vicinity OF their food plants or pastures.
Many of the species climb trees, and
often become very destructive to the OK
banding buds and young foliage. The
moths of the species that infest our gar
dens usually lay their eggs near the roots
of perennial plants, such as rhubarb.
hollyhock, etc., and in the vicinity OF
such plants we may confidently expect
to find plenty of young cut worms in the
spring. One of the easiest ways to get
rid of the pest, says a correspondent in
Popular Gardening, is to scatter pieces OF
green stuff, cabbage leaves. or sods with
fresh grass, ETC., that have been sprinkled
with Paris green water, here and there
over the area that we wish to clear of cut
worms. Hand picking is a more labori-
GUS remedy, but it can be made effective.
Pillow the field, few weeks before the in
tended crop is to be planted, and SOW
some beans over the piece. After the
beans are up, the patch should be gone
over early every morning, and the cut
worms hunted up near the freshly cut
plants, and destroyed, If this is done
for week or so, there will be few worms
left to trouble the crop to be planted
afterward. The worms can also be
starved out of a piece Of land or orchard
by growing several successive crops OF
buckwheat on it, and allowing no other
plant or weed to grow for an entire sea-
son. When mature, the larva enters the
ground, where it forms an oval smooth
cavity, within which it changes to a
chrysals OF deep mahogany brown
color, pointed at the extremity. These
chrysalides are often turned up in large
numbers when the ground is plowed.
Birds of all kinds, and even domestic
fowls, are very fond of these chrysalides
Gas many of them are also of the larva),
and many are thus destroyed by their
enemies, to whose view they are exposed
