During the past two weeks,
or since the 27th, of December,
business has been almost sus
peHded. The first snow Of the
season began to fall on the 9th
of Dec. and some of the snow is
upon the ground yet, while il
has been argument several
times since. It is said that
much snow during the winter is
q sure sign Of a good wheat
crop the following summer.
We hope this is true. If the
bugs, and other insects, sur
vivs the cold snap we have just
passed through, the crop viii
be considerable this summer.

Leaving Homes to Come to Town
We know of q few instances

prevalent throughout the land
that we cannet live unless we
make.a great surplus of money
and keepit lying all about US.

supply all our needs, but if we
have corn, wheat, cabbage, po-s
tatoss &C., for . year in adj
vance, and these things are
what all good farmers will strive
to have, we need but little mon
ey if our debts are paid, and q
good farmer can pay his debts
from the products of his farm,
as easily as the day laborsr who
works for cash, and gets his pay
every Saturday evening.
In town his rents are from one
to four dollars por week, his
wood, while using the strictest
economy, not less than one dol.
lar and a half per week during
the winter. Every thing he eats
is to buy. An extra tax is to
be paid for the privilege of liv-
ing in town-so when all these
things are taken into considers.
ton we linda deficit in eur
bank instead Of an extra dollar.
The people about town work
early and late to make ends
meet and then very frequently
come out behind. If the coun.
tryman will put in six hours
each day during the year al
steady werk he viii find at the
end of the same a greater sur

Some farmers spend two OF
three days Of each week in town
and GO hons with the dslusion
that town people have nothing
to do. Think over these things
before you conclude to leave q
good country home.

Local Failures for January.

Following Is Bradstreet's report OF
business failures in Utah during the
month Of January;
During the month OF January, 1898,
there we're twonty failures in Utah, with
liabilities OF sg22, 5iJ, aud actual assets OF
sil0,i25.
In the corresponding month Of last year
there were ton failures with liabilities OF
$4,000 aud assets sG2,s50. Tho inctcaso
IN very heavy, apparently, but 1. In fact
represented largely by ono failure, tho
liabilities Of which assumed cxtfnordi-
narily large proportions for this coinmu-
nifty. Leaving this out, n comparison
shows that although tho failures have
been greater In number, thoy were prin.
clpaliv OF the smaller class and would
not affect the general tenor OF business.
