following address. ordered by the direc-
tors, at the last meeting of the society:
To the People of Utah Territory:
The directors of the Deseret Agricul- |
tural and Manufacturing society have an
nounced the Territorial fair for 1894; ana
notwithstanding the temporary financial
depression they have faith that it will
prove a gratifying success. The enterprls- |
ing citizens OF Utah have shown IN the
numerous exhibits to which they have
recently contributed, that this territory
can and will do herself justice in all that
she undertakes. The Worlds fair, Mid
winter fair and the Industrial faiIs nave
territory was, not found wanting in any
particular.
TWENTY-ONE YEARS OLD.
Now comes the Utah Territorial fair,
to US than any of the others, because it
will be the whole territory's exposition,
showing our progress in agriculture, man
ufactureS, mining, art and education.
It is the aim of the society to bring to-
gether at its twenty-first exhibition this
year--the year of it's manhood-an exhibit
of home products surprising in excellence
anything yet seen in this territory And
why should we not succeed IN this aim
We have the experience of our own twenty
EDITIONS, and we can profit by the lessons
learned. OF course it would be useless
to attempt to initiate, even on a small
millions. or one which cost several nun
dred thousands of dollars; but with the
means, and space at our command 1t IS
possible to raise the standard of excel
lence, materially increase the number of
exhibits, and make the fair more educa-
tional in it's character by paving greater
| But the success desired cannot be
brought about by the directors alone. 1t
rests with the people. It must have the
support of the stock raiser. the farmer.
the miner. the artist, the school and the
fancy worker. They must bring together
their products and we appeal to them at
prepare their exhibits so that in October
they will be ready to make a. satisfactory
showing Do not leave it until the fair
| is opened, for it will then be too late.
SPECIAL PREMIUMS.
One of the greatest helps to the fair is
! the custom of our merchants and citi-
zens of offering special premiums for arti-
Giles of home production. With our limited
coed without continuation of this gener-
| osity so willingly manifested on the part
Of our citizens. 1t is particularly needful
at this time when so much is being urged
in behalf of our home manufactures. Be
sides, the directors desire to make this de-
partment of the fair a crowning culnirla-
| ton of the present home goods" agita-
ton.
One of the bylaws of the society pro-
| vides that persons nay be admitted to
life-membership upon payment OF the sum
of SIS, and certificate of such member
ship shall be issued to them by the secre-
tary, which certificate shall entitle the
admitted himself and also to make entries
at the exhibitions Of the, society, without
extra charge. In earlier days. when
money was scarce, the privileges of life
membership were secured by most of our
prominent citizens, but of late very few
names have been added to the list. The
directors desire to call the attention of the
people to this matter and urge the pur-
chase Of these life certificates; They are
living diplomas of honor, and show the
holders concern in Utah's enterprises.
The funds derived from the sale of these
certificates are used in offering premiums
to exhibitors of home products.
A STIMULATING AGENCY.
In closing it will be unnecessary for us
lating agency for home manufactures
The great good derived from our exhibit
tons has always been impressed upon
the minds of the people of this territory
and all civilized nations now acknowledge
the power and value of their exhibitions
as aids in the promotion OF industrial arts
and in the development of natural re-
sources.
By order of the board of directors of the
Deseret Agricultural and Manufacturing
society. JOHN R. WINDER,
President.
GEORGE D. PIPER, Secretary.
