AN IMPORTANT BUSINESS CHANGE.

AN IMPORTANT BUSINESS CHANGE.
 A new dry goods syndicate will have possession of the w. B. Hall & Go. store in the Sanford building on and after May l, next, and will consolidate that store with the store now occupied by J. c. Rowland as a shoe store. The two stores will be united by an ample opening in the south wall of the Rowland store, and while the shoe stock will be retained in it's present position, the stores will all be united in one large establishment, under one control. The concern is a stock company, organized under the laws of the state. of Connecticut, and will be known as "The Rowland, Cow & Stark company. :" It's capital stock will be $125, ,000, of which very large proportion has been already paid in. The officers of the company are: J. G. Rowland, president; William Stark, vice president, ard William Cow, secretary. Mr Rowland is too well known in the Park city to need any in- troduction here, and the fact that he is president of the new company insures it's competent and through business man. agement. MT Cows connection with the Syndicate trading company of New York has given him high standing in the business world, and an experience worth a great deal to any firm with which he may be associated, while Mr Stark, who was originally from Boston, but has had a long connection with one of the greatest dry goods houses of the West, is throughly posted in the bus mess, and, altogether, the new firm is a strong one, and will begin business under favorable auspices. What ar engagements will be made about em- ployes is not known now, but the new firm has received numerous applications for all the positions which will be with en it's gift and will be enabled to select corps of assistants competent to fill the bill in every respect.

FEW PERTINENT SUGGESTIONS.
 Some of our local gardeners have planted their early peas. We imagine this cold spell will not be especially beneficial to them. For those desiring this succulent vegetable, we would suggest for early the Premium Gem, tor later pea two excellent varieties are the Dwarf Champion and the Yorkshire Hero None Of these varieties need great deal Of pushing, but few small bushes will help them. The small hard peas advertised as being specially early are of little account. Peas, like all garden stuff, need plenty of ter tilizers but care should be used not to allow it to come in contact with the seed. In plant ing we prefer to SOW in a trench and fill in gradually, especially if the soil be light and sandy Some have very good results from putting two or three inches of horse manure in the bottom of the trench and covering sui ficiently with the top soil. We think this is especially desirable when the planting is made very early before the ground is warmed by the sun.
