THAT NEW ROAD.

The board of county commissioners
of Weber county has found it neces-
sarv to go slowly in the matter Of
constructing a new county road up
ogden canyon. In their haste the COM
nissioners. as on numerous other occa-
sions, blundered and have had TO make
other arrangements. The law says
that no county road shall be con-
structed except on petition OF the Tree
holders of the vicinity through WniSh
the road is to run. AS before noteo py

The matter will probably be decided

Deseret, Utah. Nov. 27.-This locality,
which includes HinckIey and Oasis,
has struck a bonanza; not mining
bonanza, but one of the agricultural
variety. Each locality seems to be es-
pecially adapted to some special in
dustry, and that of Deseret and vicin-
ity is the raising of alfalfa seed. There
are certain conditions which are neces-
sary to the successful production of
alfalfa seed, the most important being
that of warm, dry climate, which
prevents the too rapid growth OF the
stems and branches and at the same
time induces a heavy production of
seed. Situated as this locality is,
about midway in the Pahvant valley,
which is here fully 80 miles wide, the
snow and rainfall is reduced to the
minimum and the dry summer weather
insures the growth of alfalfa seed 70

is no other crop that Will give such

with the result that between S25, 900
and $4,000 are this fall added to the
usual income of the agricultural class.
And when il is understood that alfalfa
can be successfully raised by the use
of the enormous surplus waters of the

of DlantinS, no labor other than irri-
eating, cutting, stacking, threshing,

past two years in betting on races than
have made in playing cards. The
times are bad for the kind of game l
like to play. 1 have found New Or
leans the best city in the south for men
of my business. but there are times
when a pile of money can be made
with little risk in Seattle and Ell Paso-
1t all depends upon the rules of the
game of the city you go into.
Where have you seen the best gam
bling?'
The most scientific and business-like
games 1 ever saw played in my life
time among gamblers were those on
best poker and faro players ever
known.
I remember one day in May of 1859
l was a cabin boy on the famous Rob-
ert Ward-the finest boat ever afioat
on the river and when we left New
Orleans there were aboard 200 of the
greatest faro dealers. horse-trotters
and an-around gamblers in America
Every one had money, for the racing
season had been a grand success, and
every one of the gamblers was on his
way to Saratoga or to the White Sui
phur Springs for a summer with the
New York and Philadelphia bloods.
The Robert Ward had hardly left the
dock at New Orleans when word was
passed around the boat among the
sports that several of the leading faro
dealing firms would open a big game
on board.
The games were opened a few hours
later, the tables were made ready and
the play commenced in earnest; for all
the passengers were sports in one sense.
and most of the passengers in another
sense were gamblers. and all had some
money Many of them had big sums
of money they had accumulated in
gambling or horse racing.
The white checks or markers were
of the finest ivory and worth So each;
the red checks were for $25, and the
blue represented $780, The players
hanos.d in their bundles of Kentucky
and Louisiana state bank notes in hun
dreds and thousands of dollars. and
quietly but determinedly placed their
bets upon the turn of a card. Not an
expression of disappointment at saeir
loss upon turn of card nor an eX-
preston. of eXultation escaped them at
winning. 1t was as quiet as a social
game in private parlor. Not a harsh
word or a ribald expression escaped
anyone as the play went on, but the
calm, silent determination of the play
ers to win. Thousand dollar bills on
the Canal Bank of New Orleans and
$500 bills issued by the Bank of Ken
turn of the cards.
Brand new $40 gold pieces were
more plentiful in the pockets of the
sports than are silver dollars today.
AS some of the players would feel that
a particular bank was dealing in big
luck, they would change of to another
table. Several of the dealers, when not
dealing at their own tables. would try
a few thousands against other tables.
No wine or other stimulant was i'm
bibed by the players to brace up their
nerves, for they were all major gen
erals of the green cloth and they
played to win. They knew what they
were doing; they knew how they had
made their money, and before them
were seated men of the same expert
ence-men of great capital, who could
and would lose their thousands of dol
lars and give the loss only a moment

reached and another watering place or
another racing season was opened"
