UTAH'S HUMORIST.
Among Salinas products of this year
should be mentioned "A Bunch Of
Carrots" a collection of funny stories
published by Arthur e. Howard, Utah's
Mark Twain. Howard came to Ogden
from Iowa and five years ago to Sallna,
where he edits the Salina Press.
The first settlers came to Salina in
1854, sent from Sanpete by Orson Hyde.
The only one of the very first pioneers
still living there is n. c. Rasmussen,
who has been a. school trustee for the
last 10 years Indians drove them
away but they returned in 1866. At
that time Saline creek, which now sup
plies the town with water, was kept
drv by the draughts made upon it by
% families.
Redmond is a small place just north
OF Salina. Its principal business con-
Germ is the Redmond Mercantile com
pany, which has $4,000 worth of stock
in a 81 500 building. Two new canals
are being built in that section, bust
ness is reported good this year, and
generally the town is flourishing.
