Milford, March 15.-The records snow
that the settlements in southern Utah
are getting more freight this season
than ever before in the history of the
country, while the mining camps of
Nevada are getting less. Phoebe, Pa
naca and De Lamar, the three places
that received the greater part of the
shipments last season, are behind this
time. 1t is an established fact that
there is substantial and enduring
growth in the southern part Of Utah,
founded on agriculture and stock rails

paIlS here reports that their forward
ing business is increasing rapidly in all
of the southern settlements and fall

the shipments to Stateline and Deer
Lodge are greater this year than last,
and are still improving.
The outgoing shipments from south
ern Utah, which consist in the mala of
fruit. nuts, wool, cattle, etc, are on
the increase yearly, and this year the
dried fruit alone went out by the car
load. The almonds were a great yield
this year, and can be bought here at
N.E'rd fer 5 cents. per pound in small
GUanliues.
The shipments of well pipe into the
ParoWan valley nave been enormous
this season. and Milford has handled
miles of this material Near Beaver
