UNION PAcIFIC PAMPHLET.

The Union Pacific has issued what
appears on the surface to be a very fine
advertising pamphlet of Wyoming and
its resources. But it is defective and
misleading in many places. For exam
pie it locates Casper, the thriving
county seat Of Natrona county, in the
east part of Carbon county. while as a
matter of fact Casper has not been in
Carbon county for nine years. 1t also
has a glowing article about Il Mountain
of Gold" four miles from the town Of
Encampment. that bears the ear marks
of the Hon. Willis George Emmerson,
which says that the wonderful richness
of this gold mountain continues to ex-
cite the wonder of mining experts
The pamphlet contains many good
things and will be u good advertisement
of the state and its wonderful resources,
but when one finds such glaring incon.
sistencies in it as above he is inclined to
doubt where he does not know its con.
tents to be true.

Our Present Prosperity.

There were many merchants,
manufacturers and others who did
not fully realize the prosperity in
nearly all kinds of business un-
til the present year. Their failure
to do 81 was remarkable. because
the uprising of demand and
the increase of expenditure neces-
sary to meet it appeared more
than two years ago.
1t is an old, old story that the
iron industry-which is now the
steel industry-is the barometer
of trade conditions. If this con-
tinues to hold true, the present
business boom is likely TO remain
with us well into the pext calendar
year-wbo may say how much
longer?
Never before has there been
anything like the present demand
for steel: and, fortunately, this
country is better equipped to meet
that demand than any of the com
peting nations. From the fact
that the United States is produc-
ing more than one million tons of
iron and steel "A month, and that
this metal is all to enter into the
construction of something else,-
from anchors to watch springs and
from railroad tracks, bridges, and
buildings to pen knives,-it is
plain that SO long as the existing
momentum characterizes the great
metal industries, the manufacture
ing section of the worlds busy
people promises extraordinary ac-
tivity for months and months to
come.
This is corroborated by the i'm.
provement in the financial condi.
ton of the agriculturists of the
country. With the man of the
soil and the artisan perspirini
freely in a rush for n share of the
prosperity the merchant has only
to step aboard the commercial.
train to be carried forward at {
like rate of progress. After these

Valuable Foreign Seeds.

Mr.. Jared Smith. one of the

which may prove interesting to
western farmers. They are mostly
from the arid regions of Siberia
and Russian Turkestan, country
i'll many respects resembling the
arid regious of the west. Among
them are hairy vetch, which is
drought and also cold resistent. a
variety of winter rye which is es.

of winter wheat. Most of these
seeds are thought to be suitable
to climates having extremes OF

which is thought to be very
drought resistant, is also available
