Salt Lake viii offer for sale two OF
her most valuable pieces of real estate
during the next week. The old Expo
sition square, running from Sixth to
Seventh East and from Fifth to Sixth
South, and the old city hall corner on
State and First South streets will be
sold to the highest bidders, according
to a resolution passed by the city coun-
Gil.
Major F. N. Foote of Evanston is a
guest at the Cullen. He says that the
winter has been mild in southwestern
Wyoming, and that livestock have all
done well. AS for the oil excitement,
the major believes that within short
time two wells at least will strike
good flow of oil. But at present the oil
men are saving great deal of wood
and having little to say.
Representatives millers say that
there is now in Salt Lake enough flour
10 supply the local demand for the
coming six months. But a series Of
heavy shipments of northwestern
wheat into this market are expected in
about week owing to the renewed 40
cent rate on the grain. 1t is claimed
mat the northwestern millers will pay
no attention to this differentiation be-
tween the wheat and -four rates. as
they have all they can attend to in
supplying their Pacific coast and Ash
attic orders, so that this little furry in
Utah is of no special moment to them.
Utah millers say that northwestern
wheat is not so good as the Utah pro
duct, but as there is no Utah product
this year, most anything will have to
do.
