HORSE RAISING.

Recent purchases Of large num-
bers of horses from different parts of
Cache county have scattered through
out the county thousands Of dollars
that might not have found its way
here otherwise, and leads us to Sug-
gest that the farmers should keep
their eyes open along this line. In
many instances this spring, farmers
have been paid as high as $3.50 for a
good animal which they could do
without, and If this isn't like receiv-
ing money from home without asking
for it, then we are mistaken.
Farmers should bear in mind that
horses will be in demand for years to
come, and at good prices, for statistics
go to show that not enough colts are
raised to supply even the needs of the
great cities. Cache valley already has
a population for producing the best
horses In Utah, and if the people
would but realize this, money could
be made out of that same reputation.
No county in the state has a finer
class of thoroughbred stations, and
since it has been demonstrated that
by proper selection of the sire, even
small and cheap mares frequently
produce good, large horses, possessing
excellent qualities, farmers are max
ing Il mistake in not breeding their
mares 10 good stations. If you can
produce a pretty fair animal the repu.
tation the county already has will
help you sell the same for very good
price, for it is well known that an es.
tsblisShed name and reputation 80 far
toward making sale.
Cache county produces more good
draft horses than any other comfy In
the state, but there Is more money
to be made in raising good roadsters.
A good match team always commands
top-notch price, because the parties
using such teams are usually men of
means. Recently a match team was
offered in Logan for 5000. They were
driven outside of the county and in
consequence of the reputation en-.
joyed by the county they readily sold
for $500. There is an opportunity
here for all farmers with breeding an.
finals, and we are DESTROYS of en-.
couraging them to make out of it the
, money there is in it,

Admitting that trusts are detriment
to the country and a menace to its
freedom, and that the working man
could be favored more than he is, has
there ever been a time in the history
of this country when labor was so
universally employed? Was there
ever a time when the laborer could
command such excellent wages for
his work? The cost of living is prob
ably higher now than heretofore, but
when the workingman can get the
money to pay the increase he does not
kick-and the workingman Is not
kicking today. Under free trade leg
islation, the cost Of living was reduced
to a minimum, but 1t was impossible
for the workingman to secure enough
work or money enough to enable him
okeep soul and body together. IL pro-
lection does foster trusts 1t also pros
pers the working man, while free trade
accomplishes nothing but partial ruin

hilates the latter

who have boys large enough to work
should set them at it. Keep them Off

Were the statement to be made that
there is not crock to be bought in
any Of the stores In this city, 1t might
be doubted by some people, but practi-
cally this Is true. In summer months
there is large demand for them.
The question arises; 'why are not
more of them made in this locality?
A small pottery has been running in
Hyrum for over twenty years and has
always had more work than ii could
do. In some parts of this county the
soil is well adapted for the making of
pottery, and as freight on this line of
goods amounts to something, this
enterprise is one that is worth looking
into. Why should we be paying
freight on barnt soil after it is mold
ed when we have plenty here at our
own doors? The material to make
what We need In this line is in this
country, so why not export rather
than import? Imports impoverish,
experts make rich.

BY the use of modern machinery it
is said that common cowhide can be
sliced up into seven layers or thick
nesses, and then by scientific process
rubbed, worked and polished so that
1t has the appearance Of the finest calf
or kid-leather. This is a wonderful in
vention, and simply adds to the idea
that we are living in a progressive
age. For aught we know the shoes we
wear, and that give us good satisfac-
tion, too, may have been made from
some of this material. However, we
feel sure that II the cow hides can be
made into leather for shoes, some of
