All over the state nature has eetoh
lished natural sanitariums in the
shape of hot mineral springs. Tbay
are found everywhere, from ST.
George on the south to Cache count,
on the north. In Salt Lake CITY Tho.
springs are located within the civ
limits, and in one instance the waters
are piped into the heart of town. There
are excellent springs at Virgin CITY. at
Monroe, at Ogden, at Grantsvile. and
in Wasatch county, besides others ton
numerous to mention. The waters of
these springs are very efficient in
many diseases, and in rheumatism
they are almost a certain cure for
every case. The waters of the Great
Salt Lake are especially invigorating
Containing over 20 per cent of solids
in the form of medicinal chemicals, a
bather comes from his bath with d.
feeling of regeneration, an improved
appetite, and a stimulated circulation.
No one who has ever contracted the
habit of bathing in this great inland
sea ever abandons it.
The attractions of the country are
wonderful beyond compare. Lofty
and rugged mountains, towering up.
ward from 5000 to $4,000 feet; their
tops covered with snow which never
entirely melts, form a pleasing con-
trast with the green valleys and
fiower-studded plains below. What

growing crops. The streams in the
canyons and the rivers and lakes in
the valleys are filled with fish, the
blass bass, (Which grow bigger than
, their brothers in eastern waters), the
, mountain trout, the sunfish and what
are known as mountain herring, but
which are specie of grayling, being
especially plentiful. The fisherman OF
: the east who fishes for brook trout
:, with reel, and coasts when he
catches one weighing half pound,
n ought to tangle up with a Bear River
!. trout which will pull down six pounds
