SECOND BIRTHDAY
OF WALDO
WAS SUNDAY

Sunday marked the second anni-
yersary of the Waldo hotel. Iii
opened February 4, 1904, for husi-
ness. Owing to serious Illness in
Judge Nathan COTS family there
was no special celebration Of the
day Sunday, Judge Goff being the
owner Of the hotel.
The Waldo started out on the
European plan, exclusively, but a
year ago to better meet the demands
of the trade added the American
plan. The business has increased
more than one hundred percent since
then, not particularly because Of
adding the American plan but rather
on account Of improved general bnsi-
ness conditions in this section, and
today it is doing a very paving busi-
ness.
Clarksburg takes infinite pride in
this magnificent hotel, as its equal
is not found in the state. and in but
few OF the larger cities west Of the
Allegheny mountains. In this con-
nection il is not out Of place to call
attention to the fact that this great
hotel has done and is doing great
service to Clarksburg. In days
gone by it was difficult to induce d
convention Of any kind, or any gath
ering of significance to come here
owing to the lack Of hotel facilities.
Even big federal court cases were
taken to other places rather than
brought to Clarksburg, simply on
that account. But since the Waldo
opened there has been decided
change in this respect and Clarks-
burg has been taking on the snatnre
of a convention city. Distinguished
men come here to attend federal
court noss and they find il 4 pleasure
to stop at the Waldo.

NEEDED AGRICULTURAL REVIVAL
Intelligent Methods of Husbandry Augment

tional conferences and the education
boards can perform no more worthy
service than 10 promote campaign
for better farming in every state OF the
Union. II would be an educational and
patriotic. as well as an economic, cam
paign, for fat land with a wealthy
agricultural population means an intel
llgent community, able and willing to
support good schools, conservative and
faithful to the duties OF citizenship. be-
cause 1t has much to lose from bad
government.
Utah, with Its educational forces,
should be a leader In this movement
for better and more intelligent husband
ry. II has too many half titled fields
and too many farmers who wonder II
farming is worth while, simply be-
cause they do not really know how to
farm.
With the educational impetus given
agriculture in some of the higher
schools OF the state the business os
porous vocation In Utah. AS shown
above, the most potent reason for
young men OF ability leaving the
farm is that other lines OF en-.
deavor offer better remuneration, with
better opportunities for mental growth
and advancement which this affords.
Given plenty OF employment on the
farm, with hours Of labor regulated on
business principles. and the opppr-
tunity TO earn as much on the farm
as elsewhere, few boys and men would
leave the farm for the store, mine,
workshop or railroad. with the at
fractions OF good pay and less drudg-
cry, the movement would rather be
from the city to the farm.
The Utah agricultural college and the
Brigham Young college at Logan, al
so the Brigham Young university at
Provo, have large classes In agricul-
iure, and are doing mtich a exalt
farming to higher plane. and to aug
ment the earning power of the farmer.
Such instruction Is given the students
as will enable them to do better
In farming than can be done in any
other legitimate line OF business. with
the opportunities now offered In many
advanced agricultural lines. such as
dry farming, fruit growing. animal
hnsbandry and sugar beet raising, few
businesses offer more alluring Induce
ments.

T HE desirability of maintaining
a prosperous and intelligent ru-
raj population in this country
Is generally recognized The
condition OF the nation would he
neither politically nor economically
sound, the New York Tribune editor
holds, II the population were so con-
gested In the cities as to destroy the
reasonable balance of conservatism
and radlcalism, put our government
at the mercy Of the restless, unrooted
native and foreign elements which
congregate in Industrial centers. and
leave these centers without the ade-
uuate agricultural background on
which their healthy life must depend.
The Tribune editor seems to think
with many other strong thinkers that
the nation needs strong recruits from
the farm to carry on the great work
of the day in all lines Of political and
economic activity. There is much mis-
placed sorrow, he continues. over the
drift from the farm. We want drift
from the farm In just the measure
that the farm over1ows with men and
women needed elsewhere. But we
also want the farm to continue to de-
velop strong intelligent people and
to hold Its own as an attractive aeld
for a fair proportion OF them. How
II can be made to do this Is the prob
lem. Some have thought to do Il by
rural free delivery, telephones and
other appliances to make the farmer
contented with an approach TO the
convenience of life in cities The
true solution Is not, however pallia-
ton. II does not consist In making
young men and women think they are
having as good time as people in
the city, but In making II possible for
them to earn more than they could
in the city. Prof, Knapp. who has
done so much TO convert the boil Wee
vii from a curse to a blessing In some
southern states, put the point square,

rural depopulation would continue as

In spite Of its richness, great care
must be given to drainage In Iowa

gent cultivation. In Iowa there are
