JOS. "A. SILVER.
Jos. A. Silver is supervisor of agri-
cultural machinery and minerals. THE
display of the former covers whole
acres and needs no explanation" says
Mr. Silver. Mining interests have
neglected putting in any show, but the
wonder expressed by thousands this
year has showed plainly that Utah's
chief industry should have q big show

more entries in this year and finer
i specimens than I dreamed could come

animals will agree with me, that the
horse show this year would do justice
to Kentucky, noted for it's fine horses

in my department every day this week
No wonder the aristocratlc animals held

found it SO difficult to choose among
the animals that their decisions were

Utah can stand with any state in the
breeding of fancy horse varieties. This
