FOR UTAH-MADE GOODS

! The Manufacturers Association of
Utah is moving with commentators
NIgor INTO persistent campaign for
the purpose Of Increasing the use of
utab-madc goods here Early in Jan.
uary there occurred reorganizat ton of
Inc Old Manufacturers and Merchants
association. and the new organization
is the result, having for its officers and
directors some of the most prominent
business men and manufacturers in the
State.
Perhaps it has been somewhat more
difficult TO establish manufacturing and
kindred institutions in Utah than in
many other parts of the country. For
many years the matter Of transporta.
ton facilities acted as a practical bar
against them; and there were other
physical conditions which went A LONG
way toward hindcring much branching
out IN these directions. In spite of the
obstacles, however, some men of cour.
age entered upon the good work ard
labored through years Of pinching cir
cumstances in order to maintain their
concerns until such time as surround.
ing Improvement and prograss would
enable them to realize living profit from
their investment and thrift For this
reason there should be an effort upon
the part of all citizens to encourage the
purchase and uso Of home products
and manufactures; and it gives The
Tribune pleasure TO sec that the new
organization has determined TO promote
the idea with such forcefulness as must
ultimately bring desired results. Sec
retary ID. l.. Collett, who has lust taken
charge of that position, has been in
structed TO make a comprehensive dis
tribution of literature with view TO
enhstlng interest in home manufactures
and home products. He is a newspaper
man of considerable service, and his
training i'll that vocation should fit
INN to the purpose Of publicity to great
advantage to the association. Utah is
capable of vastly greater productive
ness and manufacturing output than at
present realized, and il is hoped that
the Manufacturers association wil be
able 10 80 broaden thc market for homo
goods that there shall he complete abb
sorption of the increased output that
is now bound TO come with the ad
yaDcement that has set in along all
other lines
1t will be remembered that in the
early part of April the association held
what was called prosperity week, -
during which time there were splendid
exhibits Of Utah products and manu-
facturcs. At that time it was realized
that so much of good had been accom-
plisbcd by this exposition Of Utah IS
possibilities that it was decided to have
another and similar period of display
later on. So it has been arranged for
August, and TO be had at tho time the
Grand Army National encampment is
to be held in this city-August 9th to
18th From this exposition it is ex
pected that much benefit may be real
lzed on account of the publicity that
will be given to Utah goods among
people from other parts Of the country
