WALKER FINDS BUSINESS
CONDITIONS SATISFACTORY

Reviewing the business conditions OF
the week M. H. Walker. president Of
Walker Brothers, bankers, said:
"The wool clip has been pretty we'll
marketed. and the receipts from 1t are
flowing into the channels OF trade. Money
is easier, and there is plenty for all legi-
innate demands OF trade,
Good reports as TO the crops In the
intermountain regions continue to come
in. This is especially true OF dry farm
wheat. Some OF our correspondents say
that many OF the dry farms will yield
an average OF 80 to 40 bushels OF wheat
TO an acre, while some will so over 30
bushels.
This Is having an effect on the coun-
try merchants but most OF them are still
wisely pursuing conservative policy as
to purchasers The wholesale merchants
as a rule are not encouraging extensive
purchases. and the small merchants are
buying from hand to mouth at the pres
ent time, Nevertheless, the wholesalers
report an increased volume OF business.
forced by the legitimate demands of the
consumers. When the crops arc har-
vested there will be general cleaning up
OF credits and the outlook is for plenty
OF money and large mercantile business
throughout the intermountain region.
This Will naturally have its effect on Salt
Lake City"

FIND HEALTHY CONDITION
IN REAL ESTATE MARKET

Business has been very brisk with
the real estate department Of the Salt
Lake Security G. Trust company during
the past week, A number of large deals
consummated will be reported during
the coming week, There is far more ac-
tivity in the realty market now than
has been the case for some time. This
is especially true with regard TO the
northeast bench, where there Is a big
demand for property. In this section OF
the city the Salt Lake Security a. Trust
company has built large number OF
fine, attractive bungalows Of various
sizes, and these are being sold rapidly.
The gradual improvement in condi-
tions in the financial world naturally
has had n tendency to stimulate trade
in the realty market. Ready cash is
available and the prospects for big
summer and fall business is all that
could be desired.
1t is an undisputed fact that the real
estate prices at the present. time are
exceptionally low, and continuance OF
anything like the present demand for
city property will undoubtedly result
in n substantial advance in prices

Reports From Various Parts of
State Give Promise of
Good Returns.
WHEAT GOOD WHERE
PROPER METHODS USED
Turkey Red Variety of Wheat
Proving Better Adapted to
Utah Than Any Other.

Upon his return from tour of in
spection Of the dry farming districts
of the state, Prof. l.. A. Merrill, direc-
tor of the extension work of dry farm
ing, is more than pleased with the gen,
eral crop conditions. In addition to his
trip over the state, Professor Merrill
has received numerous reports from
dry farmers and without an exception
all report a better than average yield
Of wheat, notwithstanding the drought
that struck certain parts OF the state.
In no section does wheat need more
moisture to mature the crop. Harvest
ing has started in several sections of
the state and from now on the reapers
will be in evidence until the biggest
crop in the history of the state is cut.
fDry farming in Utah is rapidly
reaching stage where a crop failure
is hardly possible. That is, complete
failure said Professor Merrill in com.
menting on the advance being made.
Farmers have had uniform success this
year where they have given the soil the
proper treatment. Summer fallowed
land is producing heavy crops, In some
parts Of the state where conditions have
not been over favorable wheat will
make 80 to 40 bushels to the acre and
fair average of the state taken as n
whole will be % bushels to the acre
On account Of the exceptionally good
average yield and the increased acreage
the wheat crop of Utah this year will
be the heaviest ever known in the
state. The crop in bushels will exceed
last years crop by many thousands of
bushels. The quality Of the grain this
year is excellent. In contributing to
the general wealth of the state, prod
ucts from dry farms must be considered
as big factor in the future.
"The only fields Of wheat I have
seen that will fall under the average
were where improper methods were used
in preparing the ground and in the
failure to observe proper rotation of
crops On the dry farming experiment
tai farms wheat will yield far ahead of
last year which goes to show that we
are working out better methods all the
time
Professor Merrill will leave the first
Of the week on another inspection trip
which will take him to the southern
part Of the state.

Selling real estate In hot weather,
according to realty dealers, is not easy.
The last week has proved this. While
dealers had strong list of prospects
to show property the weeks business
was curtailed on account of the hot
weather. However, at that, dealers put
through a number Of deals and found
inquiries increasing. Probably the most
encouraging sign Of the last week or so
in realty circles has been the Increased
interest shown by short-time visitors
to Salt Lake
In the last week number Of real
estate dealers have received visits
from the tourists and as result list
of inquiries of this nature has started.
From the questions asked and the In
terest shown it appears that Salt Lake
property has found favor as an invest
ment with wealthy fasteners who ara
desirous Of investing. Dealers have
been encouraged to follow up the ad
vantage.
Bench residence property ID at its
best on the market at this time on ac-
count of desire to reach the cooler
and higher sections of the city. The
summer weather has brought many pros
pective home owners to a realization OF
the advantages Of the high bench prop
critics as homesites. AS result, pros
pective buyers have asked the dealers
promoting these properties to take them
over the additions. Tho inquiries start
ed the first of the week resulted In
many cases In sales before the end
Of the week.
From all indications there will be q
squirt in the building line in the next
sixty days. Early fall has been select

with the stipulation that they be I'm
ished and ready for occupancy by late

While the week has seen a rather
dull general market some lines have
been stronger. On the whole tho hot
weather has postponed several deals.
Business property has not changed
