Weber County Prosperous.
]. e. Wright, who is connected with the
Utah exhibit as a special representative
of Weber county, Of which ogden is the
capital city. is full Of statistics. not only
concerning his community. but OF the en-
tire state. He can reel off facts by the
yard of the climatic conditions, agricul-
tural and horticultural pursuits. irrigation
and a hundred other things that are rap
idly bringing the state to the front, The
Omaha Bee Land Show writer had a little
talk with him and this is what he said:
Utah experiences a great variety OF
weather and climate, ranging from the
cold weather Of the mountains and ele-
waited valleys in the northern portion OF
the state, where the harder grains and
hay are the principal crops, to the mild
climate OF the lower valleys in the south
ern portion, where all fruits and vegeta-
bles of the temperate zone are easily
grown and some semi-tropical fruits do ex-
ceedingly well,
The mean temperature for the state is
about 40 degrees, ranging from about ~
degrees in the northern to IS degrees IN
the southern portion. July is the warmest
month, with mean temperatures ranging
from S2.2 degrees at st. George to SIS de-
grees at Heber The annual precipitation
ranges from 10 "a inches.
ION the whole. the climate in Utah is
not so severe as in the northern states
The air is dryer. In Utah one can with
stand better the cold Of winter tempered
as they are by occasional warm spells;
enjoy the summers, which, though warm,
are not enervating. the hot afternoons be-
ing followed by cool evenings, and pass
into an autumn which may be compared
20 a prolonged Indian summer.

basis is revealing mines Of riches for the
intelligent agriculturist
'The western half OF the state lies within
the Great basin; most OF the eastern half
of the state is in high plateaus OF char
acter similar TO the soils OF eastern Colo
RADIO, while the northeastern portion of
the state is mountainous and covered with
trees and grasses. In the Great basin por-
ton Of the state the soils have been formed
by the action of prehistoric Lake Bonnie
Vile, in which the soils Of the mountains
were washed and distributed TO depth
Of ten TO forty feet, showing in many
places uniform fertility. The high plateau
soils Of the eastern portion of the state
were formed by the shallow ocean which
at one time covered the territory and these
soils are similar in their nature to those
OF the Great basin country, with sub
soils as fertile as the upper surface. In
the mountainous regions the valleys are
filled with the washings from the noun
tains, and on account Of the compare
lively light rainfall, the natural fertility
of the soils has not been drained out.
Dry Farming.
Utah offers special inducements to pros
pective settlers under the enlarged home
stead act, whereby $50 acres Of the arid
land can be taken up by one citizen and
title obtained without residence by simply
placing one-haf of the tract under culu-
walton within five years.
DRY farming in Utah is no experiment,
for even IN 1910, a season OF unprecedented
dryness, there was not a single crop fall
ure where proper methods OF cultivation
were employed Thousands OF acres OF
| fertile lands, formerly regarded as value
less on account OF the light rainfall during
the growing period. have been added to the

CHRISTMAS CAKE FOR THE PRESIDENT San Antonio Woman Now Busily Engaged in Max
 ing Fruit Cake

Dallas, Tex, December 10,-The frait cake that President William H. Taft and his family will finish their 1911 Christmas dinner with is being baked by a Texas woman, Miss Hattie Brandenburger, 206 Jefferson street. San Antonio, where she has local reputation as a constructor Of rare and marvelously toothsome sweet meats which she is accustomed to present to her comestibily inclined friends and acquaintances by way of social amenity
 Last year Miss Brandenburger baked one of her fruit cakes and sent it to the President, though, as she says. she has been told he would not eat anything sent by a person unknown to him unless the food were first tested for poison. Much to the surprise of the little cake maker, Miss Brandenburger received note from Mrs. Taft herself, thanking the donor and telling how much the cake had been enjoyed, especially by the President who. fit seems, is dear lover of fruit cake.
 Lately Miss Brandenburger was more surprised than ever to receive a letter from Mrs. Taft expressing a desire for another cake and recalling the delight with which the other one was eaten. Of course, the Texas cake maker is only too delighted to comply with the request and the caKe is now in process of construc- tiOn

WILL TAKE RECESS
 DURING HOLIDAYS Congress Will Adjourn De- cember P and Reassem-
 ble January 3

Washington, December 10.-tSpeciaf)- According to a tentative agreement De- tween oscar Underwood and Senator Pen rose ins1 conference in New York last night, Congress will adjourn December 7 for the holidays. It will reassemble on January 3.
 MT. Underwood announced tonight that he has accepted an invitation to address the Southern society of New York next Saturday night. He has also accepted an invitation to address the Catholic club of New York on the following Tues day right. This will be the last speech he will make until after the closing of the session of Congress.
 He has received many insistent 1nVi- tations from all parts of the country to make addresses, but he has been com- pelled to decline. He feels that his en- tire time and attention should be given to his work in Congress, and will allow nothing to interfere with his duty here.
 He has not fully decided on the sub ject he will discuss before the Southern society next Saturday night, but he will probably discuss the tariff.
 While no tariff bills will be reported itno the House by the ways and means oommmittee before January, the com- mittee will probably hold two or three meetings and discuss the question pre- paratory to quick action after the Presi- dents message Is received or in January if the message has not been sent in.

BADLY HURT BY FALL FROM TRESTLE F. M. Sullivan Falls From Bridge at Riverside.
 Is Badly Hurt

Riverside, December 10.-(Special.)- )-F. the railroad bridge which crosses the Coosa river at this place yesterday aft ernoon shortly after o'clock. MT. Sul- livan was in the employ of the River side Brick company at East Riverside, just across the river from here as pump er After he had received his pay en- velope he proceeded home, and upon his arrival at the bridge to cross, after go- ing as far as the second pier, he became over-balanced and fell from the bridge down on a pile of stone that had been heaped around the pier by the contrac- tors.
 Dr. R. H. Puckett administered all as sistance possible to save his life. MT. Sullivan was rushed hurriedly to his home, where Drs. R. A. Martin and Ansle De Garris of Pell city and pr. John Rob erson of Seddon were summoned to assist Dr. Puckett in the operation. After a thorough examination in addition to his brain being crushed, a splinter of wood an inch wide and one and half inches long was discovered stuck through the skull and resting on the brain. For fear of his bleeding to death he was carried to Birmingham on the S3O train to Cope land & Solomon's infirmary for an oper- ation. Dr. Puckett returned this morn- ing from the hospital and reports that Mir Sullivan is resting well and in his opinion a successful operation was per- formed. and unless there is a sudden change he will recover very soon. MT. Sullivan is 72 years of age.

The merchants of First avenue between Nineteenth and Twentieth streets will be the next to see the lights of the Great White Way burning before their business doors as the posts are due to arrive next Friday morning.

Although there remains some unsettled matters from the season of 1911, partieu- larly the world series ticket scandal, the business of several big baseball meet ings here during the next three days will have to do with the new year in baseball.
