Recent Visit Creates Opinion
That Western Fields Will

Considerable interest has been aroused
In the visit, or reported visit: 10 Salt

tors are said to represent one OF the
three great phosphate companies OF the
country. but which one could not be
learned. They held frequent conferences
with prominent local interests who doubt
less can be of the most service to them
in the development OF the western phos
phate deposits.
These deposits. officially termed the
known, are located In the states of Utah
Idaho and Wyoming. and while a great
area has been withdrawn by the govern
ment there is at the same time an enor-
nous acreage held by various people. 1t
has been held in the past that there is

shipped cast economically enough TO
compete with the middle west and eastern

thought to have resulted in different
conviction, and as soon as the compli-
has been Strengthened out. one OF the
trusts Will begin the exploitation OF these
western deposits. manufacturing the fer
tiliZer in or near the field itself. There
is no way Of ascertaining who these visl

know assert that they mean business. and
that they will open an entirely new and
