Vile through this magnificent Govern
ment enterprise.
Private and corporate reclamation
plans have been prolific during the
year, and much good will eventually
result from these. The State affords
many opportunities for good and
profitable irrigation enterprises, and
these in time will undoubtedly all be
taken advantage of, and the conserva-
ton of resources made complete.
There is abundant water in the State
TO irrigate not only all the land now
under cultivation, but by the careful
outstanding of the water and the sci
entifie application of it to tho soil,
there is opportunity to double the
area of titled land under irrigation.
The spirit OF enterprise and progress
is abroad, and undoubtedly will in
time bring within the titled area of
Utah every available acre, and so
vastly increase our agricultural yield
that we shall be an empire within our
selves, self-supporting, and triumph

The total value Of agricultural pro
ducts, including livestock, produced
during the year is put at S9,500,000 900.
It has been fairly summarized that
the United States produces S5 per cent
Of tho world s cotton, clothing more
than onc-half Of the worlds popula
tion. The years production Of wheat
flour estimated at 117,00o,o00 barrels,
established new world g record.
"Most of this flour was hauled from
tho point of production to consumption,
1000 miles, at extremely low water
andrailroad transportation cost, so that
from the wheat field to the bake oven
and the table the labor of only seven
men is required to make sufficient
bread for 1000 persons during the year.
In wheat the United States produces
one.fourth Of the world IS production; !;
in corn She puts forth more than all
the world besides, and consumes most
of it on farms within her borders. She
puts forth 40 per cent OF the world s
tobacco, and in manufactures there
from all markets are supplied"
The time when the United States was
a great food.exporting country has
passed. We need the most Of our food
products for our own swiftly-increasing
population; but the crops Of the present
year have been so abundant that the
exports Of foods have taken on some
thing like the old proportions this
year.

prices have ruled so high that the

THE BANKS HAVE PRoSPERED

The banks in Utah have shared gen.
erously In the progress and profits in
cident TO the general prosperity. The
reports Of the banks in Salt Lake City
show deposits OF S45.000,000, surplus of
more than a million and half, and
undivided profits of upwards Of $780,
600. Their loans and discounts amount
practically to $3O,0OO,000 and their In
vestmeuts TO nearly sS,000,000.
The bank clearances of this city will
reach close TO S37O,OOo,Ooo for the year,
a gain, approximately, Of $4,000, 900
over the year 1911.
The banks in Utah, and especially
those in Salt Lake City and in Ogden,
are in very strong position. They
are conducted conservatively and safe
". and are managed so as to be of won
derful support to the business inter
ests in all directions, They apply their
financial help wherever il is needed,
and in the most effective and thorough
manner.
The bank clearances are the best
possible index We have OF the pros
perity of the community at large, and
il is pleasant to be able to say that the
relations Of the banks to the business
community have been most cordial and
mutually helpful; and that the people
appreciate at its full value the vast aid
that the banking interests are to every
progressive and enterprising develop
ment and addition TO the business nc
tiyities OF the State. Modern business
communities without banks would be
impossible; and business is so depen-
dent upon the banks that the pros
perity of these financial institutions is
generally the truest possible measure
Of the general prosperity enjoyed BY
any community. The rule holds good
in Utah, and has been handsomely in
evidence throughout the wear,

IN California and Oregon, by way OF
Joint action of considerable communi-
ties for the common benefit has point
ed the way, and the Utah fruit
growers are not slow to take advantage
of the lessons thus learned.
There is no question but that Utah
fruit has many excellences of its own,
and that fruits can be produced here
of superior flavor and quality, and in
such variety as is seldom seen in any
one State. The fine flavor OF Utah
peaches and of Utah apples is favorably
and widely known, and wherever it is
known there is an insistent demand
for the Utah product. When the Utah
fruit.growers have perfected their com.
binations, their regulations for pack.
ing and shipping, and their agreements
for marketing. then Utah will take
front rank in producing fruit that will
be the choice Of the markets wherever
il can be found.

Old industry in Utah; and yet in the
modern sense it has hardly begun. In
The old days the farmers planted what

stock Is the sole demand, and nothing
but the best will serve, which is quite

RECLAMATION PROJECTS.

Utah has been at the front the past
year in projects for reclaiming the arid
land and bringing it into use, both in
the way OF new irrigation enterprises
and in the development Of dry farm
ing. This latter form OF industry has
become well established in the State,
and the progress of Utah cannot be
fairly realized without taking into ae.
count the splendid progress that dry
farming has made.

HOW THE WORLD GOES.

During the year 1912 the world has
| had its troubles. There has been an
archy and confusion in Mexico through
out the whole year, and the troubles
there appear no nearer an end now
than when the year began.
There has been an upheaval in China,
and the deposing of monarchical sys-
tenn that has existed for thousands Of
years The people have taken into
their own hands the government of
their country, and have established a
! republic, which it is to be hoped may
| long endure. The truth is that the
Chinese people are at bottom demo
cratic people. Their communal or vii.
| lage systems Of government are Of the
most popular kind, and the people have
in the past paid little attention to tho
imperial government, save only as they
were called upon or "bledn to meet
its expenses.
The war in the Balkans has troubled
the civilized world and threatened q
general war, but there is now good
|
although if it is not settled by the driv-
ing Of the Turk out of Europe, there
must be a renewal OF the struggle later
on which will effect that purpose; for
| the presence Of Turkish rule in Chris
tian Europe is something so obnoxious,
so paralyzing, that it cannot longer be
| borne.
The war forced upon Turkey by
Italy for the acquisition OF Tripoli was
happily settled during the year, with
Italy's complete triumph
The greatest marine disaster known
TO history was suffered during the year
in the destruction OF the great steam
ship Titanic, with the loss Of sixteen
hundred lives.
The world has progressed rapidly in
achievement aud in industrial advance
ment. More of the dark places have
been thrown open TO the light. and more
and more has Christian civilization and
enlightenment pervaded the world. The
people of all countries arc awalIing 70
their own possibilities as never before.

THE WORLDS GOLD PRODUCT

Tho gold production OF the world for
the year just closing will reach close
to $475,oo0ooo. OF this total Africa

The production Of the United States
will be little less than last year, close

South America will produce probably
about s12,ooo,0oo; India about the
same. China's gold production will
show a falling off Of something like
$2,000,000, being, as we estimate, for
the present year something like $S,o0o,.

pie Of East India understand that the

much progress has been made in this

The banks OF Europe have shown
during the year an increase Of about
100, 100000 in their holdings OF gold
compared with the corresponding re-.
ports for tho year 1911. An unusual
quantity Of gold has gone into the arts
and mechanics, the estimate as to the
latter varying greatly. the truth being
that no very accurate record can be
kept Of what is being done with the
gold. unless there are very pronounced
movements such as absorption OF gold
by India and the greater holdings of
the European banks.

UTAH'S METAL MINES.

The mines OF Utah have done ex.
tremely well the year Just closing, in
spite Of the interruption by the Bing-
ham strike The Tribune carries on
another page this morning the detailed
statement OF this production.
The total value Of the gold produced
In this State tho current year is S4,334, ).
0s5.6O, being falling off OF upwards
OF s950000 as compared with 1911.
There has been an increase of a mil
lion ounces in the production of silver,
but greater comparative increase in
the value, because of the higher price
of the white metal on the average; this
price being the present year 60.605
cents per ounce, as compared with
53.304 cents per ounce in 1911.
There is a gain also in the amount
Of copper produced. but moro CON
siderable gain in tho price. In 1911
the price of copper averaged for the
year 1876 cents per pound; but in
tho year rust closing the average price
has been 16.247 cents per pound.
The same might be said Of lead /;
there is an increase in the production
and also an increase in the average
price. But this increase on both counts
is far less as to lead than as to cop.
per.
The production OF zinc has fallen off
somewhat, but tho price has gained,
leaving the total value slightly in
creased.
The total value OF Utah's metal
production for tho present year wo
put at $44 21s,s5o.41, as compared with
n metal production in 1911 Of $50, 6,S37,-
457.oo. an increase Of S7,3s1, ,393.41.
There has been an equally gratifying
increase in the dividends paid by the
metal mining companies of this State,
the total being for the present year
50, 9,4S4,25l against a total of $S,o73,-
$50 the previous year, gain of $780,
395.
The metal mining industry in Utah is
al a gratifyiugly high mark, and doubt
less there viii be q gain the coming
year over the present year even great
or than that shown this year over last.
The Utah mines arc as n whole man
aged with business sagacity, an e1-
pert business handling, and an honesty
and good faith that rank them among
tho highest in tho world.

any account Of. either in ancient or
modern times, amounting to close upon
$4,000 900. This gold, however. is
represented by gold certificates, which
are in circulation and serve every pur-
pose OF money
In spite OF the enormous gold pro-
duction OF the world, there is anxiety
almost unexampled TO get the new gold
as it is put upon the market Only
last week there was a great scramble
for the 100000 ounces Of gold brought
to London from the Rand. The Bank
of England expected to get it, but it
mostly went TO Germany. In view OF
the ferocious struggle for gold, it would
be curious indeed to see, what the
world would do without the enormous
additions that are made to the gold sup
ply month by month. In spite of all
the additions, there is from time to
time a pinch and u fierce demand for
the yellow metal. No matter how much
the world may produce, there is always
demand for more, and this demand
continues insatiate month after month,
year after year, 1t is now some eight
years since the production of gold
amounted to more than s4o0,ooo,ooo a
year, and in ten years the known sup
ply Of gold in the world has doubled;
and yet there Is greater demand for
1t than ever, and this demand Is always
ahead Of the production.
