paDy is a comparatively small one, but

The Castle Valley company has re-
Gently acquired the stock of Il number

WITHDRAWAL ORDER
OF LITTLE MOMENT

On October s, 1909, the secretary of
the interior signed an order throwing
open to entry 1S9,7 ,727.43 acres of land
In Iron county under the enlarged home
stead act. On February @, 1912, an
order was signed withdrawing certain
lands from entry in the Escalante val
ley in Iron county. These tracts were
included in the original land opened in
1909.
The first entry under the first order
was made on April %, 1910. Since that
time, until the second order, 15S,6Sl.17
046.26 acres subject to entry. Secre-
tary Fisher second order came too
late to be of much avail
The withdrawal order was made un-
der section of the enlarged homestead
act The tracts now open to entry do
not come under that section, but under
section p. which requires that the filing
person must make his or her home on
the ground. Section does not require
residence on the land
The order Of Secretary Fisher in no
wa affects the title of those who have
already filed on the land in question,
providing they live up to the require
ments of the law, This means that en-
trrmen must cultivate onc-elghth of the
land tho second year, one-fourth the
third year and not less than one-half
by the end of five years.
The reason for the withdrawal of
land under section 6 is due TO the fact
that government agents connected with
the geological survey have reported that
water can he secured at depths rang
ing from SIX to sixty feet, and the land
therefore cannot be classified as dry
farming land. The value of the lands
already entered, it is said, will average
SIS an acre.

MINISTERS TO TALK
ON HOME INDUSTRIES
Sermons on Subject to Be
Given in Churches Through
out Utah Today.
MEANS MUCH TO STATE
People Will Be Strongly
Urged TO Purchase Goods
Made at Home.
MEANS MUCH TO STATE

According to an announcement made
yesterday by D. +. Collett, secretary
Of the Manufacturers association,
Apostle Heber j, Grant will speak on
home industry at the tabernacle this
afternoon, taking up that subject In
common with other speakers in
churches throughout the state today.
Others who are to speak son that
matter III the city today were calling
at the manufacturers headquarters in
the Vermont building yesterday to OBJ
tain literature and facts that will aid
them in dealing with the subject. One
illustration of the need of the present
campaign was pointed out by Mr.. Col
lett to one Of these applicants. He salo
that III the State Of Utah the sum Of
$5,000,000 is annually spent for all
sorts Of knitted goods. All the knit
ting factories Of the state combined
produce such goods to the value Of
about 100000 annually.
Little Sold at Home.
Only ten per cent of this small
amount was sold in Utah, the remain
ing ninety per cent going to surround
ing states, even though the home goods
D.
and III many instances much better
than, the product of outside manufac-
turers. So that instead of the import
bill being reduced to the sum Of
81 100000 it was lessened only by $780,
600 through home consumption OF
homemade goods.
1t was stated by Mr.. Collett that
the fault now lies chiefly with pur.
chasers Merchants have Expressed
willingness, he says, to increase their
stocks of homemade goods lust as soon
as there shall be sufficient demand
from their customers for them. The
present campaign is largely intended to
educate consumers in the necessity for
their demanding home products. Upon
enlargement of this demand depends
the extent Of stocks to be carried by
merchants and the increase OF output
by manufacturers.
Slogan Slips Sents Out.
Thousands Of the envelope slips, con-
tanning the slogan, 81 Am For Utah, -
have already gone out in the mails.
On these slips is set forth 1.-THE Creed
of the Loyal Utahn,' the several ar
ticles Of which being subscribed to
pledge the recipient to support Of home
industries
1t is expected and sincerely hoped
by home producers that the church
talks In advocacy of their cause today
will have mighty effect toward
bringing home to the people serious
realization Of the fact that their pa,
trouage of homo institutions means

to thousands OF home artisans and

Week Show Large, Healthy
Increase.
MORE CALL FOR MONEY
Greater Business Activity JUS
titles Bankers in Making
Larger Loans.
MORE CALL FOR MONEY

Increased bank clearngs, au impetus
in the call for money and sound condi-
tons generally characterized the past
week in local financial circles.
Yesterday clearings amounted to
s1,156,9 ,994,S2. as compared with 1888,
574.17 for the same day last year. The
total for the week was S8.JlG, ,S3S.47,
as compared with $6,l37, 1879 for the
corresponding period in 1911. The in
crease is in the neighborhood of two
and c-half million dollars.
The increased demand FOR money, ac-
cording to bankers, has been for legi-
innate purposes, such as building, eX-
tension of industries and public i'm
provemeDts. Bankers declare that it
has been some time since the business
activity Of the city warranted so many
loans.
Prospect Excellent.
AS Il result of the recent rains and
SHOWS, most hopeful feeling has
sprung up III regard to the agricultural
outlook for the season. An abundant
supply OF water seems assured in most
localities, whereas a few weeks ago u
damaging dry spell was feared.
Local conditions are said to be on a
safer. sounder basis than in the east,
where strong conservatism still pre-
walls in many localities Securities
here remain steady During the week,
pany and the Descret Savings Bank
paid their regular quarterly dividends.
The Utah-Idaho Sugar company has
closed its books for the dividend pay
able March 80,
Some Good Dividends.
Yesterday the books of the T. G.. NJ.
/, were closed for the regular four per
cent and special three Der cent divi-
dends payable April 10. A number of
banks and firms will pay quarterly
dividends on the first OF next month.
The Beneficial Life Insurance company
will call meeting of its stockholders
to consider the pronosition for increas
ing it's capital stock from 100000 to
100000 TO enable it to enter other
states, where the law requires larger
capitalization. Interest on the Utah
County Light & Power company bonds
will be paid April /.
Reports from the east show that
liquidation has run it's course in ordi
nary business circles, and commodity
values refuse to come down further be-
cause Of relative scarcity of raw ma
terials Tho crop outlook, however, is
said to be highly encouraging, due to
ideal conditions of weather and soil,
In general, noticeable Improvement
is reported from one end of the coun-
try to the other. Optimism is most
conspicuous in the west, where condi-
tions are more favorable
