LOOKING BACKWARD

THO THE average resident OF Cedar
Il City, who has been in the town
all the while, no very striking changes
or growth seems apparent We COM
plain all the time of lack Of money
and business, and the only thing that
appears to increase much is taxes and
living expenses. But in reality, there
is rapid and steady growth, both in
business and population. Perhaps
there is no better thermometer by
which to measure the business of a
town than the post Office, and a few
facts in relation to the growth and
development Of the business of the
post Office during recent years may
prove interesting.
The writer has served the people of
Cedar City in the capacity Of post
master for six years and nine months,
there is no better thermometer by
first of the present month. During
this period, 21,446 domestic money
orders were written, as against III,
COS for the ID years and one month
that money order business was done
here previously.
The receipts for box rents for the
quarter next previous to our assum-
ing charge Of the Office amounted to
$15.75; for the last full quarter Of our
administration in the Office, $63.7O
was collected. At the time the writer
was appointed postmaster, something
like forty daily papers were taken
today, over IT'S daily papers are dis
tributed through the local Office. Dur.
ing the writer's administration, the
Office has passed from the fourth tc
the third, or Presidential class, the
change occurring four years ago. The
office has also been made an inter
national money order Office, the postal
savings department has been added
and the parcel post provisions have
gone into effect, all of which have ten
ded to greatly increase the work Of
the Office. Mails have doubled OF
trebled in volume; and as the mails
and business Of the Office grew, more
roomy and commodious quarters were
required. These were supplied, will
an equipment that viii compare fav
orably with any to be found in an,
Office Of corresponding Importance il
the West, and heartily commended
for it's location, equipment and ar
rangement by government inspectors
visiting the Office.
We are not out for the purpose OF
footing our own horn, but it is onl,
fair to state that there has nevel
been any serious complaint as to thu
conduct Of the Office or the way thu
work has been kept up. We have
tried to do our duty, both by thu
government and the people, and WI
relinquish the place with a clear con
science, and we believe O fairly clear
record.
Our successor Is competent ant
honorable young man, and will un
doubtedly make Cedar City an OBJ
liging and efficient postmaster.
But the important feature of thil
matter is the indication that it gives

The annual reorganization of the
Cedar City Commercial club has been
effected and new corps of officers
installed, who will no doubt instill re-
newed life and enthusiasm into the
work. The Importance Of thorough
ly live, aggressive commercial club to
a town cannot be overestimated, but
the tendency is for members to be.
come careless and lukewarm in Their
work. The club has just finished 9
fairly successful year, but there i:
much room for improvement If the
members and prospective members
will all take an interest and do Their
part.

Warns Potato Growers.

In announcing that unusually large
stocks of potatoes were held on January
l in the large potato producing States,
the Department of Agriculture warns
Southern growers. who usually sell
their spring crops in competition with
the stocks carried over in the Northern
States, to take notice of the situation.
Prices are unusually low and there
fore, may not decline further" the
DEPARTMENTS statement said, "but
material advances in the next few
months cannot be forecasted from
present supplies. The United States
seldom imports or exports relatively
large quantity of potatoes. There
fore, the European war has no material
direct bearing upon the potato market
of the United States"
Of the marketable supply of pota-
toes of the 1914 crop 528 per cent. re-
manned in the hands of producers or
dealers on January l. This is estimat-
ed to be 166, 846, 600 bushels in States
which produced 78 per cent. of the
United States crop.
