"Know the markets" is the new slogan of
stockmen throughout the West This slogan
however, does not only apply 10 raising and sell
ing stock, but to virtually everything else. The
only way TO make live stock and general farm
ing in Eastern Utah as profitable as possible rs
to know the markets-which is another way of
knowing how to sell AT certain times of the
year carloads of fruit rot merely because they
didn't find their market. Fruitgrowers, in
stead of learning where the fruit was in demand,
700 often think OF one central market, and when
that is glutted allow the fruit TO 90 10 waste.
Manufacturers expend deep thought on their
selling systems-which is merely the art of
finding where the demand for goods exists and
supplying the demand at that point. Soiltillers
with profit can do the same.

That crops raised on blasted land
