SUPPORT HOME. INSTITUTIONS

That the spirit Of cooperation and
support of home institutions Is grow
ing In Utah is the opinion expressed
by many Of the leading business men
of the state. For several months the
cenbaisa for the increased patronage
4 Utah's factories has been carried
- and the results have been more
thSa satisfactory. g..
Il have always believed that all
Utah people needed was to have the.e
matters brought directly to their at
tendon" said a prominent business
man In discussing the increasing trade
In Utah products. The people Of
Utah have shown their loyalty to their
own state In n hundred different ways.
In the matter Of buying home prosdets
we are all human and in our desire
to make dollar DO its full duty we
sometimes overlook Utah goods think
Ing that probably something might be
gained through buying outside goods.
But we have proven that Utah goods
compare favorably both In price and
WIN foVhN ahs
else In the world. In fact l think the
strongest part Of the campaign OF the
Utah Manufacturers Association for
Utah products was the statement that
Utah people were asked to buy Utah
goods only when they could do so with
out the sacrifice of either price or
quality.
PERSONALLY | am willing" he con-

From all parts Of the state reports
indicate that Utah people are buying
more Utah goods than ever before and
there il rapidly growing sentiment
In favor OF supporting home instltu-
