we've invariably noticed that the
town with the band is the one in
which a great spirit of cooperation
exists, and where everything in the
way OF business and social life moves
along more pleasantly. Next TO a good
paper and good schools there is no
better advertisement for the small
town than a good band. BY that We
mean one in which the citizens are in,

that brass bands - like everything

received at Salt Lake City by Prof

Jericho are 10 the effect that five
hundred and fifty thousand pounds
of wool have just been sold for seven
ty-one cents a pound. The COMPETE
ton between the buyers is reported
to have been very keen. This is the
first wool sale of any consequence in
Utah this year. The sales were made
by sealed bid.

yer and Rio Grande, says Tuesday s
Salt Lake Herald. He says the cold
weather has held the seasons shear
ing back and the lambing season is
showing considerable losses. Little
movement is evident in the wool mar
ket, owing TO the growers hesitating
in contracting at prevailing market
prices. The general opinion seems
TO be prevalent among growers that
better prices will be paid as the sea
