OAKLEY OF 1898 AND OAKLEY
OF 1922

Through the courtesy of Mr..
J. N. Price, we are able to re-
print a large part of The Oak
ley Star, Volume I, No. 3, dated
Thursday, May IL, 1898. Then
as now the Oakley newspaper
was an enthusiastic booster for
this valley. In order that we
may see the solid and sure
growth of our city, we give be-
low write-up of twenty-nine
years ago, headed, about
Oakley"
Oakley is situated near the
Goose creek canyon, and has a
population of nearly 500 peo-
pie, principally farmers and
sheepmen.
There are general mer-
chandising stores, all doing a
good business; 1 hotel; l mill
linery; l dress maker; 2 photo
graphers; 2 blacksmiths; l
paintshop; shoemakers; /
book and music stor; / grist
mill. capacity so barrels; l
Mormon church, it is centrally
located and well attended; 4
district schools in Oakley and
vicinity. Aoodornu
about s miles east of Oak
ley and near the Little Basin is
the Roberts & Co. marble quar-
ries. A large quantity of work
has been done on the quarry,
and it is reported that eastern
parties have taken it in hand
and will commence work this
season in earnest.
"There are large quarries of
white and red stone within six
miles of town, from, which the
stone for buildings is chiefly
obtained.
Oakley has the best orchards
of any other place in the
county.
"The water is the only draw
back we are afflicted with, but
to look at the snow-capped
mountains in the distance, at
the present time, would think
that it will remain for months
to come, and we hope that this
valley viii always have as much
water as the prospects is for
this season seems to be :"
Many of the resources limited
at in the foregoing article have
been developed in the past 20
years, and new industries then
undreamed of have sprung up
But few of the opportunities
mentioned by the editor of 29
years ago are still here-and
knocking every day at some
mans door. We can be more
certain than could anybody in
1893 that Oakley has a golden
future.
The growth of the city has
not been phenomenal. This is
a good sign. No mushroom
town is ours. The growth of
our community has proceeded,
not like that of the squash, but
like that of the giant oak. The
really great trees and cities
do not mature in a day-or
year.

1T PAYS TO ADVERTISE IN
THE OAKLEY HERALD"

The readers of our local
paper have noticed the SER
les of ads which / have car
ried for the past three
months. My business has
been materially enhanced as
direct result of these adj
vertisements.
People who, prior to the
appearance of these ads
would not have taken time
for personal interviews with
the agent, have, as a result
of the publicity asked for
such interviews--which has
resulted i'm profit to both
parties.
L have received letters of
inquiry regarding Mutual
Life policies from people liv-
ing in the adjoining counties.
l have succeeded in quail
flying for the 1922 Field Club
Convention, which convenes
