and has studied it's many advantages.
And at the Friday Rotary meeting
he kept the interest alive every
moment by his pleasing and clear
presentation of the subject
Mr.. Brooks pointed out that Utah
is huge in proportions, colossal in the
topography OF the country. it's noun
tain ranges, canyons and gorges. and
tremendous in resources, actual and
potential.
There are today in Utah 100000
acres of the very best land on the
American continent under cultivation.
but there are still available 100000
acres of equally rich land susceptible
of agricultural uses that await only
the extension of irrigation systems
and the advent Of population to till
the same.

$40, 100000 have been expended in the

bitches. The annual yield OF these
farms Is upwards of $4,000, 600,
while the livestock industry of the
state is now yielding over $4,000
600 annually.
In consequence of the possession
of the richest soils, according to the
soil surveys Of the geological depart
ment of the Federal Government. and
the scientific methods of irrigation.
the average yield per acre of sugar
beets Of that locality is the highest
in the United States. The average
yield of wheat under irrigation is As
bushels per acre: of oats. so bushels:
and Of barley. A bushels. There
were produced last year in Utah
county 100000 tons Of sugar beets
which yielded the farmers over So
100000 and produced one-fifth as
much sugar as the entire yield Of
the Southern states.
The irrigation projects include
hydro electric power plants of the
most approved type, which not only
serve to furnish power for lifting
and distributing waters to the farm
ers. but also serve the industrial
power needs of the state.
The people of Utah are not only
home. owning people, but they are
lovers of education. The first build
ing erected in 35 settlements in Utah
was in every instance a schoolhousc.
and today Sc per cent Of all the taxes,
state and local, are used for educa-
tional purposes. Utah has more miles
of hard surfaced highways in pro
portion to its population than any
state in the Union.
A wonderful mineral resource in
Utah is that Of magma metal. the
highest and strongest metal in ex-
istance. If Great Salt Lake is 20
miles long, 80 miles wide and 80 feet
deep and the water is extra sheavy,
how many tons of water are there
in that great inland sea? If they
metal from each ton Of salt water,
how many pounds Of this metal can
Utah furnish the world-considering
also that a vast part of the salt
desert surrounding the lake is i'm
pregnated with magnesium chloride
of which magma metal Is made.
