Show RESOURCES OF MILLARD (Continued from I 'aye I ) No. I d. chlorides. 14; sulphates, 2i; carbonates, .O'd). When we consider that these elements ele-ments are Injurious to the soil only when there Is from one half to one per cent or sulphates, one-fourth to one-half one-half of one per cent of chlorides and from one-twentieth to one tenth of one M-r cent of carbonates, we can see that there I not enough alkali In the soil in do any damage whatever under ordinary or-dinary conditions. Excess of water Is what did all the damage, and It will do It In any Irrigated land on eirth. Far more damage Is done by loo much water than by too little. This is one of the thing the new comer from the east should learn. Hut think of the advantage of an Irrigated farm over one dependent on rainfall! You always have water when you want It. You never have unseasonable un-seasonable rains to spoil your crop. You can leave your grain out till you are ready to thresh It. There are no Insect pest In Millard. No cyclones In summer, no blizzard In winter. Few cloudy days. No prostrating heat. Hummer night always cool enough for a blanket. Mountain all around you. Land a level a a Moor and with Just sufficient slope to make Irrigation Ir-rigation easy. A supply or cool, pure, soft llthia water for domestic pur-poses, pur-poses, found nt a depth of 1.10 feet and rising to within la or 20 feet of the surface. Land cheaper than you can find anywhere In the west, because Utah has had too many domestic, and foreign "knockers," and the land boomer hasn't yet got In his work. Then our market. 90 per cent of most of the farm product used In Utah are shipped In from the east. We can't supply our own needs, because be-cause we haven't enough land. The lArd used up too much to make mountains, moun-tains, but he stored tin-in full of gold jind silver and copper and Iron and coal, and so t ho mining camps of I'tah and Nevada provide a never failing market. There are mining camps within easy reach of Millard and Sill Lake Is only a few hour away, and that city always ha an unsatUlird demand de-mand for Millard County products. What the editor of I he Chronicle thinks of this county Is shown by the fact that he took up HO acres near Hurtner a year ago; last winter he took up a 320 acre dry farm on the at side, and he expect to take up Another 80 near Hurtner thl spring. Its the first acre of farming land the editor ever owned. He has been on land-seeking excursion to Idaho, knows all about the available land In most of the western states and has selected Millard County lands as having hav-ing the larger number of advantages at the lowest price. We Invite the land hungry of the east to Investigate our advantages and resources. We don't believe you enn do better anywhere. Our land will not long be held at the prices they are now selling for. Desirable land .at a reasonable price is becoming very scarce. Millard county offers you an opportunity which will not remain re-main open very long. Take advantage .f It NOW. |
