needs of the community the state and the nation shall be the backbone of the nation our dry lands must be the bread producers as we shall never be able to get the value out of lands by irrigating ri that we should with the cereals to pay for the expense of the production with this high priced land and water hence we must most adopt more extensive exten methods of farming with more valuable crops and do the extensive farming by the so called dry methods shallow soils are not good for dry farming he as there is not enough d depth for the proper conservation of the moisture and herein lies the

resources of this fertile valley and described in detail astall the great advantages there as aa compared with other parts of utah and told why in his estimation it is a one of the most advantageous places for the farmer to put forth his en bergies to gain a livelihood from the soil as there is 13 every emery facility to make for the beat in agriculture of any place in this state taking it from any stand point one may care to look one of the greatest assets is the unlimited supply of artesian water to be had bad at reasonable depths throughout the artesian zone and on the higher land is the surface water which may be obtained bv economical pumping plants many of these are in evidence at the pres or ent time and many more will lit installed in the near future this lat at ter zone has the advantage of un on limited soil just enough drainage to make it of the very best quality for cereals corn and alfalfa mr followed mr day his hia subject being dry farming management the speaker discus sed at length the best method to be adopted in the preparation of the soil previous to planting in order to conserve the moisture as on the greater conservation depends the greater crop the following year he spoke of the nature of the different kinds of soils comparan com comparatively ely and the productivity of each as compared with each other clay soil requires require some what different method of treatment than that of more sandy soils and showed why parowan carowan and cedar valleys are particular adapted to this kind of agriculture in that the soils are deep and the very best of mod moisture ture conservation may be obtained there is no reason why these valleys cannot be made to pro duce the greatest dry land crops of any part of the state as aa every ad vantage in that line obtained here both in climate condition precipitation and length of the seasons after the close of the afternoon session the band spent an hour near the library building dispensing some soma inspiring music that was en oyed by all who were within hearing distance this in itself being one of the greatest assets to the further enjoyment of the roundup visa tors of any si occasion yet held in the city our great regret is that we do not have more of this kind of enjoyment for such occasions in that it puts a spirit of loyalty and patriotism in the hearts of every no ie As a crowning climax to the days successful issue the concert in the evening in the college auditorium given by the haydn society was of par excellence the rendition of the most beautiful program speaks volumna for their efficient leader every number was rendered in a manner that left no doubt in the mind of the listener that each one was waa carefully coached in ins his parts and let us say here that while we are not hot posing as musical critics that if there were anything of the discordant nature it ic was waa not the fault of the singers but due entire ly to the piano being som somewhat ebat out of I 1 tune the lady pianist wag wa laboring under some disadvantage from eay this tact the vast audience we say vast in this sense owing to the hall gave the bestif best of attention and nearly every cry piece was applauded to th the encore and very every encore enco re was as responded to we take special pride 10 commending chorus work in the hs harmo mua blending of every piece nece among the particular poin points t Hoti oti cable was the articulation which was wa excellent lent throughout and abeus she to the lay mind as of the greatest importance ut in that they want to hear bear the words word of a piece a aa well as aa the music the phrasing of each piece from piano or double piano up through the gradations of different pieces were sweet and harmonious and carried beautifully to every listener in the hall the great fault of so many singers in a public hall is in that their tones are muffled and the words are entirely lost except to a very cry few in close proximity to the singer another point that speaks well for the leader articulation n is the one thing that counts count in either public speaking or singing and goes far to towards ards the success of the enter ailment let us here state that the he haydn society were paid the greatest compliment of any gather ng mg ever held in this thia auditorium by actual count of two of the college faculty there were people present who gave excellent and close attention throughout mrs pearl decker elocutionist in her usually happy method was given round after round of hearty laplause and responded repeatedly later prin homer in commenting c upon the work of this his lady said it has been Years since he ie had heard beard anything that appealed to him so strong as her elocution in her different selections M mrs rs decker is 13 certainly a master at this sort of entertaining and has hag the faculty acuity of holding the attention of her ler audiences in all her renditions taken all in all the day was one of success throughout and we bespeak for the people of cedar and the surrounding districts the appreciation of the visit of our carowan parowan Paro friends and give them a hearty invitation vi to come again in the near future let us have more of this kind of thing and get more united as a a whole so that sectionalism shall have no place to rear its unsightly visage in 10 this fair county but that each citizen shall feel in an equal in terest in its ita welfare as one great community of brotherhood with the next annual roundup let feel that she has an equal interest with any other town of the county
