Spotlighting UTAH "Covered Car" Is Startling Sight Next July, motorists using Highway High-way U. S. 30 will be startled to see seventy-two prairie schooners gliding swiftly along the highway somewhere between Nauvoo, Illinois, Illin-ois, and Salt Lake City. While these covered wagons are actually seventy-two automobiles over which are mounted wagon bows covered with canvas to which are attached life-sized plywood oxen, the likeness to the genuine prairie schooners of one hundred years ago is so amazing that eyes of folks along the old Mormon Trail will open in wonderment when the procession goes by. The caravan, by the way, is that of the Sons of Utah Pioneers on their Centennial Centen-nial Trek from Nauvoo, Illinois to salt L&Ke uity. - Already the' Nauvoo Chamber of Commerce has organized a welcoming wel-coming committee for the Utahns when they assemble there July 14. On the way back to Utah, camp-fire camp-fire programs will be held each night along the trail. The last program pro-gram will be held at Fort Bridger, Wyoming, where 10,000 people will gather to hear an address by Centennial Cen-tennial Commission Chairman, Da-vid Da-vid O. McKay. Timp Cave Opens The 25th season of the Timpan-ogos Timpan-ogos Cave national monument opened op-ened last Sunday with plenty of interested in-terested visitors on hand. During the 24 seasons that this unique attraction at-traction has been open to the public, pub-lic, 251,372 visitors have toured the underground cavern, or an average of 10,474 per year. Attendance is expected to reach an all-time high this season. Utah Is Hub, Survey Proves Checking migration into Utah, workers of the U. S. Bureau of Census conducting a survey of Salt Lake and Davis County residents are asking this question: "Where did you reside as of April 1, 1940?" Nearly complete, the survey reveals re-veals that the largest representation representat-ion of migrants into Utah came from Idaho, Colorado, and California. Cali-fornia. This nation-wide project, will enable en-able agencies to allocate scarce goods to each area, plan future housing, control employment and gain information for statistical purposes. More Rangel Oil to Reach Utah A tremendous increase in de- repining while my duty's call is clear; I will waste no moment whining, and my heart shall know no fear. I will look sometime about me for the things that merit praise; I will search for hidden beauties that elude the grumbler's gaze; I will try to find contentment in the paths that I must tread; I will cease to have resentment when another moves ahead. I will not be swayed by envy when my rival's strength is shown; I will not deny his merit, but I'll strive to prove my own; I will try to see the beauty spread before me, rain or shine I will cease to preach YOUR duty and be more decerned de-cerned with mine.

Pioche outlived the rich halcyon days of the high grades, and today has taken its place as one of the great silver-lead-zinc districts of the West under the leadership of Edward Ed-ward H. Snyder, Utah mining man. Snyder first became interested in the district in 1911 and actively entered the district in 1913. In 1914 he formed the Greenwood leasing company, a partnership of 4 men, K W. Clark, F. J. Nichols, George W. Snyder and H. M. Cushing, all of whom have been prominent in Utah industry for the past quarter of a century, Out of this combination grew the Combined Metals Incorporated, which began operations in 1915. From 1915 to 1923 the company struggled along grappling with the problem of treating treat-ing the complex sulphide lead-zinc ores. The old-timers did a very thorough and a very neat job of gleaning the high grades. The many old workings work-ings of the district will testify to this; but they ran into the problem of the . low-grade sulphide lead-zinc ores and a problem of complex faulting. This problem stood as a mand for petroleum products in Utah is bringing about the construction con-struction of a ten-inch soil pipe line from the Rangely Oil Fields in Colorado to the Utah Oil Refining Company in Salt Lake City. The oil will be delivered under the pressure of-W .pumps and 24,500 barrels daily will reach the refinery. With this pipe line complete com-plete in 148, the oil reaching Salt Lake City via pipe lines from the Rangely Oil Field will total 46,500 barrels daily. Utah Gains Wide Publicity j Fresh from the presses, the April Ap-ril issue of, the "County Officer Magazine" a publication with national nat-ional distribution, features Utah on the front and back covers as well as the inside. Promoted by the Utah Department of Publicity and Industrial Development, the Utah material in the magazine features the scenic attractions of the State. The front cover carries a two-color picture of the "This Is the Place" monument and the back cover is a unique work of art protraying Utah as the ""Hub of Scenic America." Am-erica." This magazine is distributed distrib-uted to county employees in every court house inthe United States. Utah Pictures in Demand The photographic division of the Utah Department of Publicity and Industrial Development is being continually pressed to meet de mands for photos portraying Utah's scenic attractions. From the Editor of the house organ of the Caterpiller Tractor Company of San Leandro, California, comes the request for a picture story of Utah's vacation spots for their June issue. From the Consolidated Book Publishers of Chicago, comes a request re-quest for photos of Utah apricot trees in full bloom. From the Continental Oil Company Com-pany comes notice that they are going to revamp their famous Touraide Maps, and would Utah's Publicity Department please send full and complete information relative rel-ative to scenic attractions, industry, indus-try, history, and cultural achievements. achieve-ments. They also requested at least 100 eight by ten inch photographs illustrating the informational material. mat-erial. From a writer down in Carroll-ton, Carroll-ton, Georgia comes a request for a picture of the Sea Gull monument. monu-ment. From another writer comes a request for a picture of Utah's wave-cut terraces, meaning the old shore lines left by Lake Bonneville Bonne-ville along the sides of the Wasatch Was-atch Mountains. From the Amalgamated Sugar Company comes the April edition of the "Sugar Scoop" the company's com-pany's house organ, carrying on it3 front page a fine picture of the "Great White Throne" supplied earlier by he Utah Publicity Department. De-partment. Utahns Love Rodeos Pioche district are treated bulwark which held the district back for many years. In 1922 progress was made in their solution with laboratory tests which proved the feasibility of applying ap-plying selective flotation. This was one of the first districts in which selective flotation was applied, and marked the beginning of a new era in mining. Here and elsewhere the rich high grade carbonite and oxidized oxi-dized deposits had largely been mined and mining was languishing. So selective flotation brought new life to mining and new life to Pioche. In 1922 help was secured from the National Lead Company to finance fi-nance construction of a pilot plant, and later that year formed the Combined Metals Reduction Company. Com-pany. Immediately construction of a plant was started at Bauer, Utah, and May 1924, ores from the Pioche district began to flow toward the Bauer plant, which was designed to handle 14 kinds of ores. In succeeding years operations of Combined Metals expanded and treated ores from other areas including includ-ing Stockton, Utah, Bingham, Utah, and Hailey, Idaho. But all the time progress was being made at Pioche, new ores were being found and the complex geology was being solved. (The sixth article in this series will appear soon in these columns.) The rodeo-with iits bucking horses, cowboys, and attendant excitement-is highly popular in Utah, as evidenced by a count of this type of event scheduled throughout the state at various celebrations during the summer season. Starting with the Pleasant Grove Strawberry Days Rodeo in June,' more than 30 rodeo celebrations cele-brations are programmed for Utah cities, ending with the Utah State Fair Rodeo in September.
