It is small wonder that we, who have descended Irom these pioneers, love Fillmore so devotedly. Brigham Young and his aides decided that the capital of Utah should be in the central part of the state, rather than in Salt Lake City. He therefore appointed Anson Call, from Sessions Settlement (later called Bountiful) to select 30 stalwart men and their families from that section of Utah to found the new capital city. The soil near and around Bountiful was ferule and grew all sorts of crops, including fruit trees and all varieties of hardy berries. The families chosen did not want to leave that section of the country; they loved their new homes, and were tired of going from one new home to another, but no one ever refused to do as Brigham Young asked them to do. Anson Call was told to pick men of different professions, as tar as possible, in order that the new settlement would be as far as possible, since it would be at least a weeks distance front Salt Lake, the center of what supplies wcreavailablctothel atler-DaSaints. Chandler Among that number was m Holbrook, who was the surveyor. He did not bring his family as he never intended to stay. He and his brother, Joseph, and sister, Phoebe, were orphans and had been raised in Massachusetts by their grandparents and they were determined not to have their families separated. They had joined the church shortly after each had married in the East, and had followed the exodus from New York through Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska and across the plains to Bountiful. Now, Brigham Young told Chandler to leave Fillmore the next spring after surveying the site for the Slatehouse and other necessary buildings, and return to Bountiful for his family, much to the disappointment ol Chandler. Although Chandler was terribly disappointed, he believed Brigham Young was guided by the Lord and he would do exactly as Brigham wanted him to do, since there was no other man to do the surveying. Each family of this new isolated Capital of Utah depended on how much (he head of the family knew about getting a livelihood from the soil. Although the adult members of each family were good gardeners, Brigham Young made sure that each colony had several horticulturists who knew how to bud and graft trees and shrubs, as well as just how to grow plant material from slips; real nurserymen. John Starley and William Stott were two really excellent nurserymen, who excelled in upgrading the trees, berries and shrubs of Tillmore and the early pioneer orchards of this seciton of Utah. Later, when Johnstons Army was on its way to Utah, Brigham Young sent John Starley to Fillmore with some of the most select trees, shrubs and nursery supplies from Brighams gardens, just in case Johnstons Army destroyed all of the orchards and gardens in the Salt Lake Valley. Thus, Fillmore had the very best orchards and gardens in Utah at that time. These gardens and orchards were watched over with tender care and it is said that Mr. Starley raised red currants as large as cherries, and fruit unequalled anywhere in the state. Soon Fillmore was known as a regular Garden of Eden." In an article dated October 12, 1862. Bishop C'allister sent an account to the Deseret News telling of Mr. Starleys potatoes weighing three pounds, currants as large as cherries and apples twelve inches in circumference. No wonder Wells Starley is a wonderful gardener with such an expert for a grandfather. The fact that Fillmore produced such excellent gardeners probably accounts for the fact that Fillmore has the only Garden Club in Utah south of Pleasant Grove, which belongs to the National Council of State Garden Clubs. And this Garden Club has won more state and national cash awards than the combined winnings of all of the other clubs put together. And these awards have all been spent to better the parks and schoolgrounds of Fillmore. The National Council of State Garden Clubs was organized m 1929 to promote and improve every phase ol gardening, landscaping, and garden therapy (helping the sick get back into health by teaching them the miracle of plant life). The many other departments of gardening are flower flower historic shows, preservation, arranging, environmental control, and litter control. The National Council has now included in her program 53 departments which concern our daily lives. W e could all benefit by joining the Garden Club. Terri Cummings is the president, and therefore, our Garden Club is older than our president, which show show we train our youth. y Advertising Raleson Request Set ond Cl i .s Postage paid at Fillmore Utah POSTMASTER Send Address Changes to PO Box 507 Fillmore Utah PROGRESS PRINTING COMPANY Owned by William V and Madeleine Wilson and Susan B Dutson NATIONAL NEWSPAPER m This AbSOc liaiilWjK ON AT NN Its a boy lor lanice and Ivan Robins ol In. pin I heir new son arrived at the Seuer Valley Hospital in Richfield on I riday, October 22, 982 at 4.42 p.m. He weighed 9 lbs., 3'; oz. and was 21 . long.
