WE V ! i t t i II 10 ENOUGH COAL PAY UNCLE SAH HILL-TO- In discussing the ability of Great Britain and France to meet their debts to the United States treasury too little has been said concerning the nine hundred and thirty thousand square miles of former German territory in Africa acquired by those countries as spoils of war. In order that our people may be acquainted with the Publicity as-great potential value of those colonies the Republican senes of artisociation at Washington, D. C., has just presented a realso with and turn their in with them individually cles dealing sources collectively. One of these territories, Tanganyika, is that part of former German East Africa that was allocated to Great Britain. Its total thousand square miles, area is about three hundred and sixty-fiv- e equal to the combined area of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Iowa and Missouri. Along the eastern border of the old German colony is a strip of about twenty thousand miles that went to Belgium and now forms a part of the Belgian Congo. Tanganyika has a coast line of five hundred miles, which includes at least six natural harbors. Small towns are at each of these points, sufficiently large to handle the trade that comes from a country so completely undeveloped. In July, 1922, Tanganyika was made the subject of a special report to parliament in which existing conditions in the territory are thoroughly reviewed and its future prospects estimated. In 1921 there were only 2417 whites to 4,170,000 natives or one white man to 1700 blacks. Under conditions now existing it is not surprising that the trade of Tanganyika gives no indication of the great natural wealth of the country. Last year the imports reached a value of $6,560,000, and the exports were worth $5,735,000. The former were mostly manufactures, foodstuffs, clothing and machinery, while the latter included sisal, cotton, copra, coffee, grain and nuts. But the British government is exerting itself to develop the resources that are to be found everywhere. Several agricultural experiment stations are maintained. The total number of cattle is already 3.147,000, and the sheep and goats number 3,405.000. The Tanganyika forest department was not established until the end of 1920, but already investigations have revealed the presence in large quantities of valuable timber, principally pencil cedar, yellow woods, ' and many others for which common trade names do not exist. West African mahogany is found growing to a giant size, while mangroves of excellent quality cover large areas. Mining prospecting was prohibited until June, 1921, but, in claims were the one year since then, three hundred and ninety-fiv- e registered for prospecting for gold, diamonds, silver, copper, asbestos, mica, molybdenum, coal, salt and soda deposits. Licenses have been granted for mining coal over an area of nine hundred and fifty square miles. There are indications of mineral oils, but prospecting for oil is not permitted at present. Because of the undeveloped natural resources there are ho manufactures and only five hundred miles of narrowgauge railways and two thousand and nine hundred of motor roads. It is apparent that Tanganyika is essentially similar to large sections of the United States before they were made available to settlement and development. There is every reason to believe that the territory will eventually yield riches comparable to those of groups of our wealthiest states. That wealth will be fully revealed long before the time set for final payment of the British debt to this country, and can be depended upon by the British government to meet a very large share of that obligation, FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS TO culture Adairs consignment was an Angus heifer weighing eight hundred HANDLE OFFERINGS and fifty pounds, which sold at the The secretary of the treasury has top of the days market on yearlings, announced a new offering, through the $10.25. federal reserve banks, at par and In the absence of band concerts we erued interest of about $300,000,000 in gold notes of the United States, matur- can always make music by blowing our ing December 15, 11)27.

A. Overbeck, vice chairman of the committee. In brief the report says: Your agricultural committee is deeply interested in having each member of this club acquainted with Utahs present condition of agriculture and its undeveloped possibilities. Few of us realize or appreciate the present undeveloped state or the wonderful possibilities that lie within our borders as a few figures I will quote in dicate. The records at the Salt Lake Stockyards show cattle receipts for 1922 were 88,319 head of which 65 to 70 per cent were supplied by Colorado and Idaho, the balance by Utah. Hogs Receipts 84,035, Colorado furnishing 10 per cent, Nebraska 85 and the remaining 5 per cent from Utah and Idaho. Sheep Receipts 459,463 of all classes, Utah furnishing 30 per cent and the balance came from Idaho. There are 433,000 head of cattle in the state, valued at Could we sell 100.000 per annum at fifty dollars per head would be it equivalent to $5,000,000. It is estimated that 170,000 head of feeders were shipped out of the state in 1922. Why were they not fed in this state? In addition to the foregoing there were shipped out of the state from April 1, 1922, to December 1, 1922, a thousand and seventy head of dairy cows and imported into Utah 649 head, showing head. Seemingly this a decrease of three hundred and twenty-on- e should not be as from a conservative estimate recently made there seems to be room for twenty-fiv- e to thirty thousand head addi tional. When we consider these figures in connection with the export market that is knocking at our door we can then begin to apprcci ate the need of development in this branch of our industrv. The foregoing is just a beginning, but it reflects what is possible of accomplishment when rightly directed efforts are put $20,-000,00- forth. V -- 0. Ni BURNHAM Manager.
