Provo lias many resources to sustain her solid and substantial growth but the one thing of which Bhe justly boasts is her enormous and unfailing waterpower sufficient to keep the mayear chinery of a dozen mills going the round, and it is the ambition ofaProvo-ite- s to make their favored city great manufacturing center. They have a grand start in this direction already in their mammoth wollen mill, foundry and paint works. The wollen mills are not only a credit to Provo, but to the entire Territory. They were built twenty-fiv- e years ago when most of the to be hauled from the had machinery The plant, Missouri river in with more recent additions in the way of improved machinery, cost about $250,000. The mill gives employment to 150 hands, and the cloth manufactured there is equal to imported goods. It is used extensively throughout the west and finds ready sale in Boston and ban Francisco. The Provo wollen mills manufactured $200,000 worth of goods is expected during the year 1889, and itwill aggrethat this year the product gate at least $250,000. The wool industry in this part of the country has assumed large proportions, and the market guaranteed by these mills is a source of satisfaction and profit to the sheep raiser and farmer. Tiie facts and figures above detailed were acquired by a visit to the office of John G. Cutler & Bros, of this city, agents for the mills, and by a visit through the works last Saturday by the editor of The Advertiser , who is under obligation to Mr. Heed Smoot, the manager, for the courtesy shown him while there. We have neglected to state that Provo is the county seat of Utah county, and that it is the home of many of the this Territory. prominent citizens of Union Two trunk lines, the Pacific, and the ltio Grande Western, connect the city with the capitol and outside world and there are prospects of two or three more lines centering there. A franchise has been granted by the city council for street cars and electric lights, which when successfully will do much towards sustaining Provos claim of being the Gem City of the Valley. Private fish ponds have been established on tiie east bench for the propagation of the best species of the finny tribe; while in the close vicinity is a large hop farm About a mile and a half from the city is a fine stock farm of the Martin & Drake Live Stock As. sociation. They are importers of thoroughbred horses and Shetland ponies. Their stable of Cleveland Bays and Suffolk Punch horses is without, doubt the finest in tne west. Tiiey have sold many excellent horses in this part of the country, and Jerry Martin, the experienced affable manager, will soon leave for Europe for a new importation. Provo has a large number of substantial business firms. u. ox-car- ts. miles south of Salt Lake in the productive wonderfully City Utah Valiev and nestling close under the clifts of the grand Wasatch mountains lies the beautiful city of Provo.

Then the manor woman who ould not spend a delightful season there is certainly callous and insensible to the charms and allurements of nature for nature has surely scattered her richest gifts in and about Provo.

American Fork Canyon is noted for its grand scenery, its well kept toll road, good trout fishing and its famous mines of Bilver and gold. At its mouth and along the banks of the beautiful river, which issues from it, some three or four thriving villages, their cozy cottages Half hidden by shrubbery and orchards, gladden the eye of the traveler, while four or five miles away, Utah Lake and basin make the villages a most charming picture. In the background grand old mountains rear their bare granite heads above the timber line, till at the highest point on Aspinwali 1esiK an altitude of over 11,000 feet is reached. Utah Lake and valley with its circlng cluster of villages, its cultivated fields extending on to the foothills, its large herds of horses and cattle, and its beautiful and varied fruit orchards, surrounded by Alpine mountains, down whose gorges tumble bright and beautiful trout streams, altogether make up the garden of Utali and the paradic e of tiie intermnuntain regiou. Along tiie head of tiie canyon above named, tiie great mines from whose rich treasures, fortunes were extracted some years ago when the mining campaign in Utali first opened. Lawsuits, mismanagement, faulting of veins and the like, for a time hindered tiie output 'of ore aud bullion, but the coming season is full of promise for a revival of interest and of profitable mining enterprises in this groat mining district. In tiie meantime, with an instinctive, alertness characteristic of members of tiie craft who are always found at the front and within reaeh of a printer's outfit, a wide awake weekly paper, tiie Independent, Las started at American Fork and promises to publish to the world the superior mining aud agricultural advantages of this portion of Utah.
