That is hut a detail, and we will drop it. There was a gold harness which cost $2,000. There were coaches worth from $5,000 to $12,000.

"very smart, doncher-now!" and other phrases which convinced me that they wero the "real thing."

The Utah sugar factory was constructed con-structed in 18SS-9, and has just finished its seventh season's run. Its urea test year was 18!M5, when its output out-put amounted to over nine and one-quarter one-quarter million pounds. The last year has not been so favorable, owing to the blight that settled on the beet crop, and the year's output was only a little mine than three undone-half million pounds of sugar. Still, the increased price for sugar, due to the Dingley tariff act, has aided the company com-pany and enabled Jit to offer the farmers for tho bests next year 25 cents more per ton than the price paid in 1S97, or $4.25 as against $4. The cost of the sugar company's plant at Lehi has been considerably-over considerably-over $500, OuO, and everybody knows it ran several years without making any returns to its stockholders. Latterly it has paid 10 per cent, per annum, and its stock on the market, for having hav-ing no quotable value whatever four or five years ago, has advanced till it is held stillly at $S per share, with a few or no sellers at that price. The owners feel very hopeful of the future, notwithstanding the competition com-petition which they will undoubtedly have to meet, and it is worthy of note that the Lehi and Ogden institutions will be run in entire harmony, as many people who hold stock in one l also interested in the other. How great a boon the sugar factory has been for the people of Lehi is wll evinced by the fact that there has not-been not-been a delinquent taxpayer in that locality for sme years past, The factory paid out to farmers in 18!)(i over 1150,000 and iu 1SS7 about half that sum. Its pay rolls each month that it is in operation run up into the thousands, and it also keeps thousands thous-ands of dollars at home each year for sugar, that was previously sent out of the state, and when it has a large run it brings into the state large sums of money for its product sold in Montana, Idaho and Wyoming. Wyo-ming. Under the careful and conservative con-servative management of Superintendent Superin-tendent Thomas R. Cutler, the factory fac-tory Is run on the most economical basis, and though when constructed it was said to have a capacity for working 350 tons of beets per day, its average has been nearly 400 tons. Utah consumes annually about 18,000,000 pounds of sugar. From the present outlook it will not be long before be-fore her own factories will manufacture manu-facture all she consumes, and have a considerable surplus to send out-slde.-IIerald.
