The imporUnoe of LuiMiCjf up the eouotry and developing the agribe overlooked cultural resources with ai"ety lo the city investor and city interest, and it ia with pleasure that we have read and here reproduce from the Irrigation Age the following article well calculated to attract the attention of agriculturalist abroad: Oce of the most promising sections of the Great Salt Lake valley ia that portion comprised in the county of Weber. This county is thickly populated by an industrious and frugal people, and the farms and gardens are kept in a high state of cultivation. Ogden, the county seat and commercial center, is located at such a point as to furnish the beet chipping facilities for surplus products to be obtained by any county in the territory. The Union I'acirio opens up the eastern markets for imports and exports. The Central Pacific carries goods to and from the l'acitio coast. The northern oountry is reached by the Utah and Northern railway. Southern Utah and Colorado are brought into close relations with Ogden by the Utah Central and Kio Grande Western railways. Thus Ogden practically becomes the Junction City of Utah, and is therefore most fittingly adapted to the wants of Weber county in supplying rapid transit conveyance for the abundant crops of fruits and produce annually harvested from the well pruned orchards and fertile fields. Weber county, like all other sections of Utah, depends upon irrigation almost exclusively, though some excellent crops of grain are produced from the dry furming pnx-ess- . The Ogden and Weber rivers furnish the chief source of supplies for water to fill the several canals used in conveying life to the crops of various kinds. During the dry, hot seasons when snow is not plentiful in the mountains, these streams do not supply enough water to meet the necessary demands and some of the crops are cut stork The remedy this evil and increase the farm products of the country the Bear lliver Canal Company organized under the laws of the territory, with a capital of 2,100,000, propose to construct a large canal from Its northern end of the territory, through a fine farming country, into Weber county, and terminate at C:gden. This is one of the greatest undertakings ever chronicled on the pages of Utah history. The scheme origiuated in the mind of John R. Both well and involves the expenditure of over 12,000,000 and results in changing the current of a large river and transferring water to thousands of acres of barren, desert lands. The canal is now under headway and has already resulted in being the cause of large tracts of desert land being reclaimed. Eight smaller canals extending over from four miles to fifteen miles of territory, are taken from the Weber river. Of these the largest is known as the Central canal. It carries a large volume of water through the Lnnd Bridge district into Davis county and irrigates lands ior a distance of fifteen miles. The Ogden City, West .Weber, Hooper, Unitah, Plain City and Fremont canals are also taken from the Weber river. These carry water, to separate neighborhoods where the fields are irrigated and abundant crops are harvested. The Ogden river is tapped at eight differeut places aud the Lynne, Slaterville. Mound Fort, Ogden Branch, .North Ogden, Milling ana Plain City canals are taken out carrying water to the northern settlements of the county. In addition to this supply a flowing wells large number ' of .have been secured and are doing good service throughout the county. In that portion of the county bordering on the Great Salt Lake the farming communities are principally engaged in what is termed truck farming. Large quantities of potatoes, onions, and vegetables are shipped during the season to the mining cities of the north and east. Strawberries, raspberries, blackberries peaches, plums appricots and apples form another shipping industry which employs the capital and brains of a great many people in Ogden. On the Land Kidge, under the Central canal, and in the Salt Creek district, watered by the Fremont, enormous crops of watermelons are produced and shipped by carloads to the mining centers. Canneries have been established in Ogden, and several acres are planted in tomatoes. In the vicinity of Riverdale about acres of tomatoes were twenty-fiv- e planted this season, snd give promise of bounteous crops. In 1888 the writer secured some choice seeds from Hon. Norman J. Colraan, commissioner of agriculture, and thortooughly tested the matter of growing bacco in WTeber county. About five hundred plants were grown in a garden very at Plain City. The stalks grew some were large, thrifty and the leaves and measuring thirty-si- x inches in length fibre w as twenty inches in width. The fine and the leaf cured a good color. KenThat body peculiar to Virginia and lands on limestone grown tobaccos tucky and with plenty of rain was lucking. It could probably be secured by means of artificial snraying, and the tobacco insource of revedustry would be another nue to the county. Rev. James K. oung, of I lam City, has demonstrated the fact that the soil adapted to and climate are particularly sweet and potaof peanuts the growth toes. .

A 6cheme has been devised for f urnthing more power for factories aud other machinery in Ogden City by throwing a dam across the Ogden river, but that object has not jet been accomplished. Among tbofee who have made successes at the small fruit and produce growing may be mentioned KJwin Dix, Abram Maw, Charles and Thomas Musgrave, of l'lain City. This village contains about 1.0U0 inhabitants, and is situated ten miles northwest from Ogden. Large crops of fruit and produce are harvested annually, and during the fruit and vegetable season teams are kept on the road every day hauling the products to market The town is only three miles from the Utah and Northern railway and furnishes this transportation company with loads of freight and express destined to northern mines. North Ogden, lying eight miles north of the business center of Ogden City, is another town that supplies the commission merchants with small fruits, vegetables, potatoes and onions. N. 11. Barder aud Henry Barker are two of the great producers of the village. Their produce wagons are on the streets every morning before the hum of business begins. They also do a great deal of shipping to Montana and Idaho by way of the Utah Northern. Ten miles from Ogden, king on the mountain side between North Ogden and Plain City, is Pleasant View, another fruit growing district George Burnett and Wiley G. Cragun might be mentijned as the chief producers and dealers at that place. The entire valley surrounding these places, including Lynne, Slaterville, Marriotts and Mound Fort, is composed almost of continuous orchards aud gardens. On the south side of the river lies Hooper, West Weber, Riverdale and Wilson, all contributing their share to the large products of fruits, vegetables and other crops annually shipped from Weber county. The mineral deposits of county are being prospected and ores of all kinds peculiar to the Rocky Mountain The region have been discovered. Chamber of Commerce of Ogden City has given the subject much consideration and the time is not far distant when rich camps will be opened in the mountains of the eastern part of Weber county. About twelve miles northwest from Ogden is situated the Hot Springs. This health resort is sought yearly by hundreds of invalids in search of health and pleasant climate. The springs is also a prominent place for excursionists from Ogden and the surrounding settlements. A dummy or motor line connects the springs and city, running through Mound Fort, Lynne, North Ogden and Pleasant View.

Saturday afternoon a case of remark able sympathy on the part of a dog was witnessed on Church street, near the postoffice. A small dog strayed out into the street and was run over by a passing vehicle. He was not permanently cripr pled, but appeared hurt across the hack, and at first lay howling and squirming in the street. Another dog of an entirely different breed was standing on the sidewalk when the accident occurred. Promptly he went to the assistance of his injured companion, and by pushing him with his nose aided him in rising, and then escorted him to the sidewalk with every possible demonstration of mute sympathy, and stood by him until the partly paralyzed animal was able to hobble off. Persons who witnessed it expressed astonishment at the unusual We6t Chester (Pa.) News. spectacle.
