' This however, is impossible unless the people at largeen- -list to fight this arshenemy of mankind. And to view the situation from an economic standpoint as well as to look at it from the humanitarian side, we learn that the state is losing enough from the wastage of disease to finance all public improvements; so we can readily see that we have before us a problem that we cannot afford to ignore.

Utahs population is not increasing as rapidly as it should, nor will it increase just as we should like to see it until we begin to develop the great projects of, the state that will bring under cultivation the vast areas of ground which are either arid or inundated at the present time.
