Show THE CITIZEN 12 WASATCH CLUB SCALES MAJESTIC MT. BALDY. inThere is nothing so exhilarating, to the vigorating and restful as a trip pine covered hills in our canyons. Beautiful fresh and cold mountain streams roll over the rocks and preciIn' past pices in picturesque scenes. to the years the wild life added much attractiveness of our mountain scenery but today one seldom sees a bird or an animal. Even the once plentiful seldom bushy tailed grey squirrel is seen and people are wondering what has really happened to so deplete bird and small animal life. One of the wonder scenes of the state is just being opened up iiTihe northeast part of the state in the building of a new road to Mt. Baldy, via Beaver creek, which canyon is entered at Kamas, Utah. Ai he presen 2G writing, this new road extends miles into the hills, and a large force of men are fast constructing the road which they hope to complete to Lost lake this fall, a distance of about four more miles. It is hoped to eventually complete the road to Evanston, Wyoming, which will make another entrance into our state, and which probably will be the most scenic that we so far have. From .the summit of Mt. Baldy one can count 47 small lakes and the scenery is most wonderful. There used to be good fishing in some of the lakes and in the streams, but today the fish are pretty scarce. They are all native trout in that district, a pretty dark sreckled trout with red meat, no doubt L - become separated in their hike to Mt. Baldy because it was easy to become lost. The campfire scene was one never to be forgotten by those who partici- due to the fact of the iron in the wa- ter. The rocks in the streams are all iron stained and are dark in color and the fish partake of their environment. The writer had not fished in this district for many years and the new road was a great temptation which could not be resisted, but found fishing very poor. Members of the road gang said that there were fut few fish, although at the opening of the season it was pretty good. Here is a new district to which the automobile had no access, yet the fish are practically gone. Saturday afternoon, 150 members of the Wasatch club under the leadership of Mayor C. Clarence Neslen of this city, President C. W. Lambert of the club, Dr. J. E. Broaddus, guide, and a Mr. Geue, assistant leader, arrived and pitched camp, preparatory to a hike to Mt. Baldy. It was probably one of the most joyful gatherings of outdoor enthusiasts seen in this part of the country. Immediately after supper, the buys rustled dry pine trees and built a huge camp fire in an open place where there was no danger to the surrounding timber and an interesting program was given. Mayor Neslen addressed the large party speaking generally on outdoor life, its benefits and asked all to help preserve the trees and wild flowers in order that natures scenic beauty might not be destroyed, and which is so pleasing to the eye. Dr. Broaddus spoke on outdoor life, hiking in general, and gave many facts regarding the surrounding country with its many beautiful lakes. He advised the party to stay together and not pated and it was well into the night before the members retired for a short sleep. All was hustle and bustle six oclock in the morning and by seven oclock the people started on their seven mile hike to Mt. Baldy. Less than 25 people reached the summit of the high mountain and their stories of the wonderful scenery imbued those who did not reach the summit with ambition to get there on the next hike. Many of the hikers stopped and fished but without success. However, the outing proved a wonderful success. The Wasatch club is noted for its many hiking trips and nearly every week members of thi3 club can be found in some remote part of the state, climbing the highest peaks in the Wasatch and Oquirrh ranges. Mayor Neslen is an ordant advocate of these hiking trips and quite endorses the saying now commonly used, See other parts of the country If you will, but see Utah first. No state has more beautiful or grander scenery than Utah, and the exhilarating and pure air in our hills, the smell of the pnes and the wild flowers is something which every citizen should enjoy at sometime or other during the summer months. Lest we forget, let us stock the depleted lakes and streams with fish. Frank E. Schefski. FINE RSULTS OBTAINED FROM OUR HIGHWAYS Utah farmers and tourists now enjoy 204 miles more of the Federal-ai- d highways than they did a year ago, acording to the Agricultural Foundation. This mileage, completed in the year ending June 30, cost a total of $2,954,735, of which the federal government furnSears-Roebu- Let Us Handle Your Printing Requirements Briefs Catalogs Booklets Abstracts Color Printing Announcements Bindery Work Publications Commercial Printing Ruling "THERE -- is no need of wast-- 1 ing your time when OUR telephone is at the end of YOURS.

Highway construction under this plan now under way in the state totals 226 miles, while the total mileage completed previous to last year was 219 miles. This additonal mileage, which a convenience to the tourist in the state, is a godsend to the farmer, according to the Foundation. It is estimated that each and every farmer in this section of the country averages GO tons of farm products hauled to market and 9 tons of feed, fuel, fertilizer, machinery, supplies, etc., from town. When good roads make trucks feasible this is not very burdensome, but it represents a good many hours labor where horses and poor roads must be used. And so while the tourist finds the inter-cit- y roads mighty comfort- able, to the farmer a good serviceable road from his farm to the nearest market is a downright necessity. The expansion of hard road systems both in this and other states in recent years has given the farmer and added inducement for going into business for himself, the Foundation states. That he has not been slow to take advantage of the opportunity is testified in the Increasing number or roadside markets on the more frequented high ways. Figures show that each of the markets takes in fifteen to thirty do lars up to several hundred dollars day, varying with the locality, th preponderance of buyers being tour ists driving through the vicinity. Somi of these are nothing more than stand of simple board construction while the more pretentious are housed in build, ing which may be locked after the day's or the seasons business. The most successful of the markets are so placed as to have convenient facilities where prospective buy. ers may examine the articles of food, park-in- g which should be of good quality moderately priced and attractively played. yet dig.
