Show 'LIKES IRON COUNTY BEST J. W. Pollock, for many years a resident of Kanarraville, Iron county, but who for a number of years has been living at San 'Bernardino, California, and 'since last May has been" located ton a homestead at Blackrock, Utah, dropped into The Record 'office yesterday to renew tyis acquaintance with the editor. We can't remember back to the time when Mr. Pollock was not a subscriber. In, the old daye when the writer wac making his debut into newspaerdom Mr. Polllock was one of the old s'tand-bys, and he is "brill with us. But speaking of the country and conditions, Mr. Pollock can see now that he made a grave mistake when he moved to Cali- jfornia, and that he made an- ' other mistake when he located ! at Blackrock. He states that he ' is fully convinced that there is J no better soil anywhere than is MMiaanMUMnfMMiHMmaMMHMMMHnMnWIMMM to bo found in the vicinity of Kanarraville. Arid farming there is proving highlv practical and profitable Arnold Graff, a brother-in-law of Mr. Pollock, raised 40 bushels of turkey red wheat to the acre there last year. His brother Joseph Pollock raised an average of 33 bushels to 6ach acre, all without any irrigation ir-rigation whatever. It is Mr. Pollock's intention as soon as practicable to sell out his holdings at Blackrock and return to Iron county to live, and with this end in view ho has already bargained for a good farm near Kanarraville. Let others profit by Mr. Pollock's experience and stay in Iron county, the best spot on God's green earth to live upon. |
