Cache Valley Banking company LOGAN, UTAH Tor The Visitors v SSOGAN, the "Athens of Utah" and "Temple City ijfS& 0f the North," is the third city of Utah, the cap- siM' iPS ital of Cachc County. icatcd in thc ccntcr aUhc s! iSte eastern side of bcautiful Cachn Vallcy' at the Si B& base of thc Wasatch mountains, and contiguous SSSSSM t0 thc picturesque canyons of thc northern end of this range. Logan is a thoroughly up-to-date city of 7.000 population, possessing to a marked degree, all those acquired advantages of eastern cities of similar size; and geographically speaking, lies 60 miles north of Ogden, and 100 miles north of Salt Lake City, the capital of the State. From thc standpoint of natural advantages, at an altitude al-titude of 5000 feet, nestling between two spurs of the Wasatch range, thus protected from extreme storms during winter months and cooled in summer by refreshing mountain moun-tain breezes, Logan's climate is indeed beyond compare. From canyons in close proximity Hows an unlimited quantity quan-tity of the purest wjtcr, and a natural drainage makes thc city one of thc most healthful in this western country. Thc soil of the territory contiguous to thc city is productive pro-ductive o thc highest degree, and this gives Logan the solidity that is thc portion of all cities in first class agricultural agri-cultural sections. However, Logan is located on and near streams which could and will in coming years generate great power for industrial enterprises and it is to this, in i conjunction with mining possibilities, that Logan looks for her greater progress in the future. Logan at the present time is a city of successful bust- ness institutions, educational interests and happy homes. The city possesses several miles of paved sidewalks, graded Ti-Pft. it's rvtvn nler.trir: lifht nlant. two telephone SVStems, streets, its own ciccinc ngni piani, iwu icicimiuuc: -aitma, three strong banks, a sugar factory, ten Latter-day Saint places of worship, including one of the four Temples in Utah, three Gentile churches, knitting factories, condensed milk factory, foundries, implement works, three newspapers, news-papers, big flour and planing mills, substantial private and public buildings and business institutions representing practically every line of trade. Logan is particularly noted for her educational advantages. advan-tages. Here the public school system is one of the very best in the inter-mountain country. Proficiency is thc standard. Of higher educational institutions three are located in Logan City The Agricultural College of Utah, the Brig-ham Brig-ham Young College, and New Jersey Academy. The first is a Government and State school combined, presenting four schools, that of Agriculture, Commerce, Knginecring, Domestic Science and Arts. $500,000 buildings grace the first bench east of thc city and command an incomparable view of the valley. Sixty professors and instructors handle the work of the school, and during the past year 725 students stu-dents were enrolled in the various departments. Thc school is recognized as one of thc most complete and efficient effi-cient agricultural schools of thc United States. The Ikigham Young College is a Church school, supported sup-ported wholly by the Latter-day Saints, and the work it presents is regarded as thorough. The buildings .md grounds arc bcautiful and commodious and the equipment excellent. Twenty-six professors and instructors ha,d charge of more than 075 students during the past year. r Here all the higher branches common to such schools are given, with the addition of a course in "Mormon" theology. theolo-gy. The students at both this and the Agricultural College Col-lege arc given personal supervision out of school hours. , r The New Jersey Academy is a Presbyterian Mission school with a corps of six teachers, giving from kindergarten kindergar-ten work to a three year high school course. The school has an average of 125 students. Logan City is a quiet city with few of the allurements and dangers of thc larger city. Board and rooms may be secured here at nominal prices and in every way in which it may be considered, the city presents exceptional advantages advan-tages to parents who send their children away from homcto get an education. In speaking of Logan City with pride, the average citizen citi-zen docs so with the knowledge that Logan alone is not wholly responsible for all the acquired advantages which thc city has to offer at this time. Logan's interests are essentially linked xvith thc interests of the valley, and is dependent on thc valley's productiveness and thc success and growth of thc valley's industries. As the valley prospers pros-pers in a general way, so does Logan prosper, and that thc city is to-day the third city in Utah is due largely to thc fact that in this county outside of Logan are energetic fanners, and stockmen, men who arc aggressive, up-to-date, and by force of energy and good judgment have accumulated ac-cumulated means. Logan is a good substantial town to-day because the soil of Cache Valley is worth S100 an acre; because we have the water to raise the crops that line thc pockets of the farmers, because we have sugar factories, creameries, and condensed milk factories that pay the producing farmer good money for his products; because the city is the county j seat of a populous and prosperous county and the distri- ' buting center for no less than 22 towns "and communities; because we have great schools here; because the city's irrowtll hns linen snhtnntinl rntlior tlinti miichrnnm jjuwwi n u ueun suusiunuai raiucr man musnroom. Thc Logan and Lcwiston sugar factories, paying hun- VT dreds of thousands of dollars to Cachc farmers, is back of Logan. Thc Utah Condensed Milk factory at Richmond, handling 50,000 pounds of milk daily and exporting it a finished product, is back of Logan; 2,000,000 bushels of wheat yearly is back of Logan; the wool clip of 100,000 sheep, thc milk of 4,000 cows; and great mining propositions proposi-tions will yet be back of Logan. This City and County offers every opportunity for investment in-vestment and every good thing to prospective residents. Logan's manufacturing facilities have not yet been exploited ex-ploited to one-tenth part of their capacity. Every day thousands of horse-power runs to waste, but at the same time nowhere in the State is water or electric power cheaper. Logan is the center of great mining possibilities, and at the present time prospects being worked arc showing most encouragingly. Logan is the northern terminus of thc interurban electric line from Payson on thc south, and a street railway is not far in the distance. In the city residence properties bring good values, but are not held at a figure unwarranted by our advantages and future prospects. Business property sells at a price commensurate xvith its location and thc city's advantages. Logan is to-day in need of places for rent. At no time in thc past three years has there been an over plus of empty houses. thc city is growing, full of life, and the county and 8 ' city are being pushed by the Cache Commercial Club, the I ti secretary of which will answer any and all inquiries.
