Show ROPE FACTORY j IDEA ADVANCED ' BY MRJAXTER '! Hyruin, March 2. Editor Logan H Republican: I hnva been asked by many of the residents of Cncho what thero is that could bo dono In this county to furnish moro wlntor um- ploynient for tho working classes. H I do not know of nny thing better H than n good ropo factory. Wo havo ono of tho best valleys for this In- H dustry that thorn In in tho stnte. Wo H can raise all kinds of flax nnd hemp, IH thereby manufacturing ropo, twlno, burlap sacks, penniless sacks, thread IH of all kinds, towels, nnd scores of IH other useful articles far superior to JH those that wo Import. jH In tho early fifties I worked for H a man In Salt Lako City that made IH ropo by hand, nnd tho rope ho mndo ll wns ns stout a ropo ns four timet H the size that you buy now, nnd would j last four times as long. Wo used to H mako our own shoo thread and towels H out of flax when wo first settled this i fl valley, but for tho want of machinery ' wo quit. This Industry should bo H lookqd Into, and lnduco somo capital- H 1st to build a lnrgo facfory in Cacho H to furnish employment for hundreds H of people, nnd export thousands of H dollars in ropo out of tho stato In- stead of Importing so much Into tho I saw, when visiting tho twlno fac- , tory In Chicago, flvo hundred girls I In ono building, all making binding ' twine. Let us hear from somo per- i sons that havo somo moro expert- '. ! onco along this line. j Tho seed of flax is very valuablo Fl for making meat cake and Unseed oil. , ,H Yours for a big factory In Cache "iH county.
