Show HOW FARMING WILL PAT PAY the newa news that mr henry barton of this territory ba bas captured the prize open to the whole union for the largest yield of wheat from an acre of ground is woith A

prize as not As it wag was it went to wyoming it is a common error to think that in the products of the soil utah has hai reached her limit the statement has been made and repeated by bials who ought to know better that the good lands are all appropriated and that for the remaining acres broad and well located though they may be tre ia is no hope of obtaining water such assertions are crosly misleading mie kading and in great part untrue 9 A tur tour through the territory or even a glance at the records in the land office will quickly show that thousands of acres subject to homestead or preemption pre emption and susceptible of remunerative munera tive cultivation are still unoccupied to be sure the work of irrigating them will be more expensive than it has been with those already taken and it they are still hopelessly dry the yield will not be te eo r 0 o great but in the latter case the tile experiment tried on the sand ridge between this city end nd Kay avile evile ought to
