Show 4 '., ' I ' NOW IS YQUR CHANCE. 1 ' 2 Vrillm lor the Regtr. i Witiina few months from now the principal settlements of this Count r will have a Railroad passing pass-ing through their miilst. 'f If some persons think that then will come the fullfillment of anticf- 1 1 patioa of wealth anJ prosperity, they will be sadly mistaken, if they rely ! upon the iron road alone to gau . the desired end. We must bear in mind that the railroad will be only 1 tool or machine to assist us in our labors. By itself it will ooly be a Novelty and a means of drawing money from the pockets of the thoughtless a detriment rather than ' a benefit. ' To be a blessing to the people of the County, they most utilize the advantages offered them by these roads. Not alone by filling ' the couches with excursionists visiting from place to place, for that will be a direct loss, but by piling up the freight cars with produce of the valley. In other words, if we want the road to benefit us we must make them our freighters, to carry our Voods to market and consequently, we must produce the material to kep the cars running. ' There is now a ready and paying ''-., market for almost anything and everything that can berjsed in the 'valley, and if there be a proper distribution dis-tribution of products, every foot of 'cultivated ground in San Pete can "be made to render a profit. ' When these Roads reach our doors .there will then be no just cause or 'impediment for any man or woman, having the blessings of health and the free use of their limbs, from having a snug bank account and being independent of the curse of credit. How is the great desiteratum to ,be brought about?' Simply and easily easi-ly enough by first using the drain in conjunction with' muscle! Use your eyes: see what possibilities can be attained, what advantages can be utilized through labor and thought: 'each one select his speciality of employment em-ployment and that to which he is best adop'.ed,' unite your strength in each class and then go'jn and b tild ?b "up a business in that special line for all it is worth.. Those who follow ,'this rule cannot help but suceed. l. , : Be Cartful ju borrowing money for a start, but if yon Jiave to, look well ' to your prospects and borrow from your friends. Above all lo not 1 make a splurge in dress, furniture and fancy residences before you have vmir business well e.stablish- ed. Go slowly and surely. Heretofore our exports from this County have besn limited. Many things that could be raised have not been cultivated for want of means of getting them ta paying T market. When this great impediment V v, is withdrawn there will then be no excuse for not branching heretofore here-tofore unattempted ways. Then a five acre lot pr iperly managed can bring in better returns than a fifty acre farm now does and with not one fourth the labor. This is being demonstrated in Springville, l'ayson Provo, through Davis County and enyirons of Salt Lake City and Og-den. Og-den. You can go into western York state and see 30,000 acres of onions -11 . .:. -!: - state and see 30,000 acres of onions all in one area or visit Californii 'and you can see patches of strawberries straw-berries or tomatoes many of them "5000 acres in extent. These pay splendidly, but remember the secret js in strict bnsintss mngement. 1 here is always a big demand for small "n "fruits, potatoes and other vegetables that grow luxuriantly in this valley and the prices at the piesjnt writing are very satisfactory, Crea ueriei niits: be established in every settlement a. id henneries systematically sys-tematically ma.iaged. To-day in Salt Lake city, goi butter is bringing bring-ing thirty-five cjnts a pound and fresh eggs thirty cents a dozen, and shame to say it, the greater part is being supplied from Eastern States! ' ' 'Start up the knitting and clothing factories to give employment to the women and the shoe, leather, pottey pressed brick, cut stone and dozen of other works to keep Ihe men busy '.The ''ffay" is clear enough if there be the "Will!" Give the Railroads all the freight : they can carry and they in return will help you xll they can. It is to their apvantage to do so. The Iron Horse treats with a' snort of contempt con-tempt and neglect the sleepy and indolent in-dolent way ' stations. Don't be one of them!' ' " ' ' jAmos Quito. |
