Mary mmd Acrtry lie France Toar of Xapeetlen Kesrotlatlons Tar lL4x-tta Xrlj Closed There Is nothing particularly new to communicate to our members this week. The membership is growing fast and many are preparing to join us. During the past week Secretary De France made a business trip to the west and together we visited the irrigated regions of Idaho and espe cially the .proposed" location of our settlement. Owing to the fact that not sufflcient land is under option. at the present writing It is not safe to an nounce the location until that is com pleted. .Some of this land is held by eastern parties and it will require time to get matters In shape. One of the great difficulties has been to find a large enough body of land in one tract. Sufficient land can be picked up In various places, but not in a com pact body. We are, however, now in a fair way of securing all the land we want; It will take some little time, but that was to be expected. A heavy immigration from Nebraska, Iowa and the Da kolas as well as from Utah is now on, and within another year land will be hard to get and prices will have materially advanced. Many have written to the company Inquiring whether wo can employ them and give them an. opportunity to pay at least a portion of their loca tion stock in labor." In reply we can say that we are at present making arrangements by which we may be able to take a limited number of mem bers and let them pay for their allott ments in labor. We would like to hear from all who wish to pay for their lands In this manner. It will be nec essary for these parties to have teams which will be put to work building canals, laterals and such other Im provements as are under contempla tion. If our arrangements carry, which we expect within a few days, it will be necessary for those desiring to pay for their allottments In labor, to go onto the lands at once. Good liberal pay will be allowed. Of course we cannot take everybody In on this basis, only a limited number, and those applying first will receive first consideration. It may be possible that we caa secure transportation at least part of the way for the working outfits for those who will work for the company, this, however, is not definitely settled. All desiring to work out the cost of their allottments must make application In the regular way and pay tbe advance payment the same as all others are required to do, and as Is shown In the company's prospectus, after which the remaining payments will be paid In labor. Only those who can at once or within a short time get ready to go to work should make application. The ad vance payment Is required for the same reason that we require it of those who pay on: in cash. We have no time to lose on idlers and Irresponsible parties and for that reason will adhere to the above rule. In communicating with us on this line state what your outfit consists of horses, wagons, imple ments, etc. Considerable has been written on the matter of irrigation and the enor mous production under this . system. Out time Is so thoroughly occupied this week that It is impossible. to say much more on the subject In this ar ticle.' Thoss who have seen farming by irrigation in a rood country are fully informed and can gain little adr ditlonal knowledge by repeated argu ments in its favor; those unfamiliar should read up on the subject there being several publications devoted to this kind of farming. The drquth condition of the middle west has caused an enormous interest being taken in the' Home Makers set tlement enterprise. Every mail brings us large numbers of applications and the inquiries are piling in at al most encouraging rate.-1 It has become nec essary to increase our facilities to han dle the ever growing business. Few have any conception of the amount of painstaking labor and care falling on the shoulders of the management. Many obstacles &t6 encountered In such a gigantic undertaking, which must be met and disposed of to the best advantage. Thousands of ques tions are asked and must be answered. Yet everything is moving along nicely and we are more than satisfied. As was stated last week, success is now assured. Many have been waiting In order to see how the movement would succeed and are now rushing in to se cure location stocks. "Nothing suc ceeds like success," is an old saying, and a glance at the busy force at our home office . Convinces that the Home Makers are on the sure road to suc cess. . We are anxious to finish the work of filling the membership at the earl iest possible date, so that we can de vote our time to surveying the lands, platting the city and making x allott-' ments, and getting ready to receive the settlers. .The company will have; to erect a number of buildings where our members can secure temporary shel ter while they are erecting homes. Every provision will be made so that members will experience as little dis comfort as possible. Many details must be looked after all of which re quire time and which cannot, be done until the matter of filling the mem bership is off of our hands. Every present member, can render us ma terial aid by securing new members, by organizing clubs, the members of these clubs will then act as mission aries in the movement. Good homes await every member and at a cost far below the actual value.- No individual eould go Into the same region and buy lands at anywhere near the price he receives his allottment for from the company. As soon as arrangements can be made we expect to put con siderable time to the matter of or ganizing clubs all over the country. There are many advantages to, be de rived by the formation of clubs. Its members are acquainted with each other and the new home will be suiS rounded by old associates. The mem bers can assist each other In the mat ter of erecting buildings and exchange labor in a thousand ways. They can get along with a much smaller outlay for Implements at the outset and in numerous ways can be of assistance to one another. Present members will not only give us material aid by se curing additional settlers, but they hasten the day on which the lands will be ready for them. FRANK L. MARY. Salt Lake City, Aug. 5, 1901.

The original gasoline supply was five gallons, and the machine could be run only 40 miles without reloading, but the fuel capacity has been increased to 17 gallons, which is held in a tank in place of the dashboard, and reloading need be done only' once In every 100 miles. . ... -s-; 'v; .- No attempt will be made to create a record, and the antomobilists will not hurry.

Of course the pouch is detachable, and the flap 'se cured by means of fastenings such as are in common use on the wrists of gloves.

' LONGEST BRIDGE OF ALL Facts About Chicago's Movable . - Singlfe Span Structure. .

" To the many things In Chicago which can be spoken of as the highest, longest and grandest has been added the lon gest movable single span bridge In the world, aays the Chicago Post.' Work on it has just been completed, and trains of the Chicago Terminal Trans fer Railroad company, the Baltimore and Ohio and the Chicago Great West ern roads will cross the Chicago river south , of Taylor street on the new structure. '": " ' . ' Construction of the drainage canal made It necesnary to remove the pier of the old bridge south of Taylor street. The necessity for a bridge without a pier presented a condition of affairs new to engineers, and much discussion resulted as to. the beet plan to follow. After plans for the structure were made It was some time before a construction company was found ready to under take the work and guarantee its suc cessful operation. - Its success is now assured,1 and Chicago has the longest movable bridge in the world. - The Tower bridge in London Is next to It, but the Chicago bridge exceeds Its length by 75 feet. The bridge contains In all about 1,500 tons of steel In addition to TOO tons of counterweights. - Each- moving leaf contains about 2,000,000 pounds, and, aside from having the longest span of any movable "bridge ever built, the structure is especially noticeable In that It is built for the heaviest railroad service, carrying" double tracks. The bridge is designed for a load of 10,000 pounds per, lineal foot of bridge In ad dition to a concentrated load of 100, 000 pounds at any point on the floor of the bridge, thus giving a carrying ca pacity of more than twice that of the next longest lift bridge in the world, the Tower. bridge of London. The lat ter bridge has a span of 200 feet and is designed only for highway traffic' In the construction of the substruc ture In connection, with the present work difficulties were encountered in that owing to the narrow channel at the center' pier of the present swing bridge it was necessary to construct a cofferdam of a single row of Wakefield sheeting and to excavate to the depth of 26 feet below city datum, a feat thought by most of the rivef men of Chicago to be impossible. The sub structure of each leaf on, either' side of the river is built on a foundation of 600 piles 50 feet in length and includes 3,500 yards of Portland cement con crete mixed In the proportion of one part of cement, three parts of sand and six parts of broken stone. 4 The two piers contain 940 cubic yards of first class masonry O '',', The electric equipment for the bridge Includes for its operation two 50 horse power motors for each leaf. The power Is obtained from the electric plant at the Grand Central station, from which point' underground cables are laid to the operating houses on the bridge, which houses are connected by sub marine cables laid in a trench below the bottom of the river. Each leaf can be controlled from Its, respective oper ating house, and the operating devices are also arranged so that both leaves can be .controlled and operated by one man from the house on the east bank of the river. For this arrangement one controller has. been placed In the west house, while In the house on the east bank two have been installed. Each of the operating houses is fitted with a switchboard. an indicator showing the position of the bridge and operating de vices.' -. ..: ' : .'. . : SHIPPING LIVE FISH TO JAPAN Well Boats L'aed In Carrying; Them . Across tbe Pacific. The exportation of live fish, an In dustry just in its inception, promises to assume pretentious proportions with in another year, says a dispatch from Tacoipa, Wash to the St. Louis Re public. The Increasing demand from Japan and other countries for fresh fish and the good market in all parts cf the world are responsible for the innova tion. A large Puget sound fish shipper says the day is not far distant when live fish will be sent by the shipload from Pacific coast fisheries to oriental points and other parts of the world. So far as this coast is concerned, the plan Is an Innovation, but it ts said that in England it has long been in prac tice. . - . ... Tbe fish are shipped In "well boats." These have large tanks or wells in which the fish are kept alive until they reach their destination. After being caught they are put In the tanks In the "well boats" and fed on their natural food until they get to the consignee. In this way the buyers get fresh fish In exactly tbe same condition In which they are taken out of tbe water. Gold flab Aaralast Moaqnltoes.

The hog barns are 26x108 and the accommodations this year, for the stockmen are said to be equal to any that are furnished in the eastern states. - The board has also provided a complete - new water " plant which will be aJgreat improvement over the water system used at the grounds. The buildings are all newly painted and repaired so that they have the ap-s pearance of all new buildings. The old fence around the grounds has. been taken down and a new ; woven wire fence put' up In Its place. The race track has, been put in fine shape and is acknowledged by horsemen to be: the fastest half mile track in the state. The special attraction for this year is the firemen's, hose cart race, which conies off Tuesday and Wednesday. For this race there are some four or five hundred dollars offered in prizes and it will certainly be a very inter esting feature of the fair. The board of managers look for the largest ex hibit of stock that has ever been held at the grounds. They have several large entries from New York of blood ed stock. The agricultural and horti cultural exhibits, while they may not be as large as some years, will be very complete and from the entries already made will more than fill the buildings.
