CACHE VALLEY "the granary of Utah." In the chain of valleys that lies across the breast of Utah and Idaho, there are none fairer than Cache.
No other valleys within the Territory or State can show such verdant hills, such sparkling streams, such fertile soil. To describe its won-
derful and picturesque surroundings requires time and space not at the disposal of the writer. Suffice it to say that a fairer spot, more varied
scenery or finer climate exists not on the face of the earth. The Valley is an oblong basin, of which the Wasatch mountains form the rim. It is 15
miles in width, and 60 miles in length, 4200 feet above the level of the sea, can cultivate a hundred thousand acres, and supports a population of 20,000
souls. There are more than a dozen towns and villages presented to view, each having from one to three thousand inhabitants, Logan, the county
seat, being the largest, with over six thousand. Cache Valley is first above all other western places; the climate is all that be desired, short, mild
winters and the balance of the year such as cannot be surpassed. For fruit this valley cannot be beat for flavor, quality, quantity, size or productiveness,
and the finest wheat is raised here without irrigation, yielding heavy crops. Onyx and all the precious metals are in the surrounding mountains and
for investments in real estate this Valley cannot be excelled. Cache Valley has at present but one railroad, the Union Pacific. The academy in the
northern part of the valley, built by the people of Oneida Co., is a noble institution and worthy of patronage. All lines of business are represented, such
as lumber yards, planing mills, flouring mills (roller process), machine shops, mercantile of every description, the finest creamery and cheese factories
in the west, the best show and plow factories, nurseries, etc., The only Woolen Factory in Idaho is located at Franklin, where is being turned out a class
of yarns, blankets and linseys, etc., that is not excelled in the east or west in quality or price. To the tourist and health seeker we say come and enjoy
this wonderful land, that has not a peer for beauty and healthfulness, and for those seeking investment and homes where all the blessings of life can be en-
joyed without a single drawback, we say come and you will never seek further. Letters of inquiry addressed to any of the advertisers on the back of
this will receive a prompt reply.

Dear Brother, I recieved
a Letter yesterday from the president of the Southern
States mission giving lots of good counsel &c And among
other things says I should leave home with $75.00 or $100.
Now I find that $50.00 is about the limit of what I
can have to leave with. Now what I wish to Know is
whether I would be justified in leaving here with that
amount or not as I wish to follow counsel to the best of
my ability. Will you kindly advise me and as soon
as convenient. If I go I should like to leave here here
on the 21st so as to visit relatives in Salt Lake City
and vicinity
I know of no laws forbidding an Elder
to go on a mission without purse or scrip, if
he has faith to do so, trusting in the Lord
for success, nor of any law compelling him
to have, 50$ 75$ or 100$, or any other sum
of money to start on a mission with. J. F. S.
