THE BEAR RIVER VALLEY
A high school student once do
scribed the Bear River valley "as
years we were fighting the volunteer
rye that came from year to year in
our wheat fields. Hut the real
transformation of this valley was
brought by the water of Hear river,
distributed aver the valley by the
splendid canal system now owned
and operated by the I'ath-iUaho Su
gar company. By the use of this
water on our fertile Holds the yield
of all kinds of grain is very high,
and along with the land and wa
ter we have the high and dear al
titude, which gives such a clear and
almost transparent appearance to
I our grain compared with grain raised
in the eastern states and most
parts of Kurope. Our sugar beets
in the Hear River valley are super
ior both In quality and quantity. Our
fruit can't be excelled. It has also
1 i proved within the last year
that tomatoes and peas can be raised
in this valley with good results. The
Hear River valley is a choice loca
tion, surrounded by high ranges of
mountains which protect us from the
fierce cyclones and cold blizzards
which we read about so often trans
Ipiring in other states.

The Hear River valley covers an
area of :i."u square miles, over one
fourth of the area of the state ol
Rhode Island, whose population is
about 150,000. Hear River valley
has only a population of about (1,0(11).

other parts of our state and such
states as Nebraska, Kansas, lowa,

rashness.

teni are phenomenal for productivity
when cared for according to sclen
tlflc fanning methods, and are only
partly utilized. This land produces
twenty, thirty and forty bushels of
wheat to the acre.
The valley, which only twenty years
since was a thriving sheep range, has
gotten past the shanty age, and
many prosperous towns have sprung
up, viz: Corinne, Hear River City.
Heaver Dam, Fielding, Plymouth,
Thatcher, Garland, Tremonton, Kl-
wood, Iowa Spring and Penrose.
There are numerous churches and
school houses, mostly all built of
brick, which is also true of many ot
the business houses, where concrete
and steel have composed much ol
their construction.
Scientific farming, including horti
culture, scientific stock-raising, dom
estic science and economics are
among the advanced topics taught
by up-to-date teachers. The valley
Is traversed by the S. P. railroad. ().
S L. railroad and the Malad Valley
railroad, and at present the Ogden
Interurban electric line is making
surveys contemplating the extension
of their road through the valley.
One of the best assets In the Hear
River valley is that gigantic irrigat
ing system owned by the Utah-Idaho
Sugar company, and furnishing wat
er to sufficiently irrigate 7.',uon
acres of as strong and fertile soil as
ever the sun shone on.
Numerous and bounteous crops of
vegetables such as potatoes, toma
toes, carrots, beans, peas. onions,
melons, cucumbers, cabbage and eel
ery are grown profitably. The cer
Bala such as oats, produce from fifty
to I JO bushels per acre, barley from
Ihty to ninety bushels per acre. And
in season blackberries. currents
strawberries, plums, peaches, apples,
i . ara are grown plentifully and in
great variety. Among the staple
crops grown very profitably is the
SUgar beet, which for quality ami
quantity per acre has never been
surpassed ami probably never equaled
