T IS OFTEN SAID tkat from agricul- 

 ture comes the only substantial basis for 

 the building or any commonwealth. The 

 object in issuing tbis book is to present a 

 brief but accurate description, in wordf 

 and illustrations, of tbe wonderful devel- 

 opment and agricultural opportunities along 

 the lines of tbe Salt Lake Route in Utah, Nevada and 

 California. These states present to the sefiler and 

 homeseeker hundreds of opportunities for the securing 

 of farms and ranches, both great and small, either al- 

 ready producing or in such condition as to permit the 

 owner to carry out every phase of modern development. 

 It is a short story of the possibilities for home making 

 for men of moderate means, who desire to carve out of 

 the lands of this Great \Vest a Garden of Eden, such 

 as others have done, and thousands of others will do 

 within the next few years.
