This means that skilled engineers, after the most careful survey of the geographical character of the QOEC vast country between Portland and the coast, decided that this highway should pass directly through Columbia Acres, owing to the remarkably low grade per centage. Agricultural and fruit experts have, by actual tests, demon strated that the character of soil in this section will produce the finest fruits and. vegetables; in fact, rivals the famous Hood River and White Salmon sec tions in fertility.
