ROSEBURG, OREGON, MAY 24, 1928.
WHAT MAKES
J Within a week several thousand affiliated club women
and members of the I. 0. 0. F. grand lodge yhave visited
Rojeburg, and among them have been many whomade their
IfirSt trij) to Roseburg, the Umpqua Vulley and southern
I Oregon. It is safe to say that there are a lot of Oregonians
among these esteemed visitors who have heretofore not been
acquainted with Douglas county. These good people have
walked or driven through the residential districts of the city,
they have motored along country roads, they have been
guests at the Country Club, the marvelous beauty of the
swirling Umpqua rivers have held their admiration, the
grfeen carpeted hills have charmed them, the setting of the
Cascades to the east and the Coast Range on the west, in
ull' their majestic grandure have inspired acclamations of
doright.'while the ever changing landscape, as these visitors
stood on the hillsides and let their vision sweep over miles
and! endless miles' 'of country that spreads out in all direc
tion's like one limitless,' Vast park, has brought reverential
avc) to the hearts of many of these visiting folk as they
drtijik in. the wonderous handiwork of the Creat Architect
who has so lavishly bestowed his gifts upon' favored Ore
gon. .'!?.' i i ' :
; The question has been asked a number of times during
this week past, "What is it that makes Rosuburga and the
people of the Umpqua Valley so contented and prosperous?
Wjii see about us every evidence of excellent financial con
ditions; the homes of the city show thrift; .the, business
pljices ar-i modern and filled with good merchandise; the
rubral population appear to bo doing well, and thero is no
dearth of any oiie thing what do you folks down here do
that lias made all this possible?" . . ;
I These questions wore . put up to the' News-Review
People are inquiring because.they are" interested. To those
of us who live in this' section of the state these natural at
tractions aiid resources get to be acommonplace matter,
therefore, it appears that they are after all really , vital ques-
. tibns.
?! In this brief survey of the natural resources of Doug
Ih'h! county only p, gliinpso may be given of what makes the
people hero prosperous and happy. First" of. all,, 'climatic
conditions are such as to promote health. The purest of
whiter; coming from the perpetual snow of the Cascade range
' flpws in greatest abundance from the mountains through
countless streams to the sea. . There is never any excessive
heat nor withering cold. The evergreen verdure on a thou
sand hills is proof that there is never any devastating drouth.
Innumerable roses in nearly every" city yard and around most
afl'fnnh homes bloom every month in the year.- --. And right
noiv the country and city is a perfect bank of those beauti
ful blossoms. The' farms produce all sorts of grains; the
dairying industry of the Umpqua basin, ever increasing in
volunin, means financial independence for the man engaged j
in mat vocation. uoi'ii grows to poriection and yields as
well as in the "corn belt." Every variety of fruit tree known
to the north temperate .one thrives Jierc, and big orchards
everywhere are demonstration's of what fruit will do. Ber
ries, from the matchless strawberry that is having its in
ning in the carnival opening
blackberries and raspberries, grow to supreme perfection
along tho Umpquns and tho hundreds of lesser streams in
the county. Three big prune packing plants in Roseburg
and a similar plant at nearly every town along the 100 or
mora miles of S. P. railway traversing tho county, take care
of the annual production. Canneries help the grower to
dispose of his crops of berries and fruits. Big hothouses
grow roses commercially, and these are shipped but north
and south.
Then the poultry industry is a great asset. The Umpiiun
Valley turkey finds its way at Thanksgiving and Christ
inas time to city homes east of the Rockies as well as along
the coast. Chickens are making the living for many a fam
ily throughout the county, while cattle, sheep and goats bring
in splendid revenues fur others. The lumber industry helps
a bit, but. suffice to say (hat liouglas county has the great
est wealth in standing timber of any .section of Oregon.
Hunting and fishing, the big game of the hills and the
salmon and trout of the rivers and creeks, bring a lot of peo
ple in every year, and coniniercial fishing on the Umpqua
runs into thousands annually.
! There is some mining, gold, silver and copper claims
being worked in a few districts south of Roseburg around
Myrtle Creek, Riddle, Canyonville and Drew, (loot! roads
lire the rule, and the , motor car brings rural communities
and town in close touch with Roseburg.
These are seme of the things that help to make Rose
burg n place where plenty abides and hospitality to the
stranger within her gates abound.
