THROUGH HKHALEM VALLEY.
Country Alwunds wi7b Game and Ideal
Place for Vamping.
To Tin Ewtoe: Having recently
taken, with my family, whatlconsider a
Very attractive outinir. In onr own
county, I am disposod to call the atten
tion oi oilier pleaaureseekere to the
rout traversed, a I believe it to have
boon heretofore overlooked and alighted
for leas attractive fields.
Our first day's Journey was to th Nn
halem. where we camoud for a nounle of
dnya, on a little brook about two miles
umow nusMurg. nere we lounu an
abundance of crawfish, arout, brunli
rabbits and other (mull game. The
water of the brook, as well aa of some
of the neighboring springs and wells,
was quite strongly impregnated with
Iron. The fields were well supplied
with wild berries, and fHrmera from the
sparsely settled district sent u thick
cream instead of skimmed milk. The
cooling shade of an ideal campground
added to our appetites, and we left camp
with an Impression that the Nehalem in
a great country, and deserves several of
tlie railroad now contending for its fu
ture freights, an imorossion which all
our subsequent experience more fully
confirmed.
Our next day' Journey was along the
northern hank of the the beautiful Ne
halem, which alternately plunge and
glide through the dens forest a if it
were jmpolled onward, yet hesitated to
leave the refreshing shade. This alter
nation seemed to alToct tlie very settle
ment along its bunks, and between the
attractive little farms the virgin woods
at mid tall and thick as Hercyniun forest.
After a drive of about ten miles we
came to the little villago. Mist, which is
situated on tha north side of the river
in a very fertile, productive, and pros
perous valley. About seven miles below
Mist we enme to the Fishhawk. one of
the prettieHt trout streams in the state.'
stakes of the pending railroad surveys
are thick all along the route down the
river, and ,tlie early settlers dream ol
thrift and activity, where now are
only hardinexs, health and Independ
ence. But 1 would not leave the im
pression that lliene people are not com-
oriuiiiy nxeu. Most oi tnem nave good
homes, large barns, good stock and an
abundance of fruit, vegetables, bay and
grain.
A two day's stay on the fislinawk
needs no description. If camping can
be made attractive anywhere it can
thern. Add to the attractions already
mentioned wilder scenery and larger
game, and larger HkIi and more of them,
and one can lorni an idea ot tins region.

f rom MsiiliawK we drove oacx ny
u. 'i.,. !.,..,; .,,! niui.. i,i u.inln.
and from there, the next day, by Uohle
and leiT Island to St. Helena. We
found the road from Claukame to Rain'
ier but little used, except in places con
venient for hauling shingles and wood
to market ; and Die road from Rainier
to lioble near I v entirely unused and im
passable. To tlie casuul observer there
soms no reason why the latter route
should not have been up Fcx creek
and over to and down Ooble creek, in
stead of tlie impracticable course over
the Hills and ridges wnore now locaiea.
We presume tlie only excuse is some
pre-exisnng eix trail. ,
All of the roads would be greatly iro
proved by removal of the timber left
standing In the right of way, which
shuts out drying winds and sun and is
an element of danger to travelera. We
were somewhat incommoded on several
occasions by dead timber, recently fallen
across the road. We account for the un
usual amount of it only on the theory
that extra dry weather bad given the
borer an extra opportunity. There
wa a general complaint of unusually
dry weather, which seems to be a result
of prevailing winds and lack of dew,
rattier than hick of lato rains, but there
wa no apparent damage to fruit or
crops, and tlie observation of my trip
only confirm my belief that Columbia
countv cannot be excelled in fertility.
Thia ta made evident wherever there ia
a clearing and cultivation. With proper
cultivation Columbia county could sup
port a population of 60,000, though one
who onlv sees the hills fronting on the
Columbia would never think It.
vve crossed innumerauie iitue on
aifordinir attractive romping places, and
found ai Id feed in abundance, but the
rna.lv k I n. Iiirnn nf the farmers along the
route would supply ell demands of
beasts a well as their owners. One

Verifying Occurrence.
One is justified In singing the praise
nf (loin in hia countv. The commercial
wnrth nf the timlier lands here has
never been overestimated, and the
claim ot the moat sanguine were
founded on fact, and the statement
i.. , In hv the xealoua advocates of the
county's future were not overdrawn, as
recent occurrence demonstrate. Deeds
were filed with the county clerk this
week conveving title to lands in tne vi
niniiv nl (Johle at a much higher price
than any yet paid for Columbia county
timber lands. Fred Henderson, whose
Kill anrna laid some distance back of
ii,,l.la anhl Hid tract this week for (3800,
n.l I,.,., Knnnedv sold the timber on
100 acre for (4000. The purchaser is a
r-lilenmi irentleman. who acea far into
the future and is willing to pay what
timber is worth. Those transactions
seem to mean, too, that operations on
the Ooble logging road are not long to
nitml. The onoortiinities for
making money are too plentiful and too
certain to admit of a protracted tie-up
of that enterprise. Columbia county is
all right, aa wa have always maintained1,
and the future promises a great ucm.

what the outcome will be. Our idea ia
that it will cause no, end of litigation
and very little improvement to the

case, with the lurtner evidence mat tne
spirit of the law will be glaringly aDusea
in imnrovinir these stream, there should
be very little trouble in having the lawa
pertaining to unnavigable stream re
pealed or amended by the state legisla
ture. We do not think it right that
anyone should monopolize these streams
for the purpose of taxing all the timber
tributary to them. As people along
these streams have right which cannot
be ignored, it is only a matter ot time
before the situation will become inter
esting. It is an attair ol no Bmaii mag

that a farmer, to be successful, must
apply science to hi vocation. No one
can dlnpnte this, and it appear! to us
that if this scientific instruction could
be imiiretieed noon tiie minds of boys in
rural districts it would have a tendency
to make them more interested in farm
ing and less inclined to migrate to the
large cities. We think a county like
Tillamook should have some plan to
teach the bovs scientific dairying, for
thi is an industry peculiar to this sec
tion of the country. If it cannot be ob
tained in any other way, why not teach
tne rudiment oi practical ana ecieuuuc
dairying in the public high school?
we nope our peuagogue inenas win 1101
think that we want to multiply their
duties and responsibilities, but we think
that they and others will see tne logic
in employing an instructor especially
for that work, the outcome of which
would be young men going into dairying
with practical and scientific ideas in
stilled in them, which probably very
few of the dairymen in Tillamook county
bad an opportunity ol acquiring oeiore
they engaged in the industry, Tilla
