Editor Observer;
I have been thinking that
perhaps a few lines from this
part of the country would be of
interest to the people of Union
County
, Gorvalhs is a" town of about
3000 population situated on the
weat side of tbe Willamette
River some 90 miles south of
Portland at one time a thriving
Rail Road town but at present
it gams - its support from the
surrounding country and the
Agricultural College which is
situated here, the Receipts from
the College are from $80,000
$100,000 per year I have -been
struck with the truthfulness of
the argument presented by 'our
wet brethren that th&J grass
woald grow in the streets of a
dry . town for. I have found such
tcfbe the case here, this town
went dry (inwardly) the first of
the year since that time the
grass has grown very rapidly
While they manage to keep it
down on the principal streets
yet in the alleys aud back streets
there is a luxurious growth
Now, while one will have to
admit after seeing this that
graBS will grow when rum is
prohibited, yet it is not so bad
as they would have us believe,
for it not only does way with
tbe dust on those streets, where
the sprinkler doa'ent reach
There has not been a particle of
dust since the first of the year
But it can be made to bring in
quite a revinue to the city in
way of pasture for that "town
cow" a problem our wet town
have been trying to solve for,
lo! those many years. Tbe
cow here is not allowed to run
at largs but is protected with
or rope some thirty feet long
This is changed once a day,
and at ten cents a day would
bring in quite a sum. for some
of our towns You may ask if the
people are satisfied with the
change. In answer I will cite
you to a mass m:eting
which was held in this town
few days ago the meeting was
called to get the sentiment as
to the change of Local Option
Law. It was unanious against
changing it. I have ne.vei
heard of an arrest being made or
any disorderly conduction the
streets. The Co.leg is situated
on an elevation west of the town
proper, this I will . not try to
describe at this time for want
of time. There are about 630
students enrolled in the different
departments. There ia a class
of one hundred in wood work
of which .ten are young ladies,
they are supposed to give one
hour a day to this work. There
are about the same -number in
the blacksmith ehop'Tliere is
quite a class in the machine
shop, but as I understand only
seniors can take this course the
class is 'much . smaller. There
are large classes in all tbe other
departments such ai Horticult
ure, Floriculture, Mining, En
Eineerine, Surveying, Dairing,
In fact averything needed in the
ordinary affairs of life is taught
here. For those who are old
er and have not had the advant
ages of such a school, they
give a short course in Farming
and Dairing, which every farm
er and dairy man should take.
While the lectures are free yet
they take up the latest and
most scientific means of hand
ling these indastries A more
compitent and obliging set of
Professors it has never been
my lotto meet. Every one seems
to be anxious that his part is
thoroughly understood by -the
class. They never tire of
questions by those who are try
ing to learn. The students are
all required to take the physi
culture except those who are
physically liable. A more
healthy lot of students one
seldoms (ees, and for gentleman
ly and lady like conduct it is
not to be surpassed.
