UNION COUNTY
Union County presents to the home seeker a greater number of diversified
industries than any county in the state, out side of Multnomah county which Is
practically Portland. .
We do not believe that there is another county in the Inland Empire that can
show fourteen different industries whose total annual revenue produces an average of
$193,ooo.oo cash.
The annual report of the State labor Commissioner, places Union County third
in the state, in the employment of labor
It requires 194 solid trains of fourtv cars each to carr the produce of our
county to the market, more than a train every other day throughout the year.
"An admirable climate." The past winter only for a few hours did the mercury
reach zero. ,No excessive heat in the summer and our cool refreshing nights cannot
be appreciated by the residents of the east until the are permitted to enjoy them. '
Our soil is rich and productive. Were we to mention ields they would not be
believed. The only way to become acquainted with this "Garden of Eden" is to
personl visit this land of diversity, as when you see the crops growing and harvested
they speak for themselves. '.
- Our forrests will require man many decades of the present activity befoie they
begin to yield and we now have thirty or more 'sawmills which give employment the
year round in the mills and logging camps 1 "
e
The only sugar beet factory in the state it located at La Grande, the County Seat of Union County
with a population of 6.000, progressive wide awake people who extend the glad hand to all. This it
the commercial, educational and tocial center of the county.
La Grande it known at the railroad town of the 0. R. St N. Co. whose annual payroll at thit place
exceedt $300,000.00. From here the branch road is now pushing through the northern part of this
county, on into the Wallowa County, starts a freight division, machine shops, round houses, and one of
the largest railroad yards on the system, and train dispatchers office. The public schools of La Grande
are second to none in cities of this size in this state. We now have three buildings and a fourth, an
eight room brick building in course of construction, giving imployment to twenty-two teachers, i The
principal office of the Geande Ronde Electric Co. is located in thit city. Thit Company furnishet power
and light for the city of La Grande. Island Citv. Cove. Union, and the Hot Lake Sanitorium.
