Today it is known to all who have seen it and thousands of others as the Garden Spot of the Inland Em pire. La Grande is recognized as the hub city of Eastern Oregon. All experts s.iy ' Grande Ronde Valley is the largest, riche3 1 body of land in the west. Due to years of healthful dlevelopmen t, La Grande and Union county have earn ed a well merited reputation of being the m ost prosperous city and county in Oregon. Due to its favorable location La Grande ha s prospered by help of the largest pryroll in the state outside of Portland; and due to its enviable soil and climate Grande Ronde Valley has prospered by reason of the most diversified yield of any county in the West As La Grande has grown it has provided! market facilities for the encrm jus production of the Grande Ronde Valley; and the valley in turn has cheaply furnished the city with the necessities o life. And in addition the hills and meadows of Union county surrounding the great valley yield cattle, and horses, and timber, and gold and power. This community has long been known as a city where business is always goodl, where citizens are seldom out of employment, where homes and f-.rms lands are reasonable, and where crops are certain. And the people of this soction are wide awake, progressive, developer?. But of late years a new fame has come to this favored locality. Added to the thrift of the people has grown the desire for culture. During the past few years La Grande has built some splendid churches, a $100,000.00 high school and three fine modern grade schools, a large public library; and a Y. M. C. A. is now in course of construction. The women of La Grande have provided the city with one of nature's grandest beauty rpots as a natural park, and by their gift incidentally provided an ideal home for the Grand Ronde Chautauqua assembly that is doing its share to bring La Grande forward as the educational and cultural center of Eas.ern Oregon.
