Constant contact with the producers of the valley daily calls on wheat farmers, poultry raisers, orchard men, stockmen, farmers special izing in dairying, small fruits and vegetables these personal contacts in all sections of the val ley are the source of an ever-interesting volume of farm news not found in any other paper in Oregon. The natural result 6f this unique service has been universal interest in The Observer through out the agricultural sections of the entire valley. Doub le the Valley N and Double the':' Valley Circulation ews Of Any Paper Circulated in the La Grande Territory Farm readers follow farm news the superior Valley News Service of The Observer has been -followed by a steady voluntary increase in the number of farm readers the last two years a greater number by many hundreds than ever be fore in the history of the paper.
