Reads the Observer
No one realizes better than the Grande Ronde
valley farmer that the agricultural news service
of The Observer the "Over the Valley" feature
edited by Miss Morton is the most extensive and
most successful ever attempted by any news
paper in Eastern Oregon.
Constant contact with the producers of the
valley daily calls on wheat farmers, poultry
raisers, orchard men, stockmen, farmers.specialrru
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 of this unique service has
been universal interest in The Observer through
out the agricultural sections of the entjc Hey.
