“The Fruit Grower”, of St. Joseph,
Missouri, has just issued a Homeseek
ers’ Edition, which contains an extend
ed report from all the fruit growing
distrtets of the West, and no one state
receives as much attention as Oregon.
'1 here is page after page of illustra
tion and text, and every part of the
state is given prominence. In fact,
Oregon probably gets more attention
than any other two states. This is
true because the state is better organ
ized, doing letter advertising, has
more goo I picture: and has learned
how to present its resources and at
tractions better than any other state
in the Union.
No m r ■ I e mtiful publication has
been issued in Oregon than the one
just from the press which gives most
graphically the resources and attrac
tions of Lincoln Coun y. It is issued
jointly by the commercial bodies of
Newp rt, Toledo, Elk City, and Wald
