We left here ill the morning at about eight o’clock and drove np the valley through Muhania, Lyons and on to Mill City arriving there shortly before noon. It was a revelation to the «tlitor to make the trip. He had been told much about the possibilities, but like many others lie did not realize that there was such a great expanse of valuable lands Ijing almost idle, await ing tin- yeomans plo^. It is not impossible to add five thou sand people to the section between Htayton and Mill City and yet not f>e crowded. There If sufficient timber fur to make It profitable In maniain saw mills as well ns to supply the harder wood« to the factories located along the Hantiam River, especially the Chair factory in this city. In the vicinity of Mvliama we saw vast stuhble fields front which we could see splenditl yields of wheat and oats had been taken. The grain was yet in slack awaiting the thresher. Above there we ¡came into a greater fruit belt, apples pears, prunes, plums etc were growing In prolusion with Dated II.I. Ith day but cniupsrativcly little attention. of August taus. Without doubt this section of Mar ‘/7-S2 ion county right now can discount the Hood River and Ashland districts in the raising of line fruits. It is not necessary to irrigate, neither do they |ia\c the various kinds of pests so common to many sections. Tho t ie-1 vatlon is just right,Mud all fruits have a splendid flavor. The black berries grow wild along the entire route and ar into the mountains. It is truly marvelous that |>enple looking for homes will locate around big towns, pay six to ten tlm**» more than the land is worth and thousands of acres of the finest land that ever lay out of doors awaiting their lalairs. 1 We can say to anyone who has a friend in the east or elsewhere that wants to I make a change that they can do no better than to locate between Htayton Itnd Mill Oily, * We do not say this in the hope to discourage residents of other sections, hut we do siy that we will put our section against the world. Here we are, with transportation soon assured only three hours from 1’ortlaud, the metropolis of the I’aciljc North west. Jjvcu now there is not a commodity produced In thi* section that tines not find a rendy market. Mill City i* properly its well its correctly named. It is a great pleas ure to go through the immense plant there and see the mighty tirs rush into the head sawyers clutch, and in the short space of three minutes he returned to the same end of the mill hut iu a va«lly changed form, they arc ready for the carpenters use in the erecting of homes or building* of any so rt. The Curtis Lu tuber Company is to he congratulated upon the way they have built up their community. They employ so we nr« told, from three hun dred to four hundred and fifty men. Hitch an institution alone means much to any community in which it is located.
