"Falrmount" Is Selected
Editor Courier: Being the advan
tage of the idea of .naming ttlie farms
of Clackamas couuty, we have named
our farm "Fairniount Farm" for two
roafions: First because all of our
children were born near Fairniount
Park in Philadelphia, and the name
tor that reason holds inany pleasant
memories for us; second because our
house is situated on the top of a pic
turesque little knoll, and affords us
a fine view of the surrounding country.
Our farm, which consists of 80 acres,
is located at Shnbel. We raise chick
ens and small fruit.
Respectfully yours,
MRS. O. II. KlRBYSON.
