WRITE THE LETTERS.
August is a mouth of golden oppor-
tunity to write those letters to east-
em friends, telling of the chances for
men With a moderate amount of Cap -
ital to become Independent in a few-
years on Clackamas county farms.
August is the best month to write
those letters because the homeseek
iprs from the central west are now
deciding w here they shall go, and on
September 1 the one-way colonist
rates to Oregon go into effect
Over In Tillamook county 600 let-
ters were sent East last winter and
were directly responsible in bringing
a number of settlers to that county
in March and April.
This matter of letter writing is
urged because it is most effective of i
all methods in attracting people from
the East to come here.
It should not be forgotten to make
very plain in the letters that buyers
of colonist tickets should see that
the ticket reads through to the sta
tion they wan to reach. The rate
from all Missouri river points, and
Minneapolis and St. Paul to any sta
tion in Clackamas county Is $23. That
Includes all points in Kansas, Ne- i
braska. the Dakotas and Minnesota.
From points in Iowa and Missouri to
Clackamas county stations the fare i
Is $30. From Chicago the rate is $33 i
end farther East at proportionate in
crease. !

If the present dullness in the Port

much longer, several thousand real

The reports from the harvest fields
of Clackamas insure another year of
prosperity to the farmers. The yield
may not reach last year's big total
but the quality was never finer.
