TILJAMOOK. Or.. Dec. it. iSpedal.V
T!llmook stands oik a the leading
county In Oregon fitted in every possible
way for the cranberry industry. Atmos
pheric conditions, plenty of water and
nioisure in the soil, surh a exist in
Tinamolc in thj Summer ninntlia. are
h!! favorable to raising cranberries.
There are thousands of acres of non
productive land in TUlaruo.ik which is
well adapted for cranberry bogs, and
now that railroad connections are as
sured next year Iih Portland the in
dustry will (trow.
It Is only a few years ago tliat dajry
1n; in Tiiianiouk fount. v was in ils in
fancy, yet today it has a wide reputa
tion as the leading county in Oregon for
ltj dairy products, especially. ciieose. and
the most prosperous section, considering
the population. The cranffrry Indus! ry
today is In its infancy in Tillamook
County, with a great future before it.
The industry lias passed its experimental
etages. and it is now and lias been for
several years .a demonstrated fact that
Tillamook can raise as fine flavored cran
berries as anywhere in the I'nited States.
Not only so. but those who have been
engaged in the business have found it a
profitable business, for the hogs have
turned out a gigantic success. Most of
the cranberries are raised In the Sand
lake district, where the first bogs were
prepared, and since then the demand
for Tillamook cranberries has been so
(treat that the crop Is soon bought up.
In fact, this year the berries were con
tracted for at good figures before they
were picked.
W. C. King was the first to experiment
with the berries some few years ago
at Sandlake. IJke every other indus
try. It requires labor and a certain
amount of capital to develop. fr. King
says:
"I find that the vines are well adapted
to the climate in Tillamook. They grow
vigorously and where, the bogs are prop
erly prepared they are enormously pro
ductive. 'While picking a crop I meas
ured off om ground and picked them
carefully, and found that they produced
at the rate of 1 bushels to the acre.
Allowing one dollar a bushel as a net
profit. I do not know of an asrriciiltural
product that will compare with It. and
a net profit of one dollar Is placing fig
ures extremely low.
"It costs from $!J0 to H0 per acre to
rrepare the ground and plant the vines.
Including the cost of plants. The land
which has timber standing on it is the.
most expensive to prepare, although none
the less adapted to the raising of cran
berries so long as It Is made up of
vegetable mjick or peat.
"The bog must be so situated that It
can be drained by means of ditches to
tit dep'h of at least 13 Inches, and one
must also have control of plenty of
water for irrigation and flooding pur
pones. "A bog once set in the proper shape
will last indefinitely. The first cos;,
though large, cuts little figure 1n the
long run. The cranberries grown In
Tillamook are. or a darker color than
those grown in the Kast. They are much
superior in flavor, and weigh more to
fie bushel. The slxe of the berry is about
tbe same.
"The- picking season is one of pleasure
to both picker and proprietor. IJnes are
stretched across a plot of ground three
feet apart, and each picker works be
tween the lines, the vines making a com
v carnet unon which to work. They
hang on uprights about six Inches high.
The berries are a bright red color, and In
rnanv cases three and four deep, and
touching each other, completely hiding
the ground and vines beneath.
"In the- East the vines are often In
fested with Insect pests, and if the grow
ers have not the control of water the
whole crop is In danger. I understand
the posts have been imported here at
different times in shipping plants, but
they soon disappear, as they cannot thrive
!n this climate."

BANDON SENDS LOBBY EAST
BINGKK HERMANN MAKES TRIP
TO WASHINGTON.
Goen lu Interest Congress in Appro
priation for Deeper Channel
in Coqnille River.
BAXDOX, Or.. Dec. 20 (Special.) At
a recent meeting of the commercial
clubs of the Coquille Valley, it was de
cided to send a special representative
to Congress to lobby for this river and
harbor. Kx-Congressman BInger Herman
was selected and lias already gone to
Washington, yjiere he will work in the
interests of an appropriation for the pur
pose of dredging the river and improv
ing the Government . jetty which was
built here last year. The prospects for
such an appropriation seem very flatter
ing and it is thought there will be no
trouble in securing it, as a number of
Congressmen have designated their will
ingness to work for the appropriation.
The new jetty, on the inside of the bar,
which is being constructed by the citi
zens of Bandon and vicinity, at a cost
of about JlO.tNHt, .is proving to be a great
sncce. and there is now from 22 to 5
feet of water on the bar at high tide.
There are now two or three projects
on foot for new Industries in Kuntlon,
one of whica is sure to materialize in
course of the next two months and the
others are very favorable for early cul
mination. Real estate is moving more
rapidly than at any time for a year,
and at greatly increased prices.
Colonel C. T. Blumenrother, who has
recently returned from the East, where
he has been In the Interests of the pro
posed paper and pulp mill for this city,
reports that Kastern capitalists are great
ly interested In tne proposition and are
ready to invest their money as . soon as
arrangements can be made. There are a
number of details to he arranged yet,
but tt is confidently believed that actual
work on the proposition will begin in the
near future.

decided to give It. a trial, and the re

well." Henry Cunningham, Elder Bap

Vinol Is not a patent medicine but a
preparation composed of the medicinal
elements of cods' livers, combined with
a tonic iron and wine. Vinol creates
a hearty appetite, tones up the organs
of digestion and makes rich, red blood.
In this natural manner, Vinol creates
strength for the run-dows, over
worked and debilitated, and for deli

chronic coughs, colds and bronchitis
Vinol is unexcelled.

MEN-don't be a
"trial-horse"
for any doctor
Consult Me First
Even though your case may be one that some
other doctor in able to cure, and though his cure
be absolutely thorough and permanent, there is
yet good cause for your coming to me for treat
ment. The service I render is entirely unlike
and better than the ordinary. I have devised
new and scientific methods of treating men's
diseases in all -their phases. I cure' cases that
others cannot cure, and cases that others: can
cure I cure in less time and without pain or
possibility of injury. All my forms of treatment
have been perfected along- the lines of Nature's
requirements and are in exact harmony witlt
the natural recuperative forces. Therefore, my
cures are. painless, prompt and thorough.
My Fee For &
CURE Is Only
1
qp iL
I Will Wait For My Fee Until I Cure You
CONTRACTED DISORDERS
The serious results that may follow neg
lect of diseases could scarcely he exagger
ated. Safety demands an absolutely thor
ough cure in the- least possible time. I have
treated more coses of these disorders than
any other physician upon the Pacific Coast.
My cures are thorough and are accomplished
In less time than other forms of treatment
require in producing- even doubtful results.
I employ remedies of my own devising, and
my treatment is equally effective in both re
cent and chronic cases.
I TREAT MEN ONLY
The vast multitude of men wno have taken
mv treatment have not been disappointed.
Thev know that I do not promise more than
I perform. To them I have actually illus
trated in the cure of their own cases the
truth of what 1 claim, namely, that my treat
ment is as certain to cure as it is tliat in
patient engages my services and follows my
directions. My success is due not alone to
education, experience, skill and scientific
equipment, but to the tact that I limit my
studv and practice s'trlctlv to diseases and
weaknesses of men. To mile maladies alone
1 have earnestlv and exclusively devoted 25
years of my life, and on them all my facul
ties are concentrated.
