cause for II years it has been com

l.as been enlarged and beautified In
many ways. I'urther than that, the
management has always left behind It
an enviable record for making good Its

Its power to rater to the public taste

This season. If reports be trne. the

history of tented attractions; all of
which goes to show that the policy of

was unique In the circus world.

the now famous new-born baby ele

sgo. He is the only elephant ever born
and .bred In captivity In thla country,
and since his arrival has been the
means of attracting thousands to the

Pewtlaaa Sals Batter.
I have written before something
about th Tillamook creameries, as the
cheese factories are called. l have
mad mention of the splendid organisa
tion for the manufacture and sale of
their products. But I, as perhaps many J
of th readers of this article, nave
often wondered why they did sot make
batter as well as cheese. The question
Is very simple Inadequate and uncer
tain transportation. Butter has to be
marketed very aoon after It a made.
Days and even hours of delay often
spell ruin. With cheese a tew days or
even a couple of weeks makes but lit
tle difference. So the dairymen con
fined their efforta to the manufacture
of cheese, and bare built up a reputa
tion second to no other seotlon of this
country.
It may sound strange to tell that
nearly all of the butter consumed In
tbe county Is shipped from Portland,
but such Is a fact. And although so
much milk is produced there It is prof
itable for the dairymen to sell their
milk and bring In their butter from
afar. , i
The creamerlea, I. a., the cheese fac
tories, of which there are something
like 40 In the county, are all co-operative
concerns they all belong to
the people who furnish them with tbe
milk, the profits all o to the dairy
men. In other words, the dairymen get
every cent the milk brings when mad
Into cheese, less tna nst cost oi sale
and manufacture.
Cass pemloa Is Eliminated.
But these 40 creameries are operated.
to all Intents and purposes as one, for
tbe entire output of tne county la sold
by one man, the sales agent for the
consolidation. Hence there la no price
cutting, ore factory does not 11a Idle
while otbera are running full Urn,
each one Is protected and there la a
certainty of Its product standing the
same ahow of stile, and at the aame
price, as that of its neighbor.
One might dwell with profit upon
thla one phase of the Tillamook cheese
Industry. It might be well to Inquire
why It is that in other places the same
organisation Is not effected for the
disposal of butter, eggs, potatoes and
other producta. It would be worth
while to ask the potato-growers around
Canby. from which place aome 400 cars
of potatoes are shipped every year. It
It would not be advisable tor tnem to
look Into the Tillamook situation and
work on a co-operative basis.
For three things the Tillamook coun
try Is going to be famous: Its cheese.
Its timber and Its Summer resorts. Full
mention has been made of the former,
now Just a word about the timber of
the county. They claim to have one
fifth of the 200,000,000.000 feet of the
standing timber of Oregon, as Oregon
haa about one-fifth of all that of the
United Btatea And a large percentage
of the Tillamook trees are on the weat.
era slope of the Coast Range, a down
hill pull to ' Nehalem and Tillamook
Bays. The timber cruisers aver that
the Tillamook forests are the finest In
Oregon, that for milling purposes the
product Is unexcelled In the country,
that It Is more easily accessible to
the water courses than that of any
other aectlon. Much of It atanda on I
large level prateaus, where a donkey
.engine can get It to the feeding roads
to be built, or to the watercourses, at
a less axpensa than In any other aec
tlon. Wealth la Mar.
Pause a moment and look at Tilla
mook's timber wealth. Suppose every
tree Is owned by non-residents, which
Is far from the caae. Suppose that the
people of the county can only look to
th money to be derived by labor for
cutting and milling. This. I am told,
will amount to IS a thousand feet
cut It to $4. Then cut the product In
half, to 20,000.000.000 feet. Cut that In
two again, and there la the sum of
figure It yourself for I grow dlxxy at
the possibilities there are In the mere
question of labor alone.
I could not give a dissertation on
the Summer resorts without being sub
ject to criticism If I mentioned the
possibilities and advantagea of all or
any of them. Stretching all around the
baya and along the coast from Cape
Lookout to the Clatsop County line
trtere are dozens of them. Some have
advantages over others. Some are
over-boomed for the eale of lots, oth
ers are but little known. But It Is
certain, now that the country la "an
nexed" to the Bummer outing commun
ity, there will be a regular fare of only
14 for the round trip from Portland,
with a still lower rate for ten or more
trips, that all of these resorts will
be well peopled during the Summers
and more than one of them will be
coaie as famous as any on the Coast.
ftportaaiaa'a Paradise Feaad.
If one wants an outing for "rough
pleasure," as I may put It. I. e., to
camp and enjoy fishing and hunting,
there are no better spots to be found
In Oregon than along the streams la
Tillamook. On the Wilson. Trask. Ne
halem or other rivers, and such streams
as the Salmonberrv on all of the Til
lamook atreama there la the finest of
trout fishing, and in the mountains
deer Innumerable. The "sportsman's
paradise" t!-.at we have so often read
and heard about lies along the Tilla
mook streams.
la conclusion a word of praise to
the Tillamook County people, tha big
hearted, open-handed and liberal-minded
citizens of that beautiful section
to ail many words of praise and thanks
for their hospitality.
To the Harriman people who opened
up this country and who gave us such
a splendid trip, on such a splendid
train, without a hitch or Jar, or delay
In the arrangements to the officials
responsible for such .arrangements
thanks and plaudits. L. R. Fields, the
assistant auperttendent. waa with ua
and to him we owe a double debt
for the working out of the details and
his pleasant companionship.
BT ADDISON RgJNNETT.
"yllB recent excursion of the buel
I ness men of Portland, under tha
auspices of the Portland Commer
cial club, waa. In many respects, one
ef the most profitable the club ever
tent out. I do not mean the word
vrofltable in a quick and direct finan
cial sense, although many of the com
mercial houees represented will mora
than likely reap such benefits; 1 mean
ITofltabla la a cementing of relations,
la showing the people of Tillamook
County that the people of Portland ap
preciate the efforts the citizens of that
section have evidenced In tbe past. In
living them to understand that we are
ana with them In building up their sec
tion of the commonwealth, as we have
Lertofora given the people of other
sections to fully understand.
One of tha best evidences of this
strong brotherly and neighborly feel
ing was shown at the banquet In Tllla
aook on the evening of the first day
ut. when the excursionists sponta
Sieoualy subscribed nearly 14000 to
wards the election of a fine hotel In
that town. But I do not think this
waa especially a compliment to Tilla
mook the town, but rather to the coun
try as a whole, and when Bay City and
Nehalem come to tia for help It Is cer
tain they will receive It.
120,000 Hotel Plaaaed.
The two latter towns are pretty well
provided with hotel accommodations
new, but there Is a crying need for
more and better accommodations la the
former town. It Is proposed to ex
pend about $15,000 In the erection of a
splendid modern hostelry In Tillamook,
and we may be sure It will be accom
plished In the near future. '
To show how little the Portland peo
ple know of the Tillamook country It
la only necessary to point to a count
that L. Samuels, of the Oregon Life,
made as we were on our way over.
There were OS excursionists, not count
ing the train crew, and of these only 17
had previously rtslted the county, and
more than half of theae had made their
trlpa many years ago. and only about
IS had any fair conception of tha aec
tlon. In other words, tbe Tillamook
country has been almost a closed book
to us.
This came from the fact that the
only ways of getting there were the
mountain trails over tbe Coast Range
and the boats. Tha former trips were
pretty hard and few undertook tbem
and the time of the boats waa uncer
tain, aa the bars at the entrance of
Tillamook and Nehalem bays are
treacherous and often difficult or Im
possible to cegotiate.
Koaa la Be laaaravem. ..
But ona of the thousand and one
things tha people of Oregon have to
thank the Harlman lines for is the an
nexing of thla terltory by rail, the
building of the line from Hlllsboro
across the Coaat Range aa far as the
town of Tillamook. It waa a difficult
road to build. It la an expensive road to
operate and It will be a burden for tbe
Harlman lines for years to come. Aa

operated since January IS, 111J. a good

claL) The horse show held here
8aturday. May 2i. la which were
exhibited 101 horses and colts. Includ
ing standard-bred trotter, stalllona.
pacers, aaddle liorses. roadsters. 0r
man coach and all of the best
breeds of draft horses, was In every
way a success, and has aroused such
enthuslssm that a movement haa
been Inaugurated to secure a suit
able place for stabling horses dur
ing the next horse show. The
business men of McMlnnvllle have
appointed a committee to ascertain the
cost of grounds near the City Park
and the City Council la'falklnST the
matter over. It la aaked by the horse
men that the city provide suitable
grounds and stables to accommodate
100 horses for the next show, they
promising to provide the premiums.
One of tha finest teams to be seen
anywhere, waa that of John Tarmer. of
Bellevue. who recelveed first and sec
ond rlbboas for -year-old Clyde mares
and waa highly complimented by the
Judge. E. L. Potter, aecretsry of th
state board of Stallion registration.
Tha parade was excellent. It started
at the corner of Fifth and B streets,
going east on Fifth street and return
ing west on Main street, which was
lined with people from all sections of
the county. The parade ended at tha
went end of Main atreet opposite the
City Park, where the horses were
Judged and assigned their ribbons.
There were six or more different
breeds, and several classes ef each,
alao soma aplendhl trotters and pace re
from the Bewley racetrack and supsrb
roadsters and saddle corses.
There Is now talk of holding an
other horse show here this Fall, prob
ably la conjunction with the annual
carnival and school fair that will be
held here In th latter part of Pep
tember. this will depend upon whether
the city can get stables In readiness
In time.
The fact ia well known that Mc
Mlnnvllle baa a fine half-mil track
and th hors show has proven that
Yamhill County haa as fine horses as
are found tn th state. Tbe breeders
and owners had only one week'a no
tice of the Spring event and when al
lowed more time to prepare there will
be at least double th en t rise. There Is
no doubt In the minds ef local residents
that thla will become aa Important an
nuel event.

My first housekeeping experience
with an enormous kitchen spoiled me
for that sort of arrangement for all
time. That bare, cheerless room resem
bled nothing so much as a yawning
gulf into which one might sink article
after article without ever filling It up.
Our range, kitchen table and few chair
made no Impression whatever upon It
Immensity. A . large. high - backed
rocker with broad arms wss added, but
till the room continued to look un
furnished. A the next expedient, a
bulky roll-top desk waa pushed Into
one corner, pictures hung upon the
wall, and the floor covered with yard
upon yard of carpet. The result was a
dressed-up kitchen which fell Just
short of being an acceptable living
room. It waa neither one thing nor
the ether. At present I glory In an SxS
affair that would have shocked my
New England forebears beyond expres
sion. From the renter of It I can
pretty nearly touch sink, shelves, re
frigerator, window and stove all at th
same time, but never before her I
