"Angora goat raising la becoming a

He le the grandson of theLewls after

being the oldest Polk county pioneer.
There le something in our v climate

breeding of the animal. They aeem to
thrive better there than In moat any
other aeotlou Of the state. , - .
There waa a time when we raised
goats only for our own use, but now
we supply Montana ana otner western
states' with kids. We get a good price
for our yearlings, not only becauee the
supply la not equal to the demand, hut
because bur goats produce an excep
tional quality of wool , , ' '
'Although the goat is ev naroy animai
when It gets big enough, to take care
of Itself, the young' had ; practically
to be taken cars' of by the owner of
the herd or hie hired help. I think the
Angora goat la the only animal that
ahowe little or no maternal affection.
When the lame la born the mother. In
nine cases out of ten, will desert the

Mr. Whitney, and to Keep ;Thetn
There Oregon Must Tell Country
Convincingly of Its Resources.
"The recent Lewis and Clark fair haa
caused the eyee of the east and every
other portion of the country to be di
rected te Portland and Oregon as they
never have been before. If the People
of Portland are to keep thia Interest and
atteauoa arawa to their city and-atata.
tney must do something. Now la the
time to do It. Strike while the Iron la
hot and strike hard and this stats will
get the beneflta .It deeervee to receive."
Bo epoke F. I. Whitney, paasenser
traffle manager of the Great Northern,
Mr. Whitney spent yesterday In the city
in company with B. Campbell. vice-
president of the road; W. w. Broughton,
freight traffic manager;1 H. ' M. Adams,
aaelatant trafflo manager, and 8. O.
Tsrkee, aaelatant ' geners r - passenger

Broughton are from St Paul, while
Messrs. Adams and Terkee are from Se
attle. The visitors from St.- Paul are
out on an annual tour of Inspection and
left laat ,nlght for Seattle, whence they
will return to the eaat.
"The Lewis and Clark exposition served
to center the attention of the eaat on
this country more than , ever
Mr. Whitney.. fThe question now
is, how can thla Interest be held and
intensified? ; The people of the city and
state contributed their money and lent
every aid and support to the fair, and
it waa a success. . Those same people.
aa a matter of pride and thankfulness
for the suoeees of the undertaking.
ahould exert themselves to keep this
good work going on. The city of Port
land can. only be as large aa It. haa
resources and people to draw from. Tou
have a valley down aoutb here that la
capable of supporting a million people,
twice as many ae there are la the state.
What you want to do Is to get some
of the 00.000,000 people In the country
to settle in that valley."
.. Thle can be accomplished. Mr. Whitney
points out, only by making the
sources of Orogon known to the world
In a manner that will convince them
that Oregon offers better opportunitlea
than are afforded them elsewhere.
' "Tou have here resources that no other-
state in the union can boast," aald Mr.
Whitney. . -tou nave agricultural re
sources, your fisheries, worth millions
of dollars, your timber resources and
others that have never been developed.
People In the east are hot acquainted
with these things. .It Is tha duty of
the people of Oregon to make them ac
quainted.
While the railroads advertise the re
sources of (ha state, Mr. Whitney points
out that railroad advertising Is looked
askance becauee 'the people think It
a scheme to get their money for tickets;
and such edvertlalng, he says, haa of
necessity to be general. It cannot be
devoted to the Interests of one secUon
to the disadvantage of another.
"Hence tt ls the duty of the people

of thle state are properly brought to
