BARBER) The Willamette valley presents the largest area of high grade ag ricultural land of any other one continuous section in the Pacific coast states. ' . ; These jands, In one particular, resemble the Irishman's whiskey; ''Some of it. is good and some of Ht is better, but there is none pf it bad." The value of any section ffor agricultural purposes, while based upon the productive qual ity of the land, is also determined In part by the nature of the soil, its chief characteristics, the alti tude, climate as to rain, wind, sun shine; the slope of the land and nature of Its surface, drainage for both air and water, nature of sub soil, etc.; Certain sections of these lands have been demonstrated as being more especially adapted . to the growing of given varieties of prod ucts, and as a result those sec tions specialize on the particular product. In one section it is prunes, In another berries, in an other ipples, pears, peaches, to matoes, celery, onions all have their production centers which are based upon , the soil and cli matic conditions that produce their specialty of a better quality and In a larger quantity than oth er localities. It is this great var iety of adaptable centers of suf ficient area to produce the spec ialty in commercial quantity, that gives the Willamette valley a sort of strangle hold on high class ag ricultural products in commercial quantities large enough to . com mand a j national market. This means a stable market. These conditions also contrib ute, In a very large way to the rap id development of the entire val ley. Neighborhood rivalries are eliminated. Rogue River toma toes do not compete with any oth er locality in western Oregon. Hood River apples have a field of their own. The Labfsh Meadows produce onions and celery without exciting jealousies in any of their neighbors. . All of these facts are essential information for those who con template coming to Oregon. They give a wide range of selection of localities. The homeseeker and investor .may determine the par ticular line they, wish to follow and then select the community which presents conditions most favorable to their choice. Consider Falls City Falls City presents features which are worthy of serious con sideration of all prospective set tlers before making a final choice of location. It is the center of about 100 .square miles of fine ag ricultural lands having many es- meeting'of -the sovereign grand lodge of the United States to be held In Portland In September. Thig is the first time the grand lodge has ever met west of the Rocky: mountains. All members of .the two organizations are look ing forward to this meeting with great interest. Let's all help Falls City do her bit to make this the most -wonderful meetinsr ever held by this- organization. l American Forest Week The week beginning April 27, to Sunday, , May ' 3, has been set aside by proclamation issued by the president of the United States to be observed as American Forest week. - Plans are completed for observance of this week In the public schools. If tho patrons of the schools want to hear some snappy songs just go to school during thia week and hear the youngsters sing.
