THE CRUDE RONDE EVIDENCE OF GREAT PROS PERITY IN THE VALLEY. An Ideal Place for Sugar Beets Scenic Attractions of a High Rank The Hot Springs as a Health Re sort La Grande, Ore., March 25. La Grande is enjoying Its full share of prosperity everywhere In evidence In Eastern Oregon. The hotel registers show ' heavy travel. Many of the newcomers ore here with a view or locating; others are in search of home steads or timber claims. A Striking Contrast. The contrast between what Is known as tho "old town" and the more recently built portion of the city is very striking. The old town clus ters nt the foot of the hill and lives largely In the recollection of Its past. The bustling camp of the early 'fids is now a sleepy village. The moss covered roofs or Its old-time houses arc swept bv the drooping boughs of locust nnd balm of gllead trees plant ed by a generation largely gone. Below the old town and a mile dis tant is La Grande proper. The city Is surrounded by a rich and fertile farming country, which Insures the continued growth nnd prosperity of La Grande. Of late it has been dis covered, that the sand ridge laud Is susceptible of cultivation. This means an Increased production or bay. beef, and pork and Increased trnile. Mr La Grande. La Grande aspires to bo the county scut with good prospects of its hopes being realized In the near future. Rich and Fertile Soil. The Grande Hondo valley proved Itself to be an ideal place for the raising of sugar beets. This Indus try Is destined to become one of the lending Industries of this section. The sugar beet company yesterday purchased a lliO-acre form near Union. Tills tract will be subdivided nnd sold or rented to sugar beet raisers. One of the Institutions loented In the Grande Hunde valley, which is worthy of mnro than passing mention is the" state experiment station, locat ed at Union. Under the skillful man agement or A. B. I.eckenby, It is do ing a great deal for the upbuilding of the stnte's resources. Mr. i.eckenby Is having marked success In increas ing the nmount or sacherlne matter In the beets. He lias made some Im portant discoveries along this line or Investigation, which lie will short ly publish. In the line or drautb-re-sisting grasses be has nlso accom plished important results. Much or the soil or the Grande Ronde valley is or peat-like formation, being rich in humus, nitrogen and other elements of plant food. So rich is tho soli that one might say It was inexhaustible, and by using cover crops nnd rntntlon It will prove so. A Beautiful Valley. From the viewpoint of scenic at tractions the Grande Rondo valley takes high rank. Small wonder tbnt the hardy settlers .as they paused at the summit or the mountains, and looked down upon the smiling valley thought they had round a second gnr ilen of Eden. After the sun-parched wastes and shimmering heat of the plains, the verdant valley, with Its sparkling streams, its luxuriant grass nodding nnd swaying before the vag rant breeze like the rippling, dimpled, sun-kissed face of some Inland sea seemed to them and to their Jaded stock a vory puradlBe. When the Stewart party, returning from the coast, on their overlnnd Journey to the now east, but then the western outposts of civilization. In the summer of 1811 saw tho valley they were struck with Its beauty. In the graphic description of their Journeys as related by Washington Irving in Astoria, ho says: Washington Irving's Description. "The day was somewhat advanced before the travelers left the shady banks or the Umatilla. Their route gradually took them among the Blue mountains which assumed the most rugged aspect on a near approach. They wore shagged with dense nnd groonty forests nnd cut up by deep and precipitous ravines, extremely . n.n iinrstps. Some times the trnvolers bad to follow the course of some brawling sironm. . broken rocky bed, which the shoul- ...!.- iiiv- iii-nmnntfirlOS Oil either side obliged them to cross and recross. , , , ,,.

"Emerging from the chain of Bum mountains they descended upon a vast plain, nlmost a dead level, CO miles in circumference, of excellent soil, with flno streams meandering through In every direction, their courses marked out In the wide land scape by serpentine lines of cotton wood trees nnd willows, which fringed their banks and afforded sustenance . to great numbers of otters nnd benv-' ci s.

The vapor from this , pool was extremely noisome, nnd ; tainted the air for a considerable distance.
