But that which is the greatest buttle and in whi, h the true-t honor and the most success are to be won, is that which our i:i- tellect and ieagoil and moral sens»', our spiritual natures, tight against— our sensual appetites and animal nature. Therein only are the true glories of heroism to lie won, there only the successes that entitle us to triumphs.

There has been suffici ent, though to cause no serious com plaint, and all arc happy with the con ditions vouchsafed us.

Polk county is free from debt, is well supplied with good roads and bridges, making taxes light. Polk county is the home of blooded horses, cattle, goats, sheep and hogs in Oregon. Hogs do well here and are entirely free from disease. Running streams and living springs furnish an abundance of pure water for stock, even in the driest season. Polk is the banner Angora goat comity in Oregon, and ranks as third goat countv in tin* United BUtci. The money realized from the goat industry is all profit, and the goats more than pay their way by helping the farmer clear his hand. You will notice by looking over our list that some are described as hill land and goat land, etc. These places are all good fruit land, raising apples that are superior, in point of flavor and equal in keeping qualities to the famous Hood River apples, known all over the world, and we don’ t ask $500 to $1000 an acre either. The lands described as hill and goat farms, usually has grub oak ranging in size from 4 to 10 inenes, some white oak 48 inches in diameter.
