Ideas about the QuailUWatioiis of tha coun try hs Uvea in for bis particular line of Business, emu talks of them In no un certain manner. In an Interview yester day with an Astorlan renreaen'tatlvA ha aattd: "The tide land artd bottom tar! i'imr the streams In Clatsoo countv cannot ha beaten In the United States for growling any species of fruit and vegetable which can cultivated m our climate. I Wave lived in the county for more than ten years, and though I have been over one greater portion of the bottoms It con tains I have never yet seen any hard nan earth. Up at the head watera of the Lewis and Clarke, where the banks are out twelve feet deep, the soil from the bottom of the cut to the top is oil the same-magnificent black loam formed by one oepostts of decayed vegetable matter whldh have been washed down from the forests fkxr centuries. . While the tide !iands are not proportionately as rich as the bottoms, their fertility would open the eyes of many a thriving Eastern farmer. We have been raising nearly four tons of hay to the acre on this land every year for the last ten years, and expect to be able to get the same returns for tho next ten yeara We don't want Irriga tion In CX ait nop county, but, even 4f we did, ell that need be done Is to open the tide boxes. As far as the bottom lands are concerned, it Is an absolute fact that our farmers have no use for manure, except for gardening purposes. The hay grows as big and rank as wo can handle It without any artificial work on the land. - - - vwtsop county's dairying Interests are growing in Importance every year. ... The pasturage 4s fine, green and. Juicy, and When our people, wake up a little rnore to .the Importance of . this Industry the returns will be wonderful. There is no better' butter put up anywhere in the world: than we are raising right here to day. I was born and brought up in Franklin county, Vermont, the banner county of the United States for butter, and our product 4n taste and color is equal to anything I ever saw there. Our pasturage la splendid. You can go and olear the brutlh oft any of our bottom land, sow in the oaita, and in a year of leas it will be covered with .white clover that come In naturally. I have never heard of any sickness or epidemic among our stock. The cows thrive and do well. "The bottoms will produce from 200 to 400 bushels of potatoes to the acre, and with leea care than most of the states can obtain Imf.f thlait quantity. The e Is no stone or hard substance of any kind in the toll. The yield of oats are ex-' farAArdlnnril v crrr InHwl T Ihtaiva r, air an heard ot sudh uniformly fine crops. We never thresh our oaits, but cut them for oat Ovaiy exclusively. On the 2i of June, in 1894, when I out the growth, It was 7 ft, in height, with heads from 10 to 12 inches long and laden heavier than any oats I ever saw. 1 have taken 56 sacks of tur nips off one-, tenth of an acre of this landMand that means over (500 to the acre In turnips alone. All varieties of potatoes do well We plant them right In and don't touch, them with a hoe at aU. Hay, oats and potatoes ere our most proline growths, though every rpe oies of garden produce does exceptionally well, and tfhe pasturage Is good all the year round. "Apples, pears and every kind of fruit suited to the climate grow healthy and in profusion. The growth of ihe trees Is very great, and they need more trim ming here on this account than in many other places, "There 1b a very targe area of thCs line land m CCetsop county still undeveloped, and a great deal of undyked tide land that could be turned to splendid ad vantage. There are full 6,000 acres In the vleHnlty of Young's river, and much more than that near the Lewis and Clarke. The county abounds in fprlngs containing fins water, and anywhere one can get the best he wants by digging a well from fifteen to etgfhteen feet deep." . FOOT BALL.
