The Sluslaw country raises some of the finest apples and vegetables in the world, but on account of the lack of transportation facilities there Is no encouragement for the farmers to raise more than they need for their own use. Apples that equal those grown in the famous Hood river and Rogue river valleys are shaken off the trees and fed to the hogs, and the same is done with the surplus imtatoes, corn and other veg etables which grow to enormous size In that fertile valley. It appears to be up to the county court to Improve the roads from here to Mapleton and up to the citizens to see that a railroad Is built to that country before .Mr. Carver reaches there with his road, in order that Eugene ntay retain the trade of that rich and prosperous section of Lane county. ♦ ♦ ♦ Th» 14-months-old child of D.
