L. Graham, district freight "and passenger agent of the Southern Pa cific. "Kupid development nf winter farming In Oregon, particularly in the Wiliametto valley, now is producing a constant supply of excellent fresh green vegetables so that such canned products practically have been climi-i unted from our dining cars." ,: This information was brought out in a report issued by Allan Pollock, manager of dining cars, restaurants and railway clubs, received by Mr. Graham at the assembly of freight and passenger agents at Portland, which he attended. Favorable com ment on these winter products of Oregon are being made by travelers from the east, Mr. Graham added. "Travelers served in dining cars aid materially in spreading the fame of products grown in the territory along Southern . Pacific linoB," said Mr. Graham.' "For this reason when an eastern resident eats such pro ducts in our diuing cars in winter and learns they are fresh from the farms here he cannot help but wish he had a home in the Willamette valley, and his own garden."
