This valley has AN ABUNDANCE of water supplied by the Silv’es and Blitzen rivers and their tribu taries, and other smaller streams, all of which have their outlets in the Malheur and Harney lakes. The Malheur and Harney lakes have no outlets. These two lakes are connected by an artificial chan nel and are on a level with each other, to the contrary notwithstand ing. as yon will observe by the maps giving the geography of this region.

It points, with pride to its well-filled columns the past year, and to its evident progressive influence upon the prosperity of the great Harney valley. As in the past so in the future it will strive to make prominent note of every enterprise calculated to benefit the people; to record every advance made in showing up the resources of the \ alley; to advocate Law and Order under all circumstances; to frown upon all attempts to foment discord among the people in the interest ot any individual, clique or faction; to give the news of the day impartially and as fully as industrious effort and the aid of friends may enable us to obtain it; to give all the Local and Personal gossip ot our section, suitable for publication, with all else of interest in this department; IT W’ILL BE AN EPITOMIZED HISTORY OF THE VALLEY to raise crops and gardens. The soil here contains all the properties necessary to make a successful grain growing country. Small fruit and shrubbery, and berries of near ly all kinds can be successfully raised here. as level ns your floor in bodies of thousands of acres, is here to be ta ken anti is just as good as any that is occupied. Home seekers in Ore gon cannot do better elsewhere. This Eden will not long remain in an unsettled state, but in a few short years this land will be all ta ken, the golden opportunities now offered will be improved. The climate is salubrious will compare favorably with other part of the ‘‘Inland Empire.” Burns and Harney are the princi pal towns and in tact are the only towns in the Harney valley.

To prove tiie truth PEACHES, FLOWERS, ot the strong language in its columns, tiie proprietor gave up a part ot his oilice room to the exhibition of the products of tin Valley, and urgently asked for specimens cf actual growth ami for every! dy j to call and inspect them.

How successful this movement has been, hundreds can testify I All T he H erald asks in return tor itsefl’orts to serve the people, is an increase of public patronage—a modest request when it is consid ered that it returns to each patron more than his money’s worth.
