The population of Lane county is about 22,000, all white. The county is rapidly adding to iU population desir able immigrants from the Eastern States. Eugine, 14 miles south of J unc tion City, with a population of 5,000, is the countv seat. The following is a summary of the productions of Lane county for l'JOO : HORTICULTURE.

Lane county is fast becoming one of the great cattle producing counties in tho State. The mild winters.the fact that native grasses remain green during the year, and the ease with which cultivated grasses can be raised make it an excel lent country for every kind of stock. The mineral practice of Lane county farmers is to provide fodder for only a small part of the year, during the iai ance of which tho 6tock roam at larne Runninir water is abundant, and stock does not lack water in the driest Boason. The largest owners of liorned siock are improving greatly bv infusing fine blood into their herds. There are numerous breeders of bhorthorns. Oalloways, Foiled Angus, Ayrshires, Hereford, Holsteins, Pevons, Aldemeys aud Jer sevs in tho Willamette N alley. The large introduction of fino bl-od into the cattle herds of this section has greatly increased their value and me prom oi the business. TIIK ASCiOHA liOAT. During the past ten years a number of our active farmers have been introduc ing the Angora goat into Lane county, especially in the foot-bill country, Theso thrifty farmers had but one object in view at the time these goats were purchased, and that was to clear up their farms at small expense. They bought the goat for his work and not for bis wool. During the past five years, bow ever, theie has been a grat revolution in the goat industry. Manufacturers are beginning to discover the manr ad ..t.i. ami anoiMfil finalities of mohair. lonuivg .
