Lane comity extends from the summit of tho Cascades to the Paeitk Ocean. In i,e it is about the times as large as Khodt! Island or Connecticut. It fronts the Pacific a distance of thirty miles, wiili a splendid harbor at the city of Florence. It occupies every altitude j ):'!U the ocean beach to the glazier-; crowned summit of the "Throe Sister-)'' at the southeastern corner oi the county. Tli?. Coast Hani'.?' cuts it in two from rth to south. 'Line county is half prairie land, with verv rich soil producing abundant crops of grain, hav, fruit and vegetables, and half hill and upland. The table-lands bordering tlie valleys arc partly covered with timber or brush, ni---t t" it being ..pen enough for tine pasture. These lands are fertile and yW.i abundant crops when cultivated. Every crop that grows in the Wiliametto Valley gtows in Lane county. All the fa run arc sup plied from natural source with the best i water. The immense timber wealth, atxretfitins nearlv $.U03.,fcVJ.vH.H) feet, is just beginniug to receive attention. No county in theTnited States I. as as large an amount of timber as f.ane.

The following is a summary of the productions of Laae county for WOO: STOCK RAISING-, Lane county is fast Incoming one of the great cattle producing counties in the State. The mild wintcrs.the fact thnt native grasses reuiaiu green during tho year, and the ease with which cultivated grasses can bo raised make it an excel lent country for evcrv kind of Block. The general practice of Line county farmer is to provide fodder for only a small part of the year, during the bal ance of which the stock roam At large. Running water is Abundant, and stock does not lack water in the driest Reason. The largest ow ners of horned stock are improving greatly by infusing line blood into their herds. There ate numerous breeders of Shorthorns, Oulioways, Tolled Angus, Ayrshires, Hereford, llobtcins, IVvons, Alderneys and Jer seys in the Willamette. alley. The large introduction of tine bl'od into the cattle herds i.f this section has greatly increased their value and the rrotit of the business. tho Wendling plant., Tho main oiUces ol Hits company are m cum-iiv.
