Tho arrival of tho railroad In this
city last spring brought no boom, but
still thoro has boon a steady move

uctoucr witnessed tno arrival ol a
number of farmers, who, seeing tho
future of tho Klamath country, In
vested In land and aro making prep
arations to take up tholr residence
o.i the holdings acquired. Besides the
steady Influx of Bohemians, which is
gottlng larger overy day.
During the last season between 30,
000 and 40,000 acres of land wero
Irrigated. The terming population of
tho Irrigated area wa nearly doub
led. Whllo this change hns been
taking place thoro has bcoii com
plaint of tho dull times. Lands have
advanced from $5 to $20 an acre In
tho last 12 months, but It Is almost
certain that tho values will go much
higher with tho approach of tho Ore
gon Trunk lino, which, In Its articles
of Incorporation, makes Klamath
Falls Its terminal point.
Last spring the Klamath Ad. com
pany compiled a directory of tho city
of Klamath Falls and Its additions
The statistics gathered sr wed that
the town had approximately 3000
people. SInco -lion nearly 100 houses
have been built and tho domnnd for

the past year tho Klamath country
has without any bluster bad nn un
precedented growth. The railroad
