""iTltorar zt!- you folks from? Oh,
Ptiw wsjsC'rjtrtim T My people used to
EV."JIti"Ti. ybir ooght to stop in Eu
gcsv. iQwr fceepo- There's lots of
PynyuinttaxaEuiri n there, and more a
wcusauj: cm nvory- train. We're talk
ing of forming a Pennsylvania asso
ciation there to work politics und
all that sort of thing; yon under
stand. I'm awful glad to meet you.
Can't you get a lay-over at Eugene
and let me show you around and in
troduce you to the live wires? I
keep my horse and bujrpy tied at thr
rack for the very purpose of holpini:
to make Pennsylvania people feel nt
home in EtiRcnc. I'll turn the riir
over to you to use nil day long, nnd
give you instructions where t6 drive
to get the best views and see the bot
orchards and gardens. I don't want
you to miss seeing my place. ItV
something like three-quarters of i
mile, more or loss, from the lower
end of the citv limits, nnd I think it'
the best place in Oregon. It's just
i wonderful what I can grow on myj
land. Why, there was one acre last 1
year that brcnipht me 040 bushels of '
potatoes, and I sold every one of
them for $1.40 per bushel. Just
think it over! One single acre nndi
640 bushels. They're not the kind ot I
potatoes you are used to. I had to !
cord most of them up in the car likp
stovewood, nnd one of them was so ,
big thnt I measured it to make sun
my eyes did not deceive me, and it
was more than 24 inches long. Just
report thnt to your friends when you
get hack east, will you? A potnto
24 inches long, nnd it weighed n
trifle more than 13 pounds. It don't
take many of thnt kind to make n
sackful. And carrots say, I had
quite n field of them, nnd I sold them
all for $7 per ton, nnd they yielded
nt tho rate of 80 totns per acre. '
That's going some, ain't it? I
could have sold ten times as many '
as I had for the same price, $7 per
l ton. You see, a single acre of our
wonderful land yields more in coin
' of the ronlm than a whole fnrm had:
in the states. It's only in the Wil
lamette valley, though, that you get
such crops. Here, closo to Eugene.
And berries say, you may think
you'vo seen berries, but I have a sin
!slo vino that came up from a seed
'in my doorynrd, nnd they hnvo nnrn-'
ed it tho 'E. J. Praser Wonderberry,'
,nnd last year from this ono vine i
it's two yenrs old now, I gathered
2000 pounds of homes a whole ton
j of berries from ono vino. How does
.that strike von? A whole ton, mind
you! And I was very caroful to get
the weights correct. Of course, they
kept on maturing until frost camo.
We don't hnvo much frost in Eugene,
but some seasons there is just
enough to mako the berries take n
rest for a short time.
"Now, I want you folks to keep
your eyes peeled when w get to Eu
gene, so you can see the best-lighted
citv in the west. We have such wa
ter power in our foothills und elec
tric light is so cheap that wo spread
ourselves on it. It's liko an Arab
ian Nights storv, the way we string
the electric lights overhead and
across the streets in Eugene. It looks
like throwing money nt the birds to
burn out globes that way, but we find
it economy. Tho wntor power would
go to wasto in some other way if wo
didn't illumiunte our city with it, ami
so we show the visitors n thing or
two about tho way to show up a city.
You just watch our lights."
And his geniality didn't run out
until ho had extolled Eugene t ili'
limit nnd belittled every other pari
of Oregon. The .MedTord ctti7.cn
shooed Morpheus away long enough
to enlighten tho PuiimnlviuiiaiiH (.s
