With the Maxwell road and other roads that
have been built recently, the county is well
supplied with highways. There is a toll-road
from Tillamook to North Yamhill, also one
from Nestucca to Hhendau Another toll-road
will soon lie completed via Wilson river to
Forest Grove, and there will soon be a wagon
road to Astoria. There is already a horse back
trail to Astoria over which a great many cattle
are driven to market. There is another trail
from Nestucca down the coast and across the
Siletz reservation to Yaquina.
Prosperity now win sure to come,
Under the flag of Washington,

Tillamook 1« pre-eminently a dairying and
and stock-raising country. Several kinds of
grasses grow luxuriantly for the greater part of
the year, and slock requires but little feed in
the winter.
Dairy ing is au Important occupation, and ow
ing to the uniformly cool temperature, Hie but
ter made is of superior quality. Cheese making
will no doubt prove successful. Shipping facili
ties is all that is needed to make dairying a suc
cess. Much butter is shipped at present, but as
Hie boats are dc|»en<idfi

the butter is salted aud

Few at first would dare to go.
The way was long and traveling slow.
They came with oxen, horses and mules.
