PRODUCTIVENESS The soil of Tillamook is unequalled for rich ness and depth. The prairies are of compara tively small area, but are excellent for grass, The rich bottem lands are however far richer and will produce any kind of crop desired, but are especially adapted to root crops. Potatoes beets, carrots, etc. yield enormous crops, while oats, clover, timothy and all kinds of grasses produce astouishing results. Wheat aud corn can be grown profitably, but the land is far more valuable for other purposes. The whole country is abundantly watered by rains and clear, never failing mountain streams, and ar tificial irrigation is unnecessary and unknown. HEX LT FULNESS. Owing to the above r.atued conditions Tilla mook County is one of the most healthf.il places on earth. Malaria is unknown and Dip- tlieria, Typhoid fever aud kiqdred diseases never occur where even the most ordinary care is taken to establish good sewage. Pneumonia is exceedingly rare and consumption, except in some cases that are brought here, is almost un known. RESOURCES. The resources ofTilamook county are num erous but consist mainly, in dairying and fish ing. Its magnificent forests of spruce, fir, larch, cedar and hemlock have been scarcely touched by the woodman’s axe, and, aside from the comparatively small amount of lumber shipped by the Nehalem mills and the Truckee Lumber company at Hobsonville, only enough lumber has been sawed for home consumption. Re cently, additional mills have been established in the county, and now Nehalem, Hobsonville Netarts and Tillamook all have mills that are engaged in shipping lumber to San Francisco, It is estimated that last years out put was as much as 20,000,000 feet. The Nehalem River and Tillamook Bay are excellent harbors and there is a splendid opening for new mills at both points. But the principal industry of the corn ty wil doubtless always be DAIRYING.
