Tillamook counts have tons of hay left
over from last year and are in a dilemma
to know where to store this year’s large
crop, it proves beyond a doubt that this
county is the dairyman’s paradise for
raising an abundance of feed for cattle atf
little cost. Very little feed was required
for dairy stock in Tillamook county last
year, for stock was pastured most of the
time, preferring that to being fed on hay.
Consequently dairymen have more hay
on hand than they know what to do
with, which, if this county had a railroad
or cheap water transportation, would
realize quite a large amount of money.
Perhaps people in the East would hardly
believe that the dairy herds in Tillamook
county are pastured nearly all the win
ter, but it is a fact, nevertheless.

Tillamook is booming, according to
Henry Huden and Captain W. H. H.
Cary, who are in the city from that
place. Mr. Cary says that the first elec
tric saw mill to be established on the
Coast, so far as he knows, has just been
completed near Hobsonville. Mr. Huden
is in the city securing a plant for a lath
ing and turning mill.
Mr. Cary is of the opinion that a rail
road would be an excellent thing for de
veloping Tillamook County, but he does
not believe the Tillamook people will
tumble over themselves in an effort to
secure one. In other words, they will
not give away anything to induce a rail
road to build. There is plenty of busi
ness there to merit any railroad build
ing, and the people think that should be
inducement enough.
Mr. Cary said the new electric mill
was completed and the first board sawed
just before he left on the steamer. Power
is obtained from a nearby waterfall to
run the dynamos. Everything is to be
of the most modern pattern, with a view
to making as little waste as possible.
Mr. Cary never smiled when he said he
understood trees were to be sawed by
means of a live electric wire. He could
not vouch for the truth of the statement,
but was certain it did not originate froi.'
