Allen) From time to time there has been a great many ways proposed for the developemnt of this county, such as asking for appropriations large and small for clearing of logged off lands and getting the country in shape to produce as we all realize the rapid strides they are making in cutting off the timber and the revenue which comes from it will be less each year. Therefore it is up to the people of Columbia county to protect them selves from heavy taxes by putting every acre possible under cultivation of some sort, and the writer be lieves he can help solve the problem to a great extent and is in a posi tion trf do so .and will take up the different products that we are in terested in and will make a ready market for same as follows: Strawberries. In regard to strawberries there nre a great many varieties grown at the present time in the county, most all are saleable but the varieties that are in demand are the follow ing: For barreling, the Marshall and Improved Oregon; for canning, the Ettersburg 121, Wilson and Clark. If a grower will put in one to three acres for a start he will, the follow ing year, be able to plant from his own stock as many acres the mark- et will demand. Columbia county has the finest land that can be found anywhere in the Northwest that will produce strawberries, Any logged off land with a southern slope will produce good strawberries. They should be good healthy plants and planted in rows three by three and one-half feet apart to get the best results and the^ight amount of cultivation and should produce upward to two tons per acre and net the grower no less than three to four hundred dol lars per acre and as high as $500 per acre. All planting should be done in the fall for the best results, and good plants can be purchased any where in the county or through us. To make the above a success we are willing to contract with any grower for a term of five years and will take on, in any section or community in any part of the county, from 100 to 200 acres of strawberries to each sect’ori; and if the farmers are in earnest to clear up land and plant same as instructed above Columbia county will be one of the biggest berry producing counties in th« state —■ — " — Red Cuthbert Raspberries Beans, beets and other vegetables After they are through with the are getting in demand and large picking of strawberries along comes contracts are signed up every year.
