Development of Col. Co.
(By A. E. 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
