JJCOKOW A WILUVKD.
irnrlon county is situated in tin
heurt of the magnillcent Willuinutti1
vullcy, tho central gem in the clus
ter of rich cotintU'8 thut fonn that
princely domain, and Is the banner
connnonwealth of the creut north
west in all tho essentials that go to
wards making it aprolltable abiding
place, and a homo for tho thrifl
farmer, the cunning artisan and the
Industrious mechanic.
Rich In Its agricultural resources
in itu cultivated and uncultivated
innds, In Ita water powers, and
iiilnurub); rich in ita colleges and
schools of learning, and with a
climate unsurpassed for its salubrity,
it presents to the Immigrant from
the overcrowded slates, where cold
winters and hot summers, witli
terrible cyclones, prevail, who
cornea to tho coast with some
means, advantages that no other
countv In Orccon possesses.
Much lias been written of thif
western country thut requires u
stretch of tho imagination to com
prehend, and numerous complaints
tire heard from tho class who have
been misled by them, so in this
brief sketch tlie writer desires to
avoid exngeration as to ita present
and proBjiectlve advantages, asking
uioso n tno east into wnoso nanus
this may fall particularly those
who have their eyes dlrectea towards
this coost-to pcruso It carefully,
feeling that it Is not written to lure
immigrants within Its borders, but
only us n truthful discrlptlon of a
& IS ,,, ,. ianu which, 11 it uoes not, -now
i:.w p. in. iiuiK uuu uujiuy, ujuiuiiin wiiiuii
iw uosom weaun anu resources equai
to any other country on the Pacific
eiflo of tho Ilocky mountains.
ISOUNDAKIBa.
Marion county is bounded on the
north by tho Willamette river and
But to creek which separates it from
Clackamus county; on the east by
Clackumos county and tho Cascade
mountains, which separate it from
Wasco county; on tho south by tin
Santlnm river and tho north fork of
tho Suntiam, separating it from
Linn county .and on the west by the
Willamette river.
l'lIYBICAL FOHMATIOK.
Tho county contains, including
valley, prairie and mountain lands,
ubout 000,000 acres.
Thero are two main divisions, the
mountain and tho valley. The
latter extends from tho "Willamette
river to tho foot of tho Cascade
mountains, u distance of about fif
teen miles.
The mountainous portion contains
some fourteen townships of mohtlj
unsurveyed land; lying In n strip
twelve miles north und south bj
forty mllefl east ana west, una com
prises all clussea of land, from rich
narrow valleys in tho passes, up
through till tho grades of rolling,
hilly und broken, to that of rock
bouiid canyons mid inaccessible
craggy peaks. It Is generally heavily
timbered, und in tho near future
will bo viilunblo for Its lumber sui
plics. Tliese hills and mountains
afford u wonderful summer runge
for stock, und many of tho more en
terprising formers are availing them
selves of this opportunity, and when
tho cold frosts of autumn approach,
the stock uro brought out to fresh
pastures, thus enabling them to sur
vive tho whiter storms with little
euro.
C1IIKAT APVANTAQKS.
A decided advantage Marion coun
ty has over many others Is tho dl
vtirslllcd farming Interest thut can
bo curried on tnrought tho entire
year; notwithstbndlug this Is u wet
ellumto during tho winter months,
tho uplands uro seldom too wet to
work, und long before tho prairie
fanners uro through with their seed
lug, the hill farmer Is preparing for
his summer work. And yet tho
low lands uro much preferred by
ninny; tho yield per uoro Is generully
greater, anil jxirhaim less hibor Is re
quired to place tho soil In proper
condition for crops; und then should
tho season prove dry, tho bottom
lands uro sure to bring tho best
crop. No l letter farming land can
bo found In tho United States than
that oil tho noted Howell prairie.
Krcneh pnilrlo, Santlum prulrlo und
Salem prairie. Tho soil of these are
wonderfully productive. With gtKxl
cultivation, forty bushels of wlieut
and sixty of oata per acre can bo
readily securvil.
KAi'ii.rriKS von maiuckt.
Tho Wlllftinotto river, with two
lines of railroad running tho entire
length of the county from north to
mtith, with the Oregon l'aoltlo road
enwslug tho southeast corner of the
county, uttbrda ample ntciUtlet) to
reach a market in uuy direction.
HAI.KM
