In 1875 ho moved with his family to Cottage Grove, and for sorno tinio had chargo of tho llouring mills owned there by Hazolton & Gear MRS. A. P SIIULTZ. During his residence nt Cottage Grove Mr. Shultz mndu a trip east with his family, ho going as far nu his nativo homo in Europe, Ho thou moved to Canyonvlllo, in Douglas county, and in 1883 ho purchased the llouring mills at that place oiiod;i)y Murks A Walonburg. In 1892 tho family made another trip oast, remaining u year, taking in tho World's Fair ut Chicago, anil in 18DII returned to Oregon and settled at Jefferson, which place they have made their homo over bIuco, and probably will for all timu. Mr. ShulU's career hero as manager and owner of the Jefferson Flouring Mills is too well known to tho people to need any comment. It is only right, however, to state that Mr. Shultz has always been a staunch friend of tho to ad, and while he has prospered in it, ho has helped many another on life's Journey, as well as being the moans of developing tho surrounding country. Mr. Shnlt has made u signal sneccesa of ills ovory undertaking In life, and is Mia ply entitled to tho comfortable com petency he has m-quired by his energy and skill, and by tho loyal awistinee of his noble helpmate in life. May they long live to uujoy the comforts and privileges of thoir achievements, Is tho wish of their numerous friends, and it is s.ifo to predict that their name will long bo roiiiouiburoil and httld in estfcm by all whoso privilege it has bo-n to know them as neighbors and frifiids.

There are four general merchandise stores, one shoe store, two con fectionary stores, blacksmith shops, two good hotels, two churches, livery stables and in fact every line of business usually found represented In a live conntry town. For years Jefferson has had a well-conducted Jocal newspaper, the Jef ferson Review, edited by G. W- Humphrey, better known to everybody in Ma rlon county as the eenlal "Tip." Many fine prune orchards, hop yards, and wheat fields surround the town, and land ranees In i rice Irom $10 to $50 per acre, accorcine to Im provements and location. An edifice of which all Jeffersonitcs are prouJ Is an clccrant public school building, erected in 1899, It has all modern conveniences and would be a credit to a much larger town. This section is also noted for fine thoroughbred Jersey cattle, there be Ing owned here several of the finest herds to be found In the United States, and orders arc received from all parts of the country for these animals. Some of the finest Poland China and other varitlcsof hogs are also raised here, The principal Industry of the place is the flouring mills These were built about In 1865 by Jacob Conser, founder of the town of Jefferson, in 1886 Otto Shultz assumed charge of them, but retired In 1889 In favor of Grant & Darcndrcck, who In the winter of that year changed the mill from a stone to a roller mill, putting In the best and latest Improved machinery. The capacity of the mill Is 150 barrels, while the warehouses have a storage capacity of about 150,000 bushels. In 1894 Shultz Bros . A. F. and Otto. assumed control of the mill, and it remained in their hands until about May 21, 1901, when It was purchased by J. A. Aupperle, late of Iowa, Mr. Aup- perle took possession July 1, and has associated with him as a bsslncss part ner Otto Shultz, a practical miller of many years' experience, and the firm will be Aupperle & Shultz. The mill is run by water power, obtained by tapping the North Santiam about two miles southeast of this city. It requires only 150 horse-power to run the mills, though the power obtained is almost unlimited and would be ample to run a number of factories, a fact which Mr. Aupperle had in view when he purchased the property. Much business and residence property has changed hands in Jefferson within the past few months, being mostly purchased by Eastern people, and the town seems to be enjoying a steady, healthy growth. Talk of an electric light plant and a system of waterworks Is common, and these pros pects seem more than probable In the near future. Crops of all kinds never promised better and a prosperous lively fall Is anticipated by all. Sketches and Pictures of. Some Leading Citizens. Otto Hliull. was born fu Germany in 185'J, and camoto Amorica in 1881, ar riving in Oregon tho entno year. He started in to learn tho milling trado bo fore ho wiib 1-1 years of age, hi his nativo town, and has followed tho business over since, Ho began running tho Jcf foreor, mills in 1880, and has been identi fied with that work ovor since. He bought tho Farmers' Wurohouso, at Jufforson of tho lato li. F. Drake, of Saiom, in 1893, and is still tho ownor of tho same. He has now entered into business partner ship with Mr. Aupperle, and the mills and warehouse will be conducted jointly by those gentlemen. Mr. Shultz has OTTO SIIULTZ. made many friends bIiico coming to Jef ferson, and by hard work and clo'o at tention to business has prospered, as ho desorved.
