After ' hurriedly passing over the advantages otfertd us in Ida ho, to.be taken up more in detail later, we next come to the state of Oregon. The territory visited covered the east ern and western sections of the great state. Entering - at Ifuntington ami continuing northward to the state line, one passes through perhaps the great est wheat producing belt in the west, the yield per acre being unsurpassed. The topography of this part of the state is undulating. The soil is rich and very productive, and the climate temperate. Fruits of all kinds yield in abundance. The entire country is well settled, and is under a good state of cultivation. By leaving the railroad some dis tance, one can yet secure good farm land at moderate prices. A tract is of fered In 'this section of the state at a figure coming within our reach, and sufficient area can be secured to meet our requirements. As stated before, this is principally a wheat producing section! While there are large sheep interests in the interior, wheat forms the principal agricultural product. Large mining interests are also met, and are doing much towards enhancing the material interests of the state. The large wheat farms heretofore operated are gradually being reduced into smaller holdings; The country is well drained by numerous streams of pur est water. Good railroad facilities ex ist, being traversed by the Oregon Shoit Line and tributary branches over its entire extent: I shall not go into details as to sta tistical data, showing the annual pro duction of the various commodities, as that would take much time in prepar ing arid more space than can be al lotted for the purpose. Reliable in formation may be obtained on this subject by writing to Mr." A. L. Craig, at Portland, Oregon, who will take pleasure in providing any one with reliable data. , The state of Oregon presents several distinct climates, produced by the course of its mountain ranges and proximity to the sea. The country ly ing west of the Coast Range is very mild, has a heavy rainfall and is cov ered with dense forests of finest tim ber. Volumes might be written on the magnificent forests of Oregon alone. It' is necessary to personally see the mammoth trees of this region In order to form any idea as to their dimensions. There are single tree? which will cut as much lumber as can be produced from an acre of timber land In' eastern states. Besides enor mous quantity, the quality Vis of th-J best. Tree3 without a limb or blem ish two hundred feet in height and of large diameter are common. A great variety of native grasses abound in this balmy region, making it especial ly well adapted for dairying purposes. This portion of the state is as yet comparatively sparsely settled, but Is receiving more attention from the home-seeker, as railroads are being ex tended into Its vast forests. Those who have made their homes in this part of the state are well pleased, and are profuse in their praises. Cold is unknown, and flowers bloom the year round. The greater part of the coast country is undulating, developing into hills of considerable elevation as the mountain range on the east is ap proached. Much might be said favor able to tnis part or uregon, out as a location for our Home Makers there exist difficulties which would operate against success. It would require much hard labor to remove the timber, after which the greatest task of all would be encountered,; namely the removal of the monster stump3. True, the timber itself would produce a hand some profit above, the cost of the land, but for our large membership to un dertake its development presents too many hardships which are not encoun tered In other places with equal nat ural advantages. It is our aim to so locate our members that they can im mediately begin to enjoy the fruits of thejr labors, which cannot be done where the ground must first be cleared of heavy timber. In the latter case, it is the succeeding generations that usually reap the benefits of the toil of their predecessors. Crossing the Coast Range to the east, one comes into the great valley of the Willamette river. This valley is enclosed on the east by the Cascade Range, and is several hundred miles in length. .The soil varies, but on the whole is exceedingly productive. Fruita of the very finest quality are produced, and wheat, barley, oats, hops, etc., yield well. Dairying also p.lays an important part, and its prod ucts nna good markets. The entire valley from Portland to the headwa ters of the Willamette is well settled and under a high state of cultivation. Land prices range high for good loca tions. There are, however, large in dividual holdings which can be se cured at lower prices. The Home Makers Company has many offers of land in this valley, but as a rule not in large enough bodies. The rainfall is not so great as beyond the Coast Range, yet sufficient to make irriga tion unnecessary. Many thriving cit ies are found, and all the various man ufacturing industries are represented. A fine system of schools afford all ad vantages to be enjoyed in eastern states. Its citizens are enterprising and progressive, and extend a most hospitable hand to all newcomers. Going on further south and pass ing ove ranother range of mountains brings us into what is known as the Rogue river countr. This country re sembles the Willamette valley In many respects, differing perhaps 'somewhat In climatic conditions and rainfall the latter being heavier In the western portion. The settlement Is not qrite so dense, yet all choice locations are held at a fairly high price. Many populous towns and villages are found with the usual industries in a thriving condition. The natural markets for the products of this region are Port- i land and San Francisco, where much ") or it is exported. East of the Rogue river country lies a comparatively new country which will later on offer open- unavailable, reference is had in th i-aKe JSiamath country, which is as yet ' '' j
