of last week and of his trip to the Pacific coast and that his opinion was that the people of the west lived on climate and and I think his letter unfair to the people of the In the first I wish to say I was born and farmed 25 years in regard to the Wil lamette It has been a great record as a grain producing The Waldo hills are a part of the valley and hold a world record for yield of wheat per Our wheat averaged 32 per and sold in the field at 98c per Barley made 40 and was worth 75c per Oats averaged 60 and was offered 40c in the field for I helped thresh wheat that 40 acre fields averaged 50 and as high as 60 wheat per Also corn made 40 and 50 per acre Just look at the corn show in Oregon took some of the best I think this valley does raise better clover than Iowa and brings in the market to per As to fruit the Willamette valley raises Jogan black in fact all kinds of small Straw berries can be bought for 50c and pears usually at 60c 75c per As to prices on lumber one can see the difference on the upkeep of a Cedar shingles are 42 IS per 1000 that the best grade flooring to per 1000 barn lumber is to per 1000 rough lumber to per 1000 cedar posts ic to lOc A good crop of hops bring to per Also a good prune crop brings per As to wood costs from nothing to as high as SOc per In four years have never had to buy always had it given to There are plenty of trees here that cut 20 and 25 cords of wood each The a large tree will be 5 to 8 across the stump and 250 to 300 ft Now as to roads Iowa does not have roads at all to compare with Our mail carrier makes fhe trip every day in the year in a As to schools Oregon ha far better schools than the eastern Every rural school teaches the eight and ninth Oregon stands next to New York state in regard to number of So it does not look like all the west live on climate and The rainfall in Oregon is practically the same aa Iowa No irrigation and I wish to say crops here have paid just as well as the crops pay in the and we do not have hail to fear or lightning and wind storms have no terror for The nights are cool here in summer and one wants a night I want it understood I am no land Nor do I advise any one to sell land but I thought it no more than fair should you hear from both sides of the If this does not find the waste basket I may try and write sometime in regard to game and I am a brother of of your E 7 I would like to add further that the Willamette tf the proved farming countries I have ever seen and if McClintick should happen to be at any of these homes at meal time I do not think he should conclude that he would have to live on climate and Editors Note We want every one who is willing to get up on their hind feet and boost for their like Bassett has done in the above letter to know that we have done away with the waste basket idea We are mighty glad to see the man that IT IS CARELESS TO KEEP JEWELRY AND VALUABLE PAPERS IN THE HOUSE IT IS ALSO YOU MAY LOSE THEM FIRE MAY BURN THEM

the birth of a son to and Jack January was as the Review was misinformed We are sorry that this but our informa tion was from people who are usually it did not seem necessary to verify same It is just another case of rumors gaining strength and being repeated till they are accepted as KURDS CORNER Once in a while we hear some question raised whether union ism is a good we hear some one say that they believe the working men would be better off if there were no and that they injure That of course is a matter of personal but the writer carried a card from the time he was old until just a few years when he became an but he hopes that he can still be fair enough to be called a union man at As an employer we still believe that the union men can be depended upon to be fair to the boss if the boss is fair to But there is a greater thing than the wage question that the unions of American They represent brotherhood that protects and They insure that no matter where their member and if he is found with an uptodate union card in his pocket that he will not be buried at the expense of the taxpayers in a paupers but from a provided by his The nonunion man who has lost his and died penni less
