OUR CLINATE.-The Uupqua valley
is without question the moat pleasant
climate on the Pacific slope surrounded
as it is cn all sides by mountain rang
es, we are not subject to the extremes
of heat and cold that pervades other
sections of our country. With our
gradual elevation from the sea and our
numerous small mountains and valleys
almost any desired altitude can be
found within the limits Of Douglas
county. Situated as we ale midway
between the wide Willamette on the
north and the Sacramento valley on the
south, our humidity and rain fall IS a
mean between the two. The cold wave
from the south which struck us last
week has passed on followed by the
gentle rain which has III its turn given
place to the glad sunshine, and here
we are IN mid winter in our shirt
sleeves with the green fields robed In
their cornet of flowers all around us
while our neighbor just across the Cal
apoois are shivering with cold, their
farms showed under, and on the south
of us they are suffering from u drouth.
