Fru,t culture

Douglas county has long been noted for the
production Of grain and as stock region, and
il has also been an established fact that as a
fruit section it could not be surpassed. But
the lack Of market for the latter has proven q
serious drawback to orchardists. and many
orchards have been totally neglected, but with
the advent ofthe railroad, the extension Of the
transcontinental lines, and the development
of the mining regions Of Idaho and Montana
an extensive market IS beng rapidly developed
for the fruit OF all Oregon, and as consequence,
the Importance Of this source of revenue has
constantly increased.
Several persons along the richsandy bottoms
of the ryer adjacent Roseburg have gone ex-
tensiveIy into the cultivation Of the smaller
fruits. the luscious Strawberries, black berries
