Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1889-08-31

On last Tuesday night Mrs. Reed
and her son, Add. Ezell, left for the East.
where Mrs Reed will remain for some
time in Montrose, Mo, and Add. will
attend college at Clinton, in the same
state. The trip will not be direct, how
ever, as they will make brief visits in
Walla Walla, Portland and San Francisco.
Mrs. Reed and Add. have made many
warm friends in Pullman who regret to
see them go, and Adds CHEEKY show
DE-do" and white hat) will be greatly
missed from our streets,-but he'll come
back, Pullman has its charms for Add.
The HERALD expected to be able to
announce in this issue that all of the
stock of the MIL Co. was subscribed, but
through some cause its expectation has
not been realized. $4,000 is yet re-
quired, and the question now is, shall
Pullman lose a mill for the lack of suf-
ficient enterprise to raise this amount?
In and around Pullman there are men
abundantly able to take the whole of
this amount if they were so inclined, yet
their names do not appear on the sub
scription list. If we lose this mill on
account of the failure to raise the bal
ance of the stock it will neither be to the
interest or the credit of those who failed
to take an interest in the enterprise.
There are several who have not yet been
seen regarding the matter and we yet
have faith that this community has suf-
feient enterprise to build the mill.
Farmers should plant trees. Every
body should plant trees. Trees are
beautiful, useful and nice thing to lie
under on hot summers day, and they
are also very good to burn in the winter
time. There may be something better
to burn than good clean wood, but we
have not been able to find it yet 1t
does not take long to raise a nice little
forest, and in the future, paying 81
ton for coal might be thing of the
past, with the farmer especially. There
is cottonwood, box elder and catalpa
which are easy to get and make an ex-
cellent growth, to say nothing Of fruit
trees. Every farmer should have an
orchard and a grove about his house, as
it not only makes the house warmer in
winter and cooler in summer, but it in
creases the value of the premises at least
twenty per cent. Commence this fall
and set out trees. It will pay you
well.-Ex.

descriptive of that region appears in the
magazine. In this number the West
