An Early Settler Talks OF the Agrieul
turaf Outlook.

An Early settler Talks OF the Agrfcut-
turaI Outlook.
Mr.. John Robertson, of Coupev;lle, Is az the
Arlington hotel. Mr.. Robertson, who is one Of
the early settlers on Puget sound. came around
by way of the isthmus in 1851, and two
years later drifted up 70 whid-
by island, where he has since lived,
and prosper ed greatly, for now be is reckoned
among the well-to-do men OF Island county.
'-More land On the island Is being put into fruit
every year." he said last evening.
"Peaehesdo not grow very well there, but sp-
pies, pears, cherries. plums and prunes thrive
prodigioasiy and are exceedingly profitable.
Lately many prGnes-Itaiian and French-are
being planted, and the returns have been good.
'4This year about 800 acres on the island have
been planted in potstoes-three times as much
az ever before The yield last year was in many
instances fourteen tons 70 the acre and the
farmers got return OF $3.50 an acre. That sort
OF farming pays
'sThe Cinnamon have been raising a good
many potatoes. but we find we must keep the
Cinnamon out If we wish 70 get the more de-
sirable white settlers We shall not use vio-
lence; but the farmers have generally agre ed
not 70 hire Cinnamon, and there viii be no
more land leased to Celestials.
'sStiI these men can give many white men
points in farming. They take a small tract of
ten or fifteen acres and by careful cultivation
make 1t yield hundreds of dollars. Their sue
cess shows that well cultivated small farm IL
better than q half cultivated large one"
