ties, the Tigris and the Nile, II is already
Fevident that the Yakima valley will soon
be the most populous agricultural district
In the northwest, and the most prosperous.
III anything may be accepted as proof Of
its superior advantages IL Is the fact that
the greatest progress in its reclamation
and settlement has been made during the
past two years, while all other schemes
have been depressed, and that this last
hard year has been the most prosper Gus
In it's history for town and county alike,
and one OF the most gratifying things
about 1t all 10 that the efforts and invest
ments OF the people engaged in this devel-
opment have been legitimately expended
in making land, not artiicially or specu-
latively more dear, but intrinsically more
valuable, and producing actual wealth
from 1t. If the price OF land has risen
more rapidly than in other parts OF the
northwest, II has not been through
schemes and conspiracies, If that is not
too harsh word to use, but through real
and permanent improvements, which
have ESSENTIALLY changed its condition and
converted 1t from a natural waste into
fields and gardens OF amazing fertility.
As citizen OF the state take great salts
faction in these results. They are hope
ful and inspiring. They are laudable in
the highest sense. II the man who makes
two blades Of grass grow where only one
grew before is a public benefactor, how
great should be the praise Of the men who
devoted their time and energies, their
faith and fortunes to the redemption Of
this valley?
The purpose Of this communication is
already sufficiently answered. perhaps,
for 1t was intended mainly to show that
many people on Puget Sound appreciate
what has been done in the Yakima valley,
and look upon it now as the most invit-
ing and promising section in the state. Ii
has produced better results this year than
any other section. and in the present gen.
eral condition of affairs it offers greater
hopes OF reward Tor labor and the invest
mtnt OF capital than any other large por-
ton OF the northwest. Its settlement, as
1t is now capable Of being settled within
year would add some twenty thousand
to the population of Washington, and in
creases the production Of supplies for this
and other parts of the state, which now
so largely come from other states, and
thus aid in the local accumulation Of
capital. Every town on Puget Sound
will be assisted and supported by the
growth of this valley, and I trust that
your paper, which is started to promote
its settlement and production, will meet
with the success which so worthy cause
deserves,

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that
is BY constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an infamed condition of the

When this tube is inflamed You havea
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,

Oregonians who talk so much about
hard times ought TO be put through the
pioneer PAGES for a short time. Forty or
fifty years ago money was curiosity
among the white settlers of the Pacific
northwest. Joe Meek, Oregon's first
delegate to congress, went to the national
capital on cayuse, and hustled on the
way for provisions. Money he had none,
but faith incalculable. Many Of the FAM
lilies snbsisted for weeks on boiled wheat
straight, with now and then variety in
venison and salmon. Yet many Of these
pioneers grew prosperous and rich through
their own unaided efforts. They had The
thrift and energy, and these applied to
the natural resources OF the country
brought wealth and comfort.--Ex.
