Of 1884 has been q memorable and mourn
fuI season.
When the people OF Oregon and WASH
ington remember that they do not suffer
frsm these fearful summer heats: do not
safer from tornadoes. cyclones or thunder
storms; do not suffer from billiards nor
severe cold In winter. they will probably
crumbs less about their climate. and find
less fault with our rainy season. Our
rains are never violent; never cold: SNOW

pears quickly; e IL q very severe winter
that can show record of thirty days Of
sound region OF Washington. Our climate
IN the Tinter Is as good as can be
found north Of Southern Georgia and
South Carolina or Southern Calitornia. and
in the summer IL Is Is good a. can be
found anywhere, for our days are never
opprsssively hot and our nights are always
cool. The average age Of the pioneers Of
Oregon and Washington attests the salu-
brify Of the climate. These pioneers had
lives Of hardship in their youth; their
food was not we'll cooked and their
habits were probably not ascstic. 70 SAP
the least, and yet what Gne, sturdy speci-
mems Of vigorous old age are found among
these Oregon and Washington pioneersl
On the whole. with our climate we ought
