The editors of The Journal were
born and raised in Northeastern Iowa
which is justly called the garden spot
of that glorious state. We came TO
Oregon eleven years ago and after i'm
vestigation of the coast from Victoria
TO Sacramento, we located at the CEN
ter OF the willamette valley for the
following reasons: 1t is such a rich
farming region. with such a variety
OF money crops that no panic or failure
of any one crop or even several crops
can produce stagnation of business.
This has been thoroughly tested in the
last eleven years, when other sections
have been paralyzed by the business
depressions that swept over the
whole world but here no perceptible
disturbance was felt. The other fact
which alone ought to settle the point
in favor OF this section is the climate
with almost entire absence of heat and
cold that afiiicts people in every other
part of the country. The summer eli
mate is an Ideally perfect one, with
cool nights and just heat enough TO
ripen grain and fruit crops and yet

knows what that means. The best de-

in the Bible where the Lord told Moses
