county is large, each year sees
thousands of new trees planted, and
while large percentage of them
are apples, many pears, plums,
prunes, cherries, ETC., are also being
put out, as we'll as all kinds of small
fruits. 1t is only question of a
short time when the country will
export this line of produce in large
quantities, as the mining districts of
Northern Idaho and British Column
bia offer one of the best markets in
the world for fruits.
Poultry raising is also bound to
come to the front, not only for the
reason of convenience of market, but
because this country is the natural
home of the fowl, and when given
proper care they return good profits.
STOCK RAISING
is not carried on here as extensively
as it is in some parts of the state,
but at the same time every facility
for the growing of stock on mod
crate scale is offered-the favor
able climate, the luxuriant and nu-
tritious grasses which abound in
the hills upon which a limited
amount of stock will range, feed
and fatten the year around. How
ever, there are a large number of
farmers turning their attention more
to blooded stock, there having been
the past season some 1000 head
shipped in from the East and dis
posed of in the immediate vicinity
of Pullman. The
NUMBERING INTERESTS
of the county are quite extensive.

ing country, and many substantial
brick blocks. Pullman is known
the country over for her schools.
The Washington Agricultural Coll
eye and School of Science, compris-
ing a number of mammoth brick
and stone structures-cuts of some
of the buildings being shown on the
end and grid pages of this paper-is
located here. They are now adding
the gymnasium and armory, as well
as chemistry building. There are
$50 acres of land in the college
farm and campus. The college re-
ceives $4,000 a year from the
United States, and the experiment
station SIS, 900 a year. 1t also re-
ceives appropriations from the
state. It's buildings and apparatus
are worth more than a quarter of a
million of dollars.
Pullman also has perfect system
of public schools, which are a great
pride to the city. The public school
building was erected at a cost of
5000 and is supplied with an
able corps of teachers.
The different religious denomi-
nations are represented by almost
every creed and sect. There are in
Pullman six handsome churches, all
with resident pastors, large mem
bership, and all enjoy good attend
ance.
Pullman has splendid fire protec-
ton, and while the fire department
is composed of volunteer companies,

nomination is represented in all
parts of the county, and the citizens
will compare favorably, morally,
socially and intellectually with the
oldest settled countries i'll the East.
And in the midst Of this great coun-
try, and the natu raj point from
which it draws its supplies and
markets its products, is the -four
ishing little city of
PULLMAN,
The city of schools, churches and
flowing wells, with population OF
1000 souls, and one of the most
beautiful and picturesque townsites
in the Northwest.
The original settler was d. G.
Mckenzie, and the first store was
started in the early SOS by Mr. O.
Stewart, and from that time until
the present the town has gradually
grown. During the panic of 1874

most worthy citizens were forced to
the wall, and times were hard and
all public and private improvements
ceased. Wheat even fell as low as
% cts. per bushel. In 1896 there
was all abundant crop, and wheat
went to 70 cts; better prices and
/ good crops continued each succeed
ing year. The mortgages were paid,
and again the effect of better prices
began to be felt in every line of in
dustry, and to-day Pullman is in a
flourishing condition; is supplied
with an electric light plant, water
works, a drainage and sanitary sys-
tenn, has her main streets partly
paved, has a telephone exchange
throughout the city and surround

THE PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS

1hE PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS
Of the county are wheat, oats, rye,
barley, flax, vegetables, natural and
cultivated grasses, fruit and live
stock. The crop in the early his
tory OF the country was principally
all wheat and is yet largely com
posed of that cereal, but each year
the crops are becoming more diver
sifed. While the export of wheat
is something enormous, the addi-
tional acreage of wheat does not COM
pare with the additional acreage of
land put into flax, oats, cultivated
grasses, barley and fruit each year.
THE SOIL
is rich, black loan of great depth
with clay subsoil; its great capac-
ity for holding moisture enables it
to produce enormous crops with very
little rain and without irrigation.
FRUIT GROWING
Is fast coming into prominence in
this section, and while the number

terspersed with occasional refresh
ing showers, making the climate
invigorating. The nights are al
ways cool and pleasant. The at
mosphere the year round is very
invigorating, inspiring one with en-
ergy, thrilling every pulsation,
frightening the intellect, and infus-
ing enterprise and ambition into ev-
cry part of the body.
Another industry we will mention
is
DAIRYING.
Whitman county, or the eastern
portion of it at least, is, in the writ
er's estimation, prominently a
dairying county. 1t aDounds with
an abundance of clear water, a world
of feed in both native and cultivated
grasses is supplied with ample
shade; and the mining camps of the
north furnish one of the best mar
kets on the continent.
For the benefit of those parties
who will receive copyof this paper
in the East, and who have an er-
roneous idea of the character of the
average Western inhabitant, we
will say that Whitman county is en-
tirely free from the rough class
which is supposed to form the prin-
cipal portion of the population OF
the West, and as an assurance that
this is not only community which
respects Law and Order, but en-
joys all the advantages of enlight-
ened civilization. Each community
has its churches and schools, and
almost every known religious de-

While there is not much of any
logging done i'll this county, nearly
all the logs from the great timber
regions of Northern Idaho are
sawed and manufactured into build
ing material in this county, the
most of which is RATED down the
Palouse river. Another of the re-
sources of Whitman county which
undoubtedly exists is
NATURAL, GAS AND PETROLEUM.
The surface showings in the nor
thern part of the county have in
duced Eastern capitalists to organize
a company for the purpose of Dor
ing for these products. The COM
pany has control of quite body OF
land, and are undoubtedly sure OF
success, as they have very carefully
prospected the ground before plac-
ing the machinery. One of the
greatest advantages of this county,
and that portion in the immediate
vicinity of Pullman i'll particular, is
the
CLIMATE.
Nature, in forming this portion
of the state, seemed to have had the
purpose in view of making a garden
spot of this part of the county.
East, west, north and south of this
particular section has no such eli
mate, which is acknowledged to
surpass that of not only any other
portion of the state, but any of the
northern or northwestern states.
Billiards are unknown, and in win
ter the thermometer seldom going
more than ten degrees below zero,
and then for only a few hours, or
days at most. The spring and fall

Incilent illustrative OF ne Gigantic
Dsats of the Day.
It seems latl. 20 believe even IL
these days Of gigantic fortunes that d
banking house would ignore the plac-
ing Of $3000 eco worth of cash and Sc
cGrities Gil the ground that they did
not deal with such small amounts.
Yet such seems to have been the case
in Wall street recently.
A Western man who had suddenly
grown rich came to New York and
thought he would place 100000 in
cash and $2,000,000 in good securities
in the hands of some standard bank
Ing firm for investment. Accordingly,
be sought the advice of a former
friend who went with him to the head
of al important Wall street firm, who
had often given him valuable bits Of
information.
He went to the head of the instit,l-
ton and said:
II have been to you many times for
Information. Now l am going to do
you little turn. A friend of mine
e-.as just come to town from the West
He has million dollars in cash and
TWO millions in securities which he
wishes to turn over to you to keof
and invest for him"
Well replied the banker, we ap-
preciate your confidence in US very
much, but I am forced to say that we

porations."

little boy had many fears lest her son
should take it. Sne had talked and
worried about it SO much that her boy
was almost afraid to leave her side.
One night after the little fellow had
been put to bed a donkey was being
driven past the house. and when right
In froct of the house he began with

With a shrek the little boy leaped

his voice: "The whooping cough is
