To the Editor OF the Enterprise:
You will SEQ by these few lines tha. |
have made another move. landed at
Columbus. Wash. March Is. rented a
house and moved my family in. then |
pulled out to look for location. first
went 20 Lewiston. Idaho; liked It fairly
well there. but tho seasons are short and
land high. Tho farmers raise good wheat
and timothy hay, but the snow was two
feet deep the last OF March. went from
thoro 10 Yakima, Wash. and travelled all
over that region. That is a very good
country. with plenty Of sand. They build
tight board fences TO keep their farms
from blowing away when the wind blows
But they can raise most everything and
with good yiots. They have plenty Of
water to irrigat9 with. but the land 10
high priced. Tnon went to Goldendalc.
Wash. There is simply nothing thorc for
anybody. no: even work. The land Is Of
tho poorest. A man with small means
can't iiyo there for thore is nothing 70 live
on.
Thon made a trip to the willamette
Valley. Oregon. | found things looking
more prosperous. Here 1t looks like a
man with a little energy could make a
living This is q great fruit country.
PruneB are the main crop. all kinds Of
fruit doing fine except peaches and grapes.
English waInuts do well. This is also
quite hog country. Poultry does well
and is always d good price. The draw
back here is tho rain. The rainfall is IS
inches annually. Land is from Sl2 to
$50 and up an acre.
have moved hero and will try it a
year and see how things will pan out.
They tell me after the moss starts on my
back will be all right. find in my
travels that there is no place perfect
every country has its drawbacks. This
is the cheapest place to live have ever
found and wages as good as any place.
Ten or fifteen miles from here is plenty
Of game-bear, deer and elk.
North Yamhill is in great need Of can
ming factory. There is plenty of drying
establishments but no cannery.
This is what call lazy mans coun-
try. One can raise everything to live on
and that seems to be all they want. What
we want here is some good farmers, men
with energy and some push to them.
Any one liking California will like it here.
The rainfall here is probably little more
than in California. We are SO miles from
Portland, Oregon. Our son. Charlie c.
Denny, and family are with US. They
seem to be well pleased. E. E. Hampton
and family are here. well pleased and
think they have found the garden spot.
They have bought them neat little home.
