The Dairying Industry.
Dairying in clatsop county is in its
infancy. and very few dairymen realize
the natural advantages Of this coun-
try. The climate. coupled with the pro-
ductiveness of the oil, makes It an ideal
district for production Of butter ami
cheese: dairymen are taking more In
terest In the breed and care Of stock.
With the genuine butter cow. sucA
as few here have as yet. much better
results may be obtained. though even
now the luxurient pasturage enables
the cows to furnish an abundance Of
rich milk, with more than an average
OF butter fat. A modern equipped
creamery Is in operation In Astoria,
furnishing the farmers ready sale
for their cream, at an average price fer
the year of 22ts cents per pound for
butter fat; and the cows yield, under
good care. about 225 pounds OF butter
fat per year. There is general inter.
est in increasing the dairy business;
many of the dairymen are preparing to
enlarge their herds. and new daries are
being started. Ever-growing grass
and the best market in the world make
this an inviting field for those who
understand the care Of cows.
All the Oregon coast country. espe-
cially that near the mouth Of the Co.
lumbia river, is very similar to the
great dairying sections of Europe. such
as Denmark, Holland and the Channel
Islands. The winters, however, are
milder and the summers dryer.
The lands best adapted to grass.
growing are the tidelands, which are
river bottoms adjoining the Colum.

the highest tides. These lands may be
reclaimed by diking. at an expense Of
about $40 per acre. BY dlking large
tracts by machinery-with steam
dredges-the expense may be reduced.
and more substantial dlkes erected. One
acre Of tideland has been shown to be
lample for keeping one COW the entire
year. There are stlll in Clatsop county
about 10000 acres Of tideland to be
diked, much Of It being easily cleared
after the dilxlng is done. This Is no
experiment, as many Of the best dairy
farms have been made on diked tide

Of those denominations. The Methodist
reported that the story had too dis

After the publishers had about de-

them as a ina' test to have II read By

Mills and Manufacturing.
Although manufacturing is as yet in
Its infancy in Astoria, more than $500
persons are employed in the institu-
tions now doing business here. The
salmon industry employs by far the
greatest number Of persons, but the
seasons extend over a period OF only
about six months. and at other times
those engaging in 1t follow other lines
of pursuit. The numbering industry,
including box factories, barrel factor
les, ETC., is rapidly assuming proper
tions, and will, within few years, out
rank the fishing interests.
Astoria wants more manufacturing
concerns, and offers the very best In
ducements to capitalists. Here are to
be found unexcelled sites. with the ad'
vantage OF both rail and water connec'
tions, and the intending investor In
western properties should look over the
Astoria situation. Sites can be secured

Salmon Industry.
Astoria owes its existence largely to
the great salmon industry OF which 1t

of fish. and In the past 25 years has
yielded SIS, 200. 900. nearly all of which

Astoria's Water System.
Astoria possesses a 100000 gravity
water system. which Is not equalled
In equipment by any other system in
the Pacific northwest. The water
works are operated by the municipal
government as represented by the
water commission. and constitute the
city's most valuable asset The water
Is brought from Bear creek. about 10
miles distant. which has Its source In
the mountains.
The reservoir Is situated on the pla.
teau back OF the city. where the sup
ply is regulated. The water system OF
Astoria is extensive enough to supply
the needs of 100000 people, besides af-
fording fire protection to all parts OF
