OREGON

Below we give an extract from a
letter written by W. e. Alexander
Central Point Oregon, to his uncle O.
e. Alexander Of this city:
The climate
here IS fine and that Is the best part
of the country In my estimation. The
soil is very spotted, there is a gre +
deal Of POOR land. We used to think
the land In Kansas spotted but IT
does not begin to compare with Oregon
in that respect. The principle pro-
ducts of this yelley(the Rogue River
are fruit and alfalfa.
Some OF the land is fine. Any farm
part Of it may be fine for alfalfa and
the rest of 1T will not grow 1t at all
Those who know, are dispo' ed to tell
the truth, say that you must farm in
land one season In order to tell any
thing about It, and, from what have
seen 1 think that is about true. Th
is a great fruit cou ntry but land Is
very high. ItiS worth from 800 t.
1900 per acre. according to the improve
ments and some Of It, close to town is
worth more money. During the day
it Is very warm, but at night cold.
