PORTLAND'S ACTIVITY
MAKES GOOD READING

The largest grain fleet ever assem-
bled on the Columbia river for Sep
tember loading is now receiving car

The largest grain dock in the world
is nearing completion in this city,
and the largest packing house plant
west of the Rocky mountains is well
under way i'm this city.
The amount Of railroad mileage
now under construction or definitely
planned for early construction in the
state is the largest in the history Of
Portland. The wheat crop has been
exceeded in size in the past years but
In no former season has there been
such a large amount Of the crop Of
the three states tributary to Portland
as at this time.
The building permits for the re-
mainder of the year promise to break
all former records, and real estate
win make similar good
showing. These are a few Of the
principal reasons why PortlanderS
